Bloomsburg Opera House, Tuesday evening, January liUtli. Llfo klzo crayons in gold frames ouly $10. tf U'KlllIp Bros. i.tcimui: court, Court met on Mondy, January 21, 1680 at 10 o'clock 1 President Judge Ikclcr and Assoclato Judge Mctlenry on the bench, After the trautacilon ot somu routine busi ness Judgo Ikeler stated that bo bad re ceived on Saturday remonstrances against tho granting of any license, from Berwick, Llghtstrcet, Bloomsburg, and Mlllvlllo, As H. ri. Howell Esq. represented tho opposl. tlon to sonio applications, the papers wero handed to him. Col. Freeze objected to tho consideration of the papers on tho ground that the rules of court require re. monstrances to be filed soven days befoto Hccnrc court, which has not been dune. G. E Elwcll objected to them on tbe ground that tho Supremo Court has said that gen eral rcmonsltmccs ought not to bo con sidcred. It. Buckingham and J. H, Maize also objected to tho filing uf tbo papers. After examining tho papers, Mr. Howell handed them back to tho court, saying that ho would present them at tho argument, to show popular sentiment. Owing to the non-arrival of Associate Judge Murphy, tbo license cases were post poned until 1:80 p. m. Court convened at 1:30, Judges Ikclcr and McUenry on tho bench, Judge Murphy being dctalnod by sickness. B. N. Walker was appointed official sten ographer for the courts of the 2Gth District. D. It. Coffmau was appointed court crier for Columbia county, and compensation fixed at $1 CO for each day's attendance. Elijah Bhutt and M. E. Cox wero ap pointed tipstaves, at $1.00 per day, and they aro required to keep tbo court room, furnlturo and spittoons clean. Tbo licenses wero then taken up. On behalf of the exceptions, Mr. Howell argued that the court had no jurisdiction to grant licenses at this time, because the Act ot 1875 fixes the first and second terms ot court in each year, as the time for grant ing licenses, and tbe Act of 1887 does not repeal the Act of 1875. Ho contended that the provision in tho Act of 1887 providing that the court may fix a timo by standing rule or order, means only that tho court may fix a time within tbe period fixed by tho Act of 1875, to wit, at tbe first or second term ot the year. Ue also contended that the form of tho advertisement In the news papers were lnuftlclent,in not showing the residence of the applicants with sufficient accuracy. He asked that the court would make an order permitting a copy ot the ex ceptions to be filed In any or alt cases. To this objections wero made by counsel rep resenting applicants. Mr. Howell asked permission to read remonstrances sent to tho court last Saturday. To this objections wero made by counsel for applicants, which were overruled, and the rcmanstranccs per mitted to be read. Exceptions wero taken by all applicants. Tho petitions were as follows : To Judge E. It Ikeler. We do hereby petition and beg you, for the sake ot our community and for the present and rising generation In our midst, to do all in your power to havo our laws of order and pcac enforced, and that at the convening of the coming term ot court you will as far as possible grant no license for tho sale of spirituous and malt liquors in our county. Women's Christian Temperance Union. Bloomsburg, Pa." 83 signatures. 'To the Hon. E. R. Ikeler, President Judge of Columbia cunty. Your petitioners, ladies of tho Woman's Christian Temperance Union of Columbia county, being convinced that tho manufac ture and sale of intoxicating liquors as a beverage, Is productive of evil, atul only evil ; and Whereas, drunkenness amongst tho young men of our county is evidently on the increase, in consequence of tho lack of necessary legal restraint, and Whereas, the laws of the United States have for their foundation tbo Divine law, and that law denounces drunkenness, therefore bo it re solved, that wo respectfully pray your Honor to grant no licenses tor the sale of intoxicating liquors as a beverage, In tbe aforesaid county, in which you have been elected chief vindicator of the law." (23 names of Berwick ladies arc signed to the above. ) "Tho W. 0. T.

In the name ot God and Homo wo do hereby petition you that you grant no license in Columbia county at the January term of court." (13 names of ladles ot Ligbtstreet signed to the above.) "To tbe Hon.

