SUNDAY LID IS LIFTED
(Continued from Flrat !.)
Jaw, section 1988. Is attacked as un
constitutional because of showing dis
crimination among tradespeople and
amusement people of the same class.
It Is branded aa obsolete because of
applying to conditions that existed 60
years ago. Enforcement of the law la
declaimed against as a denial of equal
protection and. a confiscation of prop
erty without due process of law. And
finally the contention Is made that the
business of the various parties affect
ed are conducted, not against, but In
accordance with the purposes of the
law namely, Sunday recreation.
All these points are elaborated upon
In great detail. Much Is made of the
last point, the Idea being put forward
that the day Is one of recreation, since
the law recognizes no religion, and that
In ministering to the lawful and normal
wants of the public the caterer are
acting In furtherance ef the very law
Itself. -
Violation Is ot Crime.
No arguments on the question were
heard yesterday. Judge Gantenbetn
read the complaint and Issued the order
en the basis that violation of the Sun
day law in this case Is not a crime In
Itself but merely a law of order or a
pellrs regulation In Its nature.
The plaintiffs named In the complaint
are M. A. Gunet, the Hart Cigar Com
pany. 61g. Slchel Co., C E. Ernst and
Mrs. R. A. Van Garden. The Injunction,
in applying to these people, reaches all
others similarly affected. The law pro
's Idea that where there are a multiplic
ity of plaintiffs all asserting a common
right, names of all need not be Includ
ed, but may be Indicated as similarly
affected by the Issues of the case.
Hence, all those retailers who have
Joined the anti-Sunday closing organ
isation are affected by the Injunction.
The list Includes cigar dealers, shop
keepers, a few bootblacks, poolroom
and billiard hall keepera, several real
estate agents, druggists who deal In ln-
Identals. fruit stand owners, confec
tioners and bathhouse keepers.
In order to take no chances of having
the law enforced by some person not
affected by Injunction, Messrs Logan
and Bristol overlooked none In the of
ficial line. Not only were Cameron and
the Chief of Police restrained, but all
Cameron's deputies, all the captains and
aergeants of polloe. Municipal Judge
Van Zante and Sheriff Stevens,
ba loons Are Not Affected.
Saloonkeepers, of course, are given !
no opening by the Injunction. The law
i regards saloons Is under a aeparate
section, and It Is unmistakable clear
and concise. The police will exercise
their usual vigilance over the saloons
of the city today.
Much depends on the outcome of the
hearing-tomorrow afternoon.- If the re
tailer fail to secure a permanent In
junction. It Is possible that District At
torney Cameron will proceed to have
warrant issued against those who have
kept open. He said last night he might
follow that course, although he wasn't
sure. Should the retailers fail in estab
lishing that the law is unconstitutional
they will be In a predicament. Indeed,
should Cameron see fit to have the law
enforced. - The only remedy would lay
with the coming Legislature., which
could be asked to repeal the law.
Essential allegations of the retailers'
complaint follow:

Breaks Record of Present Cam
palgn for Long-Distance Sitump-.
Speaking; Day of Real Old
fuslitoncd -Campaigning.
EVAXSVIL.LE, Ind., Oct. S. Long
distance records for stump speaking
during the present campaign were
shattered today by James S. Sherman,
the Republican Vice-Presidential can
didate, and Congressman Nicholas
Longworth. who traveled through two
states delivering speeches. The party
Journeyed almost from the Mississippi
River, across tile northern part of the
state,, thence soutu from Chicago to
Egypt, the so-called Democratic
stronghold, winding up a day of real
old-fashioned campaigning here In the
Hoosier state tonight.
In his addresss here tonight Mr.
Sherman replied to Mr. Bryan'a ques
tion, "Shall the People Rule?" Speak
ing In part as follows
"Shall the people rule" Is declared by the
j-temocrstic platform ana candidate to b
"the overshadowing Issue of the rampalRn.
Seemingly It ha. displaced usuei declared
to be paramount. why are those other
cues of recent years omitted from Mr. Bryan'a
present platform? Why haa he forgotten?
vi ny seemingly so anxious that the people
should forget his silver Issue, his auMiult upon
th. courts, bis Issue of Imperialism? Are
any of these Issues embodied In our statutes?
If not. why are they not found In his present
piatiorm? ir botn Honest ana wise a ae
cade ago. why are they now relegated t
the political scrapheap? In reference to all
these iMues Mr. Bryan la sphynx-like and
he startle an attentive people with this new
query. "Shall the people rule?"
In his own personal experience Mr. Bryan
furnished proof that the people do rule, tin
candidacy now Is a protest against the pop
ular verdict twice officially recorded. Ha
1st arraying his soaring ambition against the
repeated decision, of -the millions of electors.
Three Times and Out.
In '1904 a sort of truce waa entered into
and Bryan retired for the nonce as his party's
candidate. Tha approaching cyclone drove the
Nebraska! into the cellar of temporary re
tirement and Judge Parker led the forlorn
hope of that year. Mr. Bryan Invokes the
old rule of three times and out. This and
hi. own wishes control. His Droteat and ap
peal are heard abov. every other sound. He
Is hi. own advocate, his own witness, crowds
blmselr upon the bench aa his own Judge, and
lh.n Innnlra. "Shall th. nODle rule?"
The answer already twice given will be
repeated in November and once again, in my
judgment, Mr. Bryan will know that the peo
Dle do rule. The people know their own
minds and know how to make their wishes
effective.
Against all these adverse decisions Mr.
Rruti enter, hki nrot.Ht and for the third
time appeal, to th. people to nullify their
deliberate Judgment. H. Insists that tne
people do not rule unless they rule through
him. H. practices all the art of tha trained
n.ni.r w. will sell his wares and will
nnt tnk. no for an anawer. He keeps his
own supply of lime-light and wraps it about
him as a garment. No get-rlch-qulck'
.heme was ever pushed with more Industry
than he devote, to his canvass. In pulpit,
on platform and stage, at fairs and picnics,
he parades himself. All themes are alike to
him. for the sum of each and aJL is the gen
tleman from Nebraska. His grand conclusion
from every promise, from every argument, is
that be muot be master. ele the people do
not rule. Like the French King who aald. I
am the state." he Insists that his title shall
be absolute. He will not admit that the
people rule unless hla caneu.y Is approved
Raises try of Corruption.
Mr. Sherman recalled that Mr. Kern
bad been twice defeated for Governor of
Tnrii.fio. and continued:

The pretext of thU- protest is that the Ballot-box
does not pronounce the true Judg
ment of the electors, but that votes are
bought and the result Is tainted by corrup
tion. A prosecutor must come Into court with
clean hands. The Denver convention had

LOS ANGELES, Cal., Oct 3. (Special.)
That the Panama Canal project as
now prosecuted must eventually be aban
doned and that the great ditch will cost
$700,000,000 instead of 1350.000.000. and will
probably not be completed for 20 years.

papers, including the largest in the canal
zone.
Mr. Duque Is visiting bis brother In this

and bases his discouraging statement on
expert knowledge of the natural condl-
tlons there. He declares the disintegrat
