Whisky In Pig Carcasses

Canada is no oasis in the American Sahara and Illicit liquor trafficking is being developed into fine art. according to an illustrated article in the Popular Mechanics Magazine. All manner of clever dodges are resorted to by the whisky runners. possibly one of the most original being the shipment of a large consignment of liquor packed in the carcasses of pigs. The liquor was discovered by officers as the pork was being unloaded from the freight cars

1t is said that the expression, Go
to Halifax originated from the fact
that a judge who at one time sat on
the bench at Halifax always sentenc-
ed TO execution all persons brought
before him charged with any crime
presupposing them guilty. and hold
ing their trials afterwards.
All persons charged with a clluue
are not guilty and the purpose OF our
courts is to determine the facts and
administer justice. Judges and pros
ecutors are not to send people to jail
or impose fines unless they deserve
such sentence.
A prosecutor should not be perse-
cutors. Petty, personal quarrels
have no place in a court OF justice
Evil doors should not be protected
nor innocent persons unnecessarily
inconvenienced.
In y. j. Craig, of Mansfield, the
people have a candidate for prosecut-
ing attorney whom they can support
in the full knowledge that if elect
| ed, he will enter upon his duties n
fettered and free from any outside
influences or alliances that would
hinder or in any way retard his work
as an official.
I L. raul .t,,t-. 10 200 i,,-tsnN
that every accused person secured
justice, and rich and poor alike
would hinder or in any way retard
his work a. an official.
He would enter office with the
idea Of performing every Off
cial duty that might fall to his lot
and of looking after the interests of
the county in every way.
He would strive to see justice that
every accused person secured jus
tice, and rich and poor alike would
stand on an equal footing.
While in the prime of life. Mr..
Craig has had a wide and varied le-
gal practice, having been admitted to
the bar % years ago.
He has been highly successful, in
his practice and his services are al
ways in demand. Nevertheless he
always finds time to look after the
needs of the people, and he never
turns away a person, charged with a
crime, because Of the fact that he
has nc money with which to pay off
tar services OF a lawyer. and he
looks after the ease with Just as
L,uch care as h. does tn. Cases OF
those able to pay a substantial fee.
AS a public spirited citizen, Mr..
Craig always takes an active interest
in all things pertaining to the well
fare OF the community.

ing speeches ont in the state that he
cot the state out of debt and hal
he is responsible for the balance.
Both gentlemen cannot be right. The
records of the Auditors office show
that nine of Governor Gardner's
revenue measures got the state out
of debt and piled Up a balance not
needed. Here are the nine evenue
measures and what each produced
from the time Governor Gardner be-
came Governor up to October s,
1920: Income tax. s2,4~10,S11.51;
Inheritance Tax. S3,lS2,6O4.57; Cor
poration Franchise Tax. S4,520,S2S;
Secured Debt Tax, S155,167.25: Ice.
Cream Inspection, 21,S25.0O; Egg
Traffic, s37.2G2.5 Dairy License,
$7,2S6.00; Testing and Measuring
Oil Devises, $53,720.25; and Soft
Drink Tax. S432. 3OS.97; making a
grand total of lO,SSl,S14.S3. AS
the people who have paid the taxes
well know, the Democratic members
of the State Board of Equalization
have been boosting taxes each year.
However, the raises made by the
board. would not have put the state
out of debt. In fact, the records
of the auditors office show that,
without Gardeners revenue measures
the state would now be about $5,-
100000 in debt. 1t is unfair for
Sullivan to attempt to fool the peO-
pie and run on a record made by the
Governor.
