NO PART IN BALL ELECTION
sunday Observance League Declines
TO BE Party to Novel
Procedure.

-
NEBRASKA CITY, Neb.. July Ito the
Editor of The Bee: On Sunday, July II,
the Argo Base Ball club was a~rreste5 for
playing base bail on Sunday, and on Mon
day evening a called meeting was held at
the Overland theater, at which the follow
ing resolution was adopted:
II is the sense of this meeting that the
innocent and harmless amusement. OF base
ball games should be continued In Nebraska
City on Sundays at any cost.
The following correspondence took place
today between the so-called Business Mems
association and the Sunday Observance
league:
NEBRASKA CITY, Neb., July 1.-THE
Law and order League, Nebraska City,
Neb.: .Gentlemen-There will be an cleo
1902, the object Of which is to determine
whether public sentiment is for or against
place OF Holding said election Will Be in the
vacant building adjoining the Warren. block
on the west. The polls will be open from 8
under the Australian ballot system.
We invite you to cooperate with us In
will appoint one judge and, one cierk.we
to do likewise-and a third Judge to be Sc
lected by the other two.
ciation. JOHN NORDHoUsE,
NEBRASKA CITY, Neb., July i7.-Mr.
John Nordhouse, Committeeman: Dear Sir
Your notice TO the effect that there will
be an election held in this city on Satur-
day, July 10, 1902, to determine whether a
majority of the voters OF Nebraska City
are in favor OF allowing the playing of base
ball games on Sunday, together with your
request hat the Sunday Observance league
appoint a judge or representative to. assist
in conducting such election, is acknowl-
edged.
We have given the matter due considera-
ton and must decline to participate in any
such undertaking or enterprise for the fol-
lowing reasons:
/. No general election can or will be held
in said city on said date.
2. The result of any such alleged or pro-
posed election would be binding on no one,
as II a majority of the voters should de
clare for permitting base ball games on
first day of the Week, commonly called
Sunday, would be just as unlawful with as
without such sanction. The supreme, court
of the United States long ago held that
''the people themselves cannot bargain
away the public morals, the public health
and the public safety"
those proposed in regard to this matter
would make our city the laughing stock OF
law-abiding communities and citizens
throughout the state and nation. It would
not, be looked upon as the righteous DEGREE
of lawful authority, but would be heralded
as a ridiculous attempt to set aside the
law of our state and the Interpretation OF
the Nebraska supreme court by the fiat OF
a voluntary assembly In utter disregard OF
the law. Such methods and such a system
would undermine the more sacred founda-
lions of constitutional government and in.
e~vitably. lead to a reign of terror. The
present law was placed on the statute book
by the supreme legislative power OF this
state. Let every loyal citizen stand by the
law. Very respectfully yours.
President Sunday Observance League.

Iohn Freitas, a little boy, was before
Judge Wilcox this morning charged
with the theft of f.. a. Mott-Smith's
bicycle. The child was quite young
and he said that he had found the bicy-
Gle standing unused by the road side
and had jumped on to take ride. The
court lectured the youth on the folly
of making so free with other peoples
goods and dismissed him.
The case of larceny in the second de-
gree against Tuck Kong did not appear
so serious this morning in Judge VIII
cCX's court, as had been expected. Yes
terday Tuck Kong and Japanese
were arraigned for affray. The Jap
anese claimed that the Chinese had
grabbed a tobacco cutter from him and
ran away with it and that he had chas-
ed after Tuck, and in the struggle to
recover the cutter, they had come to
blows. The case was then nOlle prOss-
ed, and warrant for Tuck issued, who
was charged with larceny. At the eX
animation of Tuck this morning it
was shown that the japanese had
bought some cakes from Tuck and had
failed to pay for them, and that Tuck
had taken the tobacco cutter instead.

continued until tomorrow.