We appeal to you as a neighbor whom we found ever kind and ready to assist us ; as a schoolmate whoso warm sympathy has ever been with us, and as a friend upon whom we feci we can de. pend for assistance we so sadly need. It is not necessary for us to picture tho evils of intemperance, for, llko us, you have seen hearthstones made wretched, fond hopes blasted, Intellects buried In oblivion, and the reeling staggering forms ot God's Image have led us to exclaim "A direful pestilence is In the land I" Wo do there fore most earnestly entreat and Imphro you to be more cautious In tho granting of licenses to sell Intoxicants than has bsen ' done heretofore ; and use your Influence and authority at all times against a busi ness which Is so wrong in principle, un christian In method and disastrous in re sults. May strength be given you for the carrying out ot every good and noblo pur poso, is our prayer." (28 names.) After Mr. Howell bad read these petitions, speeches were made by .Messrs. Zarr, Buck ingham, Maize, Freeze, Elncll, aud It. It Little, on behalf of applicants, and Mr. Howell closed the argument (or exceptants. The Court overruled the exceptions to the Jurisdiction. Jud,to Ikeler said : "In Glnrlch's Application, 3 Pa. 0. 0, It., 800, the query was'suggested whether the provision ot the act or 1887, requiring that sureties on the bond should be signers of the petition is still in tone. Wo bad here, tofore taken pains to ascertain what was the drift of thu debate in the legislature on the passage of the Brooks bill, which be came the act ot thirteenth May, 1887, or tbe new llquor.law, as it is called, under which tho pretent applicants petition this court for license. We find that section six ot the bill contained a provision similar to that Just mentioned but that this was thought unnecessary and was not embodied lh,tlio law. Where Ihero is conflict, or repugnancy, between an old and a new act of the legit lature, the latter expression of the will ot thu peoplo by their representatives must prevail, and'thc old uot Is therefore so far repealed as it Is inconsistent with tbo new, In th light of this principle of construe tk' , and considering tbe course of legls latlon on this subject tho mischief and tho remedy noting that tbo new act is in a number ot particulars different from the old providing, for example, a different manner ot publication, a different amount of bond, a different time for tbo hearing ot applications a difference that has been thoroughly discussed in tho arguments of counsol we are constrained to regard tbe oli I laws abrogated In all points relied tip. on to sustain the exception to our jurlsdla. tton, and to hold also that tbo petitions (so far as our attention has been called to them) aro sufficient, within tho letter of the act of 1837, though whether any applicant shall have granted to him tho prayer ot his petl tlon will be decided upon tho hearing of his application. As to tbo papers purporting to bo "mem orials," which wero handed to the court, and which havo been read by counsel, no think tnat no harsh censure should be pass ed upon tho signers, who undoubtedly act cd in good faith. The papers may be coo Sidcred as a slnglo memorial, for they all come from ono organization in the county, tbe Woman's Cbtlstlan Temperance Union, having branches in tbo sovcral towbllilps and boroughs. The ladles were late in com pletlng tho list of signatures, and sent their memorial by mall, as tho most direct way of arriving, without risk ot delay or ot mis carriage, In timo for presentation to tho court by their counsel, Mr. Howell. Wo think that theso memorialists ought to bo beard, and that tbo publto ought to know what they are doing. Just what is to bo tho effect of their memorial, or whether It shall havo any Influence iu determining the action of tbe court upon a given appllca. tlon is another thing. Tho papers aro too lato to bo recognized as remonstrances, regularly filed under tho rules of court; we regret this, because they aro manifestly the honest expression ot tho view of the sign ers and would bo entitled to some weight; ot course, tho request (in some of them) that no license shall bo granted to anybody anywhere in Columbia county can hardly be reasonably expected to abolish the act of 1887. We know and respect thu people who havo made this memorial, and wo say in response that wo desire to do our wholo duty as magistrates, to enforce all the laws us we find them. It any evils arise from our so doing, tho remedy Is with tho legis lature, and tbe people, who aro both soon to pass upon tbo main question Involved in all our llqtior-laws tho theory, or method, of dealing with tho llquor-trafllc." The