The Ohio Legislature has passed
the civil rights bill. The republican
party gave the Negro national law,
which was unconstitutional. A re-
publican supreme court swept it aside.
Although the common law confers
upon the negro all the rights white
mon have, a democratic legislature
has given him the national civil rights
law, as a state law, where it is not
unconstitutional. This is what nc
republican Legislature of Ohio ever
thought of doing.-Cineinnati News

OF course many constructions may be

idea ho intends 20 convey. In this case,
l admit the mistake Of using the name
at all. for I contend that no man has q
higher regard for the Hebrew popula-

that am personally acquainted with
the great majority Of them resident In
this city, and being personal friends OF
mine, nothing In the world was farther
from my mind than 70 offend them in
the slightest particular. simply meant
to convey the idea that the Sunday Law
worked no hardship upon one more than
another, in tho various branches OF busi-
ness enumerated.
II any class or sect hsd clesed their
places Of business on some other day OF
the week than Sunday for tbs purpose of
their manner Of worship. then IL would
be unfair 20 ask them to close on San
day for the accommodation Of other
persuasioua, IN whose day Of w,rship
they did not believe.
The only business 10 suffer by the en-
forcement Of this law Ia the saloon busi.

this IL beneficial or not 20 the mass OF

such matters. Az far a. she insinu2r

they know as we'll ~ l do. that the por-

ter into q debate With Hebrew or
Merchant Abuse is NOS argument.
and a. did NOT intend 10 be either
abusive or offensive, I do not feel called
upon TO reply. They do not appear to
object 10 the enforcement Of the Sun-
day Law; and even IL they did. believe
We could agree 10 differ. The idea that
Seattle loses ths amount Of money
usually spent here ON Sundays, is poor
system Of reasoning. There has been
no opportunity OF testing the oourss Of
the loQgcrs, a Il is generally admitted
that during the time Of the enforce
ment Of this law, very few logging
camps (if any, within reach Of Seattle.
have been running. and consequently
there has been no need OF going any

Commission Ii fully appreciated BY the
Cominittee bat, as Le vas aotine un-
der the ordinance which Axes 8 Der
diem salary, we DO not feel warranted
in recommending the payment Of tho

ion that the bill should show the num-
Der Of days actually employed as suoh
Commissioners, at the rate Of $3.50 per
day, as fixed In the ordinance. We
would therefore recommend that the
