Attest: Benjamin H. Hatkis,
Clerk of Select Council.
Aa daring the frequent visits to this olUce by
members of your bodies no allusion, direct or re
mote, had been made by any of them to thlt reso
lution, nor any Intimation been given that there
existed or was alleged to exist any cause for com
plaint in the matters to which It referred; and as
on Its passage through Councils it provoked no
comment, 1 presume It was not in'ended nor sap
rosed to express anything unusual or important.
Ooneidertng the kind and friendly relations 1 have
striven to cultivate with the legislative branch of
the city government, I am not willing to believe
that the latter would wilfully have cast censure
on this department without any notice of such a
purpose. But inadvertence does not change the
lact that I am charged, at lettst by lnuendo, with
official dereliction. A formal application to anyone
to do a special act Involves the suggestion that the
act has not been done; and when Councils request
the Mayor to perform his duty, they convey the
Imputation that his duty has not been performed.
This imputation is unfounded, and against its
utterance, as here made, I respectfully but earnestly
protest.
I do not pretend to understand what is meint by
the enforcement ot "all wilful abnee of the sale of
Intoxicating drinks throughout the city," but for
myself, and In behalf of the force under my com
mand, 1 assert that "the Sunday Liquor Law, and
all laws prohibiting the sale of liquor to minors,"
so far as they come within the powers and duties
of the police, are faithfully and diligently executed;
and that for this reason, if there were no other, the
recommendation "to instruct the . police force un
der" my "control to manifest the utmost care and
vigilance that the laws In this particular be strict
ly enforced, and all offenders brought to justice,"
la wholly gratuitous. In legislative bodies com
prising to many well-read lawyers, and so many
well-informed citizens as are to be found in Coun
cils, it ought not to be doubtful that the provisions
of the laws referred to are properly understood.
'What those provisions are wns bo clearly set forth
by my learned predecessor, Mr. Henry, in reply to
a request made to him by a large number of clergy
men, similar to the request now made to me by
Councils, that I reproduce a portion of his letter:
"There are three statutes, and but three, which re
late to the sale of lienor on Border, within tills Btrtte.
The first tn order of date it a Provincial act of 176,
tbe 6th and 6th tections whereof are in these words:
16.) "And le It further enacted. That all persons
who are found drinking and tippling In ale-houses, ta
t verns. or other public house or place, on the first day
of the week, commonly called rtundsy. or any part
thereof, ahull for ever v nfTtmne lnfnl t and nav one atiil.
ling and sixpence, to any constable that, shall demand
the same, to tbe use of the poor: and all constables are
hereby em Dowered, and by virtne of their cilice re
quired to search pubilo houses and place luioected to
entertain inch tippl rt, and them, when found, quietly
to disperse; tut incase of refusal, to bring the persons
so refusing before the next J ti. tice of the Peace, who
may commit each offenders to the stocks, or bind thm
to their good beuaMor. as to blm shall seem requisite.
And the keepers of such aie-bouee, taverns, or other
public house or place, at shall countenance or tolerate
any such practices, being cnvioted thereof, by the
view of a tingle magistrate, his own confession, or the
proof of one or more credible witnesses, shall, for every
offence, forfeit and pay ten shillings, to be recovered at
and for the usea aboveaid. (8. Provided always,
That nothing In this aot be oonscrued to prevent vic
tualling houses or other public house or place from
suppl)ing the necessary occasions of travellers, in
mates, lodgers, or others, on the firit day of the week,
with victual! and drink iu moderation, for refreshment
only; of which necessary occasion for refreshment, as
also moderation, the magistrate before whom com
plaint is made shall be judge any law, usage, or cus
tom in tbls province to the contrary notwithstanding."
"It may suffice to note that the toleration by this aot
of the sale of liquor, 'for refreshment only.' has been
repealed. The duty of searching publlo houses and
inspected places, and dispersing tipplers, may yet sur
vive, (if. Indeed, it has not been taken away by the 8th
section. Ninth article of tbe constitution of Pennsyl
vania,) but such duty Is enjoined expressly upou all
constables, ofHcia s who are elected by the people; ai d
It foes not pertain to nor can It be exercised by the
police, who are appointed by the Mayor, and alone are
subject to hit control. The process directed by this
obsolete but unrepealed statute, however well adapted
to the requirements of the oommnnity living acentury
and a half ago, would be impracticable at the present
day, and as absurd in rem. dial agenoy as the pun
ishment of the stocks, which has long sinoe been
abandoned. . ,
"The next s'atute bearing upon this subject it that
of 22d April, 17i4 commonly oa led tbe Sunday law,
which, among other provisions, enaott that 'If any
Eerson shall do or perform any worldly employment or
nsiuess whatsoever on tbe Lord's day. commonly
oalled Sunday, work! of necessity and charity only
excepted' 'ana be convicted thereof, every such per
son to offendius shall for evety such offence forfeit
and pay four dollars, to be leviej by diet rent; or, in
case be or the shall refuse or negleot to pay the said
sum, or goods and chatties cannot be found whereof
to levy the same by distress, he or she shall sntfer six
days' impiitoument In the Hoose of CIoTeotion of the
proper county. ' 'Prov ded alwayt, that every each
prosecution shall be commenced within seventy-two
hours after the offence shall be committed.'
"The prohibition of selling liquor is within the
general Interdict of this act, but tbe process which It
gives it punitive in its nature, and not preventive.
The serving of all legal process on Sunday, except in
oaset of treeton, felony or breach of peace, is forbid
den by statute The violation of the Sunday law it a
misdemeanor; but unless accompanied by noise or dis
order, it is not an actual breach of the peace. Suoh Is
the language of the Supreme (Jourt of Pennsylvania,
In tbe decision of a case arising under this law. The
remedy for its Infraction is by complaint within seventy-two
bonrs thereafter before a justioe of tbe
peace, who, upon due evidence, may Impose a fine of
four dollars upon tbe offender; but only one penalty or
four dollars can be Incurred by any one ottender for
all the acts, however nume-ous. performed during any
Sunday in the exercise of his buaiaess.
"Tbe third statute, before referred to, is the act of
26th of February. 1C65, which Is in these terms:
fl "'It shall not be lawful for any person or per
soul to tell, trade or barter lu any spirituous or malt
llquort, wine or cider, on the first day of the week,
commonly oalled Sunday; or for the keeper or keeper!
of any hotel. Inn. tavern, ale bouse, beer house, or
other publlo house or pUce, knowingly to allow or
permit any spltituous or malt llquort, wine or cider,
to bedrank on or within the premises or home occu

