SU N D A Y LEGISLATION We were pleased to note the loyalty to the fed ;ral constitu tion expressed in the resolutions passed t y the W. C. T. U. as published in last week’s issue of the Journal. At the present time a desperate effort ia being made to violate the constitution by the passage by congress of a Sunday closing law for the Dis- tiict of Columbia, and it be hooves everyone who b. lieve3 in religious liberty and constitu tional rights to fight this b: 11. The bill in itself is not very drastict; in fact, it has obviously been drawn liberal purposely to facilitate its passage. But it is sufficient to establish the prin ciple, and it is admittedly only the entering wedge for future Sunday legist't<on of national scope. When our forefathers dumped the tea into Boston harbor they were not objecting to the s ight tax they would have hud to pay. hut. to the principle that England had a right to tax them without their consent. And the same object’on obtains in regard to this Sunday bill. We publish below a few quotations from eminent men to show the opinion of really worth while people on the subject of Sunday legislation: ■'Th<i first Sunday law, the e d ic t of th e E n p s r o r C onstantine, was the produc t of t h a t p a e a n conception d e veloped by the Romans, which m ade religion a p a r t o f th e s t a t e . . .

The O ’d T est am ent coalm an l td the ob se rv an c e of the Sab- b a th , , . . and it desiguated S a t urday, not Sunday, as th e duy of rest • . . As late as t h e y e a r 499 two r e s c r i p t s of the E m p s r o r s Ilonorius and Theodosius indicate t h a t Christian* t h e n still g e ie r n li y obse rved the Sa b. b oth (Saturday, not Sunday) . . W h a t religion and m orality p e r m i t t r be di.no on Sunday is not within our province to d e cid e.’’—Chief Ju s tic . Clark, supre m e c o u rt N o rth Caroline " I f th J S a b b a th d a y hs of God, it does not need legislation to uphold it. T h e r e is no power which can prevail a g a i n s t i t .

Give ua a fa ir field and no f a v o r and our faith has no cause to fear. C h rist w a n ts no help from C n u r . ” —Charles Spurgecn. ‘ 'Religious observances should not be e nforc e d by laws. If w j Christians c an do this, we should not deny th a t t h e J e w s may do it w ith Sa turday, or th e M shsm uie dans, if t h e r e were e nough o f them , with Friday. But t h a t would soon bo persecutio n for som ebody. T here should r a t h e r be a s e p a r a t io n of church and s t a te . . .
