The customs officials have discovered a smuggling scheme on a lurge scale. Tlie trail up from the Oinunogan county passes into Canada at Kruger's on ( lake, where the custom house is located, and then makes a detour in the United States and the Dominion at a point several miles east of the custom house. The town of Oroo is the headquarters of the smugglers. Freighters from the states, bringing in produce, come up the trail to Kruger's, pay duty on stuff they have in their wagons and then follow the road down across the line to Oroo. Here they pick up big quantities of all sorts of groceries, principally tobacco and canned goods, and follow the road into the Canadian territory again, to which they gain access without difficulty, as all the goods have presumably paid duty at Kruger's farther back on the line.
