Law S Requirements.

Under the provisions of the law owners
OF saloons are required TO keep their
places exposed to full view Sundays and
inauguration days, when sales are pro-
hibited, the law stating that the interior
of every barroom shall at all times when
selling is prohibited be exposed to full
view from the street, without obstruc-
ton by screens, blinds, curtains. stained
glass, bottles. boxes, signs or other ma
terial, except in the case of clubs IL
censed under this section and hotels
having only an interior barrcom, which
shall he exposed 10 full view from the
corridors or pasSageways ieauin@ to the
entrance or entrances to such barroom.
Soon after midnight the police in the
business district were on the alert. They
examined the barroom premises to make
certain that late patrons of the places
were not being served, and that the law
requiring bars to be exposed TO full view
was being complied with. So far is
| known not single violation was dis
covered.
Following instructions given them sew
eral days ago by Maj. Sylvester, chief of
police. the police are seeing TO the en-
forceinent OF the provision of the excise
law which makes it an offense to sell or
furnish liquor TO minors, and the saloon
owners are also taking every precaution
against even technical violation of that
section.
Posted in many Of the drinking places
last night was a sign with the heading
Warning TO Minors in red ink, the
extract from the law as to what is ex-
pected of minors following 1t reads:
THAT any minor who falsely rep
resents his age for the purpose of pro-
curing Intoxicating liquors shall he deem
cd guilty of a msdemeanor, and be fined
for each offense not more than 500 and
in default in the payment of such fine
shall be imprisoned in the reformatory
or workhouse of said District not ex-
ceedins thirty days"
People in the saloon business have
made up their minds to live up to the
very letter of the law relating TO the sale
in the saloon business. and think il is
| a good thing that the law throws some OF
the responsibility upon the party who
tries To impose upon the dealer.
Under the old liquor law il was neces-
sary 10 establish that licensed dealer
! knowingly disposed OF liquor to d minor
but under the new law it is an entirely
different proposition. The law says that
under the license issued. in accordance
with this section no intoxicating liquors
shall be sold. given away, or in any way
way disposed of to any minor. intoxicat ted
person, or habitual drunkard, and igno-
rance of the age of any such minor shall
not be defense to any action Instituted
under this section.

Shortly after the law was enacted the
claim was made that Saloonkeepers would
have the right TO open their places of
business at l. o'clock Sunday night and
remain open one hour. The claim was
later disputed, and the corporation coun-
sci stated that saloonkeepers had no
such right.
Il think no saloonkeeper has the slight
est idea OF trifling with the law in such
a way, said the proprietor OF large sa-
loon last night, and il he did he would
not be paid for his trouble. Saioonkeep-
ers have long enough hours now and
none of them is anxious to lengthen them
Indeed he added, even if the sa-

Police reports indicate that only a
small number of the saloons are being
kept open after midnight.
MANY persons who would visit saloons
and Sarce after midnight said a deal

calculated TO cause trouble. Persons
from out-of-town resorts who get home
