While all good people rejoice that de-
termined effort is being made to stop the
sale of intoxicating liquors in Barre, or, at
least, to make 1t most hazardous occupa.
tion the officers who directed the general
search last Wednesday evening have been
criticised in some quarters because of the
route they covered in their raid. One citi.
zen OF Barre, who ought to know whereof
he speaks, told the WATCHMAN reporter that
several notorious places, almost within a
stones throw of some of the places
carbohydrates where it is almost certain
liquor would have been fouDd-were not
molested, while other places that have not
been suspected of violating the law were
searched with the utmost diligence. NO
one, so far as known, accuses the officers OF
the law of intentionally shielding any
dealer but the fact that they especially
the Barre officers could not plan more
effective raid has occasioned considerable
comment
