Mav " 1 , l I a rfamMer Vr Ton' hi- been vlnltinn her mother, Mrv Andru Officers Raided Warehouse Lo cated at Gardiner Nineteen Shipments of liquor, fain Contain in: 24 Bottles of Whisky, found There by the Officers In one of the most sweeping raids ever attempted In Houglas County special ollicers sent to (iardiuer by Sheriff Ceorge ljuine and IMstri-t Attorney tleorge Neuner, late last week confiscated 4 r.ti quart bottles containiiiK whisky from the ware house of tho Cardiner Mill Company. The liquor has been shipped to Koseburg, where it is be ing held pending such time es th court Issues an order authorizing It: destruction. According to statements made by the prosecuting officers here today they received a "tip" that the llquot had been shipped from San Krancisco on the steamer San Cabriel, and war due to arrive in Gardiner late las week. A hurried conference fol lowed here, and the district attorney and sheriff decided to send special officers there to intercept the viirgo. The whisky represented 19 ship nients ol quarts each, and was consigned to as many residents of the Gardiner vicinity. An exumina tion of the different bottles con taim-d in the shipment indicated thai they contained whisky and not beer as shown by the labels. After satlv fying themselves that the consign ments were i!li;i: in character and a violation of tlie prohibition law now in effect in Oregon, tiie officers con fiscated the entire shipments. I n der the present statutes of this ptatc the liquor can be destroyed as soon as an older Is made by a court hav in:, proper Jurisdiction. In th raid on the Gardiner ware house the officers beliee they havt put u quietus on one of the boldest at i nijils to defeat the prohibition law ever attempted in Oregon. Know ing they had a right to pur hase and ship into Gardiner IM quarts ol beer every 2s days, the purchasers of thf liquor evidently hit upon the sehenu of having the beer supplemented with whisky, thereby seeming p move liberal supplv of the stronge. liquid than allowed bv law. That they were successful in having their orders filled without dit'ticiiltv war attested by the shipments received lat last week. Included in the cor. sit:ntner,t were lit shipments, each of which contain d the allotted 1! I bot ties. Had the beer not been supple mented by whisky tlie receipt of tin liquor would have been legal, and the officers would have been power less to Interfere with the delivery of the cargo. Pnder the Oregon prohibition law not more than two quarts of whisky an be received h any one member of a family in Ore kop within -s days. While Ihe officers refuel to di vulge the names of the officers niak ing the raid or tlie identity of tin persons to whntii the liquor wa" ron signed, it was intimated at noon to day that a thotough In vest iy.it ion would be made. Krom the ntiite nients of one of tlie prosecuting offi cers at noon today it is apparent that the com mon carrier handling the liquor is subject to prosecution under Ihe Oregon prohibition law Inasmuch as the consignees bad not received the liquor, and had not f..,-td.. false affidavits, it is not he lieved thev can be punished It l understood, however, that severa1 Gardiner teen have l-en summoned' to arne;:r before the trrand jurv. and te'-!nienv "av tave something to do with the investigation now ir progress IHstrM Attorney N'ennei said this afternoon that he would n'alio nn defi'Mte eh an.'" in the af fair unMl the investigation had bp r ompet d.
