Our friends who are running the
gin mills say that prohibition does II ct
prohi int. Well we CUES. it will pro-
hibit about as well as regulation regu-
lates now They tell us that local OPP
ton law will be violated and for that
reason we ought not to have a local
option law. Well We have a law for
bidding these gentlemen from selling
to b,ys, habitual drunkards or men
when under the influence of liquor
aud yet there is hardly an hour when
the saloons are open when this law is
not violated According to their doc
trine we better repeal the law. Do not
make laws because men will violate
them is a new philosophy and one
known only to the saloon keeper who
wants and who does persistently vic,
late the law.

0. S. MAY DISCLOSE
LAW VIOLATIONS

Some of Gary's saloonmen and whole
salers may find themselves running
amuck of the federal liquor laws if in
vestigations being made by govern
ment secret service operatives result
in sufficient evidence.
Some time ago complaints reached
the authorities that the liquor men
were Juggling bonded goods, thereby
defrauding the government and the
purchasers of the liquid.
According to the story told, the willy
saloenmen use an electric needle to
make a small hole in the bottom of a
bonded and tax paid bottle. Then they
drain out the good whisky and pour in
its place a diluted and colored solu-
ton of alcohol or a cheap grade of
whisky. The good whisky is then sold
and in both instances the government
tax is evaded. and the purchaser finds
that he is cheated If he can tell the
difference between diluted alcohol and
the bonded goods
Many south side liquor purchasers
now turn their whisky bottles upside
down when buying. for although the
seal at the top may be intanct the bot
tom may disclose minute wax OF
parraf1n filled hole which served as the
outlet for the pure stun and the in
PRODUCTION of the cheaper grade.
