(Kincardine' Reporter) .' .
For a. long *lie this eectn*2i Paas
-teen the scene of operatioi}, of a
moonshine still. It was no secret to
many, but it was impossible for, the
officers of the law to get the right
clue as to where.it was locat-d. Cer-
tain parties Were saiapeeted, hut sus-
picion didn't go. Around the streets
could be heard the remarks that the
law and ;theses who ,should enforce •it-
were lax in. their duty. There is 'an
old saying that' it's a long lane that -
has no turn;,, In ,this case. a, still had
.a long run ,without : molestation, but
pan Monday mornira, July 3rd, a party
composed of Chief James Farrell,
County ConstableaFrank•Cuyler, Rev-
enue . Officer Jos...Wltate, and , Provin-
dal Officer Blood' left Kincardine ear
ly, Their Aire was to find the still and
et the boys :who Were su'u lying the
moonshine. They succeeded „in. landing
the still, Itwas in action At the time
and a young man,who had been salt.
ing the cattle, was seen coming from
located. When the party. left -town:
the direction in which the still was
they headed for the farm sof Archie
Stewart, lot 35, 'North . Line. Here
they found Albert Stewart hitching
up a.. horse. He inainediatel<-. ran for
',the house..Chief Farrell went to one
. door and Constable Blood to the other
They got into the house, but did' not
find anything. Coming out they began
a thorough search of ' the premises
but found nothing around to indicate
thatthey were , on the right track.
Chief Farrell was convinced • that he
was landing near the 'place where
booze was "being made, The result
° 'was that he and Joe White took a
walk. The chief made friends with the
dog, and scan a well beaten path was
found, They 'came to one pully and
passed . through it without any dis-
covery' However, there' was a smell
that gave direction, andwith the dog
trudging along in .a friendly: manner,
theycarne to the second gully. It. is
:away back on the farm, and was an
ideal location for a stili; Here they
found the•plant in full operation. The.
stoves had been recently put out, and
everything was warm, while whiskey
Was dripping into :the pail at the -end
:of ..the. coils. About three gallons of
.booze was found and nine .barrels of
mash; There; ,were' two oil.stoves -and'
a big. copper boiler}'. To this was at-
tached ' the coils through which' the-
:liquor passed and these lead to a big
barrel: of. cold water where condensa-
tion took place before going into the
till pail. Itis said the mash was made:
from wheat. The .stuff is fairly vile.
and not what would be calrert Toort"
whiskey. The still is not first-class.
Inspector White dubs it as somewhat
crude. The outfit • was located by a
convenient .'spring creek. 'The capa-
city is said to be• about fifteen gal-
lons: The stuff.. it is said; has been
selling at $oa'. quart in this district, '
Now comes the amazing• part of the
thing. 'The officers have laid •inform-
ation against Archie Stewart, who
owns the farm He bought the farm
from his brother' Albert about a year
ago. Archie called' into :the Reporter
Office and 'assured usthat he was not •
near it and didn't know anything
about the still.` It was beins' carried
on. unbeknown to ,ham,'' It's tough en•
