THE grand jury warned q few of the
Sunday vendors Of the error Of their
ways, and now when a man wants
dose of opium, q loaf of breal, q
cigarette, or tooth pulled, he must
first get doctors prescription.
Without having critically read the
Sunday statutes we do not believe
their intent so absolute as to cut the
people off from necessary or harmless
wants on the good day.
The Savior on several occasions
taught and exemplifed the dictum
that in some cases necessity knows 10
Sunday law. He would have the de-
rallied OK lifted from the ditch, and.
rather than hunger, feed Himself and
all with Him from neigboring corn.
fields.
The needless qualification of morbid
appetites must be the object sought in
the suppression of business on Sunday
by law. 1t cannot be meant that any
natural supply shall become unavail-
able, but the artificial. The poor
drunkard, for instance, whose stomach,
vanished with coffin stain all week,
should have at least one days rest to
bestow on that cruelty dishonored
organ.
If tins presumption be erroneous.
however, and the "Blue Laws" are to
be revived, let US have them with ali
their inquisitions aud punishments
without respect of persons. Let us
have the old logic enforced as law that
if It is wrong to sell it is wrong to buy
If wrong to buy loaf of bread, wrong
to eat it; u cigar, wrong to smoke and
wrong to spit. Or, more seriously.
wrong to get sick il thereby med
icine be needed on Sunday. ifeaucio
0d 05Surd1tm.
Hence, let us have a little sense
about this matter. The law should
reach the people at whom it is aimed
and not used as an engine to run over
those whose wants harm neither
themselves nor neighbors.

WHEN the grand jury OF this county
issued notice to certain storekeepers
in this town to sell no more goods on
Sunday it overstepped its authority.
l. Because it had no right to con
slider prospective violations of law.
2. Because it had no right to as
sumo what the next grand jury will
do.
3. Because it is in no sense the
custodian or censor of the future con-
duct of the people.
Its domain is wholly retrospective so
far as public order and morals are
included. In matters of this nature it
cannot inquire into what will be, nor
assuming anything, warn or threaten.
Its sole prerogative is to investigate
the ''has been,' and to proceed upon
the developments Of its inquiry. In
briefer terms, ''it is the peculiar
province of the grand jury to indict."
Hence, if there was ground to notify
anybody in Frostburg to stop violat-
ing the Sunday law, there was the
same ground to indict that Individual.
Toa few Of oul people the deeply
solemn question occurs-.'w where have
the Commissioners decided to locate
the insane asylum ?"- accompanied
with the fear that it is to be tackled on
to or erected near the almshouse.
Long time ago this paper urged sever
al commanding reasons against this
scheme, and as many more why it
should come to Frostburg. Those
reasons exist to-day in all their pristine
force, and we would like to see our
citizens, sufficient in number and in
fuence, rise to the height of this oc-
casion and put in an uuapproachable
bid for the erection here of the only
county building left. Now is the
time.
