LET US HAVE THE TEST.

LII 10 IN r I'D
From the New York Herald
Attorney General Daugherty's plan
to take over the work OF enforcing
prohibition Is wise one. Enforce
ment Of the law should have been
lodged with the Department of
Justice from the first. This en-
forcement never should have been
lodged with the Treasury Depart
ment.
[ Thoroughgoing enforcement OF the
prohibition law IS one OF the biggest
jobs the United States Government
has ever undertaken. Until now the
governments handling of prohibi-
ton through bureau largely domi-
mated by the Anti-Saloon League
has been neither satisfactory nor
convincing. though not because of
lack of zeal and earnestness on the
part of the league and the bureau.

elimination OF poison beverages,

rebellion against the Volstead act

much too big a piece OF work for
private organizations-perhaps too
big a piece OF work oven for the

Apart from a great war, no sim
gle undertaking OF the government
has ever put It TO a greater test
than the test It now faces in the

Against Boot Leggers
Continued from PAGE One

SOllllHACQ 1IOIl age Otl0
there could have been no further
issue in the case for a court to
pass upon. The only action called
for by law was the imposition of a
sentence. Justice Watts was ready
to perform that duty.
States Attorney w. E. Tracy of
Johnson, however, had other plans
for disposing of the case. He ask
ed that it should be transferred to
the docket of the County Court
with the prisoner held in the nom
mai bail of $500. As is customary
with Vermont justices, Justice
Watts granted the request.
In a recent interview Justice
Watts stated that the case has not
since been heard of in the county
court. 1t is presumably buried
somewhere in the docket, if it has
not been mol pressed.
Why a man who had pleaded
guilty to having violated the
States liquor laws should have had
his case tenderly removed from the
jurisdiction of the judge before
whom he had pleaded guilty, and
had full jurisdiction to impose sem
tence, is question that is pulling
citizens.
1t seems that the tenderly codd-
led bootlegger had not played the
game in strict accordance with
accepted rules Of the craft. He
squealed or in the language of JUS
tice Watts, he disclosed on a pal.
He gave information that he had
obtained the moonshine from |. NJ.
WarburtOn, occupant of d farm on
the outskirts of Stowe.
Bootlegger and alleged moon
sinner, apparently, had fallen out.
Here, it would seem, was a chance
that the majesty of the law might
be indicated.
On February ~ the leisurely
mirions of the law swooped down
upon |. NJ. Warburton, and he was
Watts. He was charged with fur
haied into the court of Justice
nishing intoxicants. He, too, was
bound over to the county court and
released on $500 bail.
Then, for a time, Mr.. Warbur-
ton disappeared from the spotlight
of courts and the law. 1t may be
assumed that he resumed his usual
aVocation. Sometime later officers
of the law appear to have received
complaints that Mr.. Warburton
was not following the strait and
marrow path that steers clear of

