A Hint to saloon Keepers.

Persons who have been refused license
for the sale OF liquor can hardly expect
to be successful Of the coming session ol
the Court, % Chief Justice Comegys II
reported TO have said at Dover on Mon
day last. on the presentation Of the ap-
plication Of Terrence Carvin, OF KentoD,
who had been refused last year:
"This mans coming here will do no
good. We have already had too much
trouble with him. The Court has cstAb-
lished rule, which It will follow, that
no man who 10 once refused need renew
his application, for the Court will not
grant him license"
Judge Grubb, who was seated beside
the Chief Justice, remarked: mot until
after the expiration Of two Years 1t
least"
The Chief Justice apparently did not
accept the amendment, for he added
after pause: $50 there 10 no use 10 this
man coming here sny more"
From the above 1t will be seen that
applicants, who have been refused H.
cense, need not apply again with hope
Of success, unlcss one rule should be
adopted for Kent and another for New
CaAtl0.
