the week -end hece,'made the following
statement on Saturday with reference
to liquor interests in Huron. He said
"In North Huron the license commis
siouetarefused any licenses, Therefore
there should be no hotels open in that
riding.
"In Cerryyt�,ll'eHuron the coalmisioners
paused a i'Ssnlutiwi issuing licenses for
one year. We have notified then that
the resolution will be forthwith vetoed

The Toronto Star last Thursday

on its Eddtor5aly ,page, as May let

to close them.
'In South Huron the commissioners
extended the old licenses for three
months. The department has no power
to interfere in such cases, the commis -
*loners having the absolute 'authority
to snake the three months' extension
without reference to the department'
Hon. Mr. Hanna stated that Chief
Inspector Sanders is under instruction
to take action at once.
Commissioners Grant Three Months.
Goderich, May 4 —License commis.
siouere of Center Huron met here this
afternoon, rescinded their renewal of
licenses for a year, and granted the
holders extension for three months in
'°'•which time to sell out.
There was litttle argument on the
question as the commissioners saw no
other course to open them.
License holders have expressed sat -
faction with the decision, as have the
temperance people-
