126 HARVARD LAW REVIEW,
Common carriers must obtain a certificate from the county auditor that the liquors are in transport to a town agent,^ and must not deliver to one intending to violate the law.* Moreover, any traveller bringing liquors to a person with knowledge of his intent to sell,^ or taking orders for purchase,^ is guilty of a misde- meanor.
Any person selling liquors three times within six months is a common seller.^ No person shall keep a drinking shop,^ or adver- tise the sale of liquors.*
Enforcement. — To execute these laws local special constables are appointed,^ the existing officers are enjoined to make extra efforts.' and, if the local force in a county be lax, thirty or more tax-payers therein may petition the governor to appoint State constables for such district.^
The officers may enter and search suspected premises by war- rant, issued under written information on oath of any citizen, male or female,^^ or without a warrant on reasonable cause to suspect a sale.^^ They may arrest, without a warrant, a person found in the act of sale or transportation, and may seize all liquors and all ap- pliances for sale.^
Prosecutions. — It shall be the duty of the district attorney,^ the attorney-general,** or the selectmen ^ to prosecute under this law. But in those States where buildings kept for illegal sale are declared common nuisances a private citizen may get an injunction,** or may abate the nuisance."
Evidence. — The finding of intoxicating liquors in a place other than a dwelling-house,*® the exposure of signs, bottles, or United States coupon receipts,*® the delivery from stores, steamers, or wagons used as places of common resort,*^ are all prima facie evi- dence of sale or intent to sell.
