Academy tonight. IL is called By .
large number Of leading business and
professional men IN no wise connect
ed with the Liquor Dealers Association
or with the sale Of liquor" These
gentlemen believe that the adoption Of
the - no-hcense " law in Richmond Will
not prevent the use Of liquor here
" but increases It's sale by irresponsible
parties. and work great injury to the
business interests and prosperity Of the
city, snd necessarily cause an increase
Of taxation on real and personal pro-
perty." Such being their view, they
invite all classes Of our citizens opposed
TO prohibitory laws TO meet them to
night Ito take such action Is may be
deemed ezpedient to prevent the adop-
ton Of the Law prohibiting licenses to
te issued IN this city"
The meeting viii be called 70 order at
{ O'Clock. and II is believed that its otii-
GERS viii be selected from some Of the
foremost businessmen Of Richmond. II
