PORTLAND, Ind, Nov. 29.-The anti
saloon League of Portland. organized some
months ago, is showing considerable activ-
ity, and in consequence the saloon keepers
of the town are feeling somewhat anxious.
The plans of the league, which held a meet
ing last night. are being formulated with a
good deal of secrecy, but it is said the Eight
will be carried on until every saloon in
Portland is driven out. 1t is assumed. from
this, that an effort will be made to secure
the signatures of a majority of the resi-
dents of the different wards in which sa-
looms are located to a remonstrance against
their being granted licenses. Violations Of
the liquor law are being looked after. Carl
Harris was arrested and fined $40 and costs
for selling to a minor, and a case against
James @. Vanvlerah, a similar offense be-
ing alleged. is now pending. Several per-
sons expect to apply for license to the
Board of County Commissioners next week,
and II is currently reported that remon-
strances are In preparation and that a
sharp fight will be waged to prevent any
OF these being granted.
