Licenses-Notes.

The License Commissioners will meet
this evening for the purpose OF acting
upon the applications for the licenses. In
years past the Board has granted licenses
without any complaint from citizens but
this year objections will be filed. During
the week petitions have been I'm circula-
ton asking the commissioners to restrict
the number of places TO at least one for
every 800 inhabitants; grant no licenses to
places that are connected with tenement
houses or are run in connection with
stores and to refuse to grant licenses to
peddlers. The residents OF the town who
are working for good order have great
undertaking upon their hands and it is
question whether there will be any less
saloons in town next year.
