| sion of the liquor trafic-he has no hest
tation whatever to become an informer.
In the ethics of Col. Bradbury to give
| information against violators of law to
the prosecuting officer is contemplate; to
give information to the public against
violators of the law for the purpose OF
defeating a man who has habitualiy
| performed all the duties of his office
faithfully, and electing man who has
| habitually ignored one of the most i'm
portant of the duties of the office which
| he now holds is reputable and praise
| worthy.
Now word in regard to Col. Brad
bury's allegations. No doubt the bot
tiers receive beer and sell it. But the
beer is not of the sort covered by our
statute. 1t is an imitation of lager beer,
and is known as Uno and Lithia. When
they began to deal in it Sheriff Cram
made seizure of it, but the courts re-
fused to condemn it, on the ground that
it did not come within the statute, being
neither a malt liquor nor Intoxicating.
Of course the sheriff could no longer
continue to make seizures of it. Within
a week the establishments of both these
bottlers have been thoroughly searched
and nothing seizable found.
In regard to the alleged sale of
whiskey under the shadow of the statue
of Peace, it is possible that Col. Brad
bury knows his statement to be true. 1t
is highly probable, however, that he is
simply repeating some loose statement
which he has heard, and that if he were
summoned before the grand jury he
would confess that he really knew moth
ing about it. Undoubtedly some liquor
is sold in Portland, in spite of the vigil
lance of the sheriffs, and some may be
sold in Market Square. But all that is
sold is sold secretly and in small quanti-
ties, and the greatest precautions are
taken by the men who sell it. The en-
tire suppression of the sale of liquor in a
place as large as Portland is practically
| impossible. The question is not whether
Sheriff Cram has succeeded in stopping
all illegal sales, but whether he has to
the best of his ability with the force
at his command enforced the prohibitory
law. Up to within few weeks the
Democrats themselves admitted that he
had, and their complaint against him was
that he had labored altogether too vigor-
ously in that direction. The discovery
that be had not done his full duty was
made about the time of the discovery
that the denunciation of him for being
too radical was strengthening him in the
country. Indeed it is the exact truth to
say that the alleged s'let up'' ON the part
of the sheriff is a pure invention OF the
rum Democrats for political purposes, lin
short that it is lie pure and simple.
