ANCHORAGE HAS
TROUBLE WITH
BOOZE
Anchorage, — The Anchorage
Tinifis for Nov. 9 contains utartllng
and extremely sensational charge
concerning alleged unlawful and
immcrai doings in. one of the laj-go
cafes of the city. The article re
*<rrod to says:
"dan Francisco's Barbary Coast
in it- palmiest days never presented
such scenes as are nightly staged
in the Mint Grill of Anchorage. Al
though the city is presumably "dry"
and no liquor is sold within its
limits, here nightly are to be seen
men and women in the various
stage? of intoxication reeling about
the floor of the place and conduct
ing themselves in a manner that
wculd put to shame a Dawson dance
hall girl.
"Last night and the night before
the Mint Grill was the scene of the
most disgraceful spectacle Which
probably Ji;'s ever been seen in
thi6 city. To enter into details of
the performances of the men, wo
men and girls present at these af
fairs, would prevent the passage of
the Times through the United
States mail.
"Suffice to say, in one night ft
cast of whiskey and a barrel of
beer were on tap by one party and
there is no record of any of the
booze being left. Women and girls
unused to the effects of intoxi
cants were given 'whiskey with beer
chasers' a combination which soon
put them in a condition where they
lost all their self possession and #1
l>i\ved liberties on the part of their
mal companions which in their
right senses they never would
have countenanced.
"Back of the main hall of the
Mint Grill are several small "pri
vate dining rooms.' These rooms
have been in constant demand of
late and many are the stories of
tie. happenings which are supposed
to have occurred behind these
doors.
"Anchorage is a dry town. No
liquor is supposed to be sold with
in its borders, in addition there is
a proclamation issued by President
Wilson which makes its illegal to
give away liquor in Anchorage and
the Times demands that the pro
visions of this proclamation be put
into effect immediately, in order
to prevent a recurrence of the
disgraceful scenes which have oc
curred frequently of late.
"If liquor is to be consumed in
Anchorage it might better be jold
over liceiised bars, rather than, ped
dled out in joints like the Mint
where its disposition is unchecked.
It is safe to say that iio reputable
saloone on the outside would have
allowed such permances as are
of nightly occurrence at the Mint
and unless some steps are taken
to prevent their repetition the Times
will appeal direct to Washington to
see that the law is enforced as
intended."
J. E. Hensler, proprietor of the
Mint Grill at Auchorage, was ar
rested in Seattle on October 17th.
on a charge of violating the Mann
Act. The woman in the case was
alleged to be Jennie Crawford. The
federal grand jury at Seattle refus
ed to return an indictment against
Heirsler and he was speedily re
leased.
