The village of Littlefork is not a 'prohobition town. but it is well night a prohibitory one as far ag saloons are concerned. A short time ago the village council raised the price of liquor licenses from 81,000 to $6,000 per year, and S. S. Lachappelle’s application was the first to come up since the new order went into effect. He evident- ly did not believe that the council was in earnest and made no pro- vision for paying the larger sum. He was promptly turned down. There have heretofore been three saloons in the village anu it saiG that they have been running things with a high hand. The council, composed of two preachers, two socialists and a progressive Repub- lican, do not think that the saloon keepers can possibly meet the de- mands made, and thus two of them at least, will be forced out of busi- ness Parcels Post Profitable. The report of Postmaster General Burleson on the workings of the parcels post plan shows that the first year of operation will result in a net profit of over $30,000,000.
