ation, which to the |
{ were placed on the rack by Judge
O'Connor. No remonstrances or com-
| plaints had been entered against any
‘of them, and it isan admitted fact that
| the hotels of Patton are conducted on
'a higher plane and with more regard
| for the law than any other place in the
(county.
There were a number of hotel men
| in the north of the county, however,
who were placed on the rack and made
to give an account of themselves, and
| the judge plainly intimated that fewer
and not more licenses would be granted
in certain sections after this year.
Judge O’Connor also took occasion
to inform the hotel men present what
he considered their duty, and said that
many owners of property had demand-
ed increased and even exhorbitant ren-
tals because of the fact that persons
holding or desiring a lease at their
hands had been granted a license. His
honor stated further that he would
consider any attempt or threat at ex-
tortion upon the part of any owner of
a property just cause for refusing or
revoking a license.
During his remarks the judge laid
down the requirements of the law in
pretty severe terms. He said that
many complaints had been submitted
to him, and that it seems readily ap-
parent that there are many violations
of the law by those who have secured
legal permits to engage in the sale of
intoxicants.
“The duties of every person who en-
gages in the sale of liquor are so clearly
impressed,not only by a general know-
ledge of the law, but the clear injunc-
tions of this court to every individual
who engages in this business, that
there can be no excuse for violation |
other than wanton indifference. To all
those to whom this applies we will
state that it is the intention of this
court to carefully look after and make
them examples of retribution by the
law.
“Wholesale dealers must not employ
agents to solicit trade from other than
retail dealers. Violations of this feat-
ure of the law have been numerous in
the past, but it is the intention of this
court to break up such transactions.
In almost every district, we are in-
formed, wholesalers have agents em-
ployed who go from house to house
and solicit orders,especially in districts
where corporations have large forces
of men employed. This must be dis-
continued, and any further violations
will be summarily disposed of.
“Retail liquor dealers must not em-
ploy undue means to encourage pat-
ronage at the bars of their respective
establishments. In some instances it
is reported that brass bands, orchestras
and sundry,music devices have been
added to establishments at times,
forming an attractive feature for the
place, and encouraging the sale of
drink. It is not the desire of this court
to create more of a demand for intoxi-
cants than is already supplied in this
county.
“Elaborate tree lunches form another
objectionable feature to the law re-
quirements in certain localities. Selling
on credit and exchanging liquor for

violations of the law in this respect
have been reported. Retail dealers

ble persons to lounge about or loaf in
They must sup-
press vulgarity and profanity, and
must not permit women or boys to
act as bartenders. Violations are also
| reported to be quite numerous in these
respects, and we wish to impress on all
jthose who secure liquor license this
| year that they must observe these re-
| quirements.”
