despite the big bluff put up by the Superior
Liquor Dealers association at recent meet
Ing, when it voted unanimously to lift the lid
on Sunday, Dec. 16, and keep 1t OF.
and, backed with the thought that the city
ordinance regulating the closing of saloons on
sunday was unconstitutional, they prepared to
tight Mayor Linley's policy Of Sunday obsery-
ance However, they reckoned not with their
most, Tor the mayor prepared to arrest every
v1olator Of the closing ordinance, and made a
lasting example Of Henry Conway, who per;
sisted in breaking the provisions Of the ordi-
nance, by having the council revoke his license,
close his saloon and throw Conway into jail
rms, With the strict orders given the police,
had the desired effect upon the remainder of
the saloon gang. Every saloon was closed
promptly at midnight Saturday, and policemen
We're stationed near every saloon Sunday morn
Ing, where strict surveillance was maintained,
with the result That not saloon carried out the
declaration of the association and the lid re-
NAMED on tighter than ever.

for nothing else. He has little thought

involved in such horrors as no civilized

civil war because it is so widespread.
The Baltic provinces on the western bor
