LoIMA WON FIRST MONEY

Prosecutions.

The Brewery Owners Paid Him Much
Money, and Now He ~ Interested I'm
Prosecutions.
Loima i. Lamson is said TO have won
first money in contest with the proprie-
tors of the resorts at East Eagle and West
Eagle. Back in the days when Hinsdale
had board of selectmen in favor of enforc-
ing the prohibtorylaw Lamson was engag-
ed, as understood, 10 prosecute the brewer
les. His palm wasn't devoid of an itch, and
when he received offers from the brewery
owners he agreed, as they affirm, to secure
them immunity from prosecution. He re-
ceived large retaining fee each month
from both resorts, enough, it is said, to
support him In good style. The prOsecu-
tons didn't stop, and finally the fees to
Lamson were reduced, and then withdrawn
altogether. In the meantime an overturn
took place in the board of selectmen and
the breweries were supposed to be free
from molestation. But the conclusion was
reached without including Lamson. Pros
ecutions began short time ago on com
plant of a representative of the New
Hampshire Law and Order league, who was
apparently acting in good faith but whom
the breweries thought Lamson was using
for his own purposes. They were natur-
ally "sore' over the Developments, when
they remembered the goodly sums they
had paid to Lamson. The sellers of beer
supposed they had a clear case against
Lamson, and expected TO get him indicted
az the recent session of the grand jury at
keene. The county solicitor, however,
informed them that there was no law that
would reach him. as be had acted as prl-
vate citizen and not as an official.
And this is why Lamson smiles and why
he is said 10 have won first money.
II is also an interesting revelation of the
way the business is done over there.
