Tie wiliskey power of Minneapolis
has in 4 most bTaZen manner thrown
oft a challenge TO the aw-abiGng PEG
pie OF the city on an issue between the
hone with its peaceful Sabbath. and
the saloon, and the law-abiding citi-
ZenS at once responded III trumpet
tones. The action Of the city council,
Il ma ority of whose members on Fri
day evening last voted to deprive cti
Zeis OF the right to enter complaint
for The violation OF the law requiring
saloons to be closed on Sunday, is an
almost unparalleled piece Of audacity.
The saloon forces had gained control OF
the city administration, bat the courts
and the law were still i'll the way. AS
they couli not bride the courts. they
boldly determined to d2molisl certain
legal impeGlmentS to the full freedom
OF their traffic OH Sunday So a major
ity OF the city council were induced to
/ pass an ordinance investing the mayer
and police with the sole righ: TO lodge
complaints for violation Of the ordi-
nance against the sale of liquors on
Sunday. The ordinance is undoubted-
+ ly in violation Of constitutional law,
and is therefore void
Bat rs soon as The news of this at
tempt to override law spread through
out the city Indignation was aroused
everywhere. Hence the great mass
meeting on Sunday afternoon at the
Lyceum theatre, with two immense
over flow meetings, noticed elsewhere
These three great mass meetings,
with their ferviel Impeachment of
tai;nleSs officials and Scathing indict-
.aent5 OF the saloon power, cannot fail
10 do good in bringing puhlc senti-
! mCnt to Il focus leading to some def
rite form of CAMPAIGN against the
