Opposition to The Grant
ing Of Certain Licenses.
THE BOARD MEETS MONDAY.
The Postmastershlp Still Remains I'M
settled-Daniels Estate Settlement.

One week from tonight the Board OF
License Commissioners will be called
upon To perform a very difficult task, that
OF granting satisfactorily 20 the majority
of the people the licenses for the sale Of
intoxicating liquors for the ensuing year.
This work has been made unnecessarily
laborious owing to the constant pleadings
OF political traders, who actually cared
nothing for the town only what they
could get out OF it. There will undouted-
ly be some opposition 10 the granting OF
licenses as the Law and Order League
Will endeavor TO nave the number OF liz
ceEses reduced.
There is no disputing the fact that
there has been altogether too much rum
rule In Lincoln and IL remains TO be seen
whether that element will run the town
for another year or not. The Commis'
sioners may not take any notice OF the
objections fled by tho league, but say
they will use Their best Judgment In the
matter.
As regards TO the distribution Of licen-
ses Rev. MIR. Chalmers and his followers
are trusting 10 the wisdom and honor OF
the men whom the council have selected
to preside over the affairs ot the commis-
what Is right and what Is wrong in the
matter. They also know there is no dan
ger In doing The right thing, while there
is no END 10 the misery that Is liable to
follow those who are ever ready to waddle
In the footsteps Of The boodlgr. II they
seriously blunder In this part Of their Of
ficisl duties they alone must take the re-
sponsibillty.
About the Postmastership
IL was stated several months ago that
the appointment OF Democrat to take
the place Of Postmaster Bowen would be
made directly after election, bat matters
appear 10 be the same as they were year
ago when the term OF Office oith pre-
sent incumbent expired.
