Annie M. Gartland, ' of West-port, still hopes to get a license for a saloon in her building in that tolvn. The County commissioners know, she hasn’t the slightest chance. The applicant, however, has employed cOunsel. ‘ The history of this case is unique. Originally, Timothy Dailey applied for a license in the Gartland building, and was opposed by a solid array of citizens who thought it an unsuitable place. Mrs. Gartland, of whom he intended to rent, assisted him with Her testimony, but the commissioners declared the place unsuitable. When the decision of the commis- sioners was announced on Dec. 1, Mr. Dailey partly gave notice that he would appeal to the courts, as provided by It was right here that his appeal went astray and he was unable to pros— law. ecute it. _ The law says that the appeal must be filed with the clerk of the court on the next return day following the day the commissioners give their decision, which in this instance would be Tues- day, Dec. 7 Mr. Dailey supposed that he had thirty days to file his appeal and he allowed the legal time to lapse. In order to get around this, however, those who were interested in securing the license in Saugatuck induced Mrs. Anna M. Gartland, the owner of the building where it was proposed to lo- cate the saloon, to make application. But here they fell up against another snag in the law. The section which coversthat point says that ‘ the county commissioners shall not grant a license to a person applying to sell in a place where it has already been refused. The law is man- datory and there is no getting around it. In this connection the commissioners thought they ought not even to receive an application from another person. It was argued by ’some that the appliCa- tion should be received and advertised and then formally. refused. The commissioners did not take this view of it but in order to be sure they asked their counsel, Paige & Carroll,to give them’ an opinion. The opinion was 'handed to the commissioners Monday morning and it sustains the position they took. Hereafter, unless some one takes the trouble to test the matter in the courts no application will be re- ceived within a year to sell liquor at a place which has already been pro- nounced unsuitable. AMUSEMENTS. My Friend From India. “My Friend from India,” one of the most laughable, if not the best farce comedy produced this season, will be the attraction at Hoyt’s to-night. The most notable scene in the whole pro- duction, the one which in itself would stamp the play with success, is the mirror scene in Act 2. The farce is clever from the very start and it is well done by a strong company. Mr. Scene From Boston. , Hon. E.

It was as-’ ex ted next that the fly’s feet exuded a. gum, but now the discovery is an- nounced that a tiny drop of water in— stead of gum, combined with capillary ittraction, affords the true answer to he problem.

Mr. Gage Think. Well 0! Monetary. » Commission’s Plan. \Vashmgton, Jail. 4.-The publica- é . tic'm. of the report of the ~Monetary' Commission yesterday created much- inteiest in W'ashlng'ton. A 1a1ge num- bei of Senators and members called at tlie' White HOuSe, and the President in- formally discussed the leport with some of them. While the Administra- tion has not recognized the commis- sion officially. the. President and the Cabinet have taken much interest in the work, and the former has. always gladly received any information 'or suggestions from it. He has talked with the various members in an infor-' mal way, and so has Secretary Gage. A copy of the report of the commis- sion was distributed among tie mem— bers of Congress in town Sunday, and all read it with interest. Some reser- vations were made in expressions re- gaiding the details of the report, but there seemed to be a. very general” im- pression among Republicans and gold Demomats that it presented a well- matured plan, worthy of serious con— sideration by Congress. Secretary Gage said: the report with great much profit. it proceeds “I have read interest and Avoiding abstract terms, in plain, our present financial weakness, and the remedies proposed are so clearly set forth'that all may understand. The reform measures recommended I" re- gard as well adapted to cure the ills from which we suffer and which threaten our future. I sincerely hope it will bear fruit in legislative action.” Representative Johnson, of Indiana, a member of the Committee on Bank— ing and Currency, said: “The report commends itself to my judgment in nearly all of its essential features. The declaration in favor of maintaining the gold standard is especially admira-- his. The enactment of ‘such a provis- ion as this into law by Congress just now would inspire renewed confidence in our financial integrity and ability, and insure us additional credit both at home and abroad. It is high time for us to quit dallying with the chimerical and dangerous theory of bimetallism, either national or international. “The legislation'proposed seems to me to be entirely practicable, and would, in my opinion, if enacted into law, retire the demand obligations of the Government at a minimum of cost and Withlout either shocking the busi- ness interests of the country or c611- tracting the currency. The emancipa- tion of the Treasury from the func- tions of a bank of issue, thus and oth- erwise sulficiently provided for in 'the report, is a most desirable and advan- tageous consummation. “I heartily indorse the suggestion that the issue of our paper currency be restricted to banks under national con- trol, and that the banks be permitted to issue circulating notes in part upon their assets, but am not. sure that the extent to which such issue is contem- plated is entirely safe and that ade-,_ quate provision is made for the securi- ty of bank depositors. these objections are well taken, they can easily be remedied without impair- ing' the utility of the plan“: The scheme will insure to the banks proper control over their loanable funds and at the. same time supply us with a pape1 cur- zeiicy which will th Only be perfect- 1v safe. but which will also possess the qualities of simplicity and elas- ticity.’ , ‘ lilondike Strike at Failure.
