Roanoke County Court.

ne following are the proceedings OF
the Roanoke county court yesterday:
The application OF B. L. Lockett &
Co., of Piney Grove, for liquor license,
was granted by Judge Brown. Before
deciding he required further evidence
as to the behavior of women OF i'll re.
pute, whose obscene actions were repre-
scented in the testimony for the com
monwealth on Tuesday last. The testi-
mony OF number of witnesses we're
taken on this point tending to esta blish
the fact that good behavior was ALWAYS
enforced at this place by the proprietor,
who had been there fifteen years. A
bond in the penalty Of the sum of $3.50
was required in each OF the applications
for retail and barroom license, with J.
B. Garst and j. A. Peters as security.
Judge Brown next took up the applica-
tion of c. M. Weber for q druggists
liquor license The court decided that
the license should not be granted, say
ing, in substance, that his interpreta.
ton OF the statute law applying to the
same did not allow prescription to be
reflled after its first presentations that
the question Of granting or not granting
license rests mainly upon the sound
| discretion OF the court, taking into con
sideration all the surrounding facts and
circumstances, and that, it being ad-
mittedly true that the applicant had
refilled in violation OF the law, he did
not think 1t proper to grant the license.
Notice for appeal TO the circuit court
from this decision was given, and a fur.
thcr notice was also given, in compliance
with rule established by Judge Nj oifett,
OF giving one months posted notice in
front OF the courthouse that he would
move the county court at its next term
to grant a retail and barroom license.
This application will bring in contest
the validity Of the late local option cleo
tion and its proceedings. The recent
decision of Judge White, at Roanoke
| city, will no doubt play an important
part in the arguments and contentious
made in behalf OF the applicant This
application for retail and bareoom Ii
cense was docketted and set for hearing
the second day of the May term.

Nearly 10000 acres of rich agricui-
tural land in the Province of Quebec
has been given away in bounties for
large families in the last four years
by the provincial government. These
Dounues are regulated by law and
are paid mt the rate of 100 acres of
government land for every family of
twelve or more children. The act
governing the bounties was a creation
of ex-Premier Mercier and was en-
titled AN act to confer privilege up
on fathers OF families who have twelve
children living"
In order to obtain the bounty the
applicant must present u petition to
the provincial secretary accompanied
by his certificate of marriage, a certiti-
cate of baptism of each of his child
ren and n certificate, sworn before Il
Justice of the pence. giving the mum
Der and names of his children Up to
this date 1872 fathers of twelve or
moro children have complied with the
conditions of this act and received the
state reward.
Not all Of them, however. are salts
fed with the amount of the bounty.
Instances of families of twenty or
more children are not rare, and the

In some cases they are from parents
whose twelfth child is yet of exceed
ingly tender age and WHO could no
earlier have complied With the condl,

are constantly received from people
who have only recently heard Of the
law. or who have held back until sure

thing to do to take Of official bounty.
