DRUG ADDICTS
ON RISE HERE

The number of persons addicted
to the drug habit in the tri-cities
is astonishing and that this num-
Der is steadily increasing, partly
due to prohibition, is the opinion
of A. NJ. Murrey, federal prohibit
ton investigator, who is rounding
up bootleggers and distillers in Dav-
export. With liquors Of all de-
scriptions retailing at prohibitive
prices and tie supply limited and
hard to secure. scores of men and
women are finding solace in drugs,
he says.
Morphine is most widely in use
here, his investigations reveal al
though heroin and even opium is
being smuggled into the country in
finding a ready sale. The latter is
large quantities, Mr.. Murrey as
serts, and some is finding its way
into the interior.

reports Of several county officers were
received during the meeting.
Reports from the County Engineer
as to the condition of Coursey's Mill,

Several Kent County taxables ap-
peared before the Court asking for
adjustment in their assessments where
the assessors had made over charge
or double assessments. The assess
ments of D. F. Loose, at Cheswold,
and c. E. Taylor. at Harrington. were

LAW REGARDING LIQUOR
Offenders Must Tell or Go To Jail
Magistrates Must Question

magistrates MuSI QueSllOH
1t seems that the Justice of the
Peace, the Alderman and committing
magistrates of the municipalities in
Delaware, who have jurisdiction over
crimes and punishments, are not
aware that there is ample and per-
fectly good law by which to get infor-
nation as to the source of supply of
any liquor or intoXicant from any per
son OF persons who may be arrested
for being drunk in the State of Della
ware. The law was passed at the
session of the Legislature of two year
ago, and was signed by the Governor
and appears in the volume of laws of
that session; viz; Vol. 30, Chapter
239, section 26, on page 644, and is
under the heading of "Crime and
Punishment"
This law makes it clearly a case of
contempt of court to refuse to tell the
source of the supply. The person re-
fusing to divulge the facts, shall be
sent to prison until they see their way
clear to give the information to the
questions asked; or, they may be fined
in addition to the Imprisonment.
There be no excuse as to failure to
get information, as the law provides
indefnit imprisonment for the party
until it is divulged. The person Civ
ing the information is freed from pun
ishment for the offense of drunkenness
on that case by giving the informa-
ton, but will have to testify when the
person who gave, sold OF supplied the
liquor is arrested to answer under the
charge.
The Justices the Mayors and Alder
men who sit in cases where the pris-
oner is charged with being drunk, bet
ter get familiar with the facts of the
cases thru the law as made and pro-
vided for the enforcement of the laws
applying to crimes and their punish
ments, to which public attention has
been called in this article.
