TWO SALOON
LICENSES REFUSED
Rlngo Bar and Mcintyre & Halls
Thirst Parlor closed-county Court
Refuses to Grant License.

The County Court refused to grant
a dramshop license Tuesday to e.
Tomlinson for the Ringo saloon and
Wednesday refused a license to To-
ny Weinand for the jefferson Bar.
The court held that the sale of the
business in each case was illegal and
a subterfuge.

the a~nti-saloon interests was a stub
born one and on this occasion they
were apparently prepared for every
move made by their opponents.
