Items Gathered in
From Far and Near

At Richmond, on Sunday. some
hotel in the city was made. A large
quantity Of liquor was found In a bath
room on the second floor Of the hotel,
and confiscated Two men were found
in the room when the police broke in
the door, cplored waiter was on
hand, and In the consignment was a
large quantity Of beer In bottles. The
Wayne county prosecutor, after nego-
tiating with the attorneys for the pro-
prietor OF the hotel. announces that
he will not prosecute the hotel man
under the blind tiger act. but will sim
ply have him fined for permitting
liquor to be sold upon the premises
without license. In the face of all
this evidence, former trial showed
that a jury could not be secured In
Richmond that would convict under
the blind tiger act All this throws
light upon the sincerity OF the claim
that Richmond went wet in fear OF the
blind tiger. It has the blind tiger now
and proposes to keep him, along with
the saloon. In Marion, on evidence
much weaker than that offered against
the hotel proprietor ut Richmond, a
blind tiger operator was given jail
sentence and fine the other day that
will mean two years confinement. Ma
rion, dry. convicts the blind tiger ope,-
ators. Richmond, wet. confesses her
inability to punish them. That's the
difference Marion Chronicle.
