The saloon keepers in this vicinity are
anxiousiy awaiting developments in re-
gard to the action of the police officers
in enforcing the law and closing the sa-
looms on Sunday. Several OF them have
already received hints that il would be
well for them 10 comply with the Law as
il Is the intention OF the town officials TO
see that il is strictly enforced, and that
their licenses will be revoked IL they are
found violating any of its provisions. II
is also understood that the officers intend
10 put stop to the practice OF selling
beer and liquor 10 children who are sent
to the saloons with pals and bottles by
their parents, as the law expressly forbids
the sale OF liquor to minors. III this is
done, the "growler' business will receive
a great set-back and the festive saloon
keeper has this to add to the uneasiness
caused by the Sudnay. closing movement.
As the Sunday and "growler" business
are the two most profitable parts of the
average Valley saloon the enforcement of
the law would cause a great falling off
in the receipts OF most of them and just
at present the saloon keepers lot is not a
happy one, and they are all looking for
ward to next Sunday with fear and tremb
ling.
