BIG PROFITS FROM THEIR
MUNICIPAL SALOON

John {. knapp, mayor OF Sisse
ton. while in town last Friday. and
talking Of the saloon question in
his town, said that there are many
people Watching with considerable
interest the experiment of Sisseton
III granting licence to only one man
who is paid regular salary and
turns tine profits of the business
INTO the city treasury and the good
roads association, half and half.
" hile there are those who object
to the city going into the saloon
business, this is nothing more then
what the city does under the licence
system, with this difference in
favor of the Sisseton plan that in
stead OF the profits being divided
between the saloon keeper and the
city. the whole amount is tn ned
over to the public, and the bar
keecer sharing none Of the profits
has no II. .entive to push his trade
by selling doctored liquors, by sell
ing TO men already drunk, by selling
at forb dden hours and breaking
the laws in other ways, in fact his
position as bar keeper depends
upon his observance of the reuuire-
ments of the law. and there is no
personal gain or advantage to him
to violate the laws. city or state.
IT the saloon is a necessary evil and
men continually vote it upon the
community, the SissetOn plan is
better III every way than the private
ownership of the saloon under Il
license for personal profit of the
saloon keeper. If the saloon is
productive of evil, and this is not
disputed by intelligent people then
the public should receive any re-
mnneration the institution has to
offer for the evil that it produces.
Mr.. Knapp states that the indica-
tlons are from the receipts and ex-
pendltures of the Sisseton saloon
there will have been turned over
at the close of the year sOmething
like $40. 900 rs profits of the busi-
ness for city and good roads use

Fall River. Mass, July l3.-An active
demand was noted for cotton goods and
sales for the week will probably total
10000 pieces, OF which about 5000 pieces
were spots or nearby shipments Advices
which reached the New England markets
last week indicated that spot goods are
by no means plentiful among Southern
mills. The demand last week was largely
for wide and medium wide goods OF odd
constructions. narrow cloths have had
little business. On few lines conces-
sion of sixteenth OF a cent was given
but reductions are by no means general.

there is no doubt that business would be
