While this was a disappointment to the school children It was doubtles a pleasure to Adams people to have them there.

That is the part of the legislature. All laws are to be enforced, the 'blue laws' with the others." The petitions for writs of habeas corpus presented by John Ryan and Jacob Cald well were heard by Judge Troup and denied by him. Writs of this sort are not granted because of error In a lower court, but on the ground that the lower court did not have Jurisdiction. Chief of Police Donahue says that when he has received official notification of the finding of the supreme court and has been ordered by higher authority so to do, he will close up all places of business In tha city of Omaha, even though a much larger force Is necessary. "The laws are to he enforced, whether the people like them or not," said the chief, "and If I am ordered to enforce them I will do so to the best of my abil ity." Sheriff Bralley said ho would see to the carrying out of the law In the country towns and villages where It has been vio lated "I do not believe In any religious law," said L. B. Johnson, president of the coun cil and acting mayor in the absence of Mayor Dahlman, "and I look on these 'blue laws' as religious measures. You keep Sunday as the Sabbath day, I keep Saturday as that day. If tills law were to be enforced I believe It ought to be en forced on Saturday, the seventh day, when the scriptures say we shall rest and keep holy. I am not in favor of enforcing this law."
