Important Decision, For some time the proprietors of opera houses and theatrical companies have been uneasy over the fear that un. der an act of the assembly a license of $50 would have to be paid in every county. The act is rather vague and uncertain. On Monday Mr. Greenberg, manager of the Huntingdon opera house, came to Bellefonte and submit. ted the matter to Judge Furst for con- sideration. On Wednesday the court rendered an opinion to the effect that proprietors of opera houses ware to pay an annual license of 850 to the county treasurer, and that no license fee need be paid by the companies giving enter. tainments. This seems to be the reasonable con struction of the law and it is about the proper thing. Auditors Statement, The annual statement of the Auditors of Centre county appears in another por. tion of this issue. When we started on this job it was our intention to have sup- plements printed for the various papers of the county for their issues of this week, Unexpected delays in having portions of the report completed for the printer made the time too short.
