No saloons at Ashland.

ASHLAND. Neb., April 26-(Special)--
The new city officers consisting of Taft
Mayor; j. B. LaChappelle, clerk;
f. A. w~iggenham. treasurer; and b. r.
Clark. ]. A. Scott, Phil Folsom and W. 8.
Barbee, councilmen, will be inaugurated
at the end of the coming week. No
saloon licenses will be granted as the
city voted dry by direct vote upon the
saloon question irrespective of party
candidates. 1t is understood that pool
and billiard hall permits will be issued,
although there is a considerable senti-
ment against granting such permits. The
big factor in Ashland going dry at the
last election was the common fear of
the saloon in connection with large num-
beers of soldiers in the government and
state rifle ranges near the place during a
large portion of the year.

Ashland suit 90 BE Dismissed.

ASHLAND, Neb., April 26-tSpecial.) y
Attorneys for the city and the Buriing-
ton railway are now arranging a salts
factory agreement for dismissal OF the
suit brought by the city against the
Burlington two years ago. to compel the
opening OF the main street crossing over
the railways right-of-way. This is in
accordance with the expressed desire Of
the citizens who by a large majority
voted at the spring election to dismiss
the suit. The opening OF the new sill
yer street bridge and the building of the
silver street subway under it's right-of-
way by the Burlington has done away
with the necessity of opening the main
street grade crossing.

Oe7e1 The mleaseS in 1908 were fewer by
1896 than, they were in 1907 and less in
