New Liskeard 6.00 5:. 6.25 5. 6.25 5s Square rer Square ‘er Square Square As noted in The Advance last week so many complain§s were made at Cobalt about noisy drunks at nights in certain sections of the town that the Council decided to puyÂ¥ on a specâ€" ial man to clean up. The first man put on did not last. He had too many friends apparently and the result was thatr in a few: hours ""the sidewalk was not wide enough for him,"‘‘ as one Councillor phrased it. The special officer had been highly recommended and had given good service as a specâ€" ial policeman on previous occasions, but evidently he fell a victim to one of the curses of the trade,â€"the tendâ€" ency of some people tb show their friendliness to a police officer by feedâ€" ing him liquor. No oneâ€" offering liquor to an officer on duty is any friend to that officer. Usually he is actuated by exactly opposite motives to #hose of friendliness. He simply desires in mean fashion to *‘get one on the police,""‘ while pretending to let the officer *‘have one on him." Considerable sympathy should be exâ€" pressed by good sports for the stand of the North Lard policeman who some years ago *‘*"beat up‘‘ ‘one of these *‘‘friends‘‘ for offering him a drink. The usual method is to take the ‘‘friend‘‘ and the liquor in charge and have a friendly time before Magâ€" istrate Atkinson. The special officer at Cobali, however, was not wise enough apparently to do this, and as a consequence he lost his position in disgrace. Another man was put on last weekâ€"end and it is to be hoped he will equal the meanness of any *‘friend‘‘ offering him liquor by ‘"befriending‘‘ that *‘‘friend‘‘ to the extent of a free stay in the cells.
