ness as to leave no ground for complaint. "We believe that if the saloon keepers themselves will take steps to correct the abuses upon which most of the com- plaints have been founded, that complaints will cease, the public agitation be quieted and the saloon keepers left alone to pursue their business undisturbed by the agitations spread- ing over the state. To this end we seriously urge: "i. That all saloon keepers take extra pains and precau- tions to conduct their business in a quiet and orderly man- ner and to allow no disturbance within, or congregating without their places. "2. That they keep their places darkened on Sundays, with blinds down and front doors closed; that bowling al- leys, pool tables and other games of amusement be suspended on that day; that the operation of phonographs and the playing of all musical instruments be suspended, that no congregating on sidewalks or about saloons, sitting on water . troughs, chairs or benches in front of or about saloons be permitted ; that all blinds be so drawn as to prevent light within from being seen from without; that loud conversa- tion or boisterous conduct be prevented, and that everything be done to convince the authorities and the public in gen- eral that the law is being practically complied with. "Unless the foregoing directions are followed by the sa- loon keepers of this city and county, we are firmly convinced that the Sunday closing law will be enforced. We hope you will follow the warning we herein give."
