POLICY ON LIQUOR.
DiMcrencc Is Recognized Mayor
Gibbcs Says Between Respectable
Clubs and "Blind Tigers"

Columbia, Aug. 29.-Mayor Gibbes
said yesterday that the police depart
ment had closed the blind tigers" in
Columbia and that they would remain
closed. He made this statement i'm
announcing the policy of the depart
ment in the enforcement of the
whiskey laws.
The following is the statement is
sued:
Having been requested to make a
statement Of the record and policy
OF the police department in the mat
ter o. the enforcement of liquor laws
in Columbia, submit the following
I'm October, 1910, Jack Hayden,
manager Of the Owls club, was con-
victed Of violation Of the dispensary
law and on October 2G his case was
heard before council on appeal.
My vote alone was cast to sustain
the recorder, and the conviction was
reversed by a vote of four to one,
and all seized liquors were ordered re-
turned to their purported owners.
Thus the supreme court Of the city
declared itself in favor of permitting
the members of bona fide clubs to
keep private liquors for private con,
sumption at their clubs and the police
department was bound by their deci-
sion.
THE chief Of police was then in
structed to visit all such places from
time to time to see that adherence,
was given to this ruling and that
liquors and beers were not sold by
the bottle or drink, but to continue
and press the fight against individuals
who, under bogus club names, wer.
selling liquor for profits and corrup.
ting the minors of the city. Since that
time we have not been able to make
cases against such clubs as the Elks
Owls, Eagles, Columbia or Metropol
itan clubs.
There is q vast difference between
such mutual organizations, equipped
with all club and home convenience.
and with scores of members VIII,
never take a drink, and the othei
kind referred to.
Il do not see why a man has no
as clear 4 right to keep his privat,
bottle there as in his sideboard q
home, or similarly to play a social
game of cards
Therefore, and because of the rul
ing Of council, the police department
is making no fight upon them, wheth
er their members be rich or poor
the only, requirement being an hon
est compliance with conditions re
qured by council.
Nor will we play such respectable
societies against disreputable and no
torious blind tigers whose record
are known to all men and whose con
victions flagrante delictu burden tn
dockets Of our court"
