: ance, composed of large number o
prominent and influential ladies and
gentlemen of the State, have the matter
in charge, and will present their claims
before the Legislature III body, on
Thursday evening of next week.
The meeting will be held in thu
hall Of the House, and the matter
will IN literally discussed by able
speakers. As the move has just started
it is not safe to conjecture what the re-
suit will be- but it is hardly likely that
% Democratic Legislature will pass such
a law, when they know it would III
gent license law will be passed there il

will be substituted, as the wise Senate
rial body do not feel disposed t" quarrel
with Their friends III the fiouN" over a
