The Sunday law that we have worked so marc

now. As il stands now, If merchant was 70

handle him To the full extent tor 1t as the law
says positively that no place OF business shal,
open On Sunday, only drug stores. markets and
Ttares where bread Is made and sold If a man
boards at a restaurant, as several DO In THIS
place he is bound to go without anything to eat
MI that day or go somewhere else to get 1t. We
know this to be fact.
As far as Sunday law Is concerned we are
in favor of it But we are not in favor OF the
way 1t is now carried out: we have been in sew
eral States where no business of any kind was
supposed to be transacted on Sunday. but we
never yet saw a law that compelled restaurants
to keep closed ON the Sabbath day. We have an
honorable body of police members, capable OF
making parish laws that none can object to-
Let us hope that at their next meeting some
changes will be made that will let q restaurant
keep open as well rs hotel

tieed In this Sunday law-if q boat happens to
get behind time, and makes this port Saturday
night or Sunday morning, 1t has to wait at a
heavy expense till Monday morning before 1t
can be unloaded. This seems unreasonable,
and some change should be made in that line;
of course, q warehouse Is private property, and

please.

Japanese Duties.

Coufler-J 0urnal. Lee. N.l
The Paris Moniteur announced yesterday that
the Japanese governments has renowned all
commercial treaties, and proposes to revise its
customs duties at pleasure. This is not very
surprising. as the customs dues have been die
tated by foreign powers, and chiefly by England:
As the Japanese government is getting more of
the wisdom of this world 1t Is natural for i. to
thror of impediments e its finances The
export duty on tea. which is collected under
English supervision. The, japanese desire a
low tariff on imports and the abolition of the
tariff an exports. and would not have a protec-
tive tariff, Nine-tenths of the revenue is now
raised by system of tithing based on the rice
crop. The balance is derived from the Internal
revenue system, a customs tax and the sale of
timber from government lands. The exports
amount to about SIS, 600. 900 and the imports to
$27 600 OF which $40 oco geo worth comes from
England alone. The American trade Is mainly
in leather, Kerosene grain and clocks. AMOUNT
Ing to aaly 81 100000 year. The United States
purchases from Japan about 50 900 900, 81 900 600
Of whiSh is In tea alone on which there Is a
large duty to pay. II left to themselves. the
Japanese would doubtless inaugurate q free
trade spstAn1 or at least grade their tariff very
low, which, with increased facilities for trans
psrtatlon, would enhance the American trade
largely In manufactured goods. which England
now supplies.
