He seldom did so. The commanding

had chosen his son-in-law's apartment
on this night, as his hilltop. The tele

roles of spy-glass and courier. Just

Columbus, O., Aug. 19.-One of the
most important matters to be discuss
ed and voted on by the annual meet
ing of the Ohio Liquor League, which
opened two days session here today,
will be the resolution proposed by
State President William Seckel, or
Cleveland, to levy a monthly per CAPT
ia tax of 25 cents from all retailers for
the purpose of maintaining a bureau
to ferret out illegal traffickers in Ii
quor. 1t is believed that the strict en-
forcement of the new state liquor Ii
cense law will force a number of re-
tailers out of business and incidental
ly prove an incentive for some to en-
gage in Bookkeeping or the main
tenance of speakeasies. The resolu-
ton referred to was suggested with a
view of suppressing this illegal traf-
fick.