cases ot John McDonald and Andrew Honey Jr., applicants for restaurant licenses in Centralla, were then heard. Itoney's hcuso has had a llccnso before. At 0:15 court adjourned until 0 o'clock Tuesday morning. On Tuesday morning at 9 oclock, the court convened, Judgca Ikeler and Mo Henry on tbe bench. Mr. Howell read a letter from tho Presi dent of the W. C. T. U. of Lightstreet, to Bhow bis authority for appearing in oppo sition to license applications, and stated that he would cross-examine all witnesses called in new cases. The caso of A. Colo & Bon, new appll. cants for distillery license in Bugarloat was taken up. Mr. Buckingham objected to tbo cross-examination of wituesscs by Mr. nowell in cases where no remonstrance has been filed. The court ruled that Mr. Howell had the right to do so. Several witnesses wero called to prove the necessity for the place. No witnesses wero called in opposition to the license Grovannl Buccl, new applicant for res taurant in Sugarloaf, was next called, and a number of witnesses hoard. No witness es called in opposition. E. P. Albcilson, applicant for hotel at Central. Witnesses called on behalf of ap plicant. None in opposition. Mr. Albert son kept the Ikeler stand at Benton, last year. U. A. Smith, new applicant for whole saler in Beaver. Witnesses called for ap plicant, none In opposition. Alfred Kantz, new applicant for restau rant in Benton. Witnesses called for ap plicant, none in opposition. C. B. Ikeler, new applicant for hotel In Benton, (old Ikeler stand). Witnesses heard, no opposition. John L. Crawford, applicant for old Eck rote stand at Ligbtstreet. Witnesses heard, no opposition. The abovo cases wero all held under ndvtsemcnt. Johu Jameson, applicant for license at Manor Best Inn, Jarrcson City. After hearing witnesses the court continued tbe application until the first day ot May court, at which time, upon proof of the comple tion of tbo buildings, tbo license will bo granted. The application of J. B. Mann, for hotel in Centre was then heard. To this a re monstrance had been filed In proper time. Mr, Wlnterstcen represented the remon strance. John Gruvcr, J. K. Fowler, Clinton Bittenbender, Thomas Brobst wero called on behalf of tho applicant. Mr, Maize presented an additional petition con. taining 52 names, stating that they -tero all voters of tbe township. Tho remon strance contained 33 names, two of whom Mr Maize alleged were non-residents. Ou behalf of the remonstrants the follow, log witnesses were called: Hugh Winner, Harvey Edwards, T. B. Trowbridge, John Miller, Wallace Bittenbender, Daniel Lay cock. In rebuttal, Mr. Mann and his daughter testified. The substance of tbo testimony for the applicant was that tbe house was necessary as a public bouse, that Mann kept a good house, and waB a fit person to keep a hotel; that he was in poor health and unable to do anything else. The testimony ot the witnesses against tbe license, was In sub stance, that the app'icuut was not a man ot tempcrata habits, and that ho has been con victed in this court within tbe past year for selling to minors. Aftor remarks by coun sel the court refused the license, on the ground that tho applicant had not shown himself a fit person to have a license, as some of his own witnesses admitted seeing him Intoxicated within tho past few days. 'Tho case has been well managed'' said tbe court, "and we cannot but think that bis couusel were surprised at tbo testimony of bis witnesses. We think it would be doing great Injustice to tho law were wo to say that this application has been made out, and It Is therefore rejected. Tbo prepon- uerance 01 oviuenco is strongly against tne applicant." juugo iiceicr men announced that all other applications were granted except Bponcnberg's of Berwick, not yet hoard, anu several new oucs in uentraua, wnicn would await Judge Murphy's arrival. The following business was transacted during tne sessions of tbo license court : James tu. smith appointed guardian of b. B. Kurtz. Private sale in estate ot Martha liartman deceased, contlrmed. G.

F, Bponeberg of Berwick was taken up, all tho judgis being on tbe bench. Judge Murphy was sufficiently recovered to come up on Tuesday evening. A remonstrance was Hied In HponenberK's case, and the fol lowing witnesses wero called to sustain it 1 flpnrirn Jnhn. W. Ttnu.hni IV IToina, Mrs. Yanhouten, George Clemens', Howard Kliue. B.

The court thought that the testimony of the witnesses gave Bponenberg an excellent record as a landlord, and sunounced that tue license was granted. This was received with applause. The remonstrance had six names on It and an additional petition filed at Ihn tiucfln, nn l.nhulf nf I. 11, contained over a hundred.
