& Sunday Law War.

The police Of Cincinnati had lively time
on Sund Y enforcing the Owen law, which
is a law requiring the saloons TO be closed
on Sundays The saloon keepers to the
number Of 2ls entered into al agreement
70 keep their saloons open on Sundays II
defiance Of the law aud the police. Their
programme was to have themselves released
upon bonds as fast as arrested and 20 return
70 their saloons and open them.
On last Sunday morning the police began
making arrests. The bondsmen Of the
saloon keepers were at the police stations
and promptly furnished bonds for the re-
lease Of the prise .ers. There were a great
many exciting scenes, and in several locali-
ties ere came very near being serious riots.
After most OF the saloon keepers had
been arrested two or three times the bonds
men declared that they would sgn no m re
bonds. The saloon keepers saw that they
were beaten, because, without bondsmen,
they would have to remain in the lookup
until discharged by the magistrate the
following day. They therefore concluded
that their wiser course was 70 permit their
saloons TO remain closed.
For twenty years Cincinnati has been
trying to eufJrce Su day law. II is
probable, however, that she has fl lally sue
ceeded In doing so. The authorities are de-
termined, and the police, 1t seems, can be
depended upon to do their duty.
One thing in connection with this saloon
war in Cincinnati is worthy of more than a
passing notice and gives it m re than
local interest. It is that all the saloon
keepers who agreed to resist the law were
foreigners. There was MT a native Ameri-
can nor colored man among them.
Public sentiment in Cincinnati is clearly
IN favor Of closing the saloons on Sundays.
as 1t IS IN every other city in the country.
When saloons keep open on Sundays they
do 50 in defa lce of public sentiment. The
political power they exercise influences the
authorities to close their eyes to the fact
that they are violating the law. It is only
when outraged public sentiment, as in Gin
cinnau. protests vigorously against the
failure to enforce the law that the authori-
ties can be duced to do their duty.
he voice of the majority must be
obeyed. The law must be RESPECTED If a
small minority are permitted to do as they
please there will soon be an end of law and
order. The example Of the saloon keepers
will be followed by others who object to
some law that interior es with their pleasure
or business. Those who don'5 like the laws
of the community in which they live snould
go elsewhere. There is no law that compels
them to remain, bat as long as they remain
they should be required to yield Implicit
obedie-ce to the laws, or suffer the conse-
quences.

SAVANNAH OF TODAY.
The Morning News Annual Trade Review
Few Pointers in Relation Thereto.

The MORNING NEWS Annual Trade Re
view, containing complete and compre-
hensive statement of the business of Savau-
nah, will be issued early in September
The year ending Sept. l, 1889, will be a
memorable one il the history of Savannah,
and the MORNING NEWS proposes to give
the widest publicity TO what Savannah has
done, is doing, and proposes to do in the
near future. There is no better way in
which the outside world can be informed of
what is going on in a community than
through the columns of its newspapers
The MORNING NEWS ia its forthcoming
Trade Review will show by facts and
figures that Savannah is one of the most
progressive and healthy cities in the union,
and that her citizens, judging from what
they have done during the last year, are
fully alive to the great ess of her future.
They have proven by the various local i'm
provements they have made, and by the
active interest they have manifested in
railroads projected for her benefit, that
they are not afraid to invest their money
within her limits. They have demonstrated
beyond all doubt that they have confidence
in her great natural advantages, and that
they believe that her deep water harbor
and her great railroad systems will, in a
few years make her the greatest seaport
city in the south.
The MORNING News will, in its Trade
Review, present to the world Savannah OF
to-day" IN a resume of what has hereto
fore appeared in its columns. The review
will be in such shape that, at g
been accomplished during the year.
The Trade Review will contain articles
showing the bu mess of the city during the
year and present indisputable facts which
promise a steadily increasing prosperity.
1t will establish the fact that there is NO
healthier city in the south and none more
pleasant in which to live and do bushes.
either in summer or winter. 1t will
prove by figures that Savannah i:
without a rival on the South Atlantic
coast, and that by their acts her citizens
show that they are satisfied that she i.
only at the beginning of her commercial
greatness.
The Trade Review will be printed in the
usual form, and will be a newspaper which
those who feel pride in their city will
take pleasure in sending to their friends.
1t will afford business men an opportun.
ity Of saying something about their business
and themselves. 1t is hoped that in size, as
well as in other respects, it will sur lass
every previous edition. That, however
depends entirely upon the orders it re
ceiveS from advertisers.
1t is desired to distribute $4,000 copies
and that number will be distributed, if the
response of the business men is as prompt
and liberal as ne have reason to believe II
will be.
Orders for advertising or for copies OF
the paper can be handed in at the business
office, or, if desired they will be called fol
by the canvassers.

There is no doubt that Kansas is a great

John James Iugalls. 1t SEEMS that since
the prohibition law went into effect it has
been discovered that the state is well
adapted to the production of vinegar. Those
who have heard Ingalls, speeches have sus-

story that "a Mr.. Ste 'nberg planted twenty
acres to melons and sold the seeds to an
eastern seed house for $500. From the
melons he manufactured ZOO barrels of
vinegar, which he values at $40 per barrel.

equal to, if not better than, the cider vine

There appears to be an irrepressible con-

Malone, try as ne may, will not be able to

is that Malone, while he is a shrewd poll

lie acceptable to the really strong men in

From the Montgomery advertiser
Her dimpled cheeks are pale;
She's lily of the vale,
Not a rose.
In muslin or a lawn
She is fairer than the dawn,
To her beaux.
Her boots are thin and neat,
She IS vain about her feet,
1t Is sad.
She ainputates here RS,
But her Eyes are like the stars,
Overhead.
On balcony at night,
With a tleeCy cloud of white
Round her hair.
Her grace, ah, who could paint9
She would fascinate a saint,

It's matter Of regret,
She's a bit of o coquette,
Whom | sing.
On her cruel path she goes,
With a half dozen beaux
On her string.
But let that all pass by.
And her maiden moments fly,
Dew empedrled.
When She,marries IN nv life.
She will make til, detrest wife
