Show WE have had many examples recently re-cently of the inefficiency of the local option liquor law, locally, and from what we can learn the local condition is similar to that which obtains in other parts of the state. It is so easy, in these days of good roads nnd tho automobile, to jump in and "between "be-tween two dayB" go to Mitford and return with a car load of booze, that the attempt of the majority of tho peoplo to enforce promibition is at l03t n poor faiJurc. Every few days (or nights) some enterprising (7) individual or individuals replenish the "prowler" by a visit to that place, nnd not infrequently these visits are attended at-tended with wrecked automobiles, bloody fights, etc., creditable to the t'rfnk fiend. Monday night waB made hideous up in the region of Summit with this sort of proceedings. Tho only relief hiust come from a statewide state-wide prohibition law and the people of the state should rise up in their dignity nnd might and demand it. |
