Secretary s. P. Thrasher. of the

in view of incorrect reports oi
events connected with the Dpabury
Fair. which have appeared. l desire to
make an accurate. though brief state:
ment of the main taste. , .
The League appeared at the fair in
response to appeals of reputable citig
sens oi Dahbury. it found fourteen
liquor shops. some gambling games
in operation and many others watch:
ing their chance. Universsily the pm
prietors asserted that they had been
guaranteed protection.
So far as the Agricultural Society is
conccr d. i do not believe this.
Dynamos does. however. impli-
e another oilicial authority. For
this reason and because liquor I log
and gambling had been previously al-
lowed at the fair. l judged it equitable
not to apprehend the offenders with-
out mercy. but to stop their nefarious
practice and leave them to profit by .
the warning another year.
The liquor places were closed and
fifteen or more gambling schemes turn-
cd away:
The Danbury police department ren-
dered no voluntary assistance in the
work. Capt. Ginty arrested one of our
agents for an alleged fault of calling
him a vulgar name, yet he himself, by
his own admission, kicked the agent
and in my hearing covered the latter
with profane and indecent epithets. i
do not for a moment credit the cap
tain's unsupported story and will not
permit the case to rest where it is.
Another. and special oilicer at night-
fall dogged my heels. repeatedly call-
ing out my name and pointing me out
to disgruntled outlaws in an offen-
sive manner. I remonatrsted and he
proclaimed his authority to arrest me.
at the same time half displaying a
badge.
The badge was worn on his suspen-
ders. and I pushed aside the vest to
get a view of the same. an action which
he himself invited by word and pos-
ture. This was the full extent
of the assault 1 am charged with com-
mitting. i went to the police oillce and
related the circumstances. in conse-
quence the ofllcer was arrested. and
since he concocted a charge of assault
against me. my arrest followed.
The prosecuting attorney stated that
there was no case against me. and ~the
Judge expressing the opinion that this
was equivalent to vindication, granted
the motion to holle. Nevertheless. l
was disappointed that I did not have
the opportunity that a trial would have
afforded of showing how absolutely
uncalled for and malicious was the
charge against me.
The clergymen and sterling citizens
who solicited our assistance. as well as
many others cognizant of the facts as
they occurred, hare expressed their
emphatic approval of our course at the
fair.
The League can trust its friends to
remain stiperior to the eddies of irre-
sponsible gossip that occasionally sp—
pcnrs in certain newspapers.‘
