All business was suspended for several hours, even the questionable businesss of the stock exchange was brought to a standstill until the remains were moved. Old gray-haired men and young children wept bitter tears of remorse when they looked hack on the hard and scornful things they had said of the deceased. Great was the fall thereof!

Existing laws are good enough as far as *iney fto.^untl smiliitf ft- ?otVi 1 before any attempts are made at “advanced legislation." To nut laws inioii the statute ' ^ «<I ifiF.U m/I t « U I 1 n $. C. /11^ »I I ^ the laws we have, and when they have done their perfect work the next step can,and will, he easily taken. We complain that laws are not unforced, but lake no biamc to unraolycs on that account. Weak humanity shirks responsibility and seeks to shift it upon the other fellow. Laws, in the main, are enforced just on a level with public sentiment. It can be said, with truth, that all good citizens want the laws enforced, but they do not, by their actions, say so; and it is too much to expect that officers of the law stand upon a higher level of morality, or of devotion to duty, than

the average citizen.

Many hesitate, from business and prudential considerations, to take a firm stand upon the side of “law and order,” are recreant to their duties as citizens and fathers, guilty of moral cowardice In the face of the enemy, slavishly subservient to the “almighty dollar” and false to their highest interest* and moral ooligations. On tin* other hand the Liquor League stands in open, defiant and organized opposition to the enforcement of the laws, and the officers of the laws, in the attempt to discharge their duties, meet it at every turn, and are made to feel its weight, it* power, it* vengeance, and it is d<*stitiite of mercy as it Is

Incapable of remorse.

The Anti-Liquor League proposes to organise the sentiment that favors the enforcement of the law, and make it a power to the community and a terror to evil-doers; to wield It as a battering ram against the dens of iniquity that blast the morals of our youth: to require of officers tin* faithful discharge of their duties and 8<*e that they do it, and to aid and enoourage them in their efforts to enforce the law.
