TO ENFORCE BLUE LAW.
Portland (Ore.) Authorities Attempt to
Keep All Shops Closed on
Sunday.

PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. 28.-Fifty
store and shopkeepers, representing
practically every class of business ex
cepting saloons, were placed under ar
rest yesterday in this city in an effort
to put into effect blue law which has
been resting undisturbed on the statute
books of the state since it was enacted,
some fifty years ago. No attempt was
made, and it is understood none will be
made to enforse actual closing of stores
until the constitutionality of the law is
tested.

An extract from a letter written by
Speaker Cannon to Col John n. Taylor
of the Knowles, Taylor 4 Knowles Pot
terry Company at East Liverpool Ohio,
was published in the Washington Post
on April D. as follows:
II am satisfied there will be no tariff
