SUNDAY CLOSING.
Central Labor Union Endorses Pro-
posed Legislation.

At a meeting of the Central Labor Union
last night 1t placed itself squarciy on rec
ord on the Sunday closing proposition by
adopting the following resolution. which
was offered by Delegate D. F. Manning of
the Retail Clerks Union:
THAT there has been introduced in the
House of Representatives of the United
States a bill Oh. r. No. 10510) to further
protect the first day of the week as a day
of rest in the Districtsof Columbia, which,
according to the usual custom. has been
referred to the committee on the District of
Columbia and the board OF Commissioners;
and
'At the public hearing on said bill held
Thursday, February s. 1906. there were pre-
scented strenuous arguments and oppo-
sition against the Endorsement of this
measure on the grounds that this Sunday
rest was not asked for nor desired BY the
laboring men and women of the District OF
Columbia, but that 1t was, on the con-
trary. purely religious measure introduced
for the sole purpose OF restricting religious
liberty.
'sIt was resolved by the Central Labor
Union of the District of Columbia, con-
sisting of 400 duly accredited delegates of
all colors nationalitfes and religious be-
liefs representing eighty organizations. ag-
gregati ting membership of more than 20. 600
residents of the District of Columbia. that
we heartily indorse II. r. No. 1850, and
urge the honorable Commissioners to ia
best efforts to secure its enactment as a
law.
ALSO that copy of these resolutios. un-
der the seal Of this organization, be for
warded to the Commissioners of the Dis
trict of Columbia.

MAY HAVE LOCAL OPTION.
Bill to Apply to Congress Heights and
Vicinity

Residents of Congress Heights are making
a determined fight against the establish
ment of a wholesale liquor store on Nichols
avenue In that section. The application
was made by Ernest w. Mattingiy. who
has been in the grocery business there for
number of years. The protestants who have
appeared before the excise board In oposi-
ton to his application have expressly
stated that their opposition was against tho
business and not against the man. Col. A.
E. Randle owner OF considerable property
in that section, was among the protestants
who appeared before the excise board yes
terday.
He stated that Mr.. Mattingly is one OF
the best citizens of the section, but the
speaker could not remain quiet and counte-
nance the sale of liquor by him or any
other person Col Randle went on to tell
the board that Congress Heights is a law
abiding community, and he feared a change
might come with the sale OF liquor. He
pointed out that such establishment
might attract an undesirable class OF pa
irons and thought great damage would be
done that section.
Opposition to the granting of the license
also came from the authorities Of St Elz-
abeth's Hospital for the Insane. 1t was
stated that inmates OF the institution who
might be out on parole might visit such an
establishment, buy liquor and then cause
trouble. The members of the board were
shown a copy of bill that was recently
introduced In Congress, which lis intended
to make Congress Heights and vicinity q
local option section. The bill. 1t fs stated,
was prompted by the filing of the appiica-
ton by Mr. Mattfngly.
1t provides that no license shall b
granted for the sale of liquor between the
asylum and the District almshouse or
within one-half mile of the grounds OF
either institution. The passage of the
bill would make it impossible for the
board to license place at or near Con-
gress Heights.
Testimony was heard by the board. and
the case was continued until next FRI
day Ii Is probable that additional pro-
tests will then be heard and that argu-
ments will be made by counsel on both
Sides
