other building was put up. but court
would not reissue a license.
REGAIN TO RETIRE.
The application of p. ]. Regan. which
was protested by the Municipal league.
was withdrawn by Attorney C. P.
O'Maley. to the accompaniment OF
statement that the league was hound
ing Mr.. Regan and he decided to re-
tire from business. a rule to revoke
the Regan license for selling on Sunday
is now pending.
An application was received from w.
Dol, fnY 1irnr fny {.
place Attorney f. f. Beers. represent
ing the Municipal league, objected on
the ground that Boland is a former
partner and relative of Regan and is
simply asking for a license so that Re-
gan may continue business under his
name.
"We'll hear YOU on that" remarked
Judge Edwards. Mr.. Beers contended
that it was the duty of the applicant to
show that the application was made
in good faith when it's good faith was
questioned. The court shook it's sever
al heads in disapproval and Judge
Kelly said I'VE can't be expected to
guess that the applica tion is not made
in good faith. The presumption on the
face of the petition is that it is in good
faith" Mr.. Beers said he hadn't looked
at it that way.
The most interesting hearing of the
day was in the case of j. w. Brink
who wants a license for the Exchange
hotel. His wife, Jennie f. Brink was
conducting the place. last year, and
lost her license last January for SELL
ing on Sunday. The Municipal league
which secured the revocation of the
license, made objection to her husband
being given license as it meant, prac-
tically, a renewal of his wife's revoked
license
DETECTIVES ON STAND.
To prove the allegation that Brink,
at all events, was not fit person to
conduct Il hotel, League Detectives Ar
thur Whitney and Frank Keene took
the stand and testified that the hotel
has been doing business right along
since the revocation of the license, and
that Mr.. Brink himself has sold liquor
there. Both detectives stated positive
ly that it was Mr.. Brink who served
them.
Judge Edwards asked Mr.. Holgatc,
attorney for Brink, if it was true that
business has continued at the Exchange
