Only One Concern Asks Ii
cense-Fifteen Day Period
Looming Up

For the eason that East Grand
Forks is the only city In Minnesota
that requires a Wholesale liquor license
at any price, the entire state is watch
ments that are promised to take shape
rapidly when the ordinance goes. into
effect, Friday. March l.
The ordinance which II lived up to
in East Grand Forks will bring into
the city treasury an additional $l5..
600, and which may also be the means
Of putting some wholesale liquor
agencies out Of the running, was
passed last December.
The ordinance will not only affect
persons engaged in selling beer but
also the wholesalers engaged In sell.
ing wines and liquors.
OF the wholesalers in East Grand
Forks. the East Grand Forks Brew
ing company is the only concern that
has thus far applied for q license. The
application was before the city coun-
Gil Monday night and was granted.
What stand b other wholesale
concerns propose to take in the mat
ter is conjectural. Interesting de-
velopments are expected al some Of
the agencies that will be affected by
the new ordinance are branches of the
largest breweries in the world and it
is hardly to be believed that these

The ordinance provides hat notice

two successive weeks. This means
granted before March Is in case the
first publication is in the official paper

Provided the East Grand Forks
Brewing company pay the required
$1,000 on or before Friday, it will be
the only licensed wholesale liquor con-
Germ in the city. All the other whole

Friday. -.
Present Indications. however, point
to the fact that all the wholesalers
on n east side will attempt to sell
without a license in an effort to test
the strength of the new ordinance.
A maximum fine of 800 for each
and every offense is provided.

material selected by the property own
ers. :
East Grand Forks has no paving at
the present time and that to be laid
will be on DeMers avenue. the prin-

BRIEF RESPITE
IN COAL STRIKE
Miners Will Continue in
Their Efforts to Secure
an Adjustment

London, Feb. 2S.-The British min
ers' federation after a long and stormy
meeting this morning, passed a reso-
luton deciding to continue the nego-
tiations with mine owners under the
auspices of the government, with a
view to bringing about a settlement
of the dispute.
Some of the miners delegates were
bent on war. especially the repre-
~sentatives of the colleries in south
Wales. but the executive committees
succeeded In inducing the meeting to
make a further effort for peace.
Between 10000 and 10000 miners
In Derbyshire and Nottfnghamshire
ceased work Yesterday. in accordance
with notices previously given. and it is
now quite evident that as the time
pLres. the mel will lay down their
tools and await the action Of the min
ers' federation. w..
Whatever progress has been made
In the negotiations they ut least have
not advanced to that stage where II
is advisable that the members of the
cabinet and the representatives of the
owners and the miners should meet
together. 1t had previously been ex-
held this afternoon. The position OF
the miners representatives Is much
simpler than that Of the owners rep
r~esentatives. The former are auth
orized by the National Miners FEEDER
alton practically to present the ulti-
matum: "A national minimum wage
or a national strike"
: Until the owners are persuaded ia
concede the minimum wage principle
1t is obvious that nothing can be &C.
complished by bringing the dispu-
tants together. From the fact that
this has not been done It is inferred
that the cabinet has not succeeded in
inducing the owners. Welsh as well al
English. to make that concession.
That the sanRuine expectations,
widely held. Of ultimate success. are
not yet altogether justified, is shown
by the answer given by James Has
lam, member Of parliament and lead
er Of the Derbyahire miners who at
tended the conference to interview.
