situated so as 30 catch the trade of on ster

the mainland all around il local option
exists II has large whisky trade.
The house is situated partly in Mary.

location cannot be arrived nt, rs il il not
included within the lines Of any county
or district. Smiths Island and Crisfield
district of Somerset county lie adjacent
to the island, but no portion of il is in
cluded within the limits of either of these
districts. The proprietor has no licbnse
TO sell liquor, and not being in any
county, so for as the existing lines show,
and being unable to locate himself, he
has no source from which to procure q
license, and, consequently, goes without.
In the absence of mn authority 10 grant
license, there can, of course, be no
authority to prohibit him from selling
without license, and not being within the
jurisdiction Of any county, he ia not sub
jeet TO the existing local option laws OF
the bordering counties. His bar-room,
previous TO the passage of local option
laws in the Deighboring counties of vir-
ginia, was located on the Virginia side of
the line, but after their passage he has
removed il a few feet, and over the line,
and now conducts his business in Mary
land. The island possesses the peculiar
feature OF being partly in Maryland, yet
not part Of any county in the state, aud
of being in sight of local option territory
both in Maryland and Virginia, and yet
having no such laws of its own, and of
occupying such position that the
license laws of neither state can reach it.
On this peculiarly situated island man
