WASHINGTON, Oct 14-Commis-
sioner Capers. of the Internal Revenue
Bureau, has under consideration the re-,
arrangement and consolidation for rev
enue collection purposes. of a number
of Southern and Southwestern States.
The constitution of Oklahoma, which
was recently adopted. absolutely pro-
hibits the sale of Intoxicating liquors
as a beverage within the states bor-
ders, and on January 1, 1908, complete
prohibition goes into effect in Geor-
gia. South Carolina, by recent ac-
ton of the state, is partly prohibition
and partly under the dispensary sys-
TEN.
TO meet these changed conditions
the Commissioner has in contemplation
the consolidation of oklahoma with Ar
kansas as one revenue division; Geor-
gia and South Carolina as another;
Mississippi and Louisiana and possibly
Alabama as a third. AS an alterna-
tive Alabama may be consolidated
with Florida.
Collector Goldsborough's office Is not
threatened. 1t includes Maryland,
Delaware, two counties of Virginia
and the District of Columbia: and
while Delaware is to vote prohibition
next November. and while the District
of Columbia may be. made dry" II
ever Congress is forced to vote on til.
subject, there is no present likelihood
that the Legislature of Maryland will
enact 2 law forbidding the manufac.
ture of whiskey or beer in Maryland
/ whatever restrictions may be PLACED
upon the sale.
