THE license notice Of the Dorsey
House, in South Milford, appears in
one of the Georgetown papers and the
Laurel Gazette published in the south
west corner of Sussex county. The
local papers of Milford are entirely
ignored, and the notice placed as far
away from Cedar Greek AS possible
The above fact places the liquor BUSH
ness in false position. By slipping
away from the local paper it locks as
if the people of South Milford and
Cedar Creek hundred, where the ben
elits or injury from conducting such
business is to be felt, were to be kept
i'm the dark in regard to this particu-
lar application. Selling liquor is a
business that special laws have been
enacted to control and protect, and
each community affected has special
interest IN the applications. The
names of those recommending the APP
plicant and the time Of applying for
license is therefore public property,
and the effort to elude public notice
gives rise to the Thought that there
must be something wrong about the
business. The Dorsey House seems
to haye been conducted on about a par
with other hotels of the State, and we
presume its proprietor has nothing to
fear because of his management, and
for this reason he should have faced
the community in which he lives and
from which his support is drawn, by
saying to them: Il purpose to COM
ply with the law, aud these are names
of men in your school districts who
recommend me-" All have their pc
cuIiarities.
