Stretching a Point.
(Randolph Herald and News.

(Randolph Herald and News.)
1t is understood that Superintend
ent Smith of the Anti-Saloon league,
after bringing to the attention of the
license commissioners of Burlington
the disqualification of Senator Powell
under the statute, which resulted in
the licenses being revoked, with con-
siderable doubt arising as to the sem
ator's ability to reclaim the $500
paid the state, also complained to the
state s attorney of Chittenden coun-
ty and sought to have Mr.. Powell
prosecuted for selling illegally while
he held the licenses. This would be
stretching point, inasmuch as Mr..
Powell had been granted the licenses
in due form and had paid his fees
without question or objection. 1t rails
es the suspicion heretofore expressed
that Mr.. Smith has not forgotten
where Mr.. Powell stood when the
Perry act was an issue.
