DUNNVILLE STILL “DRY.”

Remonstrance Again Successful In DefeatingApplicant tor License. In the application of George Brett for a saloon license at Dunnville, which came up before the county commissioners Monday, a remonstrance had been filed containing 74 names, a majority of 19. Of this number the applicant succeeded in securing 20 withdrawls, but the remonstrators got six of the withdrawing remonstrators to re-sign, which gave tbem a majority of 5, and the license was denied. The general opinion seemed to be op to last week that no fight would be made against Mr. Brett, and that he would have no trouble in securing his license. A license was granted George Strickfaden of this city, the remonstrance filed against him some two months ago being held insufficient.
