Closing the saloons in Alexandria.

Mayor Smith, Of Alexandria has inaugurated
u Temperance reform and thrown a bomb
among the saloon-keepers by issuing orders to
the police to enforce strictly the Sunday liquor
law. Under his direction the police last Sat.
urday notified the saloon-keepers that they
must close their houses promptly at midnight
Saturday night and not reopen then until
Monday morning, Heretofore the saloons
have been open publicly on Sundays, and no
earnest attempt has been made recently to
keep them closed. Yesterday the saloons were
all closed so far AS could be judged from tho
outside, although it is chronicled that many a
drink was sold ION the sly" to thirsty Alcxan.
drians. The police kept close watch of the
places, and two restaurant keepers were ar
rested before night, and will be tried by Mayor
Smith to-day. When DIR. Johnson was mayor
ho took similar stops to enforce the Sunday
law, and for that reason, il is stated was OPP
posed strongly by the liquor.teaers in the re.
cent election, all of whom worked hard to elect
Smith and defeat Johnson. 1t seems now that
they have been "host by their own pctard."
The strict enforcement of the liquor law will
be considered unfortunate by certain class of
Washingtonians, for whom Alexandria has
always been an attractive place on Sunday.
