liquor business after the expiration of said two months, he, she
or they shall be deemed guilty of selling liquors without license
and be liable to the penalties therefor; provided, however, that

passed and adopted. And no license shall be granted to any
person whose license has been or may be revoked or sup-
pressed under the now existing law until two years shall have
