City Versus Country
DIR. PARKHURsT FAvoRs
SUNDAY sALOoNs 49,

A movement which IS attracting at
tention throughout the country is
that headed BY Judge William Travers
jerome. recently elected district at
torney Of New York county. favoring
the adoption Of a more liberal excise
law. The views Of Judge jerome.
which are that the saloons of New
York should be thrown open during
certain hours on Sunday, are heartily
endorsed by some 0f the most promi-
nent elergymen and laymen in that
city. IT Is the general consensus Of
opinion that the enforcement Of the
Raines law il many Of the larger cities
Ia the state, was a deprivation TO a
great class Of citizens and In many
cases worked more harm than good
The measure has in many instances
failed 70 accomplish the objects which
its trainers had ia mind and it IS be-
lieyed that the Republican majority
now in the legislature would not pro-
pose
A Revision OF the Law.
The provision in the excise law
which gave birth to the Raines law
hotel has done much to turn public
approval against the measure as a
whole, and in many quarters it has
come to be regarded as a farce. The
side door evil has also had a demor-
alizing effect not only among police
officials, who wink at this fragrant
violation Of the law, put among the
public generally
Many prominent New Workers. who
have been interviewed on the subject.
are convinced that there is a crying
need for a change IN the law which
will do away with the evils consequent
upon the closing Of saloons on Sunday.
With this end in view it is desired to
bring about conference Of men rep
resenting various elements Of social
and business life In New York and
draft a measure that could be support
ed by all. naming the hours for Sun
day opening and presenting that
measure for ratification in the legisla-
ture

THEIR LAST DAY IN CANADA
Duke and Duchess Of York Say Fare
we'll to Dominion.


Halifax, N. s., Oct. 21.-The royal
party yesterday spent its last day in
Canada. In the morning the Duke and
Duchess expected to attend divine SER
vice at st. Pauls Anglican church,
but the governor general and the
Countess were the only prominent
members of the royal party that at
tended. An immense congregation
had attended the service in the expec-
tation of seeing the royal couple. The
bishop OF Nova Scotia, Rev. DR.. Court
ney, preached a sermon in which he
said that the belief in the divine right
OF kings was dead and thanked God
that such was the case. Robert Burns,
he contended was the man whom he
considered had done more than any
other in his generation to establish
the equality of mankind. In the even
ing there was a dinner at Admiralty
House which the Duke and Duchess
attended. The warships were illumin-
ated this evening. The royal couple
left for st. John, N. F., at IL o'clock
this morning on the Ophir.
