Wherein 10 the personal liberty Of

Was not the privacy Of the home

the 18th amendment was part Of the
constitution upon grounds Of sus-
picion that lawlessness existed in
the home? And this was done and
is done under the autonomy Of the
state and no one knows that bet

why not charge the state with Cen

fear the invasion of his home under
the power and authority of the 18th

PRINCE FAILS TOO
APPEAR AT MALOOF
PRELIMINARY CASE,

Charges Of sale anc possession Of
liquor against Joe Maloof, pro-
prietor Of the Hollywood inn. were
dismissed yesterday by United
States Commissioner A. G. Bush.
Witnesses failed to appear against
Maloof and this resulted in the dis
missal Of the proceedings. Harry
3. Prince, prohibition agent, whose
testimony was required to support
the charges made, left the tri-cities.
The charges against Maloof were
the result of a sensational incident
which happened at the Nahant re-
sort, when Prince was shot through
the leg following a Wild scene in
the roadhouse. Prince, 1t was
charged. was Intoxicated and started

1t behooves us to, now and then,
glance back over the several years
preceding and take inventory of the
progress made in our community We
go along occupied by our affairs and
generally give little thought to the
strides Of progression that have been
made. It is only a moderately few
years ago when our present thriving
city was but a small town. Tie writ
er can recall when the quarter of a
block now occupied by the Catholic
Church and parsonage was the lake in
summer and the skating rink in win
ter for the kids delight. He recalls
plainly having to be fshed out by
the collar after having fallen off a
raft sailing the bounding main. The
same condition can be recalled re-
garding block now, one Of the best
residence sections in the city. The
blocks now owned for the new High
School afforded the boys and girls
of the neighborhood excellent oppor-
tunities for boating and getting their
feet wet. Now, these places and many
others within the city limits are filled
and leveled and made into commend-
able properties Of which we can be
pround.
Only few years ago the business
section of the city consisted mainly of
a group Of wooden shacks. Now, lin
ing the principal business streets we
find modern substantial brick struc-
lures occupied by progressive and up
to-date business establishments. We
see new buildings being constructed,
improvements installed and new
building being planned. All this be-
speaks progress that must necessarily
