Syllabus

<p>Liquor law — Wholesale license — Insufficiency of notice — Newspaper notice — Act of July SO, 1897, P. L. J/.67 — Jurisdiction.</p> <p>A license to sell liquor at wholesale cannot be granted where notice of the application has been published in only two newspapers instead of three as required by the Act of July 30, 1897, P. L. 467. The mere fact that a third paper published as a matter of news the names of the applicants for liquor licenses, will not give the court jurisdiction, inasmuch as the statutory requirements are mandatory, and the court has no jurisdiction if they are not strictly complied with.</p>
