tenants from taking the benefit of tho land
act. The arrest was quietly planned and
executed and it was some time afterward
before it became generally known. There
was much excitement but no dcmonstra
tons were made by his followers, indeed
it would have been folly to attempt any
thing of the kind, as the city was an armed

No LICENSE IN MoRGANTowN.-The
Board Of. County Commissioners re-
fused to grant license to the saloon
keepers last week. The anti-license
men have fought hard and long and
although defeated at the town cleo
ton succeeded in carrying their point
before the court. Hon. w. T. Wiley
and Revs. w. C. Snodgrass and j. r.
Thompson delivered able speeches be-
fore the court in opposition to the
granting of license. The action OF
the court will have the hearty sup
port Of very many of our citizens, il
not majority of the voters of the
borough. Citizens of the State will
not now be afraid to send their sons
to the University. Much pressure
was brought to bear upon the Com
missioners by the advocates of Ii
cense, but despite this, the members
of the board did what they thought
to be right, in defiance of tho opin-
ions of the license men. They did
what is undoubtedly right and for
the best.
