No information has come stating that taxes have been increased in a single town now dry in Indiana because the saloons have gone out.-""-" The Anti-Saloon League of Ohio maintained a standing challenge of a reward of $100 for satisfactory information that any Ohio drv town had increased the tax rate because of that fact. 0 Whenever a saloon in Wayne county pays one dollar in taxes it produces the necessity of an expenditure of at least $2.04.
