Can II BE True!

The burlington Independent OF las
week contains the following statemen
with reference to the prosecution %
tho state fish commissioners for 'fufh
ishing" liquor to the Legislative lunKc'
last fall in the interest of AN appropri
alton for the hatchery at RoSbury'
and il ought to be interesting to Inc
people who do not yet comprehend 'n'
infinite humbug of our prohibitory
legislation. The Independent says
Parties who claim to know, say that
Messrs. Warren and Titcomb not only
did not furnish the liquor for the lish
hatchery drunk. but that II was paid
for by the legislative committee who
in turn collected the money from inc
state of Vermont. The receiptcd bill
for the liquor is said To be in the
possession of Senator Allen from Rut
| land county.
The case as presented by the indict
mcnts against iiessrs. Titcomb and
Warren was bad enough and disgrace
full enough to Il "prohibition' state
but the Independents statment IT true
multiplies the shame of it many fold
Just think of it A legislature that
piled on the penalties and cNactlons OF
the prohibitory law until it has gone
beyond any semblancc of free and self
respecting government this very legls-
laturc that put on the finishing
touches to the system. not only turned
this junket into debauch, but
through its own organism of com
mittec turned itself into a supplier of
the liquor and then swindled the state
out of the money to pay for II, and
then, through some Of its members,
who apparently didn't comprehend the
whole process. turned states cyi-
dcnce''!
This is not al all too severe dies
crintion of the operation The fact
that there were doubtless lot OF good
men involved. does not mitigate the
disgrace. 1t was a legislative Job
throughout and the legislature was the
one that above any Of recent years
and enacted prohibition ad
mauseam.
1t is to be hoped, that the Indcpeh-
dent is misinformed and that by the
side Of the bottomless hypocricy, de-
and corruption which
our prohibitory system SO VIGOROUSLY
involves. we can claim some remnant
Of decency left, which this story
would deny. Add this to the Wood /,

reason for the disgust, which |
