TO ENIOIN ST.L0Uls MAYOR
But City Executive Declares His In
tention to Sign Bill Killing Street
Car Franchise.

Despite threat of being enjoined,
Mayor Henry w. Kiel announced that
he would sign the ordinance which
was passed recently for the repeal OF
the 50-year franchise to the Southern
Traction Company to operate street
cars over the unfinished free bridge
and to build loop in the downtown
district of st. Louis. The house OF
delegates voted for the repeal 26 to l.
1t was repealed by the council early
in the week
The bill goes to the mayor for sigma
ture after it has been signed by the
speaker of the house Of delegates and
the president of the city council. The
special election on the 2 ga million
dollar bond issue to complete the
bridge will be held November 6. 1t Is
expected that the mayor will have
signed the bill by that time.
While this, more than anything else,
probably predicts the passage of the
bond issue, it will make virtually
worthless the $330,000 worth of the
traction company's bonds that Jeptha
d. Howse received for the passage OF
the franchise and which he lent to the
Observation-Disclosures Construction Com
pany which borrowed $1SO,OOO on the
bonds from the Lorimer bank.

AGAINST BLANKET BALLOT
State Supreme Court Decides the Orr
Measure Failed to Receive Ma
jority In House.

Jefferson City.-The Blanket Ballot
Law, enacted by the last legislature
has been declared invalid by the SUI
preme court. Ballots for the approach
ing November election will be printed
under the old law, which provided that
each party ticket should be printed
separately. The act of 1913 provided
for all the names of candidates appear
ing upon single sheet, each under
party heading.
Chief Justice T.amm filed the ruling
opinion of the court and it was con-
Cured in by Judge Walker, Judge Far
ris, Judge Bond and Judge Brown.
Judge Woodson and Judge Graves dis
sented.
The ruling will apply to every part
Of the state, as the Blanket Ballot
Law was general in it's scope. The
secretary of states office and the
clerk of the supreme court worked
late at night apprising election Off
cials generally of the invalidity of the
law and notifying them that ballots for
the approaching election must be
printed under the old law.

SIX RACE FOR Land
Last TiIlabIe Tract in Missouri
Goes to Owner of
Fastest Auto.
A SPRINGFIELD MAN WINS
Homestead in Christian County Had
Just Been Turned Back to
United States Government.

A spectacular race by six contest
ants for 100 acres of government land
fifteen miles east of Oldfield, Christian
county, was won by H. B. Wann, a
Springfield real estate dealer, when
he raced up to the United States land
office there in an automobile and made
affidavit that he had complied with
the federal requirements by personally
visiting the tract. He was permitted
to cash enter" the land at $l.25 an
acre. Wann said the land is worth
easily $40 an acre.
The land, which had been home
steaded, had just been relinquished.
Three men applied for plats of the
tract and left to inspect it, two going
by train and one afoot. Wann and
two others secured plats early the
next morning and each with his wit
nesses started in automobiles. Wann' s
high-powered machine soon distanced
his competitors. He met them again
several miles from the tract on his
way back to Springfield.
The round trip of 130 miles was
made in six hours, large part OF the
distance over roads that had never
been travelled by an automobile be

HARD BLOW FOR LID CLUBS
A Decision by State Supreme Court
Puts Them on Same Basis
as Saloons.

Jefferson City.--Clubs organized and
chartered as benevolent, social, relig-
ious and educational, cannot sell H.
quors to their own members, or to
anyone else. or even get dramshop
license, is the gist of an opinion filed
in the supreme court by Judge Walker
and concurred in by Judges Lamm,
Woodson, Ferris and Brown. Judge
Graves dissented, but did not file any
opinion.
The opinion was filed in the quo
warranto proceedings instituted last
spring by Circuit Attorney Harvey Of
st. Louis against the st. Louis and
Missouri Athletic clubs of that city
because they sold liquor to their mem
bers without having taken out dram
shop licenses, but provides in the
opinion that if the clubs in question
obey the law, their charters may
stand
The effect of this ruling will un-
doubtedly be to close thousands OF
| these clubs where members could pro-
| cure liquor after the dramshops were
| closed, and particularly so on Satur
day nights and Sundays and Sunday
nights.
