Washington county must still besaloonless, even if it may not be joiot-les- s.

The county court last week re-fused to grant a dramshop license toH. F. Jackson of Riohwoods, who waspresent with a petition for such II.cense. The antt-saioo- n people werealso on band with a remonstrancethat just about offset the petition ofthe saloouists. A peculiar feature oftbe cae was tbat twelve resident taxpayers of the towns nip had signedboth the petition and the remonstrauce. The couri very wisely refus-ed to consider tbe uames for eitherside. The court raNed the saloon license tax for county purposes to $800.Tuis with the addition of the statelicense tax, and city license lax, inthe event a saloon wanted to open inPotosi, would practically make it pro-hibitive to engage iu tbe business because of this expense.
