Hanly's Views Get Blow From Foes of Liquor.
Indianapolis, Nov. 18.—-fn spite of the urgent appeal by former Gov. I- Frank Hanly that the prohibition forces in Indiana put their fight against liquor on a political basis, the omnipartisan convention in Tomlinson Hall late yesterday afternoon adopted resolutions directly opposite to his wishes. Hanly declared to the convention Tuesday evening that the fight against the sale of liquor necessarily is a political one, but the convention, dominated by the Indiana Anti-Saloon League, took the opposite view and, after a sharp debate on the subject, adopted the resolutions as presented by the committee without a dissenting vote. S. E. Nicholson of Richmond, was chairman of the convention.
