Jones is continuing the plan of having a quiet orderly and lawâ€"abidâ€" ing town, even though it is necessary to have some police court cases to assure this. The court this week had variety as well as numbers.

However, even with some closed, there were some liquor cases to encourage all to observe the law. John Sesinska was charged with having liquor not on his permit, the case being adjourned to next week. J. Petroski was similarly charged and the case similarly remandâ€" ed. Jos Foucault was fined $100.00 and costs on a charge of illegally purchasâ€" ing liquor on his permit for another man. The latter, a taxi driver, was also charged with an offence under the Liâ€" quor Control Act, but the case was disâ€" missed. To round up the liquor end of the court there were four common drunks each fined $10.00 and costs. Variety of Cases at Police Court Here Some More Liquor Cases.
