That frost storm last week amounted
to about four inches, and when the sun
arose the surface fakes glittsred like
diamonds, presenting all the seven

furnished.

ger snow storm which greatly improved

Alleged Bribery by Maine Sheriff


There have in the past been many
times charges made that officers charged
with the enforcement of the laws in this
state were making money by their
fsiiure to enforce those laws. This has
particularly been the case with regard to
the probibirory liquor law, and most
men of affairs, who understand men as
they are, have believed that underneath
all this smoke there was some fire.
There is little doubt that there has been
some corruption and graft in connection
with the liquor law.
Nevertheless such an offence has been
very hard, almost impossible, to prove,
in any instance, from the very nature of
things, and such thing as a prosecution
under the law has been almost unknown.
Therefore the arrest Of Charles O..
Emery, sheriff of York County, on the
charge of attempted bribery, on Tues
day, made a big sensation, as might have
been expected.
Sheriff Emery is charged with attempt
ing to bride County Attorney Asa A
Richardson Of York County to ''go easy"
ON the liquor sellers in certain York
County towns by the offer of payment of
fifty dollars a week to the county attor
ney. II is alleged that Mr.. Richardson
put up job on Sheriff Emery, aud
has witnesses to conversations supposed
to have been private between the tw"
men. 1t is also stated by those inter-
ested in the prosecution that this arrest
is only the beginning, and that before
the thing is through other meu promi-
neut in the state will be brought into
the affair.
Governor Plaisted has announced that
the matter ia of such importance that he
shall call the attention Of the legisls,
ture to II when that body reassembles
this week, and ask for full investiga-
ton.
At the bearing held Saturday, wit
nesses for the state testified to CONVERSE
tons between the sheriff and the county
attorney, and Sheriff Emery was held in
$4,000 bonds. No evidence was put 10
for the defence.
