County Com m1ssIoners


The county commissioners were in session
yesterday for the purpose of granting licenses
and hearing objected cases.
At the request Of Jason Thompson the
hearing on the objections to granting liquor
license to August Huebnsr, of Union street,
was postponed until Mondaynext at IL o'clock,
Huebner being now sick.
Licenses we're granted to Charles l. CLARK,
$40 State street; John Goode, 11s Orange;
Alonzo H. Bishop, SO Grown; Daniel Hogan,
corner of Putnam and Liberty Streets Henry
M. Bishop, druggist corner State and
Humphrey; J. Linde d Son, druggist 139
Congress avenue.
T. J. Fex appeared in behalf of the appli-
cation of Mrs. B. WEIGH, of Seymour, who
desires q license for 42O Congress avenue for
her son, John WEIGH. George R. Bill OBJ
jected to the granting of the license on the
ground that WEIGH had been compelled to
pay for the violation of the liquor Law.
There was testimony to show that when the
place was kept by one Carroll there was
trouble and Mrs WEIGH bought it. John
Welch said he had never intended to violate
the law by allowing minors in the saloon and
that pool is not Eow played there. No dscis-
ion was reached in the case.
To, day the case of John Tyler, of West
vile, who keeps the ELM Houset" will be
heard, the objection being that he is an un-
suitable person.

jug Business.

The following will be Of some In
terest to some of our readers. The
case will no doubt be watched with
careful interest by those who engage
in the jug traffic. We copy from the
Little Rock Democrat
A case came up before the United
States commissioner which is likely
to prove quite interesting, and, as il
involves nice point in the liquor
traffic, will be watched with some de-
gree of anxiety by dealers. Mr..
Grisard, the Southern Express agent
at Gainesville, was charged with
dealing in liquor without paying the
government tax. The facts in the
case are about these: Gainesville is
prohibition town and there are still
few whisky individuals who insist
on taking their "eye openers, zap
petizers," &c. but TO do SO have to
send abroad for the sbug juice"
which is brought in Jugs by express,
"cash on delivery" As the owner
ship Of the liquor does not pass un-
til the money is paid, the government
officials claim that the express agent
who delivers the whisky and receives
the money places himself in the atti-
tude OF liquor dealer, and test
case will be made Of this. Mr.. Gri-
sard waved examination ard gava
bond for appearance at the regular
term of cort.

ASSESSORS PENALTY.
An Unnecessary Expense That
should BE Abolished.

Section Rses;.. the revenue law pro
. .;e::.ss Inat the assessor shall pos; mp
notices in each township of his coun
ty giving the date Of the day or days
when he will be at the voting precinct
OF each township to take list Of the
real and personal property therein.
Section 63 provides how he shall as
sess the property OF those who fail
or refuse to attend ON the day speci
fed and list their property. If the
person SO failing shall deliver list
Of his property to the assessor at the
county seat there shall be no penalty
charged, but il the assessor is com
pelIel to visit the residence OF the
delinquent property holder then he is
allowed to charge penalty OF vi,
fifty cents Of which belongs to the
assessor for his trouble and fifty cents
is paid into the county treasury.
Many assessors haye adopted the
rule of taking this penalty against
eyerv one who failed to appear at the
precinct on the day named. In many
instances these delinquents haye
complied with the law by delivering
their lists to the assessor at the coun
ty seat. This latter class now find
the penalty taxed against them and
have it to pay to the sheriff. In all
such cases the only remedy is for the
delinquent to appeal to the county
county for the 81 penalty wrongfully
charged to be remitted. This petit
tion compels the county judge to
summon sufficient evidence before
him to establish the facts in the case,
and If it is found that the penalty
has been wrongfully charged he must
order the county to refund the fifty
cents. This order must be spread
upon the record, for which the clerk
is allowed twenty-five cents; then
fifty cent piece ia scrip is issued af
ter the legal process of registering
the claim, fling it,, and so on until
the county has spent not less than
two dellars in order to pay back fifty
cents which got into the treasury
through the misapplicatlon OF the
law by the assessor Little Rock

What a bonanza the county elections are
to the landlords and political dead beats.
II is wealth for the one and free whiskey
for the other.
We notice the hotels are filed half the
time with these would.be county officers
and their following Can not candidate
canvass the votes Of his district without
getting all the dead beats drunk? We no.
ticc some few of the candidates will not
stoop to this whiskey bribery to influence
votes, and they are the ones best fitted to
fill the offices.
1t seems to me that a man holds q very
poor opinion of another when he thinks to
bribe or influence his vote by drink of
whiskey; and yet that is just what some
of these candidates are doing, offering a
drink of whiskey for your greatest privi-
lege as an American citizen. And some of
these candidates have not even the grace
to feel ashamed of these disreputable meth
ods, but they publicly avow that they buy
it by the barrel and use it in their canvass
and, as if this was not disgraceful enough,
they offer to pay the bills of their pimps at
baudy houses. Will any intelligent, re-
spectacle man vote for one who stoops to
such methods to secure his election l
wish some one more able than would
take this matter up and show up the char
acter and methods of these candidates, and
then let the voters determine who is best
fitted for the offices. Let merit, not whis-
key, elect the men. REFORM.
