LICENSE GRANTED.
Applicant Given Privilege of Selling
Liquor at Chesapeake Junction.

1t was believed by some Of the residents
of Prince Georges county and the District
whose homes are in the vicinity of Chesa-
peake Junction that that section was to be
dry this summer, but this illusion was dis
PEELED when a license was granted a few
days ago. The Prince Georges county
license year begins May 1, and the delay
in acting upon the applications had caused
the belief that the patrons of the resorts
there would have to content themselves
with soft drinks this summer. Friday
last Constable Vermillon served notice on
the keepers of the resorts, with one ex-
ception, that their applications had been
rejected and that their places would have
to close.
1t was reported that several warrants
had been issued for the proprietor of one
of the resorts for refusal to comply with
the order of the county clerk. Under the
law of Maryland, 1t is stated, the clerk Of
the court has discretionary powers in the
matter of granting liquor licenses, and
there is no appeal from his decision.

REWARD THE cHAPLAINs.
A Bill now Before Congress Ranking
Them as Majors.

Harper's Weekly: The understand
ing about army chaplains in our SER
vice has always been that if they earn
ed a special reward nothing should be
done to impair their claim to collect
the whole of it in the world to come
All army chaplains are and have been
heretofore of the same rank, and nei-
Their faithful service nor any disclo-
sure of heroism, devotion or proficien-
cy could win them the invitation to go
up higher. There is now bill before
congress to institute one higher grade,
with rank corresponding to the ranl;
of major to which twelve OF fifteen
chaplains (one-fourth of the whole
numberl may be promoted. 1t seems
a bill that ought to be passed. Clergy
men in civil life win promotion and
get it. There is no good reason why
army chaplains should be without the
hope of a like reward. Many of them
have admirable records. A reason
able promotion when earned by eff
cient service is not only their due,
but would help to keep in the service
good and valuable men who are need
ed there, and to whom superior in
ducements are offered to resign and
take positions in civil life.
