TO License of the
Breweries.

Proposed city ordinances in conform
ity with the new state liquor law, en-
acted by the last legislature, will be
considered at tonight s session of the
city council An ordinance prescrlb-
ing the amounts that may be charged
for licenses under the new law may be
passed tonight. the ordinance having
been prepared 10y the license commit

Under the schedule Of license fees in
the proposed ordinance. the city Will
receive approximately the same reve'
nue. as it does at the present time. The
retail license will be the same as II Is
at the present time. $500 q year. The
wholesale license will be S4o0; club IL
cense, $500; and drug store license,
$500 No provision being made in the
new law for foreign brewers licenses,
the committee decided to tax them $400.
Under the old law brewcries were
taxed AT the rate of 10 cents barre!
on beer, but under the new state law
breweries must he licensed on a ca
pacltv basis. Under this provision the
tentative new ordinance provides that
hreweries with capacity of 5000 bar.
rels or less q year shall pay a license
of 5000; capacity of 5000 TO $4,000,
$4,000: $4,000 to $4,000, $4,000; So

$1,000. DistiIlerles under the proposed
ordinances must pay license of 5000
wear.
Another ordinance relating to the
district in which intoxicating liquor can
be sold under the terms of the new law
also is under consideration, but action
on this ordinance will be deferred un

Subtle Suggestions of Agents.

adjure her to tell the truth as she
remembered it. But on her journey
TO Washington she was constantly
surrounded by church advisers
and the effect OF their advice"
showed in the testimony that she
gave-a testimony that failed to prove
the known guilt OF the prophet.
For the Gcntiles, there had begun
a sort of reign Of terror" which
can be best summed up by an ac

called TO consider the situation and

nation with the desperate state OF
