The LICENSE FRAUDS Mr.. John
Mealey, of III city, has rendered very
important service 10 the State, without
much cost to himself, perhaps,) in taking
the trouble 10 show the Legislature the
number of liquor licenses granted in this
county by the Federal Government, and
the number granted by the county courts.
The lumber Of licenses granted by the
government to sell liquor, is 25s in the
c.ty; while the number granted by the
Court in the city is "a. The difference is
remarkable. The government grants d
licenses outside the city Limits, and the
Of 2l Total number Of licenses granted
by government, Sl2; total by the courts,
lu1. 50 that it will be seen that the
government issues 20 more licet ses than
,he county court does. Now. if appears
from this showing that the county was
deirauSed $4,000 by persons who sell
liquor under government license alone.
Bat the ftaud does not stop here. Doubt
- there is a, least hundred other
houses that sell without government
Licenses. if Mr.. Mealey's hcurs are
correct and We do not doubt them AT all.
