Revenue officers made raid on cou-
pie of Illicit distilleries near StoneVllle,
this county, the past week. In the nrst
raid the officers arrested fiv white men
who were in the place eating their din
ner. This distillery was running IN 1ull
blast, but only a very small quantity OF
whiskey was found The defendants were
carried to Greensboro and given hear
ing before United States Commissioner
Wolfe, and were bound over to the next
term of the Federal Court in bonds of
$500, which they gave. The reason the
defendants were carried before Commits
sioner Wolfe instead of the United States
Commissioner at Redsville was because
of the swollen streams between here and
Stonevile. A telephone message from
Stoneville states that the revenue officers
made another raid and cut up the second
distillery, which was being operated with

Stoneville. Three thousand gallons of
beer were poured out and two worms were

Well Said.

Vermont has been experiencing an
unusual number of sensational crimes
within the past years. The sociologists
may well study the situation, because
most OF the features of the environment
that is supposed to best breed crime are
missing from this state. We have no
centers of congested population with
their peculiarly attractive methods of
dissipation and all the allurements of
vice and temptations to riotous living
that flourish in them. Yet crime after
crime has been committed bearing all
