REP1BLICAN CITY TICKET.
Opening tho Fair On Sunday.

The Chicago Mail speaks OF the
"blatant intolerance" OF those who op'
pose the opening Of the Worlds Fair on
Sunday. The attitude OF the openers
has impressed tho INrELIdENcER as
savoring more Of intolerance,
These latter have threatened diretul
things II the fair be not opened every
day in tho week. They have made
pleas which look very like pottifogging
their case. They profess to think that
some inalienable right Of the American
people is TO be taken away unless the
Sunday opening movement shall pre-
vail.
Above all thoy arc champions of tho
workingman and his family, who are
supposed to be in circumstances so re.
duced that unless they can SEQ tho fair
on Sunday they will be unable to sec it
at all. lift be granted that this applies
to some OF the workingmen Of Chicago,
this is all that can be said for the work
ingman argument.
The workingman from distance who
can 60 to Chicago TO gee the fair will
not be SO close pressed for money that
1t will make any difference to him
whether the fair is opened or closed on
Sunday. It will make a decided differ.
erence to the workingmen and working
women employed about the fair.
Two good points arc made by the
Sunday openers: Congress has no pow
or to say whether the fair shall be open
ed or closed on Sunday; and the man.
agement probably has no right to close
public park to the people on Sunday.
But the public park may be open and
all the fair buildings closed, or the
buildings may be open and the work
ing OF the fair suspended.
Finally it may be said that if it were
not for the money expectod,t to be made
out of 1t, the Sunday openers would not
push their case SO vehemently.

Some nimble wits have found in the
domestic life OF ex-presldent Hayes
much 10 make fun OF.
To DO true and loving husband, to
look to the rearing OF his sons, to spend
his evenings at home quietly with his
family when he might have been some.
where else, to mingIo with his neigh
bors on terms OF kindly equality-these
things struck the wits as being tar below
the dignity Of a man who had been in
public life all that General Hayes had
been.
To some minds 1t does seem astound'
ing that n man with anything in him
can DO deliberately guilty of any Of
those domestic virtues which are at
once the safety and the glory of the
American home.
