TO TEST LOCAL OPTION LAWS.

Counsel for Saloon Man will Contend the New Act Nullifies the Moore Amendment. Greenfield, Ind., Oct. 13.—John Daily has given notice that he will apply for a liquor license at the November term of commissioners’ court, the business to be conducted in the First ward. This is presumed to be a test of the new county local option law, as it is said the attorneys for the applicant will contend that this law does away with the remonstrance. Thia is the last saloon license in this ward to expire since the blanket remonstrance was filed last March. The sufficiency of the remonstrance has never been contested here and all the saloons in the ward closed as their licenses expired.
