Hadnot, according to the officers,
had visions ot an early arraign
ment In polios court on the less
serious accusation of possession or
simply the sal of liquor. But the
officers had different Ideas. In
Hadnot's arrest and the circum
stances pertaining to It they saw
an opportunity to make tew facts
clear at this time.
Their action in this caw carries
with It three warnings:
1. That Salem is going to be an
unhealthy place for "gangs of any
color woo cannot observe the pro
prieties and statutes.
2. That selling or giving liquor to
minors Is going to be followed by
drastic action.
2. That bootleggers and "beer
Jolnts" who are looking forward to
prosperous times during the con
ventions scheduled here during the
next few weeks will find Salem's
ordinarly healthy atmosphere de
cidedly oppressive.
Hadnot's place has been under
police surveillance for some time as
a suspected boose dispensary and
the gathering place for a group ot
local and Portland colored people
whose gatherings have attracted
attention. The raid followed close-
ly upon reports from "lookout" that
