The labor organizations Of Portland

OPEN WIDE THE GATES.

A large majority of the American
people are in favor of keaning the gates
of the Lewis and Clark fair open on
Sunday. There are a large number VINO
are in favor of having the gates closed.
The Portland Ministerial Association is
advocating and working for closed
gates. The labor organizations are in
favor of open gates. In the opinion Of
a great many this question should be
left to the people who furnish the
money to inaugurate and carry on the
fair. But, as a rule, IT is those who
never contribute cent to any enter
prise who always have the most to say
as to how it shall be managed.
If all the saloons, cigar stores, no
tells, restaurants, beer gardens, the
aters, stores and other places are to ha
kept open on Sunday. II excursions
are to be given on the rivers, and horse
races on the fair grounds: games Of
ball and other amusements to be al
lowed, then the gates of the Lewis and
ClaIk fair should 2 thrown wide open.
Not all of the people who will visit
the fair will care to attend church. Not
all Of them will care to put in Sunday
at the saloons, or go on excursions or
visit ball games or horse races; but
they would be pleased 70 attend the
fair on Sunday. 1t is not right to al
low certain class of people to violate
the Sunday laws and compel others
to close. We believe in Sunday obser-
vance, but also believe the example
should be set by closing all places of
public amusement on Sunday. If one
class are permitted to carry on their
