ions of a few outstanding men
who do appreciate it's Importance
in the life of our people:
P. j. Mas, general organizer
of the American Federation. of
Labor, says: "Seven days toll,
year in and year out, means that
man is nothing but a slave to
those who are able to buy him.
Close every place Of business,
even the confectionery, ice cream
soda water and other shops, and
bank the fires in the furnaces;
let the hum of machinery cease,
and give every man a chance to
recuperate strength and improve
his mind. If mans greed for gain
is to prevail over natural and
physical laws, the time will come
when labor on every day of the
week will be the rule for the ma
jority, and rest the privilege of
the favored few"
Ralph Waldo Emerson said al
most one hundred years ago:
"The Bible is an engine of edu-
cation of the first power. It does
more than all other books. 1t is
an index everywhere of light all
over the world. Where the Book
is found and honored, there is
light. Where it is not found,
tn ere is darkness' The Sabbath
does more for education than all
books and schools and institu.
tons besides united. 1t is one
seventh of the week. 1t is one
seventh Of the year. 1t is one.
seventh of life. The child that
has lived in the light of no other
opportunity at seven years has
had one year of education. The
man at three score and ten has
had ten years Of religious educa-
tion."
Justice Mclean, of the Su-
preme Court of the United States,
said: "Where there is no Chris
tian Sabbath there is no Chris
tan morality, and without this
free institutions cannot long be
maintained"
Mark Hopkins declares that
there has been no instance of a
people that kept the Sabbath that
has not been free people.
Blackstone, one of the great
est of all lawyers, warns us:
"The proclamation of the Sabbath
is usually followed by flood of
immortality"

about "blue laws" End the effort
of Christian people to force their

use the day of rest and worship

CRAIG PLANS BILL
FOR CITY TO TAKE
OVER ALL CAR LINES
Comptroller Says Many of the
Manhattan Surface Lines
Could Be Scrapped.
ATTACKS MILLER PLAN.
Believes Abrogation of Scent
Fare Clause in Subway Dual
Contract Is Illegal.

Comptroller Craig announced to-
day at the protest meeting in City
Hall against Gov. Miller's traction
programme that he proposes pre-
pairing a bill providing for the taking
away from private ownership Of all
the traction lines in this city, includ-
ing the subways, elevated and sur
face lines. In his opinion many OF
the surface lines, particularly those
in Manhattan operating under long
term exorbitant leases, should be
scrapped The taking over Of the
traction lines would be accomplished
by the exercising of the city's power
Of eminent domain, the Comptroller
contends.
Comptroller Craig believes Gov.
Millr's plan, which seeks to Ibro-
gate the scent fare clause in the
dual subway contracts, is unconsti-
tutlonal. Replying to a question Of
senator James j. Walker, Chairman
OF the meeting, called by the Demo-
cratic legislators of New York City
at which tho Comptroller spoke,
Comptroller Craig stated with en-
phass that he did not think tho
Governor himself believed his plan
\ would pass the test in court.
\ In summing up the municipal
ownership bill, Mr.. Craig said: 1T
authorizes the termination of all pri-
=. vate operation of traction lines with
n the City of New York. Such a
oil would permit the termination of
existing opera ting contracts 50 far
as they regard the subways and may
make provision for the payment to
any security holders Of any money
Of theirs that has gone into the
properties and in which the oity has
IN that way received benefit.
so far as the surface lines are con-
cerned, and particularly those holding
perpetual franchises under Legislative
grants, the city should have the right
10 terminate the operation Of those
lines because they are obsolete, such
as the Broadway surface line of Man
haitian. These lines have become OBJ
solete because they are paralleled un-
derneath by the rapid transit lines
which provide local and express ser
4 vice for practically the entire length
4 Of the surface lines.
upon the determination that these
lines no longer serve any useful pur-
pose the city should be- empowered
to compel the removal Of their tracks

WALSH WAS KILLED
BY RIVAL GANG Of
BOOTLEG BANDITS
Mystery of Raid That Cost
Two Lives Believed to Be
Cleared Up by Police.
ECKERT CASE UNLINKED.
Headquarters Detective Senft
Finds No Connection With
Staten Island Murder.

The police Of Newark and New
Brunswick declared this afternoon
that they had cleared the mystery
from the killing Of Leo Salamandra
by bootleg bandits at Kingston, y.
j., last Thursday night and the sub
sequent murder OF Frank Walsh, one
of the bandit leaders.
The murderers were in, two auto
mobile accidents due to reckless driY-
ing in the hours following the mur-
der. One was near New Brunswick,
where they abandoned their own
Cadillac automobile, driving to the
outskirts OF Newark with a mlllman.
A few hours later they ran an Essex
car into a railway crossing gate in
Newark and abandoned it. They
were 50 injured in the two accidents
thai the police have been able TO
trace them. It is regarded as certain
they will be arrested by midnight
The story Of the Trenton taIbcab
driver, William Palmer, who WAS
hired by a man in Trenton early
Thursday evening and kept waiting
near Salamandra's place for an hour
under orders to follow the whiskey
truck wherever 1t went, has been vcri-
fled by stephen Genese, another
taxicab driver who relieved Palmer
from his job after an hours waiting,
Genese told the police he followed
the truck until it was near the scene
of the hold-up, and then his passen-
ger told him to go ahead and make for
the Now Brunswick Post Office. His
passenger alighted there and went
into a restaurant. 1t has been learned
that he telephoned from the restau-
rant to a cafe in Newark OF which
one Of of the alleged occupants Of the
car was the manager. The owner Of
the car in which Walsh went out on
his foray for the Salamandra whiskey
is alleged to he his brother.
The police are now satisfied that
the taxicaD passenger was a scout
for a second band Of robbers who
knew of Walsh's expedition and
planned successfully to rob the ban
dts. They believe that the second
band had an aocomplice with Walsh
and that Walsh believed his mur-
derers to be his friends, and this
would explain the ease with which
he was shct down by revolver held
close to his head.
