NEWPORT-Councilman Davis last night introduced an ordinance in Council
that contemplated the reduction of the number of saloons in Newport to 80. No
saloon keeper now in business is to be forced out but as those now in the
business quit, no new ones are to be permitted and in this manner the number
will drop down to the number indicated.
There are at present about 106 saloons in the city. There have been as high as 120. The ordinance was referred to the Law and License Committee and City Solicitor.
