dence Against whisky Dealers from
q United States Official.
LEAvENwoRTH, KANs, October %. - The
Kansas state temperance union made a raid on
the Office Of the collector of internal revenue
here and attempted to compel Collector Acres
to furnish them with list of Kansas retail liquor
dealers to whom tax stamps have been issued
and to furnish certified copies Of the affidavits
made by the liquor dealers when they take out
stamps to the effect that they are or intend to
engage In the liquor business. Ii is estimated
that there are now about l, 200 retail liquor
dealers in the state who have government per-
mits but have not complied with the state pro-
hibition law, and the state temperance union
wants the evidence from this collectors office
to be used in prosecuting them. The collector
appealed to Joseph S. Miller, commissioner of
internal revenue, who in his answer directs
Acres not to furnish the desired Information,
and in case of a subpoena being issued to re-
quest the United States district attorney TO
state to the court that the papers i'm question
are intended by the law To aid in the collection
of internal revenue: and that they are privi-
legged from disclosure on the ground OF public
policy
