LIQUOR LAW VIOLATIONS.
Good Citizens state League tn Take a
Hand In Local Affairs.

There was a meeting of the executive
committee OF the Good Citizens State
League yesterday. at which the violations Of
. the liquor laws in this city wer9 considered.
The league has received information that
the laws are being violated and the situation
is assuming the old careless condition of the
old days. The discussion of this informa-
tion was formal and no action was taken,
but from the expressions il was seen that
the league proposes to take a hand in local
affairs and call the public's attention TO the
true state Of affairs.
The reports made TO the committee indi-
cate the league TO be growing in strength
and membership The public will be sur
prised one of these days. said a member
ito learn Of our strength. We are we'll or
ganized now throughout the State. and we
are prepared 10 stand forward for good gov
ernment"
President Nicholson has been making an
active canvass In the interest OF the league
during the last month. He has perfected
organizations in all of the counties of the
State. The talk of establishing league pa

Arthur Gillette. general manager OF the

try which will be more benefited by steady,
reasonable rates than indianapolis. Some
shippers may think differently. but il they

my position. When rates not main
tained indianapolis is the first TO suffer,
and iit is the last to benefit in any rate war
which may come up. Chicago. Peoria ana
81. Louis often get n better rate FOR weeks
than does indianapolis. although Indian
apoiis, in every respect, has the advantage
as shipping point over either of the
points named, being on the most direct line
70 the seaboard and having the shortest
lines. A rate of 1872 cents per loo pounds
on grain and flour Is reasonable one
and shippers at Indianapolis will not raise
murmur If, at points like St Louis and
Chicago, shippers are Obliged TO pay pro-
portionate rate, but when shippers at those
points get a lower rate than does the In
dianapolis shipper the latter is practically
driven out of the market. | have always
noticed that whenever freight rates at
points west OF here are held to tariff the IN
dlanapolis shippers are able TO do proht-
able business. If the Indianapolis lines
when convinced that roads at st. Louis
Peoria or Chicago were manipulating
rates, would meet such rates shippers at
indianapolis would not suffer materially
but this is never the. case. The rates at
Indianapolis are held up for weeks when il
Is known that at other points they are
cut For that reason IL would benefit In
dianapolis shippers more than those at any
Western railroad point"
