quiet necessary to their religious
liberty. They are not enacted to in
terfere with the right of conscience
nor to prefer any religious establish
ment. They are secular regulations
for the public peace and welfare.
It will be found that the people who
are fined for Sunday working are not
interfered with at all in their Satur-
day Sabbath worship. But they bring
trouble upon themselves by defantly
and oStentatiously working on Sun
day. in violation of a statute or ordi-
nance framed for general obedience.
And also that they pose as martyrs,
by refusing to pay a fine or even the
costs of proceedings, thai it may be
made to appear as though they were
prosecuted for religious opinion and
worship, when they are merely prose-
cuted for breaking law that is bind
ing upon all citizens alike.
If Sunday laws are bad they should
be repealed. If they are unconstitu-
tional they are void. We do not be-
neve they are either. They are
founded in the wisdom which recog-
nizes periodical rest as a, human neces-
sity or at least a human advantage,
and in the need of protecting the en-
ployed against the power of employers,
which without such restriction would
in numerous cases be exercised until
there would be no cessation for the
laborer from perpetual toll
When the Seventh-day Adventists
get to fully understand this matter,
it would seem that their good sense
would restrain them from making
themselves conspicuous by Sunday
working. when they will find that
their Saturday worship will not be in
terfered with. and there will be no
special effort TO catch them in their
violation of the Sunday laws and regC-
lations. Much of the sympathy felt
for those who are aching to make
themselves notable as martyrs is ut
terly needless and wasted.

The mastery speech of Delegate f.
S. Richards on the right side of the
equal suffrage question is too good to
be left in the comparative obscurity of
a synopsis. 1t will appear in full in
Mondays issue of The Herald, hav-

men and women on political equality
in the State.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-03-31

The reasoning that is against wo-
man suffrage because some woman
who iectured il dts favor was not a
good housewife and has now got a di-
vorce, is quite worthy of the opponents
of justice and equal rights. 1t shows
the mental calibre of the delegate who
used it and the hearers who applauaed
II. 1t is so utterly silly that it needs
no argument against it! And yet it
is about as strong as any of the
strong reasons" used by the anti-suf-
fragists.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-03-31

Neither the Democratic party nor the
convention want to lose Delegate B.
II. Roberts. He has right to his
views; they are entertained by many
great men and some good women, and
though we are sure he is mistaken on
the suffrage question we are equally
sure that he is sincere and should
neither be muzzled nor retired The
people of Davis county are honored in
tkeir representative in the convention
strd this one spot in the sun Of his
glory should not render him obnoxious
in their sight. Roberts should remain
and hold TO his convictions, too. until
ne is converted, when he viii
strengthen his brethren"

Eevry member of the Convention
should be protected in the right of
free speech. and no man should be
condemned for the fair expression Of
his sincere convictions. Freedom of
speech and of the press is guaran-
teed in the Constitution now in pro-
eraSs
