Constable Bernard Davles on Unlicensed Sale
of L'qnor.
HIS EXPERIENCE IN THE PAST
Four Years Ago tho Hotelkeepers of
the North End Formed an Associa
tion and by Co-operating with Con
stablo Davics Much Good Was Ac
complishedMr. Davies' Opinion
on the Subjoct News Notes
A 1 liiiiUNE reporter yosturJay called
the attention of Constable Iiirnard Da
vies, of I he Second ward, to tha previ
ous articles in this dep ii tinent dealing
with the question of "noles in tho
wall.'' Mr. Davis was some time ago
one of the most eii' rgotio co'iulables in
connection with the suppression of ille
gal drinking shops and his remarks
will be of interest.
He stated that four years ago the
North End saloon lwepers formed au
association from which emanated a re
quest to him lo return all unlicensed
drinking shops in the Second ward.
Furlueriiiore, thev promised all legiti
mate assistance in obtaining reliable
evidence and securing convictions of
guilty parties. Accompanying this was
ih- ir expression that ttiey were anxious
to live up to the letter of the law uud
to be protected in turn by wiping out
the unlicensed business. Mr, Davis
added:
"They did nssiat we and tho result
was that with our joiut efforts wo t"
uuvuda conviction in nearly every chho
and practically wip 'd out the boles iu
tho wall in the Second ward, llow
evur nothing was dona in the adjoin
ing wards and naturally our hotel
keepers became discouraged in having
to light the battle alone."
IN UNION TIlICItK IS HTKKNUTH,
Mr. Davies said with some emphasis
that he is confident that if the hotel
keepers niul the citizens throughout
the city and county would join hands
iu the crusade and assist the constables
in one united, effort the days of the un
licensed liquor seller would soon ba
numbered. lievertiug to the proceed
ings in the Second ward, he added:
"Since the disruption of tin work of
the Hotelkoeper's association I have re
turned several parties, but have had no
assistance or encouragement on tho
p it t of the citiz tus except at rare inter
vals an anonymous letter, aud in these
casi s they have resulted in an expense
to the county and practically eiionur
aged other oli'enders to ba more deliiut
when they saw tho poor results of the
prosecution I am s ilisfl id that there
are a number of unlicensed pUces iu
this ward, tut I hvo no evidence
sullioietit to convict. I know what the
law requires mo to do and I try to do
it. I believe if tho county would ex
pend a littlo money iy way of remun
erating constables, say or we
could all aril to do sola j detective work
and be held in some resptct by the
1)1! hue.
In conclusion Mr, mvia made the
llowiug remarks which are of special
importance:
llie tilaiu fact or tne matter is,
ere are a great untiy voters in this
county and some i mcials who do not
want crime of this kind suppressed. It
can be stopped if the ciliz-ms want it,
nut under existing laws, without as
istunce, tho constables of this county
will never wipe out this illegal trailio.
MORE CARE IS EXERCISED.
Mr. Davies outspoken words coming
from a man of bis experience and
knowledge of the question are of great
value, lie bus in concise sentences re
dded tho opinions of many lending
ami respected citizms in the North
End. Some one must be at fault in
this disgraceful neglect in carrying out
the law. Sinco the matter has been
ventilated in 'J he Tribune an improve
ment has been m initert in some parts
of Providence, and more care is exer
cised iu these vile dens as to persons
who nre granted admission.
A prominent citizen of the North
End said to a Titint'NE reporter ycter
day: "Many p rsons are delighted
with Til li lr.ini'NES espousing the
movement eg luH boles iu thu wall
The Bush and Notch are honeycombed
with these places. L ist Sunday 1 oh
served batches of boys ranging from 10
to lb years of age entering these openly
and without iliiliuulty and others of the
same age coming out in a drunken con
ilitinn. I mil convinced that more
seeds of evil are sown by these places
than by auy oue other cause.
