Of r s. Jackson, ]. a. Dunlap and
K. F.. Locke, for dramshop license
authorizing g saloon g: Cornerstone,
Bogy township, this county, filed IN
the office OF County Judge James
Gould today, may lead to the imme-
diate revokaton Of dramshop Ii
cense issued to J. S. "Tandy' BaFra-
Que who is conducting a saloon three
miles from Altheimer, in Bogy town
ship
r. S. Jackman visited the Office OF
County Judge Gould today with his
petition and requested that ne be is
sued a dramshop license. v. c.
Alexander conducted a saloon at
Cornerstone up to few months ago,
when County Judge Gould ordered the
saloon closed on account OF SO much
lawlessness in that neighborhood,. He
was urged by many OF the residents OF
the neighborhood not to issue sa-
loon license there this year and he
promised them that he would not do
so.
When Mr.. Jackman presented his
application today Judge Gould turned
it down. The applicant then demand
ed to know why "Tandy' Barraque
had been given license in his town
ship, declaring that he had as much
right to license as Barraque. He
said he also has as much right to
have a dramshop license in the coun-
try district as a saloonist in Pine
Bluff
s Judge Gould told him that he would
not go back on his word; that he had
made the promise that he would not
tolerate a saloon at Cornerstone this
year, and that before he would do
so he would revoke the license issued
to J. S. Barraque, near Althelmer'
Judge Gould said that he might have
made a mistake in issuing Barraque
a license, but Baraque had told him
that there would be no other appli-
cations from that township and he is
sued It under the condition that there
would be no saloon in the country dis
tricts anywhere in the county after
this year. There was no opposition &c
the Barrauue saloon, he said, and Bar
raque had promised to conduct an Or
derby place, close it on Sundays and
| comply with the law in every re-
spect. Judge Gould sent for MI. Bar
raque, who is in the city today, but
his court attendant was unable to 10
cate him. 1t is thought that he has
returned to Altheimer
Judge Gould has issued only foul
dramshop licenses in the country dis
tricts this year and that is all that
he will issue. he says. One of these
is that OF Barraque's near Altheimer
and it may be revoked. The other
was issued yesterday TO Redtield par
ties and two were issued to Humph-
rey saloonists, where no opposition
has ever been made to saloons.
