Ing legally sold within Its borders. The first city charter earned a proviso that alcoholic liquor should not be sold within the city limits and in the Intervening years this rule has not been broken. A recent mu nicipal election voted decisively against liquor and the council has refused to endorse applications for liquor selling in the city. A short time ago an agent of the 3tate department visited the city and Interviewed people here in regard to breaking this condition. His argument was that as the city is re ceiving money from the sale of li quor and is using it for relief purposes, it should do its share toward contributing to this fund by buying beer.

Without further notice and with out consent of the council a beer agency was established with the Monmouth pool hall from which beer is sold by the bottle with the restriction that it is nut to be open ed on the premises. All that is neces sary is to resort to another room close by and the beer may be consumed. This restriction is similar to that of California where restaurants operate alongside an Ice cream parlor or some similar establishment. There is an open door between, the waiter cannot pass through the door and buy beer for the customer but the customer can and does. A similar plan can be worked In Mon-mou if the state Is willing to aid in defying public sentiment.

A movement is under way to make an appeal to the governor and prob ably something will depend on the manner In which the local dispen sary is carried on.
