Saloons in Columbus Return Under Scott Law Provisions
Assessors report 303 saloons in Columbus returned to the county auditor as likely to operate under the Scott law. It is believed about four-fifths will sell liquor and pay the 200 tax, with total city and county tax intake near 50000 if 200 pay the full amount while others pay the reduced rate. Some establishments have paused operations awaiting the Supreme Court ruling on the law's constitutionality.
