THE PROHIBITION LAW.

That there are those who are go- ing to stand for and insist upon an over strict enforcement of the prohi- bition law is to be expected, just as much as there win be those in ,censid- erabIe number who will look for and take advantage of any evidence of lax enforcement.
 Perhaps the best example of the overzealous respectors of not only the letter of the law but interpretations of it's meaning is furnished by the 1i- brarians who have been busily en- gagged in removing books from the shelves which contained any reference to liquor and ways of making it and even considering the cutting of certain portions out of dictionaries and en- cyclopedias in order to obey the law.
 Such a move was of course ridicu- Ious and it doesn't seem to have been necessary to have questioned Mir. Vol stead regarding the advisability of going to any such. extremes. It is plainly evident that those who are charged with the enforcement of the law are going to have their hands full with the work connected with seeing that the actual sale of liquor is stop ped and that moonshining is not en- gagged in throughout the rest of the country as well as the south
 It is however probable that there will be others who will be wasting lot of time in the consideration of technicalities. Until it is shown that through such the real intent of the law is being circumvented the author ities will disregard them. It is folly to think that there will be so little for the agents of the government to dc that they will be chasing up the can nedA blueberries to discover whether they have worked and developed an alcoholic content, even though a Mass achusetts man was. recently arrested for drunkenness after eating canned berries
