DEALERS WON'T TALK.
Pawtucket Liquor Dealers Fear
Police Authorities.

A visit was made to several of the Paw
tucket liquor dealers who pay the regular
license this morning by reporter Of the
Post.
IL was generally understood that the
saloon Keepers arc very much averse To
the manner in which the proprietors of
tho drug stores conduct their business
by both selling whisky and lager con-
trary to law.
The regular dealers pay from $500 and
upward annually for their licenses, while
the drug store license Is but 81. 1t Is
said by some dealers that tho drug stores
sell more whisky on Sundays than is
sold In any one OF the saloons during the
week.
AT various times the saloonkeepers have
been loud in expressing themselves against
the way in which the whisky trade Is
conducted at the drug stores, but when
some wcro interviewed this morning all
begged that they be excused from giving
an opinion for publication.
There arc several reasons for their
silence One man was afraid that by
giving an opinion upon the matter he
would place himself in bad odor with the
authorities.
lt was much the same IN other In.
stances; all were fearful of raising tho
onmity Of the police department.. An
other dealer said that the saloon keepers
are watched so closely that the liquor
law was never SO well enforced as at
present.
