THREE ORDINANCES
ON SALE OF LIQUOR
VETOED BY BOARD
Councils Plan to Increase Rev
enue and Regulate Traffic Is
Turned Down.
PROPOSED REGULATIONS
WOULD NET CITY $3.50
Council May Pass the Ordinances
Over the Boards Veto by a Four
Fifths Vote

The Board of Arfalrs sprang a SEN
sation at a special meeting Thursday
night by unanimously vetoing the
ordinances passed by the City Coun-
Gil on June 10 relative to the sale OF
intoxicating liquors in Martinsburg
The reasons for so doing were set
forth at length in a communication to
the City Council and which will be
read 10 that body at the next meeting
This unexpected action Of the
board came after City Recorder Lett
er had certified TO the board the three
ordinances regulating places where
intoxicating liquors are to be sold and
fixing the license tax or retailers and
on beer wholesalers.
The result of the flank movement
on the part of the Board of Affairs is
to go back to the old order of things
before the town went dry ON the LIST
of July, last-that is taxing retailers
$3.50 per annum and beer wholesalers
212 cents a barrel which used to
amount to from S25 to $50 each, be.
sides taking away from the mayor
the power to regulate the saloons, TN
less the City Council sees fit to ride
over the veto by a four-tifths vote
AS will be remembered the Council
recently granted licenses to seven ap-
plicants for the sale of liquors at re-
tail and beer warehouses. The tax
on the former was fixed at 800 eacE,
which would yield $4,000 year, while
the tax for wholesale beer dealers
was fixed at $3.50 or $3.50 for the three
warehouses. Under the old license
tax OF $3.50 the seven retail places
would bring into the city treasury but
s1750 and the wholesalers something
like a hundred dollars additional.
The members of the Board Of Al
fairs namely c. G. Cushwa, f. r. Sig
Ter and l.. II. Thompson, were all
present at the meeting. City Attor-
ney c. NJ. Seibert, City Recorder p.
w. Letter City Auditor Lee Siler and
City Engineer Henry Hess were also
present.
The board decided TO visit places
soon where requests have been mace
for extension OF water mains, namely,
Winchester, Porter and Tennessee
avenues and north Queen 10 Terrace
street, in order TO personally ascer-
tain the conditions in those sections.

Reeds, Majority 25,7s0.

Charleston W. Va, June 20.-That
West Virginia Republicans set a new
pace for getting out votes in a pri-
mary election is indicated b ythe Of
fetal returns which are being compil-
ed from the statewide primary held
June 4. With the returns compiled
from nearly every county 1t is esti-
mated that from SIS to So per cent of
the full Republican vote was polled.
The estimate is based upon the
vote for Secretary of State, which has
just been compiled by Secretary of
State Stuart F. Reed, from the Of
fetal returns from every county, Sec
rotary Reed received 64,763 votes
while his opponent, Mike II. King, re-
ceiyed 39,033, Reeds majority being
25,720. Taking this as a basis there
were 103,796 votes polled, but it is
known that the vote for governor viii
exceed this by several thousand. II
is estimated that from 10000 to $780,.
0Q0 persons participated in the pri
mary. So far the vote for Secretary
of State is the only one of which a
complete official compilation has been
made.

WANT APPLE EXHIBIT
AT CHICAGO LAND SHOW
Thomas +. Hahony, of the Chicago
Tribune, Visits Senator Silver in
Interest of Fruit Growers

INTEREST OF FFult OrOWerS
Mr., Thomas F. Mahony, of the Chi
cago Tribunte, spent Sunday in the
city, the guest of Senator and Mrs,
Gray Silver. The object of Mr. Ma
hony's visit was to interest the fruit
growers of this section to having ex-
hibits at the Chicago Land Show next
fall, which will be given under the
auspices of the Chicago Tribunte. Mr..
Mahoney believes that if the people
of Apple Pie Ridge will have exhibits
there, they will prove of great bene-
fit to them, and furnish them with a
good market for their products.
1t will be remembered that two
years ago. the York Imperial apples
from this section, took the sweep
stake prize at Council Bluff. Iowa, and
Mr.. Mahoney sees no good reason
why they should not do likewise at
Chicago. Mr. Mahoney will not visit
Martinsburg again in the interest of
the show, but other representatives
will come here later, and try to in
terest the horticulturists.
