MINNEAPOLIS BREWERS MAY BE
COMPELLED TO RELlNQUISH
SALOON OWNERSHIP.

Owing 10 the abuses which have
grown up from the ownership of a
large part of the saloons of Minneap-
oils by the brewers. the attorney gen
eral of the state, A T Young, has put
1t up to the brewers that he proposes
TO cut down the number of saloons
in Minneapolis two-thlrds and take
their ownership out of the hands of
the brewerles entirely The breweries,
according to their general custom
everywhere. where allowed to do so,
have been in the habit of supplying
the building, the license and the stock
for saloons run BY irresponsible par
ties. whose only stake in the matter
is TO pay for their beer and get as
mucn cash out as possible. Hence an
amount of lawlessness and crime con-
nected with running the saloons that
General Young thinks can be Obviated
by cutting their number down and pre-
venting brewerieS from owning sa-
looms. making each place individually
responsible for It's own conduct.
The brewerleS have ten days where
in to consider the situation. They are
exceedingly loatn to withdraw from
the retail business. but it Is evident
that they will have to yield some

be solved was how TO cross the
Missouri river. The main line Of
the road was built to . point with

became necessary to find a site for
a huge steel bridge, structure
strong enough to defy the caprices
of the Big Muddy. Surveyors
went to work and examined the

many miles before they found the
ideal place When that matter

BIG STICK SWUNG
ON GAME HOGS

WASHINGTON, May 6.-While
ex-President Roosevelt Is engaged
In shooting up" Africa, he may,
between times, reflect contentedly
on the fact that during his seven
years administration he made the
operation of the American game
hob increasingly difficult, The big
stick was against the game hogs
aud against the commercial hunter
of birds for millinery.
II was with the latter idea in
mind that during his occupancy Of
the white house Roosevelt created
25 reservations for the protection
of native birds. Seventeen of these
embrace the reservoir sites already
reserved by the United States rec,
lamation service. one in Arizona,
one In California, two in Idaho. one
In Montana two In New Mexico,
one in Oregon. one in South Da-
kota, one In Utah, five in Washing.
ton and two In Wyoming.
