There's Trouble Brewing
Around the Bung-hole
There was a ripple of excitement in
Alliance Saturday night when it oc
eanic known that a raid was being
made on the houses of ill repute,
charges having been made against
the keepers of dispensing liquid re
freshments to their guests. Two 01
more detectives, under the leadership
of Carl Slatt, of Lincoln, have been
here for several weeks securing evi
dence and when the officers, consisting
of the regular police officers, Laing
and Cox, Sheriff Wiker 'and deputy,
Con. Stirkle, M. F. Donovan, Messrs.
Wilson and Hogle of the railroad force,
swooped down on those resorts they
secured two barrels of beer and a small
quantity of liquor. Queen Snow,
Nellie Thompson, Georgia Palmer and
Jennie Woods had a preliminary hear
ing before County Judge Berry yester
day and gave bonds in the sum of $300
each for their appearance at the next
term of district court, which wilf be
held in December. The detectives
testified that they bought booze at the
places of business of these women and
in one instance the good old beer the
genuine article was dispensed from a
tray on which an 'hop ale' bottle occu
pied a prominent place. As thedetective
put it, "that was the latest scheme in
augurated." But that was not all. George Smith
got his foot in it on the charge of sell
ing booze to the weary wanderer about
town and he to was bound over to the
district court.
Yesterdav Everett Cook and F. J.
Dctzold were brought into court, charg
ed with selling liquor, but when the
witnesses were put on the stand they
swore that they bought no booze from
Cook or Betzold and the defendants
were discharged. W. O. Cheney, one
of the witnesses, was then placed under
arrest and bound over to court.
Complaint was made against John
Anderson, manager of the drug store
at Hemingford, and he was bound over
to the next term of court.
It is not improbable that a petition
will be presented to the distiict judge
to call a grand jury and that the gov
ernment will take a hand in the matter.
No law abiding citizen will deny that
all bootlegging should be stopped and
those who violate the laws should be
punished. However, The Herald does
not believe it is for a newspaper to say
that anyone is guilty until it has been
so proven in court, hence we state only
the proceedings of record and refrain
from further comment at this time.
D. W. Hayes, superintendent of the

is not
enough. They seem to think two suits of clothes
bought at one time, or two overcoats, would b'e ex
travagant. The fact is, if you buy our
Hart Schaffner & Marx
clothes, two suits or two overcoats at a time would
be economy. A raincoat, shown here, or a fancy
fabric overcoat for daily wear; and a black or oxford
overcoat for dress occasions; a fancy weave suit of
some new color and pattern for business, and a black
or blue serge for changing occassionally, and for
dressier times; every man ought to have such an
outfit.
You'd find it economy; and the clothes will all
last last longer if you don't wear them continuously;
get them pressed occasionally.
We want to see our customers dressed right.
We'll take care of it for ou if you'll let us.
