TROUBLE FOR SOMEBODY.
We Sound a Warning Note to Persona
Who Furnish Liquor to Men of
Intemperate Habits.
It has been an open secret in Reyn
oldsvllle for sometime that somebody
In town buys and furnishes liquor to
men who cannot get drinks in tbe bar
rooms at this place. The law is very
strict, but no one seems to have taken
the trouble to enforoe the law, and,
consequently, mon of Intemperate
habits continue to get drunk so long
as they have tbe price to buy the
liquor. Some of these days the law
will be enforced and somebody will get
into trouble, as we know of one case,
at least, where a little detective work
is b. ing done. A fellow wbq is mean
enough to buy liquor for another
wbo cannot buy it himself, deserves
to be punished to the full extent of the
law. Most of the chaps who buy liquor
do so to get a drink out of tbe bottle
themselves. It would be touch better
to think now of the disgrace 'that
relatives would suffer If you are ar
rested and sent to jail for furnishing
liquor to men of intemperate habits,
therefore stop right now. The next
bottle may be the one that will cause
your arrest.
