probable that Messrs Barnes and Ed Byrne would get there The city has had numerous offers for the springs in the past but they have always been rejected The gentlemen named certainly make a good offer

property be made OPENING STATE STREET The city engineers s report as to the amount of work necessary to open State street north from First North to the Capitol Capi-tol grounds shows that an immense

southern limits of the city some members of the city council suddenly waxed virtuous virtu-ous on Tuesday night and didnt want to grant a license to PaVry Co on Franklin avenue where they have already allowed one saloon to be established The three members who objected based their opposition opposi-tion en the ground that the saloon is to ben is i be-n the basement of the theatre on that street and tney have an idea that it is prpbably connected with the theatre by some mysterious hidden passages As a matter of fact nothing of the kind exists The cafe and the theatre are entirely separate and the only entrance to either is from the street and the two concerns are under different managements Reynolds and company com-pany have not violated a single pledge made to the council and while THE HERAID op posed the granting of a license it was grantedother saloons were alowed to bo established there and as Councilman Parsons Par-sons said it was like lke locking the stable after the horse was stolen to object to this A saloon is a bad institution anywhere but it is not qnite so bad Mr James on Franklin avenue ave-nue where it can bo under direct control of the police as it is at the Warm springs or i the western outskirts of the city where there ia no chance for police control Our glorious city council is not consistant A DEPUTY RECORDER Russell Wdodruff an eastern man is performing
