great credit is due to them for 1t. But
residentson the less frequented streets
of the city know that IL the police
force wac increased fourfold it would
be impossible to apprehend all the in
toxicated men that appear. Resi-
dents OF Lower State street last even
ing were treated to the spectacle of a
man so drunk that navigation was ut
terly impossible and no arrest was
made, and this is not an uncommon
occurrence, but the police are not to
blame for it in the leas'. Had the
case been reported the man in ques-
into would certainly have staid in Jail
over night. A suggestion of how the
law affects industry is gathered from
the statement of a local manufacturer
who said to a Journal representative
that since the license went into effect
the absentees from his works had av-
eraged more than twenty five per
cent. of the total force each day, and
the force Is not a small one either.
This same manufacturer has figured
out that considerably more than
enough money to buy comfortable
home was paid out for liquor in this
city during last week alone.
There are other instances of this or
that might be mentioned but it is un-
necessary.
AS stated at the beginning the
Journal does not mention these things
in the spirit of criticism but Mont
pelier people are up against situa-
ton that deserves study and it is only
right and fair that they should know
the facts.-Montpelier Journal.
