EDTToE GAZETTE: We have had a week Of local
interest. The fall rains have commenced. Our
streets are almost impossible Our new Road So
peryisor has evidently in a mistaken intention to
improve them, rendered them quhgmirv ut for
planting tarO OF nice.
On Thursday last thirteen cases Of liquor arrived
consigned to c. Y. Aiona-ale, brandy whiskey
and gin. The sheriff, under Section 81 of the new
liquor law made the necessary affidavit, and pro
cured search warrant, with which he sent his
subordinaies TO the store Of c. Y. Aiona. Upon
searching the premises they found thirteen cases
of the prohibited article. Aona claimed the va
rious liquors seized IN part as his own. for his
own use, and the remainder a. the property of
others, who had paid their money and gave or
ders for the same that said liquors were con
signed TO him for delivery, ana that he claimed but
one case Of ale and . bottles Of brandy for his
own use The trial came of ON saturday morning
before the Police Justice. Aiuul proved that the
liquors had been ordered, the MONEY paid that
the said liquors had been purchased ia Honolulu
and forwarded 10 him by the LBsils. He pro-
duced the letters Of his agent In Honolulu and bis
books, showing al these facts There was no eyi-
dence given on the part Of the Crown. The Police
Justice reserved his decision until Monday at
10 A.. N. At the time and place indicated he prob
ably decided that AiOua should keep, or rather be
returned, the liquor FOR bis fss and that those
purchased by him t1r ofhars, u.dfF .T1ifs, should
be cOnfscated.
The claimants and owners Of said liquors made
a written demand on the sheriff, Severance for the
return of the same. lie declined and ten new law
suits against him will be the consequence.
This will bring up the question under the new
law, whether man can give an order 10 his com
mission merchant and purchase liquors for his
own use from licensed dealer IN Honolulu. With
a less stupid sheriff and eXpOunder Of the law in
Hilo, there would be no question about the matter
