there any likelihood Of the business subsdng for weeks
10 come. A great number Of persons whose licenses
have been granted paid the required fee 10 the
treasurer N. Aaniere yesterday and presentation
Of the receipt for the money 70 Colonel Baram received
their commission licensed liquor dealers for year.
The amount received by the treasurer twenty thou
sand dollars which IL the largest sum yet received for
this source remaining in the hands Of the treasurer
ninety thousand dollaIs

two thousand have been granted by tho Board. The

arising from such benzine and alcoholic potatons some
care will DO found necessary on the part Of citizens

purity Of all liquors sold will be previously submitted to
