Mans Law Must be obeyed.

A Seventh Day Adventist in Mem
phis, TENN, having been sentenced to
pay a fine for having plowed his field
On Sunday, the case was appealed to
the Supreme Court of the United States,
the appellant %cOntending that the SEN
tence was In violation of the State Bill
of Rights, and also of the Federal Con-
stitutiOn. The Supreme Court has,
nevertheless, affirmed the decision of
the lower Court.
III reaching Il decision the Federal
Court did not go into the intrinsic ques-
tion of morality nor into the cOnstitu-
tionality of Sabbath laws. 1t simply de-
termined that man having set apart a
certain day in the week for rest, and
having done so by law, such law must
be obeyed rs mans law if not as Gods
law; in other words, that as the de-
PENDANT was duly convicted under Ten
nessee law, it was not within the pro-
vince of the Federal Court to review
the case.
Ii has recent been found out that
six days is not enough for farmers TO
work in this vicinity, and some gather
their crops on the Sabbath. The above
decision shows that Sunday laboreIs
are subject TO u tiue for violating the
law.