unpleasant experiences with the
courts. In other words someone
seems to have suspected that the
gentleman was still conducting a
booze business on the old farm.
At any rate the officers visited
! the place and, in the absence Of the
lord of the manor, delivered q more
or less impressive lecture on the
evils and the dangers () attendant
upon participating in illegal hand
, ling of intoXicants to a patient lis
tener-Mrs. Warburton.
Then one day in October Harry
Lyman, the tender subject Of Off
clal solicitude, with a case, it is
alleged, pending against him in the
county court, became involved in
an automobile accident from which
he emerged more or less battered.
/ The story of this accident and its
ultimate connection with activities
OF the officers of the law is too
tangled to be set forth here.
IN some mysterious way, as an
outcome of the accident, it is said,
Mr.. Warburton, with case
against him, pending in the county
court, appeared one day before
Justice F. Parker Collins in Hyde
Park. He pleaded guilty to anoth-
er charge against him and the dire
penalty was imposed Of $500 and
costs and % months in the House
OF Correction.
Very gently, it is probable, the
news was broken to him that the
shadow of the iron-barred gate at
Windsor did not loom for him. The
House of Correction part of his
sentence was suspended. Costs
were paid and the prisoner was
permitted to depart in peace upon
condition that he should pay the
$500 fine in monthly installments
Of $25.
There are citizens of Lamoills
county unkind enough to suggest
that the authorities in the War
burton case might be interpreted
by bootleggers and moonshiners as
equivalent to an invitation for
them to open DIP or continue in
business with $25 a month as the
price of license for them to
calry-on their liquor dispensing
operations.
Gentleness in dealing with the
convicted man did not end with
easing the financial way for him.
Section 6588 of the State liquor
law provides that convictions I'M
der the law shall be forthwith"
reported by the court in which the
conviction is obtained to the
United States internal revenue col
lector for the district Of Vermont.
Justice Parker says he mentioned
the conviction to Prohibition Agent
Lewis, whose home is in Hyde
Park. Mr.. Lewis has no connec-
ton with the office of the collector
OF internal revenue.
If the case had been reported to
the collector it would have been
his duty, under orders of the see
rotary of the treasury, to proceed
at once against Mr.. Warburton on
the charge Of having in his posses
sion still and as the still had been
produced in the court of Justice
Parker the evidence to obtcin a
conviction would seem TO have
been reasonably conclusive.
The least sentence that can be
imposed for the possession of a
still, without having obtained a
permit from the collector of inter-
nal revenue, is the forfeiture of all
personal property of the defend
ant, a fine and penalty totalling
$3.50 end one month in prison.
The prison sentence is mandatory.
The Burlington Free Press cites
other cases, calling for condemna-
ton, but space forbids their being
rem oduced here.

Pinchot Liberal Spender.

Clifford Pinchot spent large 10 win
the Republican nomination for governor of
Pennsylvania, hut the report shows that it was
practically all from his own pocket and was
aot drummed cut of others. His campaign cost
enough to attract considerable attention On
the other hand, his opponent, Mr.. Alter claims
to have spent only 81 100, that quite diff
ference is apparent. Probably Pinchot is able
to explain satisfactorily where and when he
spent all this money TO secure al, office the
salary of which will. during his entire incum-
eency, probably not pay the expense of the pri-
absolutely honest report, so that his enemies
could not accuse him OF holding anything back
As Clifford Pinchot is a man of ample means
1t is possible also that the question of salary
did not enter into the consideration with him.
Still it may be hard for the men like Mr. Pin
chot in the party TO comprehend why he should
have spent SO much. 1t may be explained by
saying that Mr.. Alter had the backing of the
powerful Republican machine of the state
while his opponent had to go to the expense of
building up a personal organization in all parts
OF the state, never easy thing to do. While
he evidently spent money freely, there is moth
ing TO show that it wrongly spent. He had
TO carry on a campaign largely without help
in all parts OF a great state, and this requires
q large expenditure. Still it would not be sur
prisng if the opposition strove to make con
siderable out of this fact during the election
campaign.

Weeds Should be Cut Now.

Rock Island weeds are not as tall vet as
they might be- and it is Nfrtain that they are
not tall they are going TO be if they are
not cut down Because of rainy spring
the weeds are more plentiful than usual and the
continued dampness is causing them to grow
rapidly. Some of the vacant lots in the city
are already overgrown with useless weeds that
not only harbor mosquitoes and engender hay
fever, but choke out grass and other harmless
and useful verdure. The time to cut down
weeds is before they go TO seed, and in the
case of those which spread abroad the irritat-
ing pollen that causes hay fever, before they
bloom The operation of cutting down the
weeds should be repeated as often as they
reach the proper point OF growth.
Residents who take interest in the general
appearance OF the city and the health and com
fort of their families and their neighbors will
remove their weeds without urging. Those
who are careless or forgetful about it, should
be reminded, and those VINO are defiant should
be compelled because there are ordinances on
the subject that have the right kind of teeth in
them. The duty of enforcing the ordinances is
generally left to the health authorities but it is
a part of the police power of the city. Every
officer of the law well every citizen rs
responsible for seeing that everybody obeys
these ordinances.
