And what are his motives? Because stood
before him and dared to maintain my self

| reason on which he refused what the law really
cannot withhold from me.
II told him never sold less than halt bar
rel of ale to anybody, and when said that
sold to anybody who paid me for what he got
was not speaking against anybody. The law
does not require man to inquire into the GUS
TONER'S character. In fact the law is very
simple on the question, and L feel sure
| that l am better acquainted with the
Tsqulrements set forth by the law tnan Judge
White is. During his session in the License
Court he proved himself to be not only preju-
diced, but also thoroughly inconsistent. At
the start he proclaimed himself rabid Prohi-
bltlonlst, while just at the close ne set himself
up as an expert connoiseur OF lager beer"

leave the saloon business anyhow, and the re-

DISPATCH reporters tried to interview few
OF the saloon keepers around the heart OF the
CITY VINO had peen refused license. Very
lew OF them could be found in
their saloons, however. A call was

swinging doors which were won't to open in
ward and invite the thirsty to partake of re-
1reshment were motlonless. The gas was
turned low and the house had the general ap-
pearance OF Deing as cold as charity. The pro-
prietors had closed up shortly after IL o'clock
and presumably went somewhere to drown
their sorrows.
Gus Mlnm OF Smltnneid street, also locked
his doors before the midnight hour. AS he
