As many thinking persons in North
umberland county predicted, the coal
region saloon keepers, who banded to
gether to observe the liquor laws after
being threatened witli exposure, have
violated their promise, as well as the
solemn oatli taken at the original grant
ing of licenses, and yesterday Sujier
intendent Riley, of the Anti-Saloon
league, appeared before Justice Vin
cent, of Northumberland, and swore
out warrants for the arrest of a num
ber of Shamokiu saloon keepers for
selling on Sunday.
Rev. Riley, before the last session
of license court, arrested ninety rum
sellers of Shamokiu anil Mount Carmel
for violation of the law,but on paying
fines and promising to be good the cul
prits were spared further trouble.
At license court Judge Savidge took
a hand by warning the saloon men,and
suggesting that they form an anti-Sun
day selling association. Deputy Pro
thonotary Rietz visited the coal re
gions for the express purpose of wit
nessing the promises of the sellers to
obey the law.
The pith of the whole situation lies
in the fact,generally recognized among
the citizens of Northumberland coun
ty, that there is an outrageous number
of saloons in the coal region end of
the county; aud as long as saloons
must depend on an average of less than
200 persons—men, women and children
—to support each one, there will be
cut-throat competition or violation of
the law in an effort to win trade.
Six warrants were issued at Riley's
instance and more arc to follow.
Burgess Pursel is now ready to swear
in the fire police for the ensuing year.
