MAYOR SUPPORTS
PROTEST AGAINST
SALOON LICENSES

The meeting of the board OF alder
men tonight probably will be well
attended, as the saloon license will
be up for consideration and an expert
from st. Louis will talk about tar
and gravel streets. The aldermen de-
sire a representative gathering of
citizens to hear this discussion. II is
probable that Jefferson street. Broad
way aud Fountain avenue may be
used for an experiment.
Complaints are filed against four
saloons. two of them on the north
side, where citizens are trying to get
rid OF disorderly houses, and the
others in the vicinity of Ninth street
and Kentucky avenue. Mayor Smith
frankly declares himself in favor of
feeding the complaints. lie said:
"Out of 10 applications citizens have
complained of four and have given
reasons. | thing the solemn petition
of respectable citizens regarding
affairs in the immediate neighbor-
hood of their homes should be re-
spected.

No Reduced Rates.

At a meeting or the X. T NJ. last
night Il was discovered that the Hill
nols Central railroad had not granted
any reduced rate for visitors to at
tend the meeting in Paducah. While
in session a long distance telephone
message was received from Dyersburg
that the Illinois Central refused a
special rate TO 70 persons, but most
of the travelling men and their fami-
lies will attend anyhow. At Jackson
Tenn, the railroad was asked for
rates on special coaches, II is said,
but no reply was ever made. Three
months ago the members of the ex-
ecutlve committee secured permission
from the interstate commerce com
mission for the railroads to make the
special rate. but the Illinois Central
did not respond. Low rate excursions
are advertised to St. Louis and Louis
Vile, and why the low rate should not
be granted TO Paducah has not been
learned. All of the local officials did
their best in trying to get the rate.
