Tho sunday Law.

New Orleans has been struck
with q sudden wave Of Seform.
For wears the Sunday law tad been
openly violated in our. metropolis.
But now the old city every week
assumes the arr of New England
town ON Sunday. Those who are
not we'll inclined towards blue laws
must HE to Bucktown or Hngan's
Alley to quench their thirst, where
conditions are such AS 10 satisfy the
most Jealous of all who have ever
quaffed bumper.
We thought the change was due
to New O,l-ans' good Mayor, Paul
CapdevieIIe. and were prepared to
add our humble tribute to the
deserved pr.ise which he has lately
been SO iavishly receiving from the
press. Judging from the following
utterance attributed to the mayor,
we are evidently mistaken. The
mayor is reported to have said:
eff the Sunday law were strictly en-
forced. as some persons would wish to have,
this city would not be prosperous, for no
one would want to live in tit would be
worse than the New England cities in the
days the blue laws were in vogue and en-
forced. Street cars would be prevented
from running II some persons could prevent
them; reading newspapers and any books
except sermons would be tabooed in fact
the city would put a sombre hue and as
sumo a truly Puritanlcal appearance. The
wishes of the people must be deferred to-
Mr.. Capdevielle is undoubtedly
firm and frank in his opinions. 1t
is refreshing to hear such an out
spoken and fearless expression of
an officers ideas, but we believe he
is wrong. The Sunday law is by
no means a dead letter. A large
part Of our population favor it's en-
forccment. and we believe it is the
plain duty of our law officers to en-
force its observance. We're it an
effete enactment, repugnant to all,
it would be folly to see that it were
obeyed, but it Is law recently
passed, aud an officer is doing his
simple duty in enforcing it,
We have no predictions for the
longfaced Sabbath as the II 4rIe-
gum dubs it and a slightly damp
Sunday is sometimes quite an &C
comodation, there being n" Buck
town annex to Lafayette, but no
one in our midst will at any time
condemn our officers for doing their
duty.
