The licensed liquor traffic has been

were highly edited and pleased
with his talk. In the course OF his
talk he expressed the desire to meet
and discuss the whisky license

pie of Grant parish license the sale
of whisky, and asserted his ability
to give ten reasons why the sale Of
whisky should not be licensed 10

| it's favor.
Mr.. ]. T. Flanagan. in . witty
comment ON the subject, created
some diversion and caustic criticism
of the undigni6ed attitude OF the
district Judge.

while on the bench had gone ou'
out of his way to make improper
suggestions about licensing liquoI
were heartily spplauded.
On motion of P. w. Lotion duly
seconded, the secretaries of the
meeting, were instructed to write
Judge w. F. Blackman to meet Mr.
Naples in his appointments in

hundred and fifty representative
citizens from all the wards of Grant
parish braved the cold weather and
assembled this day at Fairfield
church. AS they greeted each
other and gathered around stump
and log fires, to discuss the situa-
ton, it was very evident that they
had both zeal and purpose in the
meeting.
At o'clock Rev. w. N. Greed
suggested, as there was no heating
arrangement in the church, that
the meeting be called to order in
the school house near by, as it
could be heated and made comfort
able, and the crowd accordingly
took possession of the school house.
By request-Mr. H. L. Brian call
ed the meeting to order in a few
appropriate words, and on motion
Mr.. ]. H. McNeely was called ia
the chair and made temporary
chairman, with H. G. Goodwin
and o. H. Cooper as temporary
secretaries.

Mr.. Brian explained the object Of
the meeting. and also stated the
