licenses to sell liquor in restaurants.
The license fec for ~stauran sha
be one-half of the fee charged for sa-
looms. A restaurant, under this bill,
is a place where at least forty persons
may be seated at table and served
with food at one time. Tables shall
be at all times covered with table
clothes and there shall be a sufficient
number of chairs at the tables to seat
forty persons. No bar shall be per-
mitted in a restaurant, but drinks may
be served at the table. If a holder of
a restaurant license should wish to
change and conduct a saloon he could
do SO by exchanging his restaurant IL
cense for a regular license and paying
the difference in the price. This res
taurant feature of the bill is taken
from the German Alliance bill.
The bill limits the number of saloons
in any city or incorporated town to
one for each 500 inhabitants.
It is also provided that the passage
of the bill shall not in any manner af-
feet the Moore remonstrance law, nor
any remonstrance law that has already
been held to be valid. The bill also
says that it shall not affect the result
of any local option election already
held.
Brewers Not to Be Sn~IOOnkeepers.
One of the important feature of
the bill is that which prohibits brew
cry ownership or control of saloons.
There is a section which provides that
before a license may be issued the APP
plicant shall make fhdavit that he is
the only person pecuniarily interested
in the business for which the license
is asked, and that he neither has re-
ceived nor will receive directly or in
directly from any person, firm or cor
poration engaged in the manufacture
or sale of any articles sold or handled
in the applicants business any loan
or gift or any support, either in the
shape of money or of saloon fixtures
or furniture or payment of license fees,
and the property in which the business
is to be conducted, if not owned by him
is neither owned nor leased, directly OF
indirectly, by any such person, firm Oh
corporation. 1t is provided. however
that these provisions shall not apply
to any person applying for a license
within three years from the passage
of his act and being at the time Of
it's passage in possession of a license
and engaged in the sale of intoxicating
liquors These provisions are all taker
from the German Alliance bill.
VIII Not Affect Existing Places.
The provisions limiting saloons K
one for each 500 inhabitants would no.
apply to saloons in existence at thu
time Of the passage of the act. be
cause the number could not be reduced
without discriminating against some o
them. A law that would say that !
may have a license and that B, withou
cause, shall be refused a license. woul,
be unconstitutional.
The penalties for the violation Of tn,
law are made severe. For the first of
Tense the offender shall be fined from
SIS to 800. to which shau be added
suspension of the license for thirt
days.
