Stir Up Brandon.

A crusade against violations OF the
Sunday law Is being conducted in Brandon
by the Rev. George A Cooke, pastor
of the Methodist Church. AS first stated
in the Free Press, Mr.. Cooke has de-
manded the resignation of Constable
Fletcher for non-enforcement of the law
and he has not let the matter rest
there.
Mr.. Cooke started the campaign with
an Italian fruit stand. After long solicit
tation on the part of the clergyman the
town officials asked the foreigner to
close his place of business on Sunday,
and he did. After he had succeeded IN
his initial step. Mr., Cooke asked the
selectmen to put all the constablcs out
of business and select new ones in their
places, but the reply was made that
these officers were chosen by the people
and the selectmen had no authority to
remove them from office. so the clergy
man wrote each constable and deputy
sheriff letter asking them to resign or
else stand prosecution for non-perform-
ance OF their duties.
| Mr.. Cooke has explained his position
! clearly. He said:
when i requested an Italian fruit
| dealer 10 CIOSe ms business on sunday.
he calmly informed that the author
tiles of the town had allowed him to
do business on Sunday for many years
and that he did not propose to stop un-
less all other places of business were
closed as well. The agitation spread
until the authorities did close this bust
ness ON Sunday, but in a short time the
proprietor resumed Sunday selling.
II consulted Town Grand Juror Frank
williams 10 ascertain whose duty it was
to see that the laws were enforced He
told me 1t was not his duty, but that
the constable should see to the enforce
ment of Sunday laws. then wrote To
Constable Fletcher requesting him TO
serve notice on all offenders against the
Sunday laws of the State, In the town
of Brandon and / stated In this letter
that 1t was no desire Of mine that any
arrests should be made unless necessary
to secure proper observance of the law.
