Then the paper states that you have
copied closely the French Sunday law
which allows a man to do practically
anything that he chooses except work
Why exclude works Have we come tic
an age in the world s history when
work is to be classed as a crimes Are
criminals so few that we need a law
that will make criminals of honest
laborers? And yet we have just such
a law on our statue books today, for
the Advertiser printed November 20,
1906, the list of criminals brought be-
fore the judges of the city on the 18th
nine DRINKS who were fined three dol
lars and costs; two, who had engaged in
a drunken brawl on the street and cut
each others heads open with beer bot
ties, were fined five dollars and
costs, and three men who had
actually worked on Sunday after IL
clock were fined ten dollars and costs.
This shows that already we have law
that looks upon honest labor on Sun
day as being more than three times as
dlSreputable as drunken street
nuisance and twice as bad as a drunken
street brawl where heads are cut open
by beer bottles and lives are actually
put in danger. Ought we not to learn
a lesson from this and repeal such laws
whereby such fragrant injustice is done
to honest men who are simply laboring
to support themselves and families9
Think you that it is best to add to
these laws SO that every honest laborer
who is found at his employment can
he treated in the same manner? Is
IL = H. IL -
was established? Is it the business
of lawmakers to make criminals of
honest men?
Then again all articles are restricted
in this law except refreshments such
as 'soda water, cigars, chewing gum
etc. " Is it not as necessary for the
poor family who lives from hand to
mouth to get it's daily food at the
corner grocery as for some gentleman
of leisure to purchase his cigar so that
he can poison himself with its nicotine
and befoul the pure air of heaven SO
that others, to some of whom it is
very obnoxious, must breathe the pol
luted stuff after him2 Was the world
made only for men Of leisure or did
the Lord expect that there would be
some poor in it that would need the
help of the lawmakers and to be re-
membered by them as much as the
tobacco smoker? Does not the Lord
say that pure religion and undefled is
to visit the fatherless and widows in
their affliction, and keep himself I'M
spotted from the world?
Yours for fair, square deal to every
man, woman and child.

AN OPEN LETTER To
THE CIVIC FEDERATION

To the Members of the Civic Fedora
ton of Honolulu, H. /.
Will you permit me to make state
ment of some facts and ask a rev
questions with reference to the new
Sunday law which the Evening Bulle-
tin SAYS that you are preparing to
present to the LEGISLATURE First,
every Sunday law that forbids work
ON that dav which is lawful on other
DAYS, making that day day of rest
above other days of the week, IS
primarily a religious law. Whatever
civil cloak you may throw around it,
it's foundation principle will always be
a religious one; for the only thing that
distinguishes it from other days of
the week is the religious character
ascribed to it by men. Therefore
whenever you begin to legislate with
reference to setting this day apart as
a day of rest, you begin to enact re-
ligious legislation which is unconstitu-
tional; for article one of the amend
ments to the Constitution of the Unit
ed States says Congress shall make
no law respecting an establishment OF
religion, or prohibiting the free exer-
else thereof Every law establishing
the religious character of this day
above the other days of the week is
also law that establishes the religion
that puts that day forth as a religious
day. Again every law that establishes
that day as a day of rest and cessa-
tion from labor because of its reli-
gious character imperils the rights of
those who do not consider 1T sacred
institution; for it deprives them of
one-sixth of their time. What is right
for a government to do for one reli-
gious body is right for it to do for
other religious bodies that exist in
its domains. Then if it is. right to set
Sunday apart by law because certain
religious seets believe it to be a sacred
day and compel those who do not be-
lieve it to be sacred to keep it as
such, would it not be equally right to
set apart by law Saturday as a day
of rest because other religious sects
such as the Jews, Seventh Day Bap-
fists and Seventh Day Adventists,
think it to be sacred9 What think
you9 Would you be willing to give up
one-sixth of your time because they
thought that Saturday was a day of
sacred restl If not, why should you
ask them to give up one-sixth of their
time because you think that Sunday
is day of sacred rest2 But some say
We must legislate for the masses or the
majority of the people; nay, but gov
ernments are instituted to protect the
rights of the people and to especially
protect the minority. The strong can
care of themselves, it is the rights
of the weak that governments are to
protect.
Let the rights of every man be
preserved and favors be granted to
none. Any religion in which there is
not enough of the power of God to
sustain and enforce its every ordinance
let it go down, for it is useless for
salvation. The religion of Jesus Christ
needs none of the power of Peters
sword. The only sword it needs is the
sword of the Spirit of God.

