I ask leave to stnd a few minutes in the presence of your Increasing constituency and ''spenk a piece." ... There should be in every city a chic and municipal conscience. Tl o least net of a government Is to Becuro and maintain such rule as will In accord ance with the Ten Commandments, at least: than which there Is no higher theit (including gambling, ate) and other flagrant wrongs. Onj of the chiefest contiibutions to the success of progress In America, and one of the elements causing our ' peoi-1-3 to be known as free from many of the blighting conditions of Europe, from which the country most of the nlieiis come seeking our national health, is tht' fact that in the best governed cities and states there is legal nnd moral regard for the Sabbaih. The Sabbath day was never m;iue for the purpose of being itsef an in st:tu'.ion to be worshipped. There hts been ' the extremist who t.iught that idea. Our Lord found such''vhcn He was among men. He said: "The Sabbath was made for man, not mnn for the Sabbath." ' JVith us the day is being made a day of riot, racket, unresting, disturbance, profanity, li cense and Intemperate acting. I am referring now directly to the license permitted to contractors n continuing their work on the streets on Sunday, and to the unrebukod ca rousing s In baseball matters. The morals of no city are improved one iota by the "fans" and others flocking from city to city disturbing the pence of the peace lovers. The yells of the diamond last Sunday afternoon were to. be heard a mile distant; the 6lck in the community were distracted and there was nq relief. To be sure they would be Interfered within any day, but they should be permitted a Sab bath rest if they so desired. The peace of the whole community was rudely, wickedly, and profanely dis turbed.
