VIII be literally patronized by our citizens
The ministers and members of the yar1-
Gus churches of the city are circulating a
petition TO be laid before the Worlds fair
authorities at Chicago, requesting that the
fair be closed on Sunday. 1t is but fair to
presume that the petition will be signed
largely by church-going people 1t would
be no difficulty, however to obtain five
signatures to one among the people in
general in favor of keeping the exposition
open on Sunday. 1t is probable that the
Secular union will present petitions on the
other side, and the directors of the exposi-
ton will no doubt worry themselves in
deciding between them
