DENOUNC.ES SALOON. askan Declares Himself in Fa vor of County Option. In a gtateemnt given to the press, m. J. Bryan declared himself in 4-or of county option in Nebraska, d at the same time says it is time for political parties to declare them selves independent of the liquor k terests. Mr. Bryan says county op tion is both fair and logical, and in sists that the Government has the un 4oubted right to regulate the liquor traffic in. any manner it sees fit. Af ier extended argument in favor of the principle of county option the statement eomeludes: "The saloon-not everyone, but as a rule-is an alliance with vice. It s constantly used to debauch poli, iTQs and to prevent the intelligeat eonsideration of publie questions. The liquor interests interfere in) all matters that may even remotely af -Net their interests. They made 1themselves odius in the last session of the Nebraska Legislature. The Democrats had a majority in botb branches for the first time in the State's history, and the splendid record of the Legislature, has but one blot on it, and that ilet was put there by the liquor interests. They eotioed enough of the Senators to prevent the submission of the initia iive and referendum. --The Democratic party cannot af f;rd to act .as the moutpiece of the iquor interests. It can have nothing in. eommon with-the selfkh mercenary and conscieneeless crusade- that the liquor interests have organized against the home and . the State against private virtue and pblic morals."

The Senate o-day .ordered the injunction of the secrecy remov ed from allI of its records. in the case of Dr. Wiliam D. Crum.

Sloan, COUNCIL ADHERES TO FIRE TJMTTS RULES. (Continued from Page One.) Mr. James A. Burton. 'On motion of Alderman Rodel sperger a new are light was ordered placed in the corner of South and MSwain streets. A long felt want was met when it was determined to put a new light at the railroad crossing in Friend street. This is a much-used crossing, and it is really dangerous witliout a -light, and council is to be commend ed very strongly for ordering a light at this place. The City Finance Alderman Cannon, chairman of the finanee committee, made a re port as to the finances vf the town, stating that withiii the past several days two notes, one of $10,000 held by the Germania Savings bank, in Charleston, and another note of $3, 000, had been paid, the two notes aggregating in the neighborhood of $14,825. Mayor Blease said that on the 25th of;January Mr. Henry Schachte, president of the Germania Savings bank, had writtez -to the clerk,and treasurer asking if the town needed any money in addition to the $10,000 note held by the bank. Mayor Blease said that Mr. J. D. Davenport had also told him that the Germania -Savings bank had offered to let the town have $15,000 if it wanted it, at six per cent., and to carry the $10, 000 note. Mayor Blease said he had written. Mr. Schaehte, in response to these ofers from the bank, and ask ed him at what rate of interest he would carry the $10,000 note, or at whit rate he would carry $5,000 of it if the -town should pay the other half. He said that Mr. Schachte had replied that he would like to have the $10,000 note paid at maturity, and that next year he would consider the matter of lending the town more money. Mayor Blease said ,in reply to this letter he had sent Mr. Schachte % check for the note, and had written. that he could not under stand his sudden change of front, unless it was to batch somebody napping, and if this'was the case the mayor was glad that he had disap pointed him. For some reason, said the mayor, the notes were made pay able in Charleston, instead of at the Newberry banks, and this, he said, had cost the town thirteen dollars to send the money to Charleston. The correspondence between Mr. Schachte and the city authorities was submitted to council, as follows: President Schachte2s First Leiter. The Germania Savings Bank, of Charleston, S. C., *January 25, 1910. Mr. 0. L. Buzhardt, Clerk and Treasurer,. Newberry, S. C.. Dear Sir:-Will the Town need any money this year other than the $10,000, which you now have with us?
