From s number of its subscribers
The Observer hss received com
plaints against the non-opening of

by, unless they rent boxes, they get

is represented that not only does this
new policy work hardship and moon
venience to the complainants but that

Postoffice Department's inauguration
of the unopened-window policy in va

CONCORD. N. C TUESDAY.
FO&CB AND &UZUU ACT.
Is Resorted V Buncombe Officers
la Attempt to H Betaflsr.
Special to Oreensboro News.
As Seville, April 10. The first at
tempt on the part of tbe ofieers of the
law in Buncombe eoaaty to enforce
the search and ssaswre act of the last
general assembly was. made at Black
Mountain Saturday when the officials
of that town arrested a negro charged
with violating tne law. According to
formation received here the officers
made a water haul. It seems that tbe
negro arrested bad gone to tbe ex
press office snd paid for and removed
four gallons of whisky when the offi
cers, evidently aware of the move
ments of the negro and tbe presence In
the express office of the whisky, serv
ed a warrant on tbe defendant, placed
him under srreet and seized the li
quor. It is said tna the negro was
taking ths whisky from the express
office to his boms snd that the seiz
ure was made on the public higbwav.
It is understood hereby well informed
lawyers that thai law does not contem
plate the seizure- of whisky at an ex
press office, railway station or while
being delivered, for instance, to a pri
vato residence or a club. If, however,
whisky io an amount more than two
gallons is delivered to a grocery store,
"blind tiger," etc. snch place may be
searched and the whiskey seized. A
private residence, whether occupied
by a white man or a negro, cannot, un
der the law be searched. It is claimed
by the defendant, according to infor
mation received hereJthai he was tak
ing the whisky from the express office
to his residence" "Whet served with a
warrant. The outcome of the trial
will doubtless beiwatehed with inter
seizure law and those opposed to it.
