Licence, and receive the amoht agreed

legitimate business; and they have the
right to ply their calling, az much as
though they were vending Dry Goods
or Groceries, and any attempt to injure
thcir business, is as dishonest as to
publish any thing detrimental to the
business prospects Of any other legi
innate business house in the City, and
the only way in which your appeal to

It's influence .elt is, let the question o!
licer Sc or no license be agitated from

Some may think this is impractieable,
I clxim not, for I was at Black River
Falls the past summer and there was
not a single saloon in the place. for the
