OF PETITIONS BE.
GINS SATURDAY - CLAIM
ABOUT 800 SIGNATURES
HANSEN, SALOONISTS'
MANAGER, HOPEFUL
Says He Has Found More Business
Men Willing to Sign Than He Had
Expected - Saioonists Arc Handling
Most of the Petitions-hanson Issues
Statement.

The actual fight of the saloon Gin
terests' of the city to continue their
business after July l by the circulat-
ing OF mulct petitions Of consent is on,
and has been since Saturday morning.
Just what results have been accom-
plished it could not be learned today
Even ]. c. Hansen, who is managing
the saloon campaign. declined this
morning TO say just how many sigma
lures were secured the first day
He admitted, when reporter asked
him if 500 had been secured. that that
number was not far wrong, but that
the actual number was more than that.
Twenty Five Petitions Out.
Mr.. Hansen said that about twenty
five petitions were out. Most of them
are in the hands of saloonists or sa-
loon employ ees. Some few have, so
far been employed to circulate the pc
titiors.
When Hansen was told that as the
circulating Of the petitions was begun
on April l the law would require that
the work be completed within the
month. he said that he did not expect
it 10 take that long. LAS a matter Of
fact" he said, Il leave on April 90 and
we expect to have the petition filed by
that time"
Business Men Seem Willing.
According to Hansen ne has found
business men more willing to sign
than he expected. When asked for
statement regarding the situation
he dictated the following:
Il certainly did not expect to find
the business interests Of this town 50
willing TO sign the petition Of consent
as they did the first day. The bust
ness interest of AIarshalltown does
most surely believe that this town
without saloons would be a great loser
both in a business and moral way. 1t
is true, of course, that g. large proper
ton of the middle class Of people are
undecided in regard to signing, and
the signing from this class Of people
is not just what we expected. We seem
TO he getting a reasonable proportion
of the laboring people to sign How
ever, having solicited names but one
day, am not in position to say"
Ii it is a fact that 800 or more
signed the petitions SATURDAY such
fact does Tot indicate any landslide to
the saloons. 1t will be recalled that
the anti saloon forces secured 700
SIGNATURES the first day AZ headquar-
tiers by only announcing that the Pc
titioE: would be there to be signed,
and with scarcely any soliciting being
done.
