EXACT OPINIONS

or Rev. Dr. Parlshurst Given in q Letter to Rev. Dr. Hoyey, Formerly of New Haven.
 The Newburyport, Mass, Herald says: ...
 In view of local discussion as to the views of the Ieformer, Dr Parlqhurst, concerning the partial opening of sa- looms on Sunday for the sale of light beverages, pr, Hovey wrote a letter of inquiry, to which the following answer came:
 Rev H. c, Hovey, D, D., Newburyport,
 Mass.
 Dear Sir-In reply to your note of the 20th instant the following states con cisely my views upon the excise ques- tion:
 I do not think that hotels and clubs frequented by the wealthy classes should be allowed to sell ale, beer and light wines on Sunday, and the same privilege not be allowed to the restau- rants frequented by the poorer classes. The privilege should be allowed to both or denied to both
 I am not a believer in saloons eith CT for Sunday or any other day in the week, and would sustain any excise measure, however rigid, provided there is furnished the means adequate to it's enforcement. But unenforced laws 1 am tired of. They are essentially de- | moralizing. We have had them in this city for many years and that explains our debased condition. I will encour- age any legislation that can be enforc- | ed, no matter how eXacting, but Will not encourage any legislation that the police have not the power to enforce or that the community or the state will not back them up in enforcing. An i'm perfect law perfectly executed does more for the moral restraint and edu- cation of people than a perfect law im- | perfectly executed The finer the law the worse off we are if that law is prac- | tically a dead lcter We have had in this city for great while a law against open Sunday saloons, obut we have for a great while had open Sunday saloons and we have them now, And the long CT this process continues the less law comes to signify and the less power the rank and file of people, men, women and children, have to appreciate the d g. | tinction between that which is legal and that which is illegal.
 Yours very truly c. H. PARKHURST. | No 133 East Thirty-fifth street, New York city.

Three Sunday Raids.

Three Sunday raids by the police were unsuccessful. An attempt was made to catch Thomas F. McKeon, who keeps a saloon on the corner Of Oak and Orchard streets. The police drove there in a hack. Nobody was found on the premises.
 The saloons of John F. Shannahan and John c. Colleen, both of which are on the corner of Blatehley avenue and Clay street, were surrounded by police. Nobody was found in either Of these saloons, and the police made their re ports, disappointed and disgusted at their failures.

their marriage SO many weeks ago.
