Primary to Determine t"he Question
of Issuing Saloon License.
It appears that there is to be a re-newal
oil he agitation over the whiskey
question, which has so stirred Greens-boro
at Intervals for the past two years.
After the defeat of the dispensary last
August it was thought, as a matter of
course, thai saloons would again be li-censed
in Greensboro in accordance

wish of a-majority "of the people as
expressed at toe polls, but occurrences
of the past fe« days indicate that the
authorities will have pressure brought
to bear on tueui tonot issue any license
whatever.

a mass meeting was held in the court

All the buyers seem to be very hun-gry

for several years.

He suggests an issue of
