RANGIORA LICENSING COURT.
At the adjourned quarterly meeting of the Licensing Court for the Bangiora district, on Tuesday, March 16th, the Commissioners present were 0. Whitefoord, Esq. (chairman), A. H. Cunningham, J. C. Boys, and S. Htywood, E;qs. A temporary transfer of the license of the Junction Hotel was granted from J. W. Francis to George Hoxell. In reference to the complaint of the police agaimt the licensee of the Bed Lion Hotel, Mr Grcsson, who appeared, hoprd the Commissioners would not be influenced by the general and vague accusations of the police to the effect that drunken men had been seen about, for the best proof that they had been so seen would have been their conviction for that offence before the Bench. The hotel wss one of the best conducted in town, and it was unfair that the licensee should be complained of. The chairman pointed out that the licensee must be held responsible for the proper order of his house and premises, and warned him not to> allow drunken persons to remain about.
