Savannah. Ca. Jan. 22.-Indictment under the provisions of the Georgia prohibition law Is promised all near beer" dealers who. by next Tuesday, have failed to pay-the State license tax on near beer selling.
 This "big. stick" method of collect ing the tax Is expected to bring every cent of such taxes into the county oFdinary's office before the time limit Is up.
 Fred Raar. whose store was raided last night, was indicted today, and Judge Walter G. Charlton. in his charge to the grand jury declared that the recent appearance in his courtroom of a drunken juror proved that liquor WAS obtained within the vicinity of the court house and urged the grand jury to get after those who failed to pay the near beer tax.
 Solicitor General Hartridge gets sev- eral daily reports from the ordinary's office and keeps lists of those who have paid the tax. If the list does not agree on Tuesday. indictments will fol- low.
