Syllabus

<p>Opinion by Rice, P. J., February 24, 1915:</p> <p>The questions involved in the assignments of error in this appeal are the same as those considered in the appeal of H. D. Reiners, and, for the reasons there given, the assignments of error are overruled and the order is affirmed.</p> <p>Grube’s License.</p> <p>Liquor law~Distiller’s license — Necessity—Accommodation of the public — License detrimental to public good — Opinion—Refusal of license.</p> <p>1. An. order of the quarter sessions refusing a distiller's license without an opinion filed will not be reversed where the order is as follows: “And now after a full hearing both on the part of the petitioners for and the remonstrants 'against the granting of a license to the within applicant, and after due and careful consideration of the case, taking into consideration the number and character of both the petitioners for and the remonstrants against, the within license is refused.”</p> <p>2. An allegation in a remonstrance against an application for a distiller’s license to the effect that the license or the place to be licensed is not necessary for the accommodation of the public, is utterly irrelevant and immaterial, and should be given no weight whatever by the license court; but the court is bound to consider an objection to the effect that the granting of the license will be detrimental to the public good.</p>
