The Sunday Law,

The saloons have received notice to
keep their places shut on Sunday as
the ordinance now on the books re.
quired. About twice q year this no.
LITIGATION Is given, and 1t is strictly
enforced for q few weeks, or nearly
so, and then Sunday gets smashed all
to pieces again. In these spasmodic
periods of stringency the ones who
really have to close are those who have
no back doors to their saloons, while
those who have back doors and front
curtains get the Sunday trade on the
quiet, at least that part of it that does
not go to the beer gardens, which
seem never to be interfered with. The
order is In fact intended to brace
upsS the saloon mon some,
and keep them from running toe
openly on Sunday. There have been
Of late many disgusting street scenes
in front of saloons as people are com
Ing to and going from church, and
hence a check must be put to the
Sunday business. The order to shut
up, however, should be q square deal
for all, and If the. authorities meal
"close," 1t should apply to beer gar
dens and saloons having back doors,
as we'll BIS those which are not thus
conveniently for plying the trade or
the quiet.

A Mysterious Shooting.

There was q rather mysterious
shooting affair which occurred on
Main street, at the corner of Ninth
avenue, Tuesday night. The police
seem to know little about 1t, but from
what can be learned it appears that a
young man stopped at Anderson's
saloon about midnight and tried to
have those inside open up to give him
a drink. They refusing to open, he
became angry and pulling out a re-
volver fred through the window.
Some n inside returned the fire
lodging q bullet In the young mans
shoulder, the wound not being very
serious, however.

Aside from the charitable feature of
the promised entertainment, there is
the promise of a very interesting lee

CUMBERLAND, MD., March l0.-In the
Washington county court Friday the inter-
esting appeal case Of the Mayor and City
Council vs. W. S. Herbert was disposed Of.
Mr.. Herbert was agent Of the Chicago Beef
establishment and was sued for violation
OF the market ordinance OF the town which
prohibits the sale Of fresh meat outside Of
the market space, during market hours.
The Court held that the ordinance was
not unreasonable, and the power conferred
upon the town to regulate It's markets,
within the scope Of the Legislature to grant.
They therefore gave Judgment for the town,
imposing fine OF 81 and costs or ten days
imprisonment in Jail. The case has pecl.
liar interest from the fact there Is now
before our council petition asking for
the repeal OF similar ordinance TO that
under which Mr.. Herbert was fined.

DAKOrA,s SCANDAL.
A CommlssIon TO Locate Its Capital Will
Buy up all the Town Lots


WASHINGTON, March l0.-More detailed
accounts Of the plan Of locating the new
capital Of Dakota add considerably to par
ticulars already published. The new cap
ital is only intended for Southern Dakota,
as the northern half OF the Territory ex.
poets to be set off at the next session ol
Congress. Nevertheless it has delegates
from Northern Dakota who made up the
majority which passed the "Syndicate"bill,
This was drawn up by Governor ordway,
and rushed through the lower House by a
vote OF 10 to s, without being printed, OF
even read. Then 1t went to the Council,
where the vote was tie for some time.
But, finally, two doubtful members were
secured, and it went through. Nine com.
missioners are thus given authority to 10.

tory. These nine commissioners are un-
known men, who are acting for, and rep.
resent the Syndicate" This organization
has stock Of 81 100000 which Is held by
a ring OF politicians, the chief among whom
is Governor 0rdway.
Each Of the legislators who yeted for the
bill Ia reported to have received Sl5, 900 in
this stock. When the commissioners
shall decide where in the prairie the new
capital shall be located, then the "syndi-
cate" will quietly buy up all the "town
let's" aud on the proceeds Of the sale reap
an abundant harvest. ....
No one else knowing what spot Is to be
thus favored, the Syndicate" will have an
opportunity to buy the whole "city" In ad.
vance. By the law the commissioners are
moi allowed to buy any land in the town
where they decide to locate the capital
until July /, 1854, but in the meantime
their relatives will have the master share
| in the stock, and this can easily be trans
ierred.
The power OF the Commission is abso
lutte. They do not recommend site fol
the Capital, but absolutely fix it. The
only condition Is 100 acres Of land and
100000 bonus TO be given to the territory
by the town upon which they decide
Several well-established places are already
taking measures to do this, but the syn
dicaten will either locate in an entirely
new town, at come point to which rail
road can easily be built, or else buy VI
seven thousand acres of land due to somt
place which has already passed It's embryt
state.
