Sheriff White
To Make Bangor
'''Dry As. Sahara
Enormous Stocks of Wet Goods
Being Stored for Anticipated
Drought in Penobscot
County

Bangor. Me, Dec. 1s.-sheriff T. Her
bert White, one Of the two Democratic
sheriffs Of Maine who will hold Office un-
der Gov. Milliken. announced Saturday
that he will make Penobscot county as
dry as Sahara after the first Of the year.
Il shall enforce the liquor laws against
saloons. hotels. clubs. drug stores, and
in fact all places where liquor is sold,
drunk or given away" he said. II said
prosecute the owner or agent Of build
ing where liquor is sold as liquor NUS
ance. If person allows liquor to be
stored in his or her building shall pros
ecute such owner.
II intend to enforce the law against
cider sales, as 1 believe that more crimes
are committed from hard cider than from
liquor.
Il shall ask that licenses be taken
away from innholders and victuallers who
are convicted Of the sale Of liquor.
Il have expressed the above intentions
in private conversation and it is crafty
ing to me that a number of men who
have been engaged in the liquor business.
after they had learned Of my intentions
have Immediately stated that they will
go out of business and that they will do
all they can to help me as a personal
favor to me.
Il have in mind a few other things
that I intend doing, but this is enough
to say. as almost everybody knows that
when make statement I mean it. and
to those who do not believe 1t, think
after the first of the year.
Il am going to ask favor Of persons
who are in sympathy with enforcement,
and that is to notify me of any neglect
of an officer in doing his duty. as the
county is SO large it is impossible to
watch all the men,"
Penobscot county liquor dealers are
not surprised at this announcement Of
Sheriff White. They all expect a period
of enforcement after the first of the
year. but they differ on how long it will
last.
Meanwhile. they are preparing by lay
ing in big stores Of wet goods for the
new year. as the law enforcement may
be so strict that liquor may be barred
at the state line. Enormous quantities
OF whiskey and little beer are coming
into the state by every freight train.
Ingenious hiding places under ground
and elsewhere arc being constructed. and
b. Jan. there will be several months
supply in Bangor.
