OF romance developed from the strike

Il seems that Clerk Salmonson had
received a letter from the proprietor

maiden is under legal age. The clerk
refused the license, as 1t is said tho

Sunday Observance League to
Get Into the Field ED Once Once
More.
ANOTHER CAMPAIGN LIKELY e
Secretary Of League Says 4
Didn't Close Saloons Before, and
some8Stil1 Running on Sunday.

Prospects appear bright for another
Sunday observance campaign In Rich
r,cnd very shortly. The officers Of the
Sabbath Observance League refuse In
any way to discuss the plans said to DO
forming, but there are certain dark hints hints
I OF recent meetings and interesting de-.
csions IN the way Of local agitation.
1t Is learned that the league will bend!
every energy to defeat the measure now
pending In the Legislature, reducing the
penalty TOR violation of the Sunday whis-.
key laws. The Rev. w S. campb y
Secretary or the organiza tlon. has visit
cd the General Assembly several times
recently and has had one or two consul lll
itsHons with Judge Mann He inquired
concerning the status Of the measure and
is now preparing to appear before .'l, the the
Senate Committee in osition to the he
proposed bill. \. The league WILL also take axe
other steps to block the passage Tof IT. 4
Radical Change.
The bill in question makes a radical
change in the Mann law in that it re-
moves the Jail imprisonment from n the the
penalty for violation of the Sunday law. Y;
Under the Mann. bill the penalty was a
fine Of from SO to $500 and a jail term4;
II the new measure passes there Will be
no 1ail term. The bill has already been
reported by tho Finance Committee OF
the House. is III 553 4 ts!y a.8l
The League Will contend that the pro;-
posed measure is preposte It Is. It,
Gays, a. pra ctical admission blythe Ewhls-
key men, that i hey wis n to- VI iolate tn
law and will do SO II the penalty isSre-
Guced. The jail imprisonment the league
holds to be absolutely essential. With.
OUT It the law is ineffective, because i. a
So loon keeper can take the risk and pay
the fine II he is caught and still make;
good profit plying his trad de. e
Are Still Open.
Spreading Of the matter yesterday the
Rev. Mr. Campbell said In effect:
..When the league began Its agitation
some time ago, there was no Mann law,
and the punishment was only a fine.
We had a number Of saloon keepers up
ard secured conviction In every case.
But we know wo didn't close single
saloon for good. We have positive in
formation that some OF them are .rnii-;
ming wide open now on Sunday They
don't care about the fine. They can pay
