Mr. Justice Moore.

We will refer to plaintiffs in error as commissioners and to defendant in error by name.

Johnson applied to the commissioners as the liquor licensing authority in El Paso county for the issuance of a package liquor store license in premises serving the community known as Security, located about eight miles south of Colorado Springs. The commissioners denied the application and on review by certiorari the trial court reversed the commissioners holding that denial of Johnson’s application was arbitrary and capricious, and entered judgment ordering the license to issue.
