 It is probable that more liquor i- censes will be granted this year than were issued in 1889, even if the policy of re- striction is adopted. In that year there was a general protest for one thing against the Rockwell building on -Main-st. which had always been notorious nuis- ance as conducted. It was built with the avowed pupose of defiance of law, and had always been so run. Since the li- cense was then refused no attempt has been made to sell there, and the place has been most of the time unoccupied for any purpose. An unobjectionablep person now applies for license to sell there, and stands a better chance for favorable considera- tion than did his predecessors in 1889, though having to meet the disadvantage that the street contains hotel, nearly opposite, which will no doubt be licensed. It is reported that the county commis- sioners are to visit the borough within a few day. to look the ground over.
