Des Moines Saloons Win License Delay Amid City Vote
Des Moines city commissioners granted a renewal of saloon licenses from Jan 1 to Feb 15, while a district court case over a petition consent blocks full renewal. The pro and anti saloon factions clashed after the Billy Sunday campaign, led by Rev C S Medbury, who headed a petition of over 10 000 voters asking license denial. The case, filed three years ago challenging petition sufficiency, has seen multiple postponements by wets.

Time on Venus Defies Everyday Units
Inhabitants of Venus would struggle with time as Venus always shows the same face to the sun, giving no day. Its lack of a moon removes a month, and its axis is perpendicular to its orbit, which is nearly circular, so there is no year.
