THOMAS MURRAY
APPLICATION Up
Was Turned Down Tuesday
Night, Because Some Did
Not Want More Saloons
w WOULD LOCATE
ION THE D
This Brings up Question of
two Years ago When many
Things Were Said.

Whether OF not East Grand Forks
is to have more saloons than last year
will be determined at a special meet
ing of the council tonight. when final
action is taken on Thomas Murray's
application for q liquor license.
Gil Tuesday night, Mr.. Murray's appli-
cation was turned down. the vote
standing three to three. Aldermen
Nelson, Liston and Tessier voted
against granting the license. while AL
dern1cn Barlow, Culliton and Logan
favored it.
Those opposing the application took
the stand that they did not favor the
increase of the present number of sa-
looms.
MIR. Murray's application was for
the building recently vacated by Hans
Gaustad. He had already leased the
structure and installed some fixtures,
preparatory to opening for business.
Old Question Due for Revival.
The application of Skaren & Olson
and Ole Myroen. which arc yet to be
acted upon. also promise to develop
something interesting, inasmuch as
ate saloons in the buildings ION the
bridge" Skaren 4 Olson ask a per-
init to open a saloon in the old Reed
place. and Ole Myrben asks for a Ii
cense to engage in business in the
place formerly occupied by w. Rus
sell.
Owing to the fact that they had not
filed a years lease, they were denied
license to operate saloons in the
buildings have been sold to Charles
Reed. and he is to have them re-
modelled for saloon purposes, and con
s%equently Skaren e. Olson and Mr..
Myrben have had to look elsewhere
for structures.
When these applications are up for
final consideration. it is believed that
several skeletons will be dragged from
the closet and ratified. Two years
ago. the present council refused 10
grant licenses to engage in the liquor
business in. the buildings con the
bridge" This action was taken, after
Mayor O'Leary had vetoed an ordi.
nance excluding those structures from
b patrol limits.
Last year there were no applications
for licenses to engage in business in
those buildings.
One Change in Council.
When the licenses were refused
there. vas just n vote in favor OF
granting them . Pat Liston, the only
alderman who voted in favor Of the
licenses, still will be a member of the
council after January /. There will
be one change, however, in the al
%dcrlnanic body. G. A. Bydal will sue
coed Frank Tessier as alderman from
h Third ward, but whether or not
this will make m change in the
councils stand on the question re.
mains to be seen.
If skaren & Olson and Ole Myrben
do not get licenses. the way will he
opened up to give Mr.. Murray a Ii.
cense without increasing the number
Of saloons. The Murray question,
however. is to be finally disposed OF
tonight. while tho other applications
are not to be acted on until January 4,
