A tax of 10 mills for the year l!M! was voted at a meeting of tho Koseburg school din trict, at tho Lane sehoolhouoo this aft ernoon. As in past years, tho most em spicuous feat urn of the mooting was the small attendnnee. There were pres ent just Hi taxpayers, and of this nnni ber 14 voted for the levy and tho ro niaining two against it. The levy, whieh is twice that voted for the year now closing, applies on n district property valuation of '- 175.410. This if in round numbers 0. 000 less than the valu: tion of 1!07, a decrease which nobodv appeared to be nblo to aeeount for.

TEST GEORGIA NEARfBEER LAW "Blind Tigers" Seriously Injure Trade of SubstI stitute Stands AUGUSTA, (la., Jan. ,1. Nearly 200 dealera ia " tWu per-eent, ' ' a brewery product, are directly interested in (ho tent ease of tho "near bor" tax which comes up today. A heavy tax ImB been imposed oil the dealer.- n "near-beer," which beverage is largely sold in Geor gia undor the prohibition regime, and tho test case will have au important bearing on tho traffic. The Georgia brand of "uearbeer" looks liko beer, tastes Vm beer, smells like beer, is mnde by breweries and -s put up in beer botti-. a. Vet it is claim d that it contains loss than 2 per cent alcohol and therefor-? does not intoxi cate. lie fore the prohibition law went into effort about !." beer H.i'. oim wore doing ltnsiuei:s in Augusta, win re nn at the I-resent time only ab.uit 10 are selling 'near-beer.' It will therefore be seen that the sale of the latter variety is ne nearly so extensive ati the sale of re.il beer. The brewers figure that a man will never take ' ' near hoe;,' ' no matter how excellent itti legitimate quality, if it is pocsihle Jur li i ut to procure (he "real thing." And much of the latter is be ing sold, despite the prohibition law, :'ud despite the fact that, many people have come to derive limited satisfaction from the use of "near-beer." "Blind Tigers" Hurt Trade. Ilreweries in other slates ship real beer to Georgia "blini tigers." Geor gia breweries must, prrtoree, manufac ture none other than ''near-beer," and this product, needless to sav, finds slow sale anywhere save in localities where the prohibition law in rigidly enforced. lJroweries in Georgt i mbst now pro duce "near-beer," o: violate the law. Although the quality of material used in its production is, of course, inferior lo that, which is used in making beer of tho real variety, the aggregate cost of production is practically tho same. Main teiiance expenses at the large plants have not decreased, and although "near beer" is sold for almod the same price for higher class goods this increase is overbalanced by the decrease in extent of r.ales and the undiminished cost of product ion. It is stated by a prominent, local brew er that there has thn far been no or ganized movement among brewers against t he prohibition law, but that almost, every plant in any wise affected by its enactment li-is been seriously hurt.
