Not only this, but to prevent the sale of liquor at Itke Manawn, Courtland Beach, Krug park and other outlying resorts during the sum mer. Thomas Outlines the Campaign. "I believe." said Elmer E. Thomas, at torney for the Civic Federation, last night, "that It Is the desire of the Civic Federa tlon to have the Sunday closing law en forced throughout Douglas county." Mr. Thomas stated that a movement hod been started In Council Bluffs to compel Sunday dosing of saloons In that city, lie said he did not know what citizens were be hind the agitation, but had been Informed that such was the case. A delegation of Council Bluffs men Is expected to confer with Civic Federation officers about the matter soon. No action has yet been taken by the ex ecutive committee of the federation regard ing the extension of the Slocumb law en forcement to resorts and saloons outside the city limits. Various members have said that the liquor traffic In these places must be looked after. Although the federation has not acted In the matter some discussion hss been had with members of the Board of County Com missioners regarding it. Two Resorts In lown. Lake Manawa and Courtland Beach, two of the largest summer resorts, are In Iowa and unless action la taken ln Council Bluffs and Pottawattamie county to compel prohi bition on Sundays It would be an easy mat ter for thirsty Omaha and South Omaha to satisfy Itself by the expenditure of a fpw cents for street car fare.

To the Editor of The Bee: Permit me to ssy a few words to the Rev. C. C. Clssell. John Dale and Dr. C. F. Clarke, who. The Bee says, signed and Sent the following telegram ' to Governor JMckey yesterday. It reads: .r 1 The Brotherhood of the Hanscom Park Methodist Episcopal church rejoices at the Sunday closing feature achieved this day by the arousal of the normal sentiment of Omaha through the Civic Federation, and we call upon your excellency to use without delay the adequate authority at your com mand for the (Strict enforcement of the Slocumb law as you are In duty bound to do under oath of your office. Now, my dearly beloved men and breth ren, did you mean by this Insulting lec ture upon his "duty" to the chief execu tive of the state that he should order the mayor to enforce the 8locumb law In Omaha "under oath of your (his) offleeT" If this wss your Idea of Governor Mickey's "duty" "under oath of your (his) office." It should be said that Governor Mickey has never taken an oath to do what he has neither the power nor the disposition to do. But you did not mean this. I con cede the fact. You did mean, however, what you lacked the candor and the cour age to say, that the governor should issue an order, "without delay," to the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners, direct ing them to strictly enforce the Slocumb law tn the city of Omaha. I am very glad, venerable and dear breth ren, that you gave me excuse and war rant to respectfully say that, In your bat blind seal, you hav allowed yourselves to be misled by some curbstone lawyer Into the honest belief that the law requires the DOCTORS FOR MEN I Th difference between success and failure in business life Is due In nine out of every ten cases to lack of physical manhood.

Board of Fire and Police Commissioners and enjoins upon It the duty to strictly enforce the Slocumb law In this city In respect to the closing of the saloons on Sunday. If I am right about this, you w ill be surprised and probably very sad, to know that the board has no power to do what they think is their duty to do. It -cannot enforce the Slocumb law. "strictly" or otherwise, and under the decision of Judge Kstelle do you happen to know Ie Estelle? If not you may have lienrd of him In regard to the powers of the police commission. He derided and held that It had no power, no legal authority tn enforce the Slocumb law. Carl Wright, late city attorney, and the present City Attorney Breen, always advise the board against sny attempt to exercise any such power. Judge William D. Mcllugh. long an honored member of tho Board of Fire and Police Commissioners, always held to the opinion snd acted on It. I am not speaking for the police board nor for any member of It but myself Ir making this statement, for I am not speak ing as a member of the police board. An a plain citizen of Omaha. Who for many years edited a "religious" newspaper In this city and said more In Its columns pnd made more public addresses In behalf of sobriety and sgslnst alcoholic evils In those days than any dozen Methodist preachers and deacons ever did, 1 thought It right and proper to kindly admonish my very reverend and noble brethren and slstern that they don't know what they are talking about. GEORGE L. MILLKR. What Will Come Sextf Commenting upon the efforts of Elmer E. Thomas and the Civic Federation as re gards the liquor traffic, a Saloon man said: "It is difficult for me to see Just where the sgttstlon of tha Civic Federation mix ture is going to stop. It will be remem bered that a year ago all that Attorney E. E. Thomas wanted way the closing of the saloons st midnight. This wss con ceded. This year the sams interests appear sgaln. Now they want Sunday closing added to midnight closing. This, too. Is granted. What will be demanded next year? I look for the hostility toward the brewers snd saloons to take the form of raising the annual license, even though It Is now $1,000 a year for each place. "I have noticed that the arguments Mr. Thomas makes for the closing of saloons Bunday may Just as well be applied to closing the saloons all the time. In Other words, they are prohibition arguments, based on prohibition doctrine. Personally I do not think Omaha wants anything of this kind, yet I should like to know what the federation will Insist upon one year from now."
