SUNDAY OPENING
CT tie Worlds Columbian Expos
itiOn.

1t is finally settled that the Expos
ition will be open on Sunday. We
do not propose to discuss the relig
eous, moral, theological features of
the case. That has been done and
Will continue to be done by persons
equipped for these fields. What
halts us, ga wayfairlng man." is
the jugglery of the law.
The case Is this, as well as we
can understand its Chicago Sc
cures for herself the location of the
Worlds Fair. Chicago goes to
Congress and asks that the Nation
give sum of money in aid of the
enterprise, In effect, to become a
partner in the speculation. After
much discussion the Nation, through
It's agents in Washington, agrees to
advance sum, perhaps one-half of
the cash capital. The condition of
the partnership demanded by the
Nation and agreed to by Chicago,
is that the Fair shall be closed on
Sunday. This agreement is "sign-
ed, sealed and delivered" Chicago
gets the Nations money, part of the
sum, and business opens up. The
closing of the Far on Sunday, Chi
cago thinks it will be loss to the
speculation of say $4,000 a, week,
the gate money for the one day.
This, from the speculative, money
making view of the Chicago part
ner, isn't good business. The Fair,
in open violation of the contract, Is
opened on Sunday. The Nation
objects, goes into court, and asks an
injunction restraining Chicago from
opening on Sunday. The court
can't help but issue the restraining
order. The Fair is closed on Sun
day. Now comes Chicago with a
supercedeus bond, and brings the
case before the supreme Judge. He
dissolves the injunction and the
case is appealed to the supreme
court, the highest tribunal in the
country, where the case will be ar
gued and settled. Now that is all
according to the court code; that is
the plan Of procedure, which the
distilled Jurisprudence of the
country has given to the people as
the plan to enforce contracts, to Sc
cure justice.
The supreme court, TO which the
case has been appealed, does not
hold session until after the Fair is
over.
Now, leaving out of the question
all matters of politics and religion,
does it not look as though the Ma
tion had been thimble rugged, had
been played on a very near approach
to gamblers device at a race
course. 1t is this notorious pros
titu:ion Of the Law to the selfish
purposes of spectators that brings
courts into contempt, and lncites
lynching of criminals, and the burn
ing down Of Court House in the
Queen City Of the West.
Chicago may make few thous-
and dollars by reason Of this play
in the courts, but the people of this
country will loose much more in the
lessening of confidence and respect
in our lands and the methods of
manipulating them.

CAL. HESTER, of Lancaster, oh

CAL. HESTER, Of Lancaster, one
OF the prominent young Democrats
of Ohio, was visitor in our city
last week, and met hearty welcome
. from his many personal and pollti.
cal friends in Logan. He is urged by
his friends at home, and from all
parts of the state, to be a candidate
for Lieutenant Governor before the
forthcoming Democratic state con
vention; and has consented to allow
hls name to be presented. We hope
he will be nominated. He is a man
and Democrat, fitted for the place.
He is enterprislng, educated; accom-,
plished as an attorney and public
speaker and will give strength to
the ticket, because his personal
popularity will secure many votes
I ON the ranks of the opposing
party. While we may not owe
Fairfield any political debt, we do
have a kindly regard for her gallant
Democrats, formost among whom
is Col. Holster. and his nomination
will b. compliment and a deserv-
ed recognition to theHocking Val
ley. which will be appreciated at
the convention, and reciprocated by
Agr votes III November.

yard is located It the junction Of this
eastern branch with the main body OF
the Potomac. The water is shoal. shoal.

morass on account of the neglect Of
congress to make appropriations for
keeping the channel clear. The eastcrl
branch is scarcely large enough and
deep enough to-day for navigation by
skiff; although occasionally it rises and
foods the surrounding country.
Before the war the plant Of the
Washington navy yard was an exten-
sivc, costly and valuable one. It was
famous all over. the world for the skill
of its wOrlSmen and the quality and
amount OF work done there. 1t is not
generally known, but it is nevertheless
fact, that the second largest warship
ever built by the republic was con-
structed Mt this navy yard; the old Co
lumbus. second in size only to the ia
nous Pennsylvania The Columbus
was rated as l1.-gun ship of the line,
but she carried one hundred and thirty
six guns. The Pennsylvania was the
largest wooden warship ever launched
in this country. and the Columbus was
but little smaller. In 1855 congress au-
thorized the construction of six new
frigates, and all of them were completed
In time to participate in our civil war.
One Of them. the Minnesota, was built
and launched here in 1857, a staunch
ship of the line carrying fifty-seven
guns. Another Of those six frigates
was constructed at the Portsmouth
yard, and named the Merrimac. The
latter vessel was sunken at Norfolk by
the rctreating United States officers,
raised by the confederates, covered with
IN iron armor, and went forth to shat
ter and sink the Minnesota, as well Is
another frigatc, the Congress, In Hamp-
ton Roads The Minnesota had been
considered our crack fSigate, but the
work done by the confederates upon
the Merrimsc rcvolutionized naval
warfare.
For many years this navy yard was
an important one, and there have been
as many rs FIVE thousand people en-
ployed here at one time, but not since
the war. After the commencement OF
the civil war the place was neglected

the statesmen of that day, however. to
say that the constantly shOaling condi-
