SUNDAY AND THE WORLDS FAIR.
The debate on the Sunday closing Of the
Exposition proceeded with q good deal Of
tediOusness and repetition as compared with
the breezy discussion of yesterday.
Mr. Colquitt (Dem.. Ca said he had re-
joiced % hear senators on the Democratic
side of the House speak in favor OF the
sanctity OF Sabbath, because he did not be-
lieYe that on every question OF religion and
morality the Republicans stood on one side
and the Democrats on the other. When q SEN
ator with the genius and fertility of resource
of his friend the Senator from Alabama
Mr.. Morgan was reduced 10 the platitudes
Of saloon keeper the harlOts and the drunk
ards of this country by claiming that the
pending motion TO close this Exposition on
the Sabbath was q union OF Churen and
State. the question WAS indeed poverty
stricken.
When talking Of liberty some CONSIDERATION
was due TO the eleven millions OF protesting
Christians who desired 10 have their Sabbath
undisturbed. They had some rights, some
Liberties which should be respected.
Mr. Colquitt quoted at length Sere Hyacinth
and one OF his sentiments that trained IN
tellect without Christianity was akin to oar-
barism was spplsuded from the galleries:
Mr. Hscock (Rep. n. y warned those
who had this matter IN charge that opposi-
ton 10 the amendment for closing the world
Fair on Sunday carried more peril to the APP
preparation than IL could encounter from any
other cause whatever
Mr. Morgan charged that this whole move
ment had a political object. and was being
worked for political end. IL had been orig-
mated in a Republican State 10y one of the
most astute politicians ia the United States

New York Mr.. Hlscock). already threaten
ing what the Democratic House might do.and

and yet IL never occurred TO the Senator from
Georgia Mr. Colquittl 10 oh cot. because there
were no politics in 1t. But now that polit-
cal trump card was lead out the Church cried
Amen cad on and we will follow you.
Mr. Daniel (Dem.. Va advocated leaving
this matter TO the commission appointed by
the Government of the United States and To
the State of Illinois to settle.
Mr.. Allison made another attempt 70 OBTAIN

that the bill be taken up the hrst tnlng to-
