LIQUOR LAW EFFECTIVE.

The conclusion of City Attorney H
j. Dininny, that the new State liquor
law goes into effect on May 10th. and
that 1T supersedes all laws and ordi'
dances now in effect, can be accepted
confidently as the true legal construc
tion as to that statute Mr.. Dininny
does not make any suggestion of resist.
ance to the law as passed On the
contrary, he advises complete acquies
ccnce therein, and the repeal of the
ordinances of the city on tho liquor
question, so as to avoid all possible
chance of conflict in any respect in the
enforcement of the law, That enforce
ment is taken out of the hands of the
city authorities by the statute, and
is given in charge TO the State officers
and TO the courts. The City Council
may fix the amount of the license; that
is all that the council can do The
courts do the rest, and the State Off.
cals have charge of the enforcement
of the law.
We assume the soundness of the
course and conclusion OF City Attorney
Dininny in all this, and it seems to us
that. in view of this, the council would
do well to agree to his suggestions. The
suit which the liquor interests are said
to contemplate TO test the validity of
the law, has nothing ut all to do with
the City Attorneys propositions. In
fact. that suit would be in direct op-
position to the position which lie takes
that the law is valid and must be the
supreme guide on the liquor question; I;
and as the law takes the liquor ques-
tion out of the municipal control, save
only that the council is to fix the
amount of the license fee. there would
appear really TO he little else for the
city to do than TO step down and out,
as the law requires.

STONE AND THE SENATE.

Senator Stone of Missouri was as in
discreet as he was outspoken in his
public speech in the Senate on Thurs.
day in reference to Mexican affairs. He
seemed to take it for granted that the
concentration of American troops on the
Mexican border was for hostile pur
poses against Mexico. and he stood
by authorizing the President to pro-
ceed in aggressive war. 1t was Justly
said by his fellow Senators that a
speech like that should not have been
delivered at all: but, if delivered, that
it should have been behind the veil of
an executive session. This is doubtless
true, and therein was Senator Stone s
indiscretion.
II is probable, however. that what.
ever sort of ofense Senator Stone g
ever resentment his utteranccs might
Justify, were forcstalled by the at.
titude Of other Senators. both Republi-
can and Democratic, IN their dcpreca-
tion Of Senator Stone remarks
Democratic Senators from the South
united with Republican Senators from
the North in censuring Senator Stone
for the delivery of that speech; and
they made il plain that the temper of
the Senate was decidedly with them

States Senate is altogether friendly to.
ward Mexico, and has no disposition
at all to interfere in the Internal af-
fairs of that country, Nor does the
Senate consider that there has been
sufficient cause for any pronounced
statement or declaration with respect to

can citizens and their property to
call for any immediate steps on the
part of this government. The Senators
were practically united upon this point.

FINE WORK OF THE POLICE.

The police force of Salt Lake City
deserve tho highest credit for un
earthing and breaking up the gang of
daylight robbers that has been a me
naco and afflictIon TO the people of this
city for some time past. The offenders
were found after diligcnt search, and
were arrested at the end OF a fierce
fight. They have confessed. and doubt.
less others that have been affiliated with
them will soon either be in the tolls or
must flee from the city.
That one of the policemen was
wounded by a pistol shot in the fight
proves its ficrceness. and establishes the
undaunted courage of the police Off
cials. The whole episode was wonder
fully good work on their part.
The number of robberies committed
by this gang and principally as sup.
posed by the chief burglar, A. j. Ham
mond, was gwen in detail in yesterday
morning s Tribune. and the values
stolen were summarized, The finding
of stolen goods amounting to $500, re-
covered Immediately in the den of the
gang. was a substantial recovery to
those who had been robbed.
Chief Barlow took prominent hand,
both in the search for the robbers and
in the fight in which they were sub
dued. The whole matter is much to his
credit personally, and is distinctly cred
liable to the Salt Lake police force as
q whole.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1911-04-22

to the saline lands, and we think that
the construction of the sentence is
fairly 10 he considered as extending
the grant in place of restricting it.
The Supreme Court Of the United
States now has this matter under ar
gnment and consjderat ation. If, unfor.
tunately. it should hold that the word
including" is restrictive in place OF
expansive, then both the State and the
University would he deprived of I'M.
mense tracts Of land otherwise claimed.
For the saline lands in Utah arc many
times more than the one hundred and
ten thousand acres Of this additional
grant. We are encouraged to think
that the court will Nconstrue the word
''Including' as expansive rather than
restrictive, because that has usually
been the construction of the court on
all questions of this kind as arising be-
tween the States and the general gov
eminent, and so we indulge the lively
hope that the additional. grant of one
hundred and ten thousand acres for
the university Will be held by the Su.
preme Court to be a grant in and of
itself, and the saline lands of the State
a further grant that will cover all the
distinctively saline land in the State.
The word "including'' might also
on the restrictive construction have a
very important effect upon the agri-
cultural college land grant, In fact
1T would be impossible to give effect
to the two hundred thousand acres
granted TO the agricultural college, If
the word "'including' were held TO
restrict the grant to one hundred and
ten thousand acres expressed prior TO
the use Of that word, So that on this
account also we conclude that the word
"including' does not shut the univer-
sity off from the grant Of saline lands,
and much loss can it affect the agri.
cultural college grant. If it were held
to be restrictive, it would be impossi.
bic TO give the Agricultural College
the two hundred thousand acre grant
ten thousand acres granted immcdi-
ately preceding the word "including.'
The restrictive construction would
therefore appear to be impossible as aP-
piled to the sentence as whole, and
we thus feel all the moro reassured on
the point that the court will construe
the word "incIuding" in the cxpan-
siye rather than in the restrictive
sense; so that there ought to he moth
ing to fear from the final decision of
the Supreme Court on this question.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1911-04-22

An advanced literary and political
club in the East, discussing the proper
attitude of the United States toward
Mexico, decided unanimously that this
Government should stop all flibuster-
ing, protect our own citizens, and hold
itself in readiness to act with vigor in
any case wherever the welfare of the
United States is concerned. And then,
with equal unanlmity, it was concluded
that the action Of President Taft in
sending troops to the border was not
justified How all the things demanded
could be done without the troops at
hand to do them. was not explained.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1911-04-22

The republican government In Portu-
gal seems to be afraid to hold an 'elec.
ton. First setting the date for a
parliamentary election in January last,
then moving it forward from fort
night TO a month AT time, that cleo

meantime the monarchists rejoice,
expecting to have Manuel back on the
throne before the election is actually
held. And the pay of the boy king, al
$4,000 a month. goes right on, without
even the stipulation that he mustn Y
