Old and New Licenses.

Since the passage of the new tenn
perance law, questions have arisen
az to the force Of licenses given IN
der the old law, and whether liquor
dealers whose licensed terms have IN
expired are required to take out new
licenses under the new law As the
law il construed by our lawyers usu-
ally tho old licensees need not take
out new licenses, nor give bonds or
snroties till the expiration of the old
licenses. But under the present law
old licensees are liable to the same
oxtent to podalties and damages rs
tho new licensees. So that they are
only protected from having to take
out new licenses and from giving
bonds and suretics Till tho expiration
Of their old licenses.

Galona and Southern Wisconsin R.R.

We learn that The officers Of this
railroad company arc visiting the
towns along the limo Of the propcs-
ed road, from Galena to Wingville,
with a view to securing the right Of
way, and to procure stock subscrip-
ton TO the road. They ask nothing
from the towns as gift, but desire
them to take a reasonable amount Of
stock in the enterprise, There can
be no question but the road would
raise 10 value the price Of real estate
IN tho towns through which it pass
es, and at the Same time make each
village a place of greater business
Importance. 70 each market adgan-
tagos will be thereby afforded, aad
wherever these ere secured, the pros
pority of an agricultural community
is no longer matter Of uncertainty
or Of chance. Galenl promises 10
DO tho handsome thing in bringing
this railway prospect to u consumma-
ton and all the towns in this coun-
ty through which the road is to pass,
will, we doubt not, como confidently
TO the rescue as soon as they arc
onco fairly satisfied that The enter
prise amounts to something moro
than printers ink and CANNON.
