C, May 20. Because of ' the expiration of county licenses for the sale of near beer on June the first and that the act prohibiting its sale becoming effective on the first day of July there has been a question raised to the issuing of license for one month It has been the ruling that there could be no prorating of licenses by the month and under this rule it would have been necessary for all sellers of near beer to take out a li cense for the entire year, while the time in which it could have been used would have been only one month of June. This matter was called to the attention of tSate Treasurer Lacy who decides that license may be is sued for one month. In regard to this he has sent out to the sheriffs ofthevarious counties the following letter: "By the advice of the Attorney General, I have decided to rule that the sheriffs will issue near beer li cense for the month of June and on account of the conflict in the law, but it must not be understood except when the law conflicts that I will agree to pro rate a license." The matter of licenses by towns and cities remains as heretofore, in the hands of their governing bodies.
