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.
