LIQUOR License Applications.

If. as indicated, there will be fewer
than 900 applications for saloon
licenses in the District for the COM
ing excise year the board will have
much less difficulty than it had year
ago in deciding the cases before it.
Much trouble then ensued from the
surplus of applications. Some scam
dial resulted, and the board was
placed on the defensive before Con-
gress and the public in consequence.
But there is some peril as we'll in the
fling of smaller number of applica-
tions than the number of licenses al
lowed by law. With the limit ex-
ceeded by the applications the board
could select the favored ones from
comparatively large field, and could
presumably eliminate undesirable ap-
plicants. With the maximum not
reached by the applications the board
should be just as careful to see that
no license is unworthilY granted, and
that all the restrictive conditions are
complied with. Indeed, with small
err number of candidates than the
law permits it will be possible for the
board to make the standard even
higher. 1t assuredly should not fol-
low that because less than 900 apply
every candidate is licensed.

Mr.. Bryan's Program.

Mr.. Bryan is at his best-and ex-
ccllent-as rhetorician. He has
lively fancy and wealth OF words.
He entertains with ease. But he is
not content with that. He wants to
instruct as we'll and is thus led into
the realm OF facts and figures. There
he loses himself completely.
For year prior to the summer of
1896 this very interesting man had
dwelt i'll generalties on the subject OF
the country's woes. which were then
numerous and considerable, and his
cloquence resulted that year in his
nomination for President Required
then to prescribe. he offered as cure
the free coinage of silver at 10 to 1.
The people examined the remedy, and
rejected it.
For some time now Mr. Bryan has
been preaching peace. He sees the
day approaching when war will be
no more; and he would prepare us
for that blissful period. Particulars
being required, he is forced into the
realm of figures. and does this sum:
The jingoes are now talking about
spending 5000 600 on the navy and
SI5oooo.Ooo on the army, or $3.50 600
per year getting ready for wars that
ought ever to come. Four hundred
and hNy millions year would

Sunday Shows.

With the rewriting of the police
regulation affecting Sunday enter
tainments the rule becomes more ex-
plicit and clear, and its enforcement
is rendered possible without difficult
~ or confusion. 1t is evident that
public sentiment in the District does
not favor what is known as wide
open" Sunday. Washington does not
desire that the Sabbath day be made
into noisy time of public amuse-
ment. 1t may not be good business
to close the shows and run the town
quietly on that day, but it is undoubt-
eddy morally good for the community.
Apart from any religious considera-
ton the cessation of the ordinary ac
Invites of business and pleasure-mak-
ing business on one day of the week
is wholesome and desirable. 1t is not
necessary for the diversion and
amusement OF any particular class of
people that the shows be open on
Sunday. There is ample opportunity
on other days and other nights for
every one to be entertained, and the
people who participate in the amuse-
ment work, players and their asso-
ciates, deserve their day of rest as
we'll as any other class of workers.
