John Atkins, a saloon-keeper, OF
Vandalia, is in Mexico on business. He
stated Tuesday that he would not APP
ply to the County Court for a renewal OF
license to conduct a saloon in Wanda
liza and that he will close his place Of
business at the expiration Of the pres
emit license, on Feb. ID, which comes a
week from next Sunday.
The fight which has been going on
between temperance people of Wanda
liza and the advocates Of the licensed
saloon has been quite warm and
would have been very closely contest
ed before the County Court Thursday,
when it was the intention of Atkins
to apply for a renewal license. Mr..
Atkins stated Tuesday that, although
he had a majority Of the taxpayers on
his petition, he had decided not to ap-
ply for a license just at this time; he
will visit Oklahoma, Washington and
California for a few months and may
apply for a license to operate a soloon
in Vandalia later.
