Disturb Cop’s Siestas;
Police Want Bars Back
PAPEETE, Tahiti, Jan. 27.- Com
plaining that IheiT siestas are re-j
: riou.-ly disturbed by the brawls re
sulting from the selling of liquor by
iihe demijohn instead of by the glass,'
the police here are agitating for the:
i return of the former “by the glass"
system in order that a few officers
may stand watch while the others
got their touch needed rest.
The attempt to diminish the sale
and consumption of liquor In Tahiti,'
by closing the public saloons has:
resulted in a failure, according to j
the police. The law provides that
liquor cannot be dispense'! by the,
glass ait the place of sale, but ul-i
j lows any quantity to be sold by the!
bottle or demijohn I > he taken in j
! that form from the premises. j
The result has he -n that every (
.mall Chinese shop has stocked rum
in bottles and demijohns and has
provided convenient back rooms, al
ii ged to be restaurants, where strong
iavored liquors arc s rvod in tea
cups. Therefore the sale of liquor
b is spread to every part of th city,
; and the resultant fights cut deem..
' ii to the day sleeping house of the
police.
Statistics prove, ihe police assert,
I that the consumption . f liquor has
greatly increased under the present
' system.
