Syllabus

<p>Liquor laws — Remonstrance—Continuance of case — Act of June 9, 1891.</p> <p>Although the act of June 9, 1891, P. L. 257, requires the court to fix a time for hearing applications for liquor licenses, the hearing may be adjourned to a subsequent day, to suit the convenience of the court or of the applicants or remonstrants.</p> <p>The court is not required to grant a license because the number of petitioners in favor of the application greatly exceeds the number opposed to it.</p>
