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.

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. 0005 'oooe WOOLTEX SUITS I La Porte Woolen DRESS FABRICS AND SILKS We cordially invite every woman to spend time leisurely viewing our new stocks of Dress Goods Suitings and Silks for Fall Wear.
