At the meeting: of the County Court at HUlsboro in September there were two petitions for renewal of hotel liquor licenses one from Banks, the other from Buxton. The latter was withdrawn early, but J. M. Miller, of Banks, put up a stubborn fight, re' sultin? in the court ruling: that he had not the required majority of Eisners from qualified electors in the Banks precinct. Several of Miller's 6igrners were sworn off for various reasons, principally In that they were under age, had not naturalized, or had signed both petition and remonstrance. More' over, it was asserted there were over 700 voters In the precinct. This Mr. Miller denied, and once put his peti tlon In circulation again. The Buxton petition also Is In cir culation. Miller has close on to 400 signers. The Prohibitionists are centralizing their strength against Miller as their most formidable opponent, so that a lively session of the County Court may be expected at HlllsDoro .November 5. Incidentally, charges and counter charges of fraud, duress and perjury are belrg circulated. If Banks and Buxton go " dry" wash' ing-ton County, outside of HUlsboro, will be out of the "wet" column, and in the county seat the battle has been started with animation.
