Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1909-10-29

The brewing interests that are financ-
ing these new resorts do not seem to
be at all disturbed by the opposition
that is coming from citizens whose
property is involved and are proceed
ing with their arrangements as though
no ordinance existed that they are
bound to respect
Time for a Halt.
AS The Argus suggested last evening,
it is high time the brewing and liquor
interests of Rock Island were calling
halt in such disreputable activities.
There can be only one final result, and
they are the ones who will be the chief
sufferers.
While the word local was mis-
applied in speaking last night of the
brewery backing the move for
the reopening of the saloon at Eigh-,
teenth street and Fourth avenue, yet,
every concern that manufactures beer
sold in Rock Island should be held ac-I
countable for the saloons they back or
lease property to, and henceforth The
Argus proposes to give the name of
the brewery responsible for saloons
that are complained of as well as the
saloon owner.
It is expected that these matters will
have an airing at the meeting of the
city council next Monday evening.
