LABoRiNG MEN KEEP
SALOONS OPEN SUNDAYS
Denver Republican.

Denver Republican
Frankly admitting that they did not
want TO see the saloons of Denver
closed Sunday, the members of the
Trades and Labor assembly Yesterday
declined to pass resolution indors-
ing the announced intention of Sheriff
Alexander Nisbet to give the bartend
ers OF the city slxdsy working week
by strictly enforcing the Sunday.clos-
ing law.
why should we be SO inconsistent
as to advocate the closing of saloons
ON Sunday. when II is wo that keep
them OPEN" demanded Jesse n. Vet
ter of the Machinlsts' union. IF the
members of organized labor wanted
the saloons closed Sundays all they
would have to do would bs TO stay
away from them, and they'd close,
all right"
Yes, and furthermore, II We en-.
courage the sheriff to close the sa.
looms Sundays, he may take 1t into
his head to enforce the other Sunday
laws as we'll" added C. J. Moorehouse,
of the Cigarmakers union. Maybe
some of you don't know that It is
against the law to keep theaters open
or to have ball games Sundays. Or to
<ss',Ta great many other things We are
aeenetomed to doing that day 7 don't
believe We ought to indorse that reso-
luton"
ANel Larson, representing the Bar.
tenders union, was most emphatic In
his statement of why the bartenders
didn't want to see the saloons shut
their doors Sunday.
"A great many saloons don't any
more than make expenses during the
weeks" he explained, "and the Sun
day trade Is what brings them their
velvet As long as the saloons are
running Sundays they will hire more
bartenders and that's Just so much the
better for us. We want n six-day
working week. all right, but we don't
want TO be compelled to make Sunday
our day off. We didn't ask the sher-
iff to let us off Sundays and we have
not appealed TO this organization yet
with regard to six-day week"
