Our attention has been called to the
fact that we have not given the public
the names of parties arrested recently
for drunkenness. This true. We have re-
Trained from doing so only at the earnest
solicitation of friends of those thus i'm
plicated. Whether this is good policy
or not is question. However, as means
of aiding in the prevention of drunken
ness we shall hereafter publish all names
of those arrested and fined for drunken
ness. no matter who they may be. We
believe the liquor laws should be fully
lived up to and all violators should re-
ceive punishment for violating the same
and it may be that the fear of being pub
licly exposed may have a goodresult.