WThe leoond section imposes a penalty of fifty dol

unless be Is a witness, in which event the whole pe

1 T'Tv Pnnsr a-p-ehentlon, the Mayor It
clothed with authority to that up the retortt or the
lewd , to check the devices of tbe gambler or polioy
dealer, to teles the persons of reputed criminals to
ttippress all nuisances, to satisfy all complaints, an I
1 hut, too. upon mere suspicion or allegation, without
one tittle ot legal evidence to sustain the processor
the law. But tbe Mayor possesses no inch autocratlo
attributes- he It the executive of tbe law, not the giver
or the law be Is commissioned to vlndlotte the law
wtm iroof is duly made or its violation, and not by
Illegal inquisitions, having no warrant, other tbtn
rumor or suspicion, to make its mandates odious eud
itt p-ocess lntulTerable "
This exposition, which was widely published
before I entered into the office of Mayor, was ac
cepted not only by those to whom it was directly
addiessed, but by tbe general publlo, as conclu
sive of the subject. By me It was certalnry so re
garded, and acting on this convlotlon, and satis
fied that In whatever concerned the public
morals I might safely follow In tbe footsteps
of a magistrate distinguished alike tor purity
ot personal character, and wisdom not less than
firmness in maintaining public order, I have not,
as tbe "executive of the law," felt called upon to
resort to those "Illegal inquisitions" which "make
Its mandates odious and its processes Insuffer
able." At the same time I have endeavored to
prevent breaches of the quiet and decorum of the
Sabbath occurring through this agency, by re
quiring that all persons engaged in disturbances
in taverns, or the vicinity of taverns, should be
summarily dealt with to the extent of my au
thority; and I have reason to believe that, with
occasional exceptions, my orders in this respect
have been strictly carried out.
It is not to be denied that the present condition of
things in Philadelphia on a Sunday in regard to
drinking houses is a scandal and opprobrium. On
many of onr thoroughfares, people, in passing to
and from their respective places of worship, are
oflended by tbe Inducements to dissipation which
are flaunted before ihem, and many a heart is
made sad by the knowledge that some relative or
friend is led astray by these temptations. More
over, tbe police retnrns show that in certain sec
tions, owing to the opportunities offered, what
should be a day of rest is converted into a day of
debauchery, and tbe week which should begin
with reinvigorated strength and spirits is begun
by too many under the exhaustion of excess and
tbe disgrace ot exposure.
In no other ot our great northern cities Is this
state of affairs permitted; and with the oonfessed
Inadequacy ot our existing laws, it Is deplorable
that there has been no suitable legislation to re
medy the evil. In this connection I may say that
at tbe very period as 1 have learned since its
passage when a leading committee of Councils
was engaged in considering the resolution I com
plain of, I was engaged In urging npon the Legis
lature of tbe commonwealth the passage of a law
which would enable the Mayor to abate this great
nuisance. And I feel well assured that if, In
stead of calling upon me now to fulfil duties I
have never neglected, Councils had co-operated
with me then to secure powers which the Ciiief
Magistrate of tbe city ought to possess, much real
good might have been accomplished.
