PENNSGROVE GETS
LICENSE BACK
Court Says Local Option Must
be Settled by People,
Not Court

Judge Sinnickson granted a license
yesterday to french's Hotel, Penns-
grove, against which a remonstrance
numerously. signed had been presented.
There were no specific complaints
against the hotel, but the petitioners.
who, the Rev. j. Ward Gamble said,
represented -four -hfths Of the financial,
social and religious people Of the bor-
ough," asserted that the town woul1
be better of without the sale of liquor.
In explanation of the Courts action
Judge Sinnickson said: Il think the
hotelkeepers of the county are CO.
operating with the Court in trying Il
conduct as respectable places as pos
sible, and IL is great satisfaction that
no charges have been preferred against
them. The local option question is one
that must be settled by the vote Of the
people. and not by .the Court, and all
the latter is called upon to decide is
the necessity. There has been a hotel
in Pennsgrove nearly 100 years, aud
the place is rapidly growing. I think
it necessary that a licensed house be
kept there"
T. G. Hillard, attorney for the Mayor
and Common Council Of the borough
made application to have the license
fee increased from S40O to $500, bu;
the Court compromised and made Il
$500.
