ST PAUL, MINI, May 7.-Replying
TO the attacks of several leading minis
tiers. Mayor Smith, who has been twelve
years at the head of the city govern
ment and served through six admins
trations, declared that a modern city
cannot be run on the Sunday school
plan.

attacks ever resulted in anything Min

how to manage practical affairs of city

knowledge that it is impossible to en-
force the measures. To engage in the
social evil is a crime Under our laws

poses can be sent to States prison.
Not a Four Flush Law.
The man who framed that law knew
it would never be used, and it has not
been You cannot prevent that social
evil It's too widespread. The best you
can do is to regulate it after fashion.
These ministers talk about the liquor
traffic and about gambling as if they
really knew something about it. They
howl for the instant suppression of such
evils. Now. TO be frank, Americans want
these evils and won't stand for suppress
sion.
The administration that adopts the
Sunday school idea and tries to prohibit
such thing; is doomed. II viii be snow
