| ton said County Judge Mooney yes
terday morning when he handed down
a decision that the Going act had
been complied with
The fact that the vote in favor OF
| the issuance Of liquor licenses in this
city at the last election showed
| larger majority in favor of legal reg.
| ulation of the liquor traffic than ever
before in the county" said Judge
Mooney, may have been occasioned
directly by the fact that the restric-
tiOns placed in the license have been
lived up to.
In this connection the restrictions
again placed in the license must be
lived up to strictly in the future. The
saloon meI are herewith put on notice
that each and every clause in the re.
strictions, and especially that clause
referring to wine rooms, will be en-
| forced. Probably because more at.
tention has been given to more inn
| pOrtant restrictions, the clause pro
| hibiting Wine rooms has not re.
ceived much attention, but this court
| considers that prohibition as very inn
portant, and the wine rooms must not
| be operated"
Judge Mooney made but one mate
| rial change in the restriction, and
| that was permitting the saloons to
| close at l o'clock instead of midnight
''Ho, Springs is a resort city said
Judge Mooney, and | appreciate the
| fit that our visitors must have some
| .axity. During the season when the
! visitors spend the evenings at thea
! ter, and desire to have lunch and
| drinks served with lunch, after the
! theater, in some instances in the past
year they have been denied the OPP
portunity to conclude their evening
refreshments because of the strict en-
forcement of the midnight clause.
Il realize that the laws regulating
the saloons have been well enforced
in the past. and | look for an even
stricter compliance in the future. !
believe that it is better to make a
straight line of restriction that IS
fair to all, and then force all to abide
such restrictions"
One clause Judge Mooney placed in
the license THAT frightened" the for
mer policy considerably was when he
added this paragraph:
| l.
under the law: if the holder thereof
attempts to transfer the same by per-
hitting some person other than him
| self to operate under or bv virtue
thereof, the county court will revoke
This license"
Already the courts have held that
the saloon license is special privi-
lege, and that the county court can
put whatever restriction he believes
public policy demands within the priv.
ilege
