OUR WIDE OPEN SUNDAY.

WE wonder IL 1t has ever occurred to
IL is the women who are mostly respon-
sible for the disgraceful nonobservance
of Sunday. OF course there are the
saloons and the cigar stores, that are
patronized mostly by men, but in addi-
tion to these 1t Is q we'll known fact
that many grocery stores, fruit stores,
dry goods stores, furnishing stores,
book stores, and stores of other kinds
are kept open here on Sunday for the
whole or Q part of the day. We do not
propose to enter into the discussion of
the question on religious or moral
grounds. It is for the churches to agi-
tate and keep alive discussion of the
matter in that light. But we believe
that the practice of keeping all sorts of
business open on Sunday is wrong;
first, because 1t Is unfair aud inhumane
to the employees of the stores, who
have no choice in the matter. but must
serve or lose their places; second, be-
cause it is distinctly against the law of
the state of Texas, and as the law Is
reasonable and just and right, it
should be enforced as strictly as pos
sible; third, because it is entirely I'M
necessary, and 1t is only shiftlessness on
the part OF the shoppers, in most cases,
that creates q fancied demand for Sun
day opening. 1t seldom happens that
p urchsses made on Sunday could not
be made on Saturday just as we'll.
Every state in its laws has re-
cognized the rightfulness and
necessity of strict protection
of the rights of working people to the
free enjoyment of 81 least one day in
the week. BY common consent, aside
from any religious significance the day
may have, Sunday has been set aside
as the day of rest and recreation
throughout the country. In this city
there is not the slightest attempt made
tos enforce the law. While we censure
severely the mayor and the sheriff for
thus violating their official oaths, at
the same time we are inclined to think
that the people who, from sheer care
lessness, patronize the Sunday-opening
stores, and thus create a demand to be
supplied by this pernicious practice,
are even more to blame-this upon the
ground that no law can be effective
until it hes the force of public opinion
and practice behind il.

Live Stock.
Cattle Dipping

A Fort Stockton dispatch to the
Houston Post says: The state live
stock sanitary commission meets at
Fort Worth. 1t is understood that the
commission will pass an order CLOSING
the two months open shipping season
for cattle below the quarantine line.
Heretofore stockmep below the line
have been privilege to shin cattle from
November Is to January Is. The pro-
posed order will not allow them to ship
at any time of the year except for i'm
mediate slaug liter unless the cattle are
first dipped in solution of eighty
pounds of sulphur to each 1000 gal
Ions of dynamo oil. The proposed or
der referred to was agreed upon at q
meeting of the live stock sanitary COM
missioners of the different states in
terested, held recently at Omaha, at
which the Texas commissioners were
present, but the dipping process re-
ferred to is only in an experimental
stage. The principal experiment
so far made is one with two car
loads of cattle belonging to D. F.
White of Midland, Texas. A number
of papers have tried to interview Mr..
White on the result, but he has uni
formly refused to answer questions
The following facts are positively
known here: Mr.. Whites cattle were
in common condition though not fat.
Iney began TO snow signs OF pain
Immediately after dipping and rapidly
declined, showing that the treatment
was entirely too severe. Less than
half of these cattle are now alive. A
gentleman now in Fort Stockton who
has watched these cattle ever since
they were dipped says: 1.-THE truth is,
they never get through dying. In one
sense the treatment is success. 1t
does what 1t Is claimed-it kills the
ticks-but the animal dipped dies too. +"
If the commission passes this order
there will be new political issue in
Texas.
