thunder clouds, of making themselves new Eighth ward. The wrath of many of the citizens is great and a minature explosion 1 threatened at any time unless the city council, at its next meeting, makes the Eighth a "dry" ward, as was asked for In the original petitions sent to the city fathers some time ago. asking for tho division of the old (Seventh ward into two. II is claimed that when City Attorney Study framed the city ordinance, giving birth to the new Eighth wnrd, he omitted om of the most Important clauses In tho original petition. The clause which. Is near precipitating a rebellion. real that the new ward should be strictly "dry," being only a rehldence section. Now, in order to protect the w-.nl against the encronchments of the liquor interests, the Rev. O. S. Harrison of the Third M. K. church, in company with a few others, are circulating a petition In the ward asking that the new "principality" be made "dry". Dry as a sun burned bone, the minister and his colleagues would have It. These petitions have already Leer signed by a majority of the voters. Women too. have affixed their signatures to the documents. The petitions will be presented to the city council at Its next meeting and favorable action is expected. The original petitions asking for th ward, and containing the "dry" clause, were read before council. It was then vividly brought to the attention of that body that the residents in tho section of the city west of tho railroad and west of tho river, wanted no saloons. When the ordinance was read before council, however, not ono of the city fathers noticed (he absence of the "dry" clause and the ordinance passed. When asked why the matter had not been brought to the attention of the council. Councilman McMahan of the Seventh stated that he thought tho clause was incorporated In the ordinance. Several oth er councilmen expressed tho same opinion. The question confronting tho peopla of the Eighth ward is. "Why did City Attorney Study omit the clause?" Tho Palladium could not locate Mr. Study to ascertain from him why the clausa was not Incorporated In the final ordinance.
