AS THE EDITOR SEES IT.


Much lad feeling has been created be-
tween the vets and the drys over the
method of enforcing the federal prohibi-
tion law. It seems that in many cases
prohibition agents have been forcibly en-
tering homes and Selling such liquor as
they could find. Now the courts in some
cases are ruling that no agent can enter
q mans home without due process Of
law, and much liquor illegally seized has
been returned to its owners. Regardless
of the merits Of the wet and dry issue, a
mans home is his castle and should be
held sacred from invasion at the whim
of any person on suspicion. There is .
due process Of law provided for the
searching Of suspected house, and that
law should be respected To sanction
otherwise would be to subject every home
IN the land to invasion by any thief OF
thug who saw fit to pin bogus star to
his vest.

TRIED TO ESCAPE IN TRUCK
North Grosvenordale Man Appeals
 From l80 Day Sentence

Following a truck speeding from Danielson last Saturday, William E, Jackson, county investigator for the states attorneys office, and John Me Farland, chief of police at Danielson, finally overlook the vehicle at Alta waugan and arrested Fred Bergeron of North Grosvenoraale on a charge of larceny.

DIDN'T KNOW HOW
 TO RING ALARM
Night Watchman's Ignorance Caused Dangerous
 Delay
Fire At Foundry Early Monday Morn
 ing Does Slight Damage

Although The Patriot has from time to sime given public instruction that to ring the fire alarm one should break tie glass, open the door, pull clown the hook and then let go, and that the person ringing in the alarm should remain at the box to direct the fire depayunent to the place of the fire, night watchman, a man of all men who should know how to pull Tn an alarm of fire, proved his ignorance early last Monday morning, according to fire deparement officials, by not be- ing able to call the department for blaze in the coke shed at the plant of the Putnam Foundry & Machine Co.
 According to Chief Arnold the man went to the box, broke the glass and turned the key and then, when the alarm did not ring. thought it was out of order. He ran to Mechanics street and shouted fire. Some person called 6e chief on the telephone. After glv- ing the only possible signal, three strokes, from his house, to get the men out, the chief hurried to the ire and reached the scene almost before the box alarm was rung in. It re- mained for night patrolman to ring in box 25 near the foundry after be- ing taken there in an automobile.
 The two companies made a quick getaway and found shed filled with coke and soft coal blazing. The fire was soon under control, but it took some time to extinguish all of the lire in the coke and coal. The shed was not far from the main building of the foundry and the delay caused by the icnorance ot a watchman in the vicin- ity. who first saw the fire, might have proved serious i
 The alarm was rung in at l2.l5 and the "all-ou.n signal given shortly af- ter 1 o'cloek. Many people left their beds to go to the fire, but as there was no reflection of blaze visible in the sky they returned home after getting part way to the fire, thinking that It was false alarm.
