HOME RULE BILL ON LIQUOR
WINS COUNCIL VICTORY

WINS COUNCIL VICTORY
Personal liberty won a victory
today when the city council judiciary
passed a resolution recommending
home rule for Chicago on the liquor
question. The resolution now goes
to the council for passage.
Under the rule each city, village
and town in the state is to be given
control of its liquor problem. A wet
and dry referendum would be placed
on the ballot on a petition of Is per
cent of the voters.
Arthur BUTTage Farwell, Dr. E. J.
Davis and Aid. Buck led the fight
against the passage Of the resolution.
Buck and Farwel believed that if the
home rule bill was passed it would
endanger- the contract between the
city of Chicago and the old town Of
Hyde Park, under which Hyde Park
was given the right to remain dry
when it Joined Chicago.
Aid. COughlin denounced FarWeH
and Davis as paid refOrmers Of the
type who would next try to take
away our cigars and cigarettes, if
they managed to take our drinks"
DR.. AdOlph Weiner, United Societies,
made a similar attack.
The vote: For, COughlin, Norris,
Rodriguez, Powers, Miller, Walker,
Hrubec and Bauler; against, Buck
and Werner.

Appeals to New York Union
Members to Enroll.

NEW YORK, March 1.-Drawing
room language was not In the vocao-
ulary Of Lieut.. Com. John II. Bar
nard of the United States Naval Re
serve and stationed at the New York
navy yard, when he addressed the
members of the Eccentric Firemen's
Union No. sc yesterday, urging them
to enroll in the service.
1--WE had a h-of a mess IN '9S, and
we are going to another If We don't
get ready in time" he told the labor
men. I'VE are not adequately pre-
pared, and in 1898 the same condi-
ton existed. We were told we
would be licked. The men went
forth to enlist with the idea they
were defending Uncle Sam, and 1t
would be the same whether they got
licked or not
Now the seas are not safe. and it
is up to us to make them safe so far
as Americans are concerned-not tina
we want to mix In Quarrels Of the
other nations. Their quSrreI Is hot
our quarrel But il the time comes
that Americans are not safe on the
seas, l do not want to sit idly on
the beach.
Inc desire OF the department Is 70
take you men in at the highest grade
you are capable OF filling. II doesn't
want to put in the firing line a man
who can scramble up a telephone
pole like a monkey, but isn't able to
hit a flock of barns, nor does 1t want
to put a good shot climbing a tele-
graph pole he can hardly ascend with
the aid Of a derrick"
The commander explained that af-
ter a comparatively short term the
men would be able to get not only
the So a year allowed, but would
get two months pay as well, simply
for letting the Government know
they were prepared.
