POLICY IN THE COUNTY.
Judge Thornton Appoints Special Of
fcer TO Endeavor to Break Up
Gambling.

As result of the report Of a spe-
ciaI grand jury in Alexandria county
which met last Monday and which
brought in charges of gambling and
LIQUOR selling in the county. and CEN
sured certain officials for failure TO
perform their duties, Judge }. b. l..
Thornton has appointed H. A. Smoot
as special officer whose duty it will
be to see that policy is not played
near Rosslyn. Another officer. 1t Is
said, will be appointed 20 have the
same duties in connection with the
Joints which are said to exist near
Jackson City.
The grand jury was composed OF
the following citizens:
Thomas J. De Lashmut of Airing
ton; Henry Parker, of Cherrydale;
H. C. Ball, of Clarendon; W. W. Bur-
dette, of Park Lane; f. 3. Van Every,
of Arlington: William \. Febrey, Of
East Falls Church; Z. Z. Wilson Of
Clarendon; Thomas z. Gray, OF Ar
lington.
Their report in full was as follows:
Hon. j. B. r. Thornton:
Sir: We, the grand jury, now in
session. have gone into the matter of
the playing of policy and other forms
IF gambling now existing in the
county, and the sale Of liquor without
"a license. We are satisfied that IL
quor is sold and policy is being play
I'd in open violation of the law, but
we find it impossible to get the evil
dence to convict the offenders.
The sheriff, deputy sheriff, and
Commonwealth Attorney have all
acknowledged before tbs grand jury
that they are satisfied that these evils
all existed and are being carried on
every day, but seemingly have made
little, if any effort to break them
up, seeming to prefer to let them eX-
list rather than bring them to justice.
This jury suggests that Your Hon
OF censure these officials for their fail
IRE to enforce the law.
We also suggest that you order the
sheriff and the Commemorative At
torney to break up the gambling and
liquor selling in this county immedi
ately, believing that with d little dill
igence on their part that this can be
easily accomplished, and if they fail
that you take such action as you may
think necessary.
We believe that if an officer would
follow the wagons Of the Capitol Ii
quor Company as they deliver beer
to the different places throughout the
county he could easily locate the diff
ferent speakeasics now existing.
The jury, after examining many Of
he coustables and special officers Of
the county were surprised to learn
that few Of them claimed to have
knowledge of any gambling or liquor
selling in the county.
The jury further reports that they
have investigated the charge made
against the clerks Office, and believe
from the testimony that the business
Of the clerks Office has been run in
a very loose and careless manner, and
suggest that your Honor instruct the
clerk in the future to run his office
in strict compliance with the law.
The jury requests that this report
be spread upon the minutes Of this
court.
The above report is concured in
ny al members of this grand jury.
