Xiord, because he has aald that 'the . seventh aay ia tne Haouaui or tna Liora thy God," and therefore we observe the seventh day, as the -Lord haa oom . manded. We do not disobey tha Sunday law and 'teach that It la wrona; from a financial atandpolnt, or because it will Injur our bualnasa, but upon the prin ciple mat it is an infringement on our constitutional and .God-given l rights, and were there a law to compel all men to keep Saturday, the true Sabbath of Jehovah, we would oppose the enact ment and enforcement of such a law as strongly as we do the enactment and enforcement of the Sunday laws. We believe that all men have a right to , worship or not to worship, as they see fit Men are resDonalble onlv to God in the matter of religion, and Sunday laws ara religious laws." . , - , JJEYAN SUKE TO .
