Eight Hours for British Miners.

London, July 1.-The law limit
ing the workday for miners to eight
hours came into operation today.
The passage of the was a
notable victory for the miners or
%ganization. 1t was strongly opposed
by the mine owners, who argued that
it would mean a serious limitation
of output, and would consequently
react on not only the British man
,u!facturing industries, but further
would be a serious blow to British
shipping interests.

1T MEANS TWO LESS
BY Close Vote Council Decides
to Issue No More Licenses
For Xear


ing law for a year, at least.
The nine purveyors Of intoxicants
received their permits without a dis
senting vote except Charles A. Bar
ker. who keeps the saloon under the
United States land Office. When
Mayor Wood announced that Mr.
Barker had complied with all the
formalities Of the law in asking
permission to sell intoxicating liquor,
including the license fee of $500 to
the county and 5000 to the city. he
asked II anyone desired to be heard
on the granting of the license to Mr..
Barker. Wev. Hayden R. Upton,
pastor OF the Presbyterian church
said: "The location of Mr.. Barker's
saloon Is not In accordance with the
law. 1t is SO located that it Is inn
possible to see the whole interior Of
the room from the outside windows.
As ! understand 1t this is one Of the
requirements OF the law. MI. Bar
ker's saloon, I am told, is the only
n In the state Of South Dakota
similarly located"
Alderman Edward Allen asked
Mayor Wood to give his opinion ON
the meaning Of the statute. The
mayor read the statute. hut did not
give his Interpretation Of how 1t
should be construed, so Alderman
Allen moved that the petition be re-
jected. His motion was lost, all
voting IN favor Of granting the
license except Mr.. Allen.
In the case Of all Of the other
applications either Alderman Pascoe
or Alderman Thomson moved or
seconded their adoption, except in
the case Of the Pascoe Hotel Com
pany, when Alderman Dilger. made
the motion In this instance.
The other licenses issued were to

tel Company and Schleuning & Co.
The proprietors Of the Last
Chance" Charles Handy and R. G.
Rosenberger. and John Imley. who
keeps a saloon near the "Last
Chance" failed to put up the money
for their licenses and so none were
issued to them.
Rev. 9. ID. Royse, pastor Of the
Methodist church. was present and
made q logical plea that the present
saloon law be enforced and that the
number Of saloons be kept down.
