James Robert?, former local
resident, in a letter to the Her
ald dated April 3, announced
hs early departure from Sheri
don, Manitoba, where he has
been for several years in
charge of the Burns company
meat business.
Mr. Roberts says Sheridon “is
finished” until such time as

eventuality which seem, to him
to be rather “far off.” He was
planning to go to Chilliwack,

inadequate” and recommended
the building cf a new home as
quickly as possible.
The beer and wine bill was
introduced in both houses last
week. The measure was ad
mittedly imperfect and intend
ed merely as a working basis
for action by the Legislature.
The bill as presented author
ized sale of beer and wine by
hotels, boarding houses, buf
fets and other public eating
places which have been in con
tinuous operation at least one
year prior to April 7; also by
beverage dispensaries, in which
draft beer or beer in uncapped
bottles may be served at tab
les. License of $50 for each
type of establishment.
Also provides that beer and
wine may be sold by all retail
stores in original packages but
must not be consumed on the
premises. License of $25 per
year imposed.
The measure fixes a $200 li
cense for breweries and bot
itling plants engaged in bot
tling beer and wine are taxed
$100. Wholesalers dealing on
ly with retail stores or licensed
establishments would pay a
$50 license fee.
The bill also provides an ex
cise tax on all beer and wine
produced, manufact u r e d,
brewed, fermented, bottled or
imported for sale cr gift, at the
rate of $2.50 for each 31-gal
lcn barrel, or one cent for each
pint and 2 cents for each quart
if bottled.
As the measure was merely
tentative as presented, it will
probably be altered consider
ably before receiving final ap
proval.
