Mayors To Ask Legislation.

That there is sure to be a deficit
in revenue that can not be made zap
by simple retrenchment in the vari-
Gus departments of city government
following the abolition Of saloons in
the state next July, and that the
mayors OF the state are seriously con
templating the preparation Of com
munication to the governor, was the
statement of Mayor Bedell This com
municat!on will probably take the
form OF recommendation for imme-
date legislation On the question. The
annual income from the saloons in
Charleston has been between $4,000
and 100000. To retrench to the limit
in every department Of the city gov
eminent, without actually Gripping
the departments, would still leave a
deficit of not less than $4,000 to
$4,000.
