Garden City. Kan, Feb 26.-The
great excitement of the week has been
the application of Laughlin & Co,
druggists, for permit to sell liquors. for
medical and mechanical purposes,
which came up before the probate judge
on Monday. The attorneys against it
knocked out the names of so many
petitioners as lacking the necessary
qualifications that only 26 were left on
the petition, only one more than the
number required by law, when the
court adjourned until Friday when
some more names viii be attacked.
AS we have not joint in the city, and
it has been four years since a drug
store has had a permit, the majority
of our citizens think we can get along
without one, and hence there is a great
deal of opposition to granting the per
NIT.
Snow has been falling until there is a
depth of u inches, which viii be a fine
thing for wheat and alfalfa. This is
the third heavy snow this season, and
they all went off gradually, filing the
ground with moisture for the spring
crops, which was not the case last
year. and consequently crops were
short
