The measure enacted by the legisla-
cure last winter provides that drug
Igists shall number consecutively all
applications for liquor. These num-
bered applications must be filed each
month with the county auditor, who
must keep record of the number of
every blank issued. And they must
correspond with stubs to be kept by
the druggists open to inspection at
any time. By looking over the num-
bered applications the county attor-
ney will be able to discover just how
much liquor has been sold by each
druggist, and how many times sales
have been made to the same person.
The bill specifies the form of applica-
ton to be used and requires that
when the applicant for liquor is I'M
known 20 the druggist, the applica-
ton must also be signed by witness.
