Ing that an election be held in this
county TO determine whether nr not
liquor should be sold here. WI - the

Clerk ,Acker to look up the law on the
subject and then. Mir. Acker found that
tic code OF 1912 contained the words
'"shall continue the sale OF liquor"
Local folks believed that this would
iupply only TO those counties already
selling liquor and they accordingly
asked the clerk TO get more light on
the subject. 49,
