ION the spot; himself adjudicates the liquor
" to no intoxicating. and, without warrant, ar
"rcsts q citizen who can be just as well found
" and arrested upon the warrant of q criminal
magistrate the next morning rs at the hour

reasoning. Tho Sunday law which does
not authorize summary arrests is not
worth farthing. The important point is
10 stop the commission of tho oflenso which is
specially profitable upon the day of its com
mission. The evidence upon which the police
man acts is Just ~ patent as that upon which
he arrests two men who are fighting. Here is
u shop which by common reputation Is grOg
shop. Over the door is tho sign, "Imported
"Spirits, Wine, and Beer" Upon the sides
of the doorway and painted upOn the windows
the information to the public is repeated. In
side IL the bar with its furniture of tumblers,
Of becr-pumps, md Of dccan.ers. Is it IA very
violent presumption that the proprietor sells in
his shop what he adycriises upon his sign
Customers are seen going up to the bar, calling
for drink drinking what they receive, and
paying for 1t: Is it assuming too much 10 con-
slider this priDla Jacie evidence of tho sale of

in that direction.
The Recorder il rs severe rs any Sunday
seller could desire upon the spy syslem.n
IL is not "a pleasant one to consider, but it is
no novelty. Ii is constantly resOrted 10 i'm the
difficult art of aIresting and c0nvicting crimi-
nals. The public may citicise it upon grounds
of public policy, but that il no reason why
the aw-breaker should crticiso it because ne
has been detected through It's agency. His
mouth is shut. 1t is not for him to complain.
All things are working together for the re-
establishment in this city of the old SUNDAY
liquor traffic. This comes partly of tho utter
insincerity of those who have protested will
ingness to break it up. While nobody in
authority cares the rinsng of q beer gias. for
tho enforcement of tho law, and while many
IN authority probably desire for private mo-
tiycs its impudent violation. we shall con-
tnue Ia have what the Recorder calls " the
sights and sounds which the law prohibits"
