Chicago will become bankrupt II the

statement made to Nathan A. Cole
chairman of the Manufacturers and

Gr0sser. former city statistician. Mr..
Grosser said that, despite the argu.
ments that are to be submitted by the
"drys," the annual loss will be $S.'
100000 In saloon taxes alone. In addi'
tion to other revenue.
In his letter to Mr.. Cole, Statistician
Grosser says:
"The revenue from the liquor indus.
try for the year 1909 amounted to
1920, ,039.40. nearly One.third of the
entire corporate revenue for the year.
Should the city lose this revenue, one
of two things is possible. either to get
along without that amount or raise 1t
In some other way.
'The situation would be even more
serious than might appear at first
glance, for the amount collected for
the liquor industry goes into that part
of the corporate fund from which are
paid the ordinary expenses of the city.
which for 1909 amounted to $1S,2S9,.
O4S.76; SO that almost one.half of the
various functions and services would
have to be dropped II this amount
should be lost.
But there are only two ways out of
the dilemma--either to raise the
amount by special taxes or licenses
from other businesses, or by general
taxation OF all property within the
city.
Nearly all OF the business lines that
are subject to special taxation are now
licensed and yield at present less than
Qne-tenth OF the revenue from liquor
licenses. 1t seems entirely out of the
question to produce the amount In
this way.
There is one other way left. and

Chicago is the greatest cosmopolitan
city in the world, and the attempt to
make blue law town out of her will
end in utter failure.
The people of Chicago are for Per.

Chicago Is concerned.

The Ann Hizer Drys and Carrie Ma.

mined to drive all the saloons out of
Chicago have fled a petition with the
election commissioners asking that a
vote be taken on this subject at the
coming spring election.
The question TO be submitted will
be this:
"shall Chicago become anti.saloon
territory"
This includes the whole OF Chicago
and every day In the week. including
Sunday.
Edgewater, portions OF Hyde Park
and several other sections. to which
human tank lines run every night, are
now anti.saloon territory.
Everybody knows that, including
collection agencies. landlords Of the
fiat buildings, and last. but not least,
druggists.
Now the fanatical gang have decided
to embrace the whole city In their
grasp.
From this proposed embrace the
whole city will recoil.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
Edgewater Soaks and Hyde Park
Thirsts got valuable accession to
their ranks during the week In the
shape Of that noble organization, the
Cigar Stump Collectors Union, they
are not numerous enough to make an
impression outside Of a circus.
Most of the people who have given
aid and comfort to those petitions live
In Evanston and Oak Park, where the
colored population is large and the In.
fant population very small.
And people who live In Evanston
and Oak Park cannot vote In Chicago.
Mayor Busse is the hardest working
chief executive that Chicago has ever
had. and is the most accessible to the
people.
The Harvester Trust Is In the same
boat as the Standard OIL Company.
The same decision hits them both.

caressing ways, 1t seemed as Il It
possessed a certain sense of humor.
Says Eha:
'T used to take it's soft hand and
examine its pretty nails. Each hand
had one long, sharp claw. Such q
curious arrangement puzzled me, un-
til one day a flea showed me the use
Of that claw. It bit the lemur under
the ribs. I expect the little beast had
reason to be thankful that nature had
spared one toe when II promoted It to
the order Of fcur-handed animals.
There never was q more charming
pet. He took life so gayly. and the
antics were 80 original. When my man
let him out Of his cage in the morn

bedroom, look round with large eyes
brimming over with mild curiosity.

anime everything. Then he would

shoulders. handle my ears gently. won

That was beyond human endurance,
and would roll the little fellow into
ball. wind his long, fully tail about
him, and fing him into the bed. He
would be unwound in Q moment, and
would skip away to explore some
more.
His hind legs being longer than his
fore, he walked slowly. with his head
down; but when in a hurry he would
stand up and bound along like kan
garoo, tail in the air, arms extended
fingers spread, looking like nothing
one ever saw.
The servants regarded him as un
canny, and fed at his approach. Hs
would give chase. and there never
was finer sport than to see the fai
