Editor Enterprise:
Will you kindly allow me. through
your columns to offer a criticism up
on the action of the County Court in
ir-anting a license to sell spirituous
liquors to A. R McWilllams of 0

The facts in the case are as follows:
A man by the name of Patterson cir
culated a petition for a liquor license
;n Oswego in the early part of October.
After obtaining a mrmber of names,
he began publication of the petititon
in the Enterprise of October .T.th set
ting forth that he. Patterson would
apply to the County Coniri on the ;th
day of December. ItM, for a license to
sell liquors in Oswego, for a period
j of twelve months dating from the
Otb'day of December. 1905. This pe-
I tition, Patterson published in the En
terprise for three Consecutive weeks.
