A bill that will meet with the ap
proval of the licensed liquor dealers
but which is likely to be frowned upon
by the itinerant sellers of vinous, malt
and brewed liquors, was introduced in
the House last week by Representative
Leopold Fuerth, of this county. The
bill is intended to protect those who are
forced to pay a license to do business
against agents who secure their orders
by office to office and house to house
visits, selling entirely from samples.
Representative Fuerth's bill specifies
that no person, firm or corporation,
shall sell wines, malt or brewed liquors
within the state by sample, without first
having obtained a license therefor.
Such licenses are to bo granted by the
state treasurer and will be known as
"Sample Liquor Merchants Licenses."
Licenses will cost $100. Convicted viola
tors of the statute will be fined not less
than $100 nor more than $1,000.

known as "The Point," at the junction
of the West Branch and the Dyberry,
near the foot of.East Park street ; a lot

of the Torrey estate. The building will
be spacious in length and breadth, but
economy will be observed in the matter

luck, and to its capitalists to lend all
the aid and encouragement in their power
to the new enterprise.
