Indianapolis. Ind, April Alt has
been learned that the Anti-Saloon
league is making efforts to influence
the committee on resolutions at the
republican state convention, which
will be held in this city next Tuesday,
to insert plank in the platform which
will be satisfactory to them on the SUBJ
ject Of temperance legislation. 1t was
given out by officers OF the league
some months ago that they would not
take any hand in the campaign except
to seek to elect men to the legislature
who would be opposed to any disturb
ance Of the present efficient temper
ance laws. They said they were not
going to have anything to do with the
convention or the making of nomina-
tions by either party this year but ev-
identity they have changed their mind,
for they are using their influence to
have declaration made which will
tie up the party on the temperance
question.
What They Propose.
1t is proposed by the leaders of the
Anti-Saloon league that the platform
shall declare against the repeal or
weakening of any Of the present tenn
perance laws in this state. They are
not asking for any new laws. They
do not need them. But what they
want is to save the present laws.
1t is understood that George B. Lock-
wood. of Marion. will be member Of
the committee on resolutions, which
frames up the platform, and it is re-
membered that short time ago Lock-
wood printed in his paper q statement
to the effect that nothing would please
mittee and force the adoption of a
plank which would make the very decla-
ration which is now proposed by the
anti-saloon league. Lockwood has
all along been fighter for the local
option cause, and those who know him
best. know what 1t means when he
goes into fight. He never quits I'M
less he is whipped SO hard that he
can't 60 any further. Whether Lock-
wood is in .'cahoots'' with the anti-sa-
loon league in this effort. to put
| through Sucu q plauk IS not hHOWH,
but their ideas run along the same gem
eral lines.
Don't Know Combination.
No one knows yet who will be the
members of the platform committee.
and the anti-saloon people have not
been able to find out, but they have
been calling on many of the party lead
ers and talking things over with them.
Whether the brewers are doing any
thing along that line is not known.
They also said some time ago that
they would not take any part In the
campaign as an organization They
said. however. that they would work
in the campaign as individuals. the
same as any other voter
