ferry facilities for all Alexandrlans'
white and LACK, who have any nell
nation 70 defy the laws Of the city
and state.
II seems to be question with some
whether or not the city has Jursdic-
ton in the case of this open defiance
of law, but others can see no reason
whv the authorities could not make a
movement towarls obiiterating this
evesore. The fact that the ark from
which liquors are dispensed is in the
river does rot Seem to be an impaSsa-
BILE barrier. The floating salon is own
ed in Alexandria, is stocked in Alex
andria and the owners cater to Alex
andrians and late in the evening bring
the ark back to Alexandria.
LAST Sunday afternoon while seve-
raj young ladies'. of this city were
seated near the end of Jones's Point
enjoying what little breeze was stir
ring several drunkei, negroes were
landed from this ark near where the
