Vogel, Auctioneer Waukegan Sun: The prosecution of the Fox Lake saloonkeepers by State's Attorney Ilalph Dady will have the effect of causing many of them to go out of business as soon as they can dis­ pose of their places of business, re­ gardless of the fact that they may be obliged to do so at a great sacrifice. At least this is the statement of a num­ ber who are in a position to know. They say the saloonkeepers at Fox Lake have lost so much money this season that several of them have bare­ ly a dollar to their name. Two principal causes are ascribed for this condition. They are: First The fact that, the saloonkeep­ ers there were obliged to pay the en­ tire $.JU0 annual license fee sis provided under the statutes, instead of paying for only the portion of the year they operate. v Second Since the state's attorney has clinM-d up the saloons there on Sun­ days the business has dropped off to such an extent that it is hardly jKWsi- ble for a saloonkeeper to make a liv­ ing. In the ulden uays the Fox Lake sa­ loonkeepers depended upon their re­ ceipts on Sunday to make up for the lack of business during the week, for the big transient business is always done on Sunday, it is on that day that hundreds of motoring parties usually make Fox Lake their goal and the saloon keeper always have done a land ottice business. During the week there are fewer transients at the resorts and the saloonkeepers do not expect to do so much business. WJien they were shut off from their Sunday business they lost the source from which they derived their protit and since then it 'is said they have been losing money. The increase in the license also was a serious blow. Up to the present year the saloonkeepers had been in the habit of paying license for only the two or three months during tlip -sum­ mer when they kept their places open, for the business in the winter time is not profitable. They paid this license* at the rate of &j00 per year. This year the state's attorney insisted they pay the license for the entire year a$ required by law. Some of the saloonkeeper^ may npt go out of business immediately, for The undersigned will sell at public auction on the W. E.
