Quoting d municipal saloon, blu tho
wording of a petition asking that this
step be taken has defeated the plan
Eor this year. The petition. which was
signed by about 80 legal voters and
property holders of the town, was pre-
sented to the three city commissioners
with the request that they select a
manager for a municipal saloon, and
that license be granted in the regular
form, the business to be looked after
by the manager and a committee of
three and that the profits from the
municipal saloon be turned into the
city treasury. On advice of the city
attorney the city commissioners tabled
the petition. The form in which the
petition was drawn was questioned,
particularly that part in which the city
commissioners were to act with a com
mittee of three in selecting the man to
whom the license for the municipal
saloon should be issued.
