W B Powell’s liquor license was granted after compliance. Hager and Winsor received permission to add a 30 foot extension to their warehouse on east First street, facing north, on a stone foundation with corrugated iron. The council approved measures to aid corn palace visitors, ordering water barrels along Main street and erecting seats over the cement gutter for concert crowds.
