The regular boarders at all the hotels
who have bee n notified to leave at once
are greatly distressed by reason of their
inability to find suitable lodging places
elsewhere, Many of them are bing
taken care of by personal friends. The
landlords justify their action by declar-
ing that without license they cannot af
ford to keep their honses open. It is
feared that the success of the proposed
celebration of the county’s centennial an-
niversary, to be held in September,
will be seriously interfered with in con.
sequence of the hotels being closed to
the public.
