NO LIQUOR BOUGHT AT WILSON AS YET Probably Will Not Be Until Next Week, When Stores Are To Open Dally Dispatch Bereac, la the S»r Walter Hotel. BY J. C. BASKERVILL. Raleigh, June 27—The Wilson coun ty liquor commission has not yet pur chased any liquor, hot even on con signment, and the first liquor store probably will not be opened until next wek, Chairman T. H. Woodard, of the board of county commissioners in Wilson county, told this correspondent today in a long distance conservation. If any carloads of liquor have arrived there yet he does not know about it, and none of it was ordered by the county liquor commission, he said. “The only liquor here that I know of is what the bootleggers have, and there seems to be plenty of that.” Chairman Woodard said. “But the county liquor commission has not yet even organized and decided what it is going to do and has not placed any orders for any liquor yet.” Despite the suggestion of some peo ple that the county should go ahead and operat its liquor stores, even if the Supreme Court should hold the present liquor acts unconstitutional, Wilson county will close up its liquor stores if the Supreme Court holds their operation illegal.

Raleigh, June 27.—80th the sales tax and liquor are going to be big issues in the campaign for the nom ination for governor and lieutenant governor and the candidates that “get right” with the public first on these two importan questions will be the ones nominated in the Democratic primary next June, according to most observers here. While none of the four present candidates for governor and two candidates for lieutenant governor have publicly had anything to say albout either the sales tax or the liquor question, the opinion is that all of them are going to have to take a definite position on both of these questions eventually. A good many here believe that the sooner the various candidates declare them selves on these two questions of the sales tax and prohibition, the better off they will be.