You.
We are living In a very rapid age.
Few of us bother our heads about
small things, and so many persons look
upon a pain, ache or lameness In the
back as a small thing. They wait for it
to pass off, giving no thought to the
cause. Remember; The kidneys are
the sewers of the system; they carry
off the impure matter. but sewers
sometimes become c1ogged up. So do
the kidneys. The kidneys are located
near the small of the back, hence any
stoppage affects the back. This means
backache, lame back weak back and
many other distressing symptoms.
There is lots more to tell on this sub
ject, but we won't do 1t here. for we
want to show you how to keep the kid
neys so the back will have no cause to
ache. You might not believe us, SO
we will let one or your own citizens
tell their experience:
W. F. Williams of this city, is a
lighthouse keeper, and he has held
this position for the last 80 years. He
says: ST was for number of years,

To paraphrase Uncle By"
we rise to remark that little
Emerson, of the hyphenated rag
down the street, reminds us of
a little boy riding a stick horse,
and he cuts about as much
figure in the newspaper business
too.
PHILLIP LABATTE is, we UNI
derstand, going to be permitted
to run a saloon at Peever. This
much is given as a matter of
news. Now then, if there is a
law prohibiting a white man
from selling liquor to an Indian,
shouldn't our red brethren be
prohibited from selling to the
whites? If an Indian can't buy
liquor how is he going to get any
to sell, either to a white man or
an Indian?-Browns Valley Tri-
bune.
EMERSON, of the Banner,
enlits a noise this week between
a snarl and bray. The arrogant
inflated little ass is probably not
really to blame for being such
a conceited, narrow minded MIN
compoop, it's his nature, or else
he is sadly deficient in that
which ought to serve him as an
intellect.
AT a special meeting of the
county commissioners, held
Tuesday, that august body APP
proved the bond of Phillip La
Bate to sell liquor in the viii
lage of Peever, and turned
down the application of John
Anderberg, to conduct a saloon
in the same village, notwith-
standing the village council had
accepted the bond of both ap-
plicants. We do not presume to
dictate to the county commits
sioners in this matter, but we
understand that the people Of
Peever n very much dissatisfi-

in which their wishes in the
matter have been set at naught.

June EClipses Every Month
This Year for Good

A QUIET MONTH.
Only a Measly Little $500
Assessed For Violating
City's Laws.

A reformation has certainly taken
a strong hold on the class of people
who have hitherto had but little res
pect for the city's laws. The reason
for nearly everybody getting good
all at once cannot be traced to any
great underlying cause. Strange as
ltmay seem an investigation of Chief
of Police Roper's slate yesterday re-
vealed the astounding fact that but
81 arrests for various causes have
been made this month and only 5000
in fines has been assessed in the City
Courts. In January there were IS
arrests; February, 60; March, "a;
April, sc and May IA. A total of 416
for six months up to the morning of
June 28th.
AS was said by one of the speakers
at the reception Of the Nashville
Boosters last Tuesday at the Hotel
Latham, 'Hopkinsville is the best
town or earth" 1t looks like the
assertion is true in more ways than
one. Everybody will be glad to
learn of the very apparent improve
ment in the morals of the city. In
vestigation would, probably, show
that June has been the quietest
month in the police circles for de.
cade, or even a longer time. 'Let
the good work go on"
