Still An Open Question

Ata joint meeting of the Ann Arbor Ministers' Association and the Reform League held this week in secret session, the question whetherto joiu forcea iu a struggle for a]five-mile law to protect the University was discussed at considerable length but without definite result. In fact there is difference of opinión as to whether the present is the best time to go forward with this movement. The Courier discussed the matter this morning with oneof the city pastors who was present at the joint meeting. He said that personally he was in favor of five-mile legislation, but that that sentiment was not unanimous. Some thouglit it best not to spring any further measures on the legislature at this session, inasniuch as several important measures of this nature were before them now. Some think it wisest to help push the matter of securing a vote for a prohibitory amendment, this lieinjj one of the resolutions now introduced. Others have different ideas and it is not easy to say what will be done. One thing was certain ; f a five-mile bill was introduced it must be introduced soon, as only twenty-five days remain in which bilis may be placed before the legislature. The two associations adjourned to meet at the cali of the president of the Reform League.
