ported on II. +. IL and c. Fla, in
relation to legalizing certain doeu-
ments now ON file. The committee
recommended that GA be put
upon its passage and II. f. IL be re-

The same gentleman also reported
on III: F. is, bill in reference

which raised the maximum Iiquor
license TO $1,000 per annum. and said
that in the minds Of the majority of
Inc committee such legislation was
unwise and inexpedieht.
Hammond presented a minority
report on the same subject which
recommended that some such law
be enacted. ~ .#

Reid did not see eye to eye with
Mr. Hammond. We may strain
this thing. We are at the ton of the
tree: Have We not gone far enough?J
WIN not such an increase of license
