The Maryland legislature has passed the bill
restricting individual shipments Of liquor to the
counties on the eastern shore to one gallon a
month. and the moral forces of the country
chalk up another victory. 1t may be a little
hard for the eastern shoreman to get along on
this limited supply. but 1t is way of letting
him down easy. for 1t will not be great while
before he will be compelled to forego his liba

THE sEVEN-DAY DAILY.

While we are all one people, under one flag
and closely connected by ties of blood that there
is between the moral viewpoints Of purltanical
New Englanders and Southerners is stressed by
an interesting editorial utterance of the Hart
ford Courant.
Says the Conrdnt:
People hereabouts, who seriously protest
against the Sunday edition Of The Courant
should take note Of the sentiment In Raleigh n
q. the same subject only from a different
point of View.
ut seems that Secretary Josephus Daniels
who owns the Raleigh News and Observer has
decided 10 pubiish-twhat? p A Sunday edition?
o. It's a Monday edition, That's what
ries the good people of Raleigh. They have had
a Sunday edition of their paper right along and
that all right But, when IL comes to pub
fishing Mondays, that means making people
work Sundays and that is all wrong.
"Hereabouts good people have always taken
for granted their Monday morning 'Courant.
but, when edition began coming out Sunday
mornings, then they thought sacrilege In
the air In fact Brother Daniels has hitherto
been to observing Sunday than have the
publishers of The Courant.' There's a lot more
Sunday work on the Monday 'Courant' than on
that Of Sunday itself"
1t is true, az our New England contemporary
observes. that good people in both cases get ex-
CiteH unnecessarily.
80 long things happen. intelligent people
Will want to know about them. and the
papers tell them. The moral objections to the
Sunday 'Courant have about had their day. OBJ
iectors read the paper and find 1t Interesting in
forming. and beneficial, and realize that 1t IS
good thing. Similarly the good people of
Raleigh may stand off for a while. but they will
soon realize that morning paper Is short of its
opportunity and OF it's duty to it's readers unless
1t appears many mornings in week as there
are mornings
The world keeps moving and will continue to
move until time shall be more and the people
must be kept abreast Of the times To be with
out the record of its happenings even for one
day leaves gap that cannot be bridged and 1t
is the demand of the people that there shall be
no gaps that has led to the Monday paper. The
South has been slower in awakening to this
necessity. but IL Is awakening. In Virginia there
are now three Monday morning dailes; in
North Carolina four; in South Carolina two; in
Georgia four and in Florida one. Other morning
dalies will be forced into the seven-day issue
movement by one until what Is now CON-
larative innovation In the South will be recog
nized necessity.
