All Wart to Stay.-Every saloon in
Davenport wants to continue in bust
ness. 135 applications being fled with
Clerk Hugo Moeller. or this number
there win be 81 eliminated by the pro-
visions of the new legislation which
makes the Moon law applicable to spe-
cial charter cities. This elimination
will take place before July /, as the
81 saloons will be forced out of bust
ness on that date. Each Of the 135
applications was accompanied by \ a
$500 certified check, as required. Dur
ing the past few days the Office Of
Clerk Moeller has been kept busy re-
ceiving the applications Of the saloon
owners OF the city who are anxious to
be one OF the fortunate 1O4 saloons
that VIII be permitted TO operate until
July of next year, when another allot-
ment OF 81 saloons will be forced to
omit. This will be the case the fol.
lowing year until the number has been
pFOportioned 20 one saloon for each
1.OO0 inhabitants. The city council has
been working on the problem OF Grad
icating the 81 saloons which will be
the first TO be affected by the new
law. but no definite action has yet
been taken. II is probable that sew
eral special sessions viii have TO be
held prior TO July in order to arrive
at a satisfactory understanding on
the matter. The saloon men are urg.
ing speedy action.
