The saloon-keepers of New Or
leans have organized to fight the
Sunday law and the law abiding peo-
of that city are combining forces to
establishing the supremacy of the
law. The Sunday law-is so unpopu-
lar that it is almost impossible to
enforce it in some parts of the
State. A statute giving each parish
the right to adopt Sunday law
would be eminently fair. If the
good folks of the pine woods of
Sabine wish to have . Sunday law
we are sure the people of Lafayette
or ST. Martin would not, if they
could, deny them that pleasure, and
on the other hand we can not con-
ceive for what reason our austere
friends would care to force us to be
good by law. 1t is true we are
wicked. But then it is not in our
nature to be good. We can not
for the life of us see wherein it is
sinful to- have little fun on Sunday.

A few days ago that broad
minded journal, The Times-Demo-
crat, commented upon fresh case
of religious persecution reported
from Monroe county, Miss. With
few more papers like the I'D. re-
ligious fanaticism and puritanism
would soon be at a discount in this
country. It never misses an ap-
portunity to speak words of con-
demnation of the fanatics work,
thereby calling the attention of
fair-minded people to the outrages
which are committed in the
sacred names of religion and of law.
The following is the special which
called forth the timely editorial
from The Times-Democrat:
.sAberdeen, Miss, May 49,
Mr.. John Nash, Seventh-Day Ad-
ventist, was yesterday arraigned in
Justice Rye's court, at Amory, in
this (Monroe) county, on the
charge of working in his field on
Sunday. Nash pleaded guilty and
undertook the management of his
own case, using the Bible for his
law book. He keeps Saturday as
religiously as priest keeps Sunday.
The case was continued until the
second Saturday in June.
s'The Mississippi statute bearing
upon the subject, in section 1891,
provides that .sAny one who shall
labor on the Sabbath day at any
other than household duties, works
of necessity or charity, OF an rail-
roads or steamboats,, shall, on con-
viction, be fined not more than $40
for every such offerlse."
BY working in his field on Sunday
John Nash has invited the deadly
enmity Of few sanctimonious fools
who have peculiar style of serving
the Lord. It will hardly meet with
the approval of sensible people who
are Christians at heart as we'll as in
name. If the Seventh-Day Adven-
lists choose to keep Saturday as the
Sabbath and do their farm work on
Sunday, in what way do they inter-
fere with the rights of the other
creeds? Things have reached a
pretty pass when man can not hoe
his corn or plant peanuts on Sun
day without being dragged before
the courts as common criminal by
lot of religious cranks.
We do not know any of the peo-
who are prosecuting the Seventh
Day Adventists in Mississippi; but
we will venture to say that they
have not half as much religion as
the victims of their hell-born
hatred. The man who presecutes
his neighbor on account of religion
is more dangerous than the anar-
chist. The latter is an open enemy
to society and is an outlaw, while
the former pretends to be meek
follower of Christ when in reality
he is an emissary of the devil.

Intelmperance and the Catholic
Church.
Rev. James NJ. Clcary.
During the past twentyone years
the Catholic Total Abstinence I'm
ion of America has done noble and
heroic work in the cause of sobriety
and public decency. But with our
ten millions. of Catholics, this grand
association should number instead
of sixty thousand, six hundred thou
sand members. If our church coun-
CHS are to be needed, if the utter
ances of the sovereign Pontiff are to
be respected, If we will not turn
deaf ear to the repeated appeals of
our best and wisest prelates, there
must be a new awakening among olu
Catholic people against the wither-
ing curse of drink.
Our Catholic people expect too
much from the church if they enter
tain the delusive notion that the
church can save weak men f{Qm
ruin while her own children, by
their voices or their ballots, do not
occasion of sin. There is not much
crees and admonitions of our church
councils in theory, and in practical
life Withholding our support from
the influences that make for the re-
alizatlon of what the church incul
Gates.
The church, by the united voice
of our bishops. assembled in the
third plenary council of Baltimore,
warns it's members against the
dangers of the drink habit and the
temptations of the saloon. The
same council warns our Catholic
people against the business of sa-
loon keeping as San unbecoming
way Of making a living" A man
cannot be good Catholic, loyal
follower of the teachings of the
church of this country, and be a
good friend of the saloon. Much
less can a Catholic be saloon
keeper and dutiful child of the
church. We should at least have
the courage to follow wkere our
chief pastors lead, and our Catho-
lie loyalty is not above supicion if
we are not as ready to condemn the
drink evils as our bishops. who
have been placed over us :to rule
! the church of Cod"
The drink curse shields itself be-
hind false theories of science, and
many have been deluded by the
| false notion that alcohol is benc-
fetal to health. Forty-four states
of this union have by law made the
teaching of true principles of tenn
! perance compulsory in our common
schools. Too. much importance
cannot be attached to the practice
of intoxicating habits of total alb
stinence among children and our
boys and girls during the danger
| Gus and trying period of youth.
If our prelates, priests and people
! join hands together to work in har-
mony and strenth for the realization
, of the adm onitions of our plenary
councils, the awful curse of intern
perancc can be almost entirely
, eradicated from among us. We
must encourage, then, our total abb
stinence societies by every means
at our command. We priests,
