enforcing the Excise law. and herewith would
like to ask the following question, nrGt stating
that believe there is law in this State which
says that no store whatsoever should be open on
Sunday. Now, since the liquor dealers are
bounded in this manner, why should not the
grocers butchers, bakers, milkmen and also the
cars be stopped from doing business on this day'
My idea is that. since this law has not been re-
pealed, why should there be any diScrimination
