The Aurora finds fault with the new City
Administration for shutting up the grog-shops on
Sunday and other measures ofihe kind. This Is
wrong. The Council is electe! to enforce the
laws and cause them TO be respected. it has no
business, while acting in its Executive capacity,
to consider whether any law be wise or un"ise,
benefcen, Or oppressive. 1t must enforce the
laws, while they exist; though II may at the
same time take measures 20 repeal such Of them
as are within It's control. 4 l4w OF long a:and-
ing prescribcs the closing cf the gfog shops on
the sabbath; the new City Government has oaly
enforced this long disIegerded statute Ii any
are aggreyed by this course, they should petition
for repeal of the act, bat not find ust with It's
enforcement. while it remains unrepcaled


The course OF the new Superintendent OF
Hacks and Cabs in requiring ali the drivers to
stand BY :hc;I carriages and not crowd forward
TO the boats, blocking up the passages and aimost
dcyour;ng the passengers, is universally approved
We have 10 doubt the Hacks and CABS nos
receive passengers who were before disguised and
repceG By the conduct OF the drivers and run
ners, while the modest and Gcccnt have far
chance, which they formerly had not, and the
travelling public is greatly relieved and accommo-
dated. We wo2d suggest to the superiniend-
ent that he must not relax but increase his vlgi-
lance and energy ii he wishes to sustain the g'7d
opinion he has already gained. There aFeabases
still existing which may be corrected to the ad-
vantage OF ell honest parties.


We hear much praise OF the determination
Of our new rulers to enforce the laws, and t:us 1t
IS al! deserved. l, will not DC che=Pig earned.
however. Is there no law against the practice OF
filing cur s,rccts with filthy swine Than the
discharge Of firearms rockets, sc. in our streets
on the approach Of the Fourth of July to the great
peril and frequent destruction OF lie-is not that
IN PLAIN violation OF the laws Aid shall the
laws or the aw.breakers triumph this year


We rejoice to ica- that the practice OF SUI
rounding the Park with Rum Booths On the
Fourth is to be stopped this year l, was always
an incxca:abc nuisance there bcing three thou
sand regularly licensed places to get drunk, With
out these Booths.
