It is the opinion of the Editor of
the Headlight that it is to the best
interest of Tillamook County and the
taxpayers that the Sunday closing
law just declared constitutional by
the Supreme Court should be ignored.
'1 he law has been a dead letter for
years, and if it is necessary to have a
Sunday closing law let one be passed
that is more in conformity with the
tunes. To inforce the present law it
is going to create more or less fric
tion and ill feeling and a whole lot of
useless expense in prosecuting per
sons who should not be prosecuted.
1 he law exempts from the provisions
theaters, drug stores, doctor's offices,
undertakers, butchersand bakers.The
law is far reaching and puts the "lid”
on most everybody who labor on
Sunday, and it is hard to draw the
line. For these and other reasons we
believe it is to the best interest of the
people not to inforce this antiquated
and unjust law, for if the butchers
and bakers are allowed to do business
on Sundays, we do not see why other
persons cannot do the same. Should
the district attorney deem it his duty
to enforce the law, then it should be
enforced right up to the handle, and
every "sinner” who works on Sunday
or employs labof should be prosecut
ed.
Classic Coats for Women
And, indeed, the coats are rightly named “Classic.”
You must see them—you must trg them on—to ap
preciate fully the beautiful lines, the style and the
charm of these coats. Women who put on “ Classic”
coats always exclaim over their distinctive style.
You, too, will be equally pleased when you see your
self in a Classic coat.
Whether you are ready to buy or not—we urge you
to come to the store and see the coats and try them on.
The price will make you exclaim with pleasure, too.

District Attorney T. H. Goyne,
when interviewed this morning in re
gard to the enforcement of the Su ri-
day closing law, stated that he had
not decided what he would do, but
would consider the matter. As the
City Council has undertaken to regu-
late pool rooms etc., he does not feci
like interfering, as the conditions in
the city are going along smoothly
and satisfactorily, lie does not like
the idea of the law allowing butchers
and bakers doing business on Sunday
and is in doubt somewhat where to
stop should he decide to put the “lid”
on Sunday closing.
Judge Webster Holmes is of the
opinion that the Sunday closing law
is not a law of the State of Oregon,
for the reason that it was not includ
ed in the code.
In Marion County the law was at
tacked in a case of J. P. Rogers on a
writ of review from the Justice court,
on the 25th of July, 1904, which was
signed by Judge Burnett and when
the case came to trial Judge Galloway
reversed the lower court. John Mc
Nary, .who, was district attorney did
not appeal the case:
Judge Holmes says:
The Sunday closing law so called
was handed down from Territorial
days, under the provision of the
State Constitution Art. XVIII, Sec 7;
which provides “All laws in force in
the territory of Oregon when this
Constitution takes effect, and con
sistant herewith, shall continue in
force until altered or repealed.”
The Sunday law was included in the
Code of Criminal Procedure passed
October 19th, 1864.
O11 October 21, 1864, two davs later
the same session passed Senate Bill
71, and by it repealed it.
S. B. 71 is entitled, “An act to re
peal all statutes of a general nature,
with certain exceptions.”
Section 1, thereof provides, and
reads as follows:—“That all statutes
of a general nature passed or in force
before the commencement of the ses
sion commencing September the 8th
A. D. 1862, except those enumerated
and mentioned in the next section,
be and the same are hereby repealed’
Setion 2, of said S. B. 71, does not
enumerate the Sunday closing law
nor docs it refer to it in any manner.
The Sunday closing law was there
for and thereby "hereby repealed.”
There has been much ado about
nothing for a good many years, and
unnecessary strife kicked up between
neighbors, and many a good and en
joyable game of ten pins interrupted
or prevented by the mistaken belief
that we had a “Sunday Closing Law”
in Oregon.
