were also ably assisted by Mr.. +. w.

The battle opened by rousing
mass-meeting in Grandy, April 80, led
by Mr. Erick Beckman, prominent
merchant of that place. The church
building in which the meeting was
held was crowded to the doors. A
large party from Cambridge was pres

laws. including the liquor laws, In
spite of any contrary provision OF city
charters and ordinances. The case
came from st. Cloud where Mayor
Robinson, before whom complaint was
made of the sale of liquor on Sunday,
refused to enforce the law prohibiting
the same. Legal proceedings were
instituted to oust him from Office for
neglect of duty. He demurred to the
complaint, denying the authority OF
the attorney general, to whom COM
plant was made and who brought the
proceedings. Mayor Robinson held
that authority to remove him from
office lay only with the council. The
enforcement of the liquor laws and
the bringing of prosecutions under
them. he contended, rested with the
county attorney.
The st. Paul police commission lost
no time in catching onto the meaning
of this decision. It appeared In the
meeting of the commission was called
for Saturday forenoon and unanimous
action was taken to close the Sunday
saloon thereafter. Therein the COM
mission showed it's wisdom, for into
Saturday forenoon's mail had gone an
invitation by the Ramsey County Fro
hibition Committee to Prohibitionists
and other good citizens to meet on
Tuesday evening to consider, among
other things, steps looking toward the
same end.

st. Paul were brought in. On Mon
day morning there were only % new
cases of all kinds before the police
court as against 3S the Monday be-
fore and 72 two weeks before.
The dailies take the situation vari-
ously. The st. Paul Dispatch makes
silly protest against comforting so
much power upon the attorney gen.
eral in opposition in some cases to
the public will It alleges the notor1-
GUS failure of liquor laws where not
sustained by public opinion. One can
hardly help inquiring whether it Is
public opinion at St. Cloud which will
now clap on the lid or the wise de-
cision of the supreme court and the
official action of a fearless attorney
general.
The Minneapolis Tribune does not
see how any court could have reached
any other conclusion and thinks the
decision demonstrates the ease with
which new laws can be enforced II
people only take the trouble. This
sounds very much like what Proh1Dl-
tionists have been saying for some
decades past. The Tribune also de-
clares that this method might have
been pursued at any time heretofore
and that it is superior to sensational
political campaigns" which some pre-
| fer to make "for the election of may
ors who would enforce the laws with
out compulsiOn." This, Of course, is
stab at Mayor Jones' campaign and
a sort of a defense of the Tribune's
shameful part in that contest.

The saloon element has again
crossed swords with the temperance
people of Isanti county and gone
down ingloriously to defeat.
The month just passed has seen
desperate attempt by the saloon
keepers and the breweries which
stand behind them to gain foot
hold in this county from which 1t
would have been very difficult II not
impossible to dislodge them. They
petitioned the county commissioners
to grant them license for saloon
at Grandy, a small town five miles
north of Cambridge, the no-license
county seat. The report was current
that they had secured at least three

Things are coming our way fast.
The last evidence of this fact 1--WE

by the state supreme court which, on
the 7th inst, handed down decision
which claps the lid on every munich
pality in the state, whether public
sentiment approves or disapproves.
The laws of the state regarding the
saloon must be obeyed. For failure
to enforce them or refusal to prose

of the five county commissioners con-
sent to such license, and that they
therefore felt sure of victory.
This report, however, spurred the
temperance people on to battle with
such good result that when the COM
missioners met on the 18th of May to
vote on the question of granting or
not granting this license, all of the
board, without exception, voted
against the proposition, thereby put
ting the enemy to rout.
The effort of the saloonkeepers to
establish themselves somewhere In
the vicinity of Cambridge was made,
without doubt, simply in spite, be-
cause of the defeat they sustained In
the Spring election when the village
went dry by a majority Of three. They
first tried to locate just beyond the
village boundary line by negotiating
for an acre of land from farmer, but
when the owner of the land heard
that it was the intention Of the buyers
| to use his property as a site for
saloon building and beer garden he
called the deal off. Casting about
| for another place where they could
pursue the misunderstanding business,
thew decided on Grandy which is not
an incorporated village and therefore
under the Jurisdiction of the county
commissioners. They secured an op-
tion on a store building centrally To-
Gated in the town and filed petition
with the county auditor asking to be
granted license for selling intoxicat-
ing liquors.
| When the Grandy people became
aware of the saloonkeepers' tnten-
tion. they did not seem to take very
kindly to the idea. Instead OF stand
ing ready to welcome them with open
arms, they, in fact, began to protest
against their coming and to protest
so loudly that it was heard over the
whole county.
Plans for campaign were laid with
Mr.. J. w. Arnold, the colored lecturer
, from Anoka, who travels in the ser
