Deen, of the Fifth district, from Waycross, seeing that M are, his county, was accredited with ten of these licenses, sent his secreta ry to the Internal collector’s office Wednesday morning to find out who had government licenses to sell liquor In his county, which prohibits liquor selling by high licenses.
