day, as its last Congress has done; as
long a the different states allow
the running of both freight and passen-
ger cars, as long as secular newspapers
are allowed to pursue their avocation, as
on other days, publishing and selling their
papers for gain, it must be difficult. If
not impossible to influence the masses TO
maintain a decent respect for the Lord s
