The circuit court for Alexandria county
which has been In session at the county
court house at Fort Myer Heights for the
past week. will. on Monday, consider the
applications which will be made for the
granting of licenses to sell liquor in the
county. Under the provisions of the Vir-
gnta law before a license can be granted
it must be shown that there is sufficient po-
lice protection to warrant the licensing of
barroom and the applicant must also have
bis application signed by a majority of
the residents in the neighborhood of the
proposed saloon.
Since the order of Judge Nfcol Of the cir
cult court of Alexandria county closed all
of the saloons a year ago, on the ground
that there was not sufficient police protec-
ton to make it safe for renewal Of
the licenses. there have been no legal bar
rooms in Alexandria county although, ac-
cording to the report of the special grand
jury which has been in session this week.

tain sections

pie of the county when the matter comes
up on Monday.
