Sunday Laws VS.. Prohibition.

Editor The Washington Herald:
To many strange incongruity was pre-
scented at the recent mass meeting pro-
testing against the enactment Of Sunday
laws. while at the same time favoring
the prohibition Of the liquor traffic. and
also at the hearing before the District
Commissioners, when practically the
same thing occurred. The principles. as
view them. in the two issues are not iden-
teal. consequently I may he entirely
consistent IN my opposition to the one
while indorsing the other
The question Of the enactment of laws
regulating the observance Of Sunday is
one purely religious in its character, and
as the American form of civil govern
ment denies the right of the state to
legislate either in favor of or against
religion or religious institutions. Sunday
laws are entirely outside of the realm
Of civil government. Loyalty 70 the
American principle of civil government
of necessity means opposition to all Sun
day laws. or any other law dealing with
religious questions. Should il be proper
for the state 10 legislate upon religious
questions, then there exists no ground
for opposition. As an observer Of the
seventh day 1 am opposed to Sunday leg
islation, not because 1 am a disbeliever in
Sunday sacredness, for I grant TO every
one the right to believe and practice as
he pleases on the question of days. but
because such legislation is outside the
province OF civil government.
l am a believer in the right of the
state to prohibit the manufacture and
sal of
majority of the people decide in favor of
prohibition. The state has not the right.
in my opinion. to prohibit the Individual
citizen from drinking whisky or similar
drinks. any more than II has the right
10 prohibit his use of tea. coffee, or any
other narcotic. Should he wish to pur-
chase rye and convert il into alchohol
for his personal use, l grant he has that
right But the state has the right TO
regulate business. as is evidenced by
laws controlling the sale of pOisOns by
druggists. the sale OF adulterated foods,
&c The manufacture and sale of in
toxicating drinks is a question OF BUSH
ness. question OF economics. and there
fore properly comes within the province
OF civil government
Laws against murder. theft. or other
wrongs are not laws against personal
liberty ever though a few might so re-
gard them, To spend Sunday in honest
toll or in the enjoyment of Gods great
outdoors, can never be violation of the
rights OF any one: but to prohibit labor
and innocent amusement, as the bills
now before Congress propose TO do. is
an invasion of the rights of men. making
labor and amusement criminal. Civil gov
eminent has been instituted. not to create
crime but tc eliminate Il; Sunday laws
II disobeyed, make criminals out of hon
est men. therefore they have no right on
our statute books. and should be abol-
ished. Labor organizations. notably the
Typographical Union, have secured a
shorter working day for their members
without an appeal to the state for special
legislation: why can they not secure for

The following prescription for the
cure of rheumatism and kidney and

filled millions of times, viz. Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one half ounce /;
Compound Kargon, one ounce Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three oun-
ces. These simple, harmless ingre-
dients can be obtained at any good
prescription pharmacy at little cost
and are mixed by shaking well in n
bottle.
The dose for adults is teaspoon
ful after each meal and at bedtime.
drinking full tumblerful of water
after each dose. 1t is stated that
this prescription is a positive remedy
or kidney trouble and lame back,
weak bladder and urinary difficult
les, especially of the elderly people
and one of the best things to be used
in rheumatic afflict ons, relieving the
aches and pains and reducing swell
ings.
A well.kuown authority states that
this mixture acts directly upon the
eliminative tissues of the kidneys !;
cleanses these spongelike oragns and
gives them power to sift and strain
the poisonous waste matter and uric
acid from the blood which is the cause
of rheumatism.
If yorr back or sides ache and you
suspect kidney trouble 1t would be
wise to try this for II few DAYS.
