that BarriIIas has sold S3,00O,0OO worth o.

all beer licenses. Atlanta issues two kinds

saloons alone at $3.50 per annum. The
former are kept in the business part Of the
city with certain prescribed limits. The
beer saloons are in the outskirts and in
some instances in resident portions.
The mayors reason for refusing his ap-

prohibition element and to saloon men
who paid the higher license. The an
