by the Supreme Court Thursday after
noon the county clerk of Boulder coun-
ty is enjoined from certifying the re-
suits of the local option election held
in North Longmont, precinct "a of
Boulder county, Tuesday the 3rd inst.
The decision emanated from petition
presented by attorneys representing
the liquor interests of Longmont. 1t

vent the result of the vote on the To-

nounced until after the Supreme Court
has had opportunity to decide the dis
