Data for the Legislators.

The State Excise Commission has
just issued in printed form for distri-
button among members of the Legis-
1ature and State officers a detailed re-
port of the liquor licenses granted in
New Jersey. The statistics for each
county, with summary for the whole
State at the conclusion, occupy full

it is one of the most interesting and
instructive reports he has ever seen
printed by the State.
Only two counties in the State have
fewer licenses than Gloucester, Cum
berland, and Salem. Somerset, Sus-

Hunterdon and Warren, all counties
of the Fourth class, have two and
more to Gloucester's one, and none of
the licenses in this county are saloon
licenses.
