THEY RESIGN.
The Androscoggin Liquor
Deputies Quit Business.
Sheriff Cummings Will Now Use
His Civil Deputies.
Asserts That Law Will Be Enforced in
His County.

Auburn. Me- NOV. Erred A. Stcy-
els, George a. Seavy. Benjamin
O'Hare and James A. Hurley. who have
been liquor deputies under Sheriff
Charles Cummings since he took office
TWO years ago the first of next Janu-
AIRY, rendered their resignati ions to the
sheriff, Saturday, to AXE effect at
midnight, tonight.
tn" deputies refuse to make any
statement as to the cause of their ac-
ton. Ever since the State election at
which Sheriff cummings and the pol
icy Of enforcement was turned down.
the air has retn full OF rumors of deals
between the liquor dealers and the
sheriff and his G"r'stirs, and it has
been openly charged and as strenuous
~ denied that certain dealers had
mad" :ul arrangement with the officers
whereby they were to be permitted to
sell during the remainder of the year
1t has unieniahy been the fact that
liquor has been sold more openly since
the election than at any time during
Sheriff Cummings term. but his
friends have cl;iimrd that this was due
t" no bargain with the dealers. but
was simply tn" natural result of the
Encouragement following an election
il which the peoil. had so plainly in
Gicated that they did not want the
kind OF strict Enforcement which they
had been having.
sheriff Cummings proposes to put
number of his civil deputies to work
enforcing the law. He said. Saturday:
Il propose to put on deputy sherffs
enough 20 cnfoTc. This law ur to the
handle if il takes the whole 20 of them.
| have had Il talk with the county At
.orney and he tells me that the law
sets no limit in TIL" number that I can
appoint ana that if appoint them the
county will pay them. I am in confer
encc with other Of the deputies whom
! expect to add to those three and |
shall offer place as special liquor
deputy to Eav. N. q. French. who is
known as a lifelong p:ohibitiorist and
who has frequently been placed in nom
inatior for office bv the Prohibitory
party leaders in Auburn.
Il am anxious ana willing TO appoint
any good man who means to work for
enforcement. Deputy Sheriff Hobbs of
Turner is here this afternoon and l
hope to make arrangement with him To
go into the work also. The reason why
] look to the civil deputies since the re-
tiremant Of the special liquor deputies
is because they ar" already under
bonds. whereas a new appointee would
have to secure the legal bonds which
would delay matters and perhaps inter-
fere with the purpose I do not see how
the liqLor business can possibly suggest
any collision of any sort with men of
this stamp or with this office under
these circumstance.
1t is understood that Civil Deputy
Sclden A. Cummings. Austin r. How
ard and John a. Willard will be in
trusted with the liquor work. The
sheriff says that the relations between
himself and his retiring deputies are
pleasant.

Kind Words From California
Papers for Dixie Conf
pany

The third day of the Freman's Car
nival was by far the best attended of
any thus far this week, and the local
department expects to realize more
than enough from it to pay for the de-
sired uniforms. The show is all that
the advertisers tclaim, from one end
Of the midway to the other. When one
takes a ride on the Ferris wheel,
pitches few rings at the glittering
knives, throws a ball or two at the
"nigger's" head, sees Luna" "Geor-
gie," mo Name, and makes trip to
the moon, still he is not half way
round, for there are the famous glass
blowerB Samson" the big boa, the
Swiss Village, and many other things.
To see them all takes the better half
of an afternoon or evening.
The talk Of the town is Dana
Thompsons high dive. No more dar.
ing exhibition of human nerve has
ever been witnessed in Redlands. and
there. are several hundred people who
have not yet missed one of these per
formances. The one feature of the
show, however, which is most remark
able of all that may be mentioned, is
the fact that not one fash of immor-
ality can be charged against any part
of it. The Swiss Village, negro min
strels, dancing girls and all, are at
tracing the the best people. One cit
izen remarked that it did not seem
like carnival, for the "bunco" games
were not there.-Redlands Review.
