: Capt. w. H. Taylor has been again ap
pointed by the county commissioner a.
liquor agent for the town of Rockingham
The captain did not get his commission un
til the second day Of May, SO the agency
closed on the first day. The commissioner
informed Mr.. Taylor that in his opinion
the agency here was conducted as
conscientiously as any in the coun.
try. This position is a most trying
one man born Of woman cannot fill il
without criticism The incumbent is FIRE.
quently subjected to cross kicking the
thirsty who are willing to break the law
and ask other men to, kick if their bottles
are not filled as often as presented; and
those who have no bottles or whose bottles
are filled from some other source kick i
the prayer of the thirsty is granted. But
as long as the state continues in the run
business, there will probably be agencies
and agents and drinkers legitimate and lille
ultimate and also kickers; SO under the
circumstances it would seem that Captain
Taylor is the best man for the place unit
some one else has been installed and dem
onstrated to the community his superior
fitness for administering the duties of the
office.
