WILSON D|SPENSARY|
New Bill Will Knock Out
Toisnot and Wilson City
Bill.

The Senate Committee on Propositions
brief period the matter of dispensaries
IN Wilson county, with reference also
to dispensaries at Toisnot and Wilson.
The question came up in the consid
GRAFTON of bill which has in three prop
>ositions to be voted on by the entire
county. These are: /. Whether liquor
shall be manufactured in the county; 2.
Sold by retail, or 3. Sold at a dispensary.
This bill was introduced last Friday by
Senator Woodland, by request.
Mr.. r. n. Simms, of Raleigh represent
ing the interests of the advocates of
dispensary in the town of Toisnot was
present When the matter was taken up
he spoke briefly but forcibly concerning
the bill.
The bill, he stated, was simply of the
nature of the Watts, Murphy and Smith
bills. 1T is roughly and crudely drawn
and has in it errors which would nullify
it if passed in it's present shape. 1t bears
evidence of having been hastily drawn
and is open to all kinds of objections. One
of the glaring errors in the bill is where
it says that despite the fact if at the
election held the sale of liquor is for
hidden it shall be lawful to sell it
This BILL" continued Mr.. Simms,
"will, if adopted, virtually destroy the
bills already reported favorably by this
committee providing for election at Will
son and Toisnot on >--e question Of dis
pensaries. If it is to be reported favor
ably | ask that a section be Incorporated
in the bill which will exempt Toisnot
from its provisions. l do not believe
that the town of Wilson desires 49, 49,
but / am not authorized to speak for
Wilson. l do urge this action in regard
to Toisnot, however, if this new bin is
to be reported favorably."
The committee concluded that it would
not act on the bill, but would postpone
a hearing on 1t until three o'clock this
afternoon when the matter will be taken
up again.
