THE SUNDAY HOLD.UP,

When Senator Smith asked "If you
are going to make a blue law, why not
make it good and blue?' he struck the
keynote of the Sunday-law situation.
There is manifestly not only inconsis-
tency, but an ulterior design, in the
bill which passed the Senate and which
closes all forms of amusement, includ
ing baseball, except the going to vari
Gus Sunday resorts. At these resorts
various forms of amusement are of.
fered, and the bill undoubtedly will be
vastly profitable to these places of
recreation AS such. it is liable to at
tack as class legislation, for there is no
reason why amusement resorts should
be opened on Sunday if the compare
lively innocent theaters and show places
must be closed.
Judge Powers very forcibly shows the
damage that this bill would immediate.

head by the Sullivan -Considine enter

100000 to $l50,000 on Main street be-
tween Brigham and First South streets.
The Judge, who is the local representa-.
tive Of that company, says rightly tina.

The total amount carried in the ap-

biennial period; the estimated revenue
is $2,05S.000; the deficit is $l36, ,037l9.
This is by no means serious; and with

would not impose any hardships. If
further. the counties were required to
pay their own District Court expenses,
the balance would be turned, and
would appear on the right side of tho
ledger. Other places where economy
might fairly come in will appear in n
close examination Of the items in the
bill
The trouble with the bill is that It
is reported so late in the session that
the legislators find it impossible to
give it that close analysis and detailed
scrutiny which it requires. But doubt
less we shall get through after
fashion. in the happy lucky style of

take is about to bc urged upon the
Government under the guisc OF
economy and reform: that in fact,
there would be neither economy nor re
form in it, but that a vast National
peril would he introduced, which
would cost the Government millions
of dollars in the way of chasing down
counterfeitcrs, and would result in
large losses to the people by reason
Of the ease with which countcrfciters
could circulate their bogus money. Mr..
Hayes calls upon Congress To exercise
extreme care in this matter, and not to
make any change until those who are
best verscd in the printing Of the
Government issues are heard from, and
until the business interests Of the coun.
try are fully warned OF the peril
which the proposition would bring
upon them. This, too. seems 10 be
entirely reasonable, and The Tribune

decision as related to the laws as they
now exist. What sense is there, then, in
passing such a bill as this Senate giant
liquor bill, which is vastly complicated,
immensely long, and which it would
take years of litigation for the courts
to determine its mingled meaning, TO
reach a position which we, in fact,
now occupy? There is absolutely no
argument to use in favor of this bill.
No one pretcnds to give any reason of
the least weight in support of it,
But for political reasons it is urged
that the Republican State platform
promising liquor legislation must be ad-
hered to; yet no one seems to know
what legislation was promised. Some
say one thing, some another, but the
people of the State at large are not in
terestcd in carrying out any partisan
platform promises. majority of the
voters Of the State voted against the
Republican ticket; so that the people of
the State are not for that platform.
When TO this is added the fact that the
platform is so vague. indefinite, and
contradictory that no two persons could
agree upon what it means, even the
political argument that legislation must
be had to carry out q political promise
altogether fails There is. then. no
reason whatever left for the enactment
Of this bill, which is sure to be trou-
ble-brecder and to unsett!e this Ques'
tion for years to come, to make bitter
antagonisms in communities throughout
this State, and 70 be costly beyond
measure and troublemaker beyond
comparison. We already have what is
aimed at; so why attempt to get the
same thing in another way!
And now will the Governor sign itl
