COUNTY COURT
CLERK PRICE
REFUSES TO LICENSE
SO. PITTSBURG SALOON
Strenuous Effort Made TO Force
Him, but He Is ImmOyable
From His Position, Which
Is Strongly Endorsed.

The question of f~selling liquor III
South Pittsburg has again risen to the
front, and it looks as if the temperance
people were ON top this time. Thurs
day last the license of George Erwin,
who has been running saloon in that
city, expired, and he made appllca-
tion to County Court Clerk James
Price for renewal, the city license hay-
ing been already granted him, but a
county licence not having been grant
ed. This Mr.. Price refused to do, say
ing that in his opinion the Adams law
still held force over the city and ad-
mitting that he erred in granting the
first license. Erwin then went to Chat-
tanooga Friday and made application
to Judge Allison for peremptory writ
of mandamus compelling the County
Court Clerk to issue license. This
Judge Allison refused to do, as 1t
would compel the clerk to issue the IL
cense without opportunity to argue his
case. He offered, however, to issue
an alternative writ which would OBJ
lige the clerk to make response as tc
why he would not issue the license de-
manded. This did not suit Erwin anC
his friends, and they withdrew thell
petition.
Hon. Foster " Brown, of Chatta
nooga, has been investigating tn
question, and it is very probable tina
the Mayor of South Pittsburg will hav
to answer Indictment at the session o
circuit court Monday next, to answe
as to his position and connection wit
the aiders and abettors of the whiske
tra6c. Some very sensational evi
dence is expected to be brought ou
as the whiskey muddle in South Pitts
burg has reached startling proportions
The Mayor is charged with permittln
the opening of saloon in South Pitt
!, burg to secure his election by proml
ing that if he was elected Mayor b
,, would permit saloon to be opened
