PASTORS, PROTESTS
Against Sunday Concerts for the

At a meeting OF tho pastors of tho city, held
at the Congregational Church Friday after.

Ing preamble and resolutions were adopted;
Whereas the observance of the flrst day OF
the week as dav OF rest OF man and beast, as
day devoted to tho public worship of Him
who is the Lord OF the day and to the teaching
OF our children In religious things, is an instl-
tuition Of Christianity to which this Nation
owes much Of Its material, moral and religious
prosperity; and whereas the violation of
this day, rs had been suggested In the
public prints as probable, by giving So
called sacred concerts on tho evening of the
Lords day, November 26, In connection with
the Garfield Monument Fair, would have been
an afrront TO Christian people all over the
land and an insult to the memory of the hon
ored dead, who was once Christian minister
and always faithful observer Of this day;
therefore,
Resoired, That we, the Protestant Christian
ministers of the District, express our hearty
satisfaction with tho action OF the gentlemen
having this matter In charge, and especially
with tho resolution OF Commissioner West, by
which they have determined not to entertain
any such proposition; but have commended
