"Well auld he, "I dou't think that I the reaaon. The law la even more atrlct against the aahaina being- kept open on Hunday, and not one paye the JeaatattoiiUontelhelaw.

Now, I will tell you how I account for It. There are fifty-two Sundaya In each year. 1 mire are only two or three election day In a year. The law for cloalng the aaloona on Sunday, If enforced, would deprive them of fifty-two working Uayp, mat hi one reaaon. The fine for keeping uloon oHn on Sunday I only ten to tweuty-fivo dollara for each often ! while for keeping open on election day It la tweuty-nve to two hundred dollar aud alao Imprisonment In the county Jail ten to thirty daya.

"Now theu It la aald that no ;iiu want to pose aa a reformer and make the aaliama remain cloaca on Hauoam aa lb law say they ahould. Toelllft a remedy wny wouin 11 nov ue jiuw Idea to Increaa the flue for keeping open ou Sunday and make a email one for keeping oiien after ten o'elock at night.

The gruiid jury that lately met t Italia found out tbat the law waa plain enough, it enly wanted wimeoiie enforce It. We euggcat lu tne coming Icglalature tbia new law. The aaloona will violate an early cloalng law, but will then obey the Sunday ud electluii day law." Youra, for luw and order, A. W 1 let tbev aally forth.
