California Legislature Rejects Sunday-Law Measures

THE California Legislature has adjourned without passing any Sunday-law measures, although strenuous efforts were put forth to have such a measure placed upon the statute books of this state. However, four good measures dealing with the liquor traffic were passed: 1. For the abatement of “blind tigers”; 2. Prohibiting the sale of liquor adjacent to schoolhouses; 3. Making the possession of an internal revenue receipt prima facie evidence of guilt in certain “dry” territory; 4. Prohibiting the sale of liquor to drunkards or Indians. And may the good fight against the evil of intemperance keep up with ever increasing vigor.
