LIQUOR ORDINANCE
READY FOR PASSAGE
Paraphrase of State Law Is
in Hands of City Com
missioners.

Copies of the proposed liquor ordi-
nance drawn by the law department, at
the instigation of Mayor Park. were
distributed to the city commissioners
yesterday for their consideration. The
ordinance will be presented for the for
NAL consideration of the commission
within the next few days.
Since the supreme court decision was
handed down TO the effect that cities
should handle their own liquor viola
tlons without recourse to the county at
torney. that official has declined to han
die any more city cases and has served
notice upon the city to prepare to han
die its own cases hereafter. Conse-
quently, new ordinance embodying the
principles Of the state liquor law of
1911 IS necessary.
The ordinance now drawn is little
more than a paraphrase of the state
law, though some additional regulation
may be attempted. The copies pre-.
sentcd to the commissi ioners yesterday
by Mayor Park contained a provision
intended to limit the number Of saloons
to one for each thousand Of population.
A limit of l40 saloons is named for the
present, and it is proposed TO issue no
more licenses until the population of
the city has exceeded 100000.
Mayor Park explained last night, how
ever, that it was not intended to fix
the limit at exactly 40 now, but to
fix it in accordance with the exact num-
Der Of saloons in operation in the city
the day before the ordinance is passed
At present there are 1876 saloons hold
ing licenses, and it is probable that that
number will be fixed as the limit until
the city has exceeded the required pop
ulation of 1000 TO each saloon.

Drain to Europe.

Reviewing the national conditions.
we find grounds for both caution and
optimism, The drain of money to Eu-
rope to finance wars and preparations
for war has helped to tighten the
money market in this country, and the
European situation is still somewhat
uncertain. In America, tariff legisla-
ton is pending. which always causes
business to hesitate. Prospective cur
rency legislation Is also d matter OF
vital concern. 1t is to be hoped this
matter will be settled on broad, patri-
otic lines and not in partisan man
ner, 1t is conceded that the United

mercial securities available under

necessity for boarding individual bank

control of the banking system should
have beneficial effect on business.
dency on the part of banks all over
the country to draw In their money
and prepare for heavy demands about
crop movement time. The fact that
prepar ra tions are being made we'll
ahead, and that the secretary OF the
treasury has announced that he has
$500. 600. 600 OF emergency currency
ready will help to avoid any serious
stringency this fall.
The final settlement of the Union

government and the courts was q
source of general uneasiness.
