CIDER DRUNKS WILL BRING PROSECUTION

cause they were looKmg for larger game and were kept busy with their success, and second, because it was hoped the dispensing of cider over the bar would not create nuisance. Local dealers were given clearly to understand. how ever, that the selling of cider-that is, hard cider-was illegal and that if the sale of it was abused and, it became a nuisance the laws would be invoked to stop it's sales That is the present status. Some places selling cider are making nuisance by causing intoxication. These places we must and will attend to. The proprietors of such places are entirely to llame for the situation and will be made to suffer without prejudice to the other owners who see to it that 10 one is per mitted to become intoxicated in their place. It is hoped this expedient will put an end to cider drunks. If it fails the sale of cider will be stopped.
