Kegs Marked

WAS SECOND ATTEMPT
Search Made of Place August
2, But Only Presto" Was
Found at That
Time.

At least one Of the five kegs Of beer
or Presto seized by the police at
George Hardesty's place last night
contains an alcoholic liquor. The an
alysis Of samples from two of the
kegs was completed this afternoon
by Chemist George Parsons. One
err was non-aIcoholic. Both Of the
kegs from which these samples were
taken were marked "Presto," printed
In big red letters on paper label.
Chief of Police Charles H. Henne-
mann and Officer William Wilson
raided the soft drink parlor of Charles
Hardesty, 10 South Third street, at
8:45 last night Five kegs, contain
ing liquid refreshment, were seized.
All were marked with United States
revenue stamps, which stated that
the containers were filled with beer
and three also were marked with the
red paper label, bearing the legend
presto"
| The officers bore search warrants
which had been obtained from James
S. Burrows, justice of the peace. The
warrants were shown to the proprie-
tor and the officers then ransacked
the place. The search resulting in
the finding of the five kegs, contain
ing some kind of liquid refreshment,
supposedly beer, as above stated.
Sergeant Warren Holiday who had
been waiting at police Headquarters
to learn the results of the raid, was
called and he responded with the
patrol wagon to haul the confiscated
liquor to the station.
/. Tags, giving the date OF the raid,
the officers who made the raid, and
the liquor seized, and the amount,
|were placed on each key. The liquor
is. now stored at police headquarters.
n Chemist Making Analysis.
Samples were drawn from each
key this morning and turned over to
George Parsons, local chemist, for
analysis, to determine whether or not
any or all Of the kegs contained beer
or merely presto or Temp Brew"
or some other substitute thirst
quencher.
II the kegs are filled with real beer,
or II any Of them contains bona fids
liquor, Hardesty, the keeper of the
place will be placed under arrest and
an information charging him with vio-
lating the state prohibitory laws VIII

"Been Bidlna Time"

servation for some time. He fooled
us three weeks ago, but we have
been merely waiting since that time.
to give him plenty of opportunity to
lose all fear Of the police and then at
the proper time. when it appeared
that he was becoming careless, we
made our raid and got the results we
were after.
"This is only step in the fight
which this administration is making
to enforce all the laws, whether state
or municipal We are going to put
the fear of the law in the hearts Of
the bootleggers and operators of
blind pigs and hope that when we
are through this community will be
as dry as the Sahara.

Law Hard to Enforce.

MANY people do not realize the
difficulties we must cope with in
fighting violations of the prohibitory
laws. 1t is the hardest statute to
enforce that any state legislature has
ever passed. But even with the i'm
perfect means which it provides for
enforcing it's provisions, we are going
to do our best.
when l took Office last April, !
took an oath of Office WHICH bound
me to certain duties and with every
resource which has been given my de-
partment, shall strive to fulfill the
terms of that oath.
eff it is possible to stop violations
of the liquor law, we will stop them.
If not, we shall make it SO hard to
get liquor that essentially the same
results will be obtained"

Hardesty RaIded August 2.

August 2, when raids were made
by the police on the soft drink par
lors of Jerry Stack, Bert Fuller, Hugh
Brennan and Hardesty, nothing was
found at 'Hardesty's place. ex-
cept half key labelled Presto" but
when the contents of the key were
analysed it was found that the label
was genuine, and the case against
him was dropped.
Since that time the police have
been on the lookout and the results
of last nights raid were very crafty
ing to the officers. If the analysis
now under way, shows that any or al
of the kegs contain Presto, notice will
be filed in the justice court that
Hardesty may claim his property. II
he fails to do SO within ten days the
stuff will be destroyed, under the
state law.
Commissioner Hilpert stated this
morning that he was very much graft
fled with the results OF the raid
my department will keep right after
all violators of the law, and we will
fight to the last ditch to stop all boot
Logging and illicit liquor selling within
the city limits of Keokuk.
