GRAND ISLAND. April 16. The county
board met today for the special purpose of
granting aalorm licenses. The application
of John C. C. Hann for IJon Grove, a
resort on Wood river, not quite two miles
south of the city, was refused, owing to
the fact that the law prohibits the county
board from granting licenses within two
miles of the city, and at the same time
prohibits the city authorities from granting
auch license. Consequently taarre are twit
places of the kind, running without license,
on the club plan, by the simple payment of
8'3 government license. In the Hann case
the board also did not act, for the reason
that the petition was not signed by a ma
jority of the freeholders.
