PECULIAR situations result sometimes in
the administration of law and it is won
-derful to see the different decisions that
can be rendered on one section of q
statute. This was made apparent in q
case of application to our county court
for license to sell liquor. About
three months ago the applicant was
refused a license. A section of the law
on the subject recites that whenever any
court shall reject and refuse to grant the
application of any person for license to
keep an inn, under the provisions of this
act, it shall not be lawful for such person
or persons whose application to keep such
inn or tavern shall have been rejected to
apply again for said license at any time
within year. The common people" as
William ]. Bryan terms them, would
naturally suppose that the section referred
to would apply to the case in. mind, but
the applicant came up smiling with new
application for house in the same town,
but in different location from the first
not again apply for such" license to keep
said hotel Consequently he was grant
ed license. With this view of the case 1t
will be hard to find any one who will not
think that the point and the law were
stretched beyond all semblance of shape,
yet the granting is probably within the
words of the statute. The precedent is dan
georus Take any hotel in the county take
the hotel of Benjamin ZeIley, for an in
stance. Should he be denied license at any
term all he would be required to do would
be to fit up place on any of the cor
ners opposite to him and apply again.
The new location would be all that would
be necessary.
Another thing in connection with this
affair is the fact that the license granted
last week was for the place rejected three
months ago. At that time there were two
applications from New Gretna. Both were
refused, but in the present case one of the
men who could not get license for his house
is privileged to take the other place and
sell there Under the circumstances the
fairest thing to do in this case was to
grant license to both the rejected appli-
cants, allowing them to swap positions.
As the case now stands the applicant for
an uptown place and one for down town
place may both be rejected at one term
of court, but both may apply at the next
term, providing they change with each
other and that the objection does not ap-
ply to- them personally.
