person shall be granted license unless. he
be a citizen of the United States. can read

resident of the county.
Mr.. Hall moved to strike out this sec

found that out of Jos saloons only six were

that citizenship was a qualification for

Mr.. Black said there was enough law

there should be another book inserted.
Mr.. Black said that there was "a lot of

Mr.. Fernstrom thereupon came to the

|ENGLISHMEN WANT
TO SAVE DAYLIGHT
Proposition to Put Clocks Up Eighty
Minutes.
WOULD NEW YORK ADOPT PLAN {?
Parliamentary Committee Reports
That the Bill Would Give Business
Men . Gain Of One Hour and
Twenty Minutes Of Daylight Would
Benefit Employees.

London (By Cable).-The COM
mittee of the House of Commons to
which William Pearse's bill to save
daylight was referred amid roars of
laughter on March 26 reports, COM
mending that for scientific purposes
Greenwich mean time should be used I,
as heretofore. 1t considers the object
of the bill is desirable, as it would
benefit large class of the commune
ty. The measure, as submitted to
the committee, proposes that all
clocks In the United Kingdom shall
on certain date be advanced 80
minutes. thereby giving to business
men an immediate gain of hour
and 20 minutes of daylight.
The committee reports that the
weight of evidence submitted to- it
agrees with and supports the view
of the advocates of the measure.
Among other advantages, it would
benefit the physique in general and
the general health and welfare of
the people, lessen the use of saloons
and reduce the expenditure for arti-
fetal light, on which it is estimated
that workingmen would be saved 8
pence (18 cents) a week.
Answering objections, the commit
tee says that interference with Amer
ican business might be obviated with
out serious dislocation or loss. The
various interests affected could adapt
themselves to the alteration without
much initial difficulty.
The supporters of the bill include
many chambers of commerce, bor-
ough councils, railways representa-
tives of the manufacturing and shop
keeping classes, numerous associa-
tions for recreative purposes, school,
masters and others interested in the
education and welfare of children,
The majority of the newspapers are
in favor of the proposed change and
the postoffice authorities have declar-
ed that the business of the United
Kingdom with the colonies and the
United States easily could be accom-
modated with the proposals of the
bill. Although the London Stock
Exchange is hostile to the bill, the
Liverpool Stock Exchange is neutral
and is prepared to adopt the change
should the bill be passed. 1t is un-
derstood that an effort will be made

session, should it not be passed be-
fore the rising of the House in Aug

Mr.. Willet, who was the originator
of the scheme that Mr.. Pierce put
into the form of a bill, is perfectly
satisfied with the committees re-
port. He says that from conversa-
tions he has had with several Ameri-
cans he is convinced that the British
Parliament's acceptance of the bill
would have a very significant effect
upon the thought of the commercial
classes of New York. "If 1 were a
betting man. he said, II should say
there Is at least 2-to-1 chance in
favor of New York adopting the
idea"
