MACON, Ga. Aug. SO.--It is probable
that city council will revoke the near
beer license, of c. c., Porter, local agent
for two large brewing establishments, al
though Porter was fined $1,000 several
days ago in the superior court for violat-
ing the prohibition law. Heretofore,
council has revoked every near-beer IL
.cense whenever the proprietor was found
guilty Of vi@ating the prohibition law.
Porter concludes that he will retain his
license because the law is not applicable
