BUSINESS MEN OPPOSE
THIS NEAR-BEER SALOON
With Five Already Within Stone's Throw, Application
Is Made For One at 22 Decatur-St., and
Merchants Rise Up in Vigorous Protest.
The application of C.' A. Morris to
run n near-beer saloon at 22 Decatur
si. has aroused great opposition from
tlic business men of that section and
a petition has been tiled with the police
icmmlttee of council urging that the
license be not granted.
K Is the contention of the merchants
that already there are Jive saloons
v.ithin a stone’s throw of where the
."new place Is "sought,to he opened arid.
' that while no actual disorder may re
sult, the addition of one more 'drlnlf-
Ing place, of this character, will have
a bad moral effect upon that section
nml will retard the development of De-
r.itur-st., for which they have worked
so Industriously.
No Personal Feeling.
Those who oppose the granting of
the license state that they have no per
sonal feeling against Mr, Morris, and
that If anyone Is to be allowed to pper-
ste a beer salooif on that corner they
had just ns soon have him operate
it as anyone else, but they oppose the
Idea of another saloon altogether.
'IThls place Is Just across the street
from the Kimball house,” said a well-
known business man of Decatur-st.. In
speaking of the proposition. "It Is
situated altnost at the head of the
street and people In coming down to
trade with us will be compelled to pass
right by It. There are already five
saloons within a block of the place and
another place of this kind will serve
just that much more to drive away
the trade which we are trying to get.
"Ever since the state went dry we
liave.been jvorklng earnestly to build
atp the street and free It from the
"reputation It:has had. We have suc
ceeded Wonderfully In our efforts and
we feel that this license, If granted, will
be one step backward In the work wo
have undertaken and In which we have
made such satisfactory progress.”
Will Act Tuesday.
The police comnlfttee which haa the
application under consideration will
meet next Tuesday afternoon to con
sider It and at that time a delegation
of. business men will appear In an ef
fort to secure an adverse report upon it.
With' th£'business men In that sec
tion so strongly opposed to the license
and with so many of these places al
ready In the vicinity. It Is believed
the committee will report adversely
on the application.

In an opinion rendered to Governor

railroad. commissioner frqm the time
of his anpolntment until the decision
of the court Ik made, u nil therefore!
would draw his salary, as ft ctynmls-

Thus' It appears that should the
courts hold the matter for any .period
or appreciable length, Mr, Gray will
make enough money serving on the
board to pay the expenses of the liti
