Perhaps, as the liberals are fewer,
they are quicker gone over. The follow

First-There are no reliable statistics
concerning these bodies back of 1880.
The Unitariaps have credit with 1913
churches at that date. In 1910 they re-
ported $50 churches; in 1850 they re-
ported 246 churches; in 1860 they re-
ported 254 churches, and in 1870 re-
ported 1928 churches, and in 1880 re-
port of 1856 churches.

as having S53 parishes and 5l2 pastors;
in 1850 with 1,069 parishes and 642 pas

with $50 parishes and 729 ministers.

we can find is as follows: In 1910 they

with 81 ministers and 1860 commune

STILL PERPLEXING.
Further Speculation on the Ray
Tin Box Matter.


swell, chief. what is going to be done
with those saloonkeepers who paid
money to Ray, now that the council has
refused to act on the matter?"
That remark was uttered in police
headquarters yesterday afternoon, and
the next moment a hatless figure, ap-
parently considerably agitated, was fly-
ing across Bridge square with distended
coat tails to get Out,of sight. while the
superintendent of police. with a small
section of gas main in his hand, peered
around the corner of the city hall, NUT
terlng, ''Pll use gun on the next man
that asks me that question:"
And the chiefs anger was pardOna-
bic, for that little tin box matter has
been talked to death; yet there is food
for good deal of comment in it yet.
What will be done with those saloon
keepers is most perpleXing question
and one not settled without some litiga-
ton. The police commission couldn't
settle it. The council dares not handle
if. There is desire on the part of the
city officials to do what is right by the
saloOnkeepers who were so unfortunate
Guilty lies in the doing it. With
one exception all the saloon
keepers who deposited $500 with the
eX-iicense inspector, only to lose it,
have deposited an additional $500. They
are out the 1000 required for license,
but the license they have not received.
1t is possible that the city is liable for
the money lost, it having been paid to a
city official who was acting, if not I'M
der explicit orders, at least according TO
an understanding. But that question
must be settled In the courts. The
council couldn't act, because by so do
ing every alderman would throw him
self open to prosecution and a fine of
not more than $500. The high license
law provides that any officialin any con-
tributing 10 the issue OF license
to any man for less than the regular
fee-S1 ,000-shall he deemed quito of a
misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of
not to exceed $500. The city attorney
pointed out that provision to the license
committee of the council; hence the re-
fusal to take action.
There are just two ways for settling
this license matter, and no more, ac-
cording to the best authority. The first
way out of the woods is for the incom-
ing administration to close its eyes and
let these salOonkeeperS continue doing
business without a license. But that
manifestly has its drawbacks. The
other is for the parties who have lost to
bring actions in the district court, and
get judgments against the city. And
there is doubt about this being a pos
sibility. There the matter rests, Just
where 1t was five months ago.
