labors of life.
II is the same old thing. Roosevelt
and Beveridge were the national repre-
sentatives OF all that Mrs. Keene and
the other sociological workers are busy
ing themselves about.
We can see in the matter Of child
labor legislation alone a popular dis
gust not only I'm this country, but in
Europe as well. Everywhere the child
labor laws are set at naught by poor
and rich Magistrates impose but nomi-
nal fines upon the few that are arrested.
and IL it were not for the spurts now and
then made by labor chiefs to show some
semblance OF earning salaries, the law
would be a dead letter throughout. These
laws are made by these busybody So
biologists with no regard TO popular opin-
ion. hence they are species OF class
legislation only
At the very same instant that the
press gives details OF the Frederick
conference the United States Bureau
OF Labor gives out a report on child
labor I'm Europe by DIR. c. w. A. Bed
litz, professor of sociology in George
Washington University. II corresponds
exactly with conditions here, and indi-
Gates that child labor legislation the
world over is breeding anarchists and
disrespect of law. The same can be
said in some measure or the compulsory
education law. which the soeiOlOgisIs
and socialists alike contend for.

Working or Not Pointed Out as

Editor The Washington Herald:
noted with interest your editorial on
Sunday Advertising in The Washington
Herald OF November 10. The decision Of
the Missouri Court OF Appeals against
the st. Louis Republic In IT'S attempt 10
collect charges for advertising, IL being
held that the advertising appeared in A
sunday newspaper" emphasizes anew
the necessity Of keeping religious mat
tiers entirely distinct from civil affairs.
The only equitable course for our gov
eminent 10 pursue is TO protect every
citizen tn the observance OF his religion
or nonreligion, so long as his behavior
Is consistent with civil law. This can
not be realized if any religious institu-
ton Is enforced by law.
Sunday is religious institution
Though II may be the day OF rest re-
speeted by a majority, stiH civil law
should not discriminate against any per-
son because he does not recognize this
day as above other days.
There Is before Congress the Johnston
District Sunday bin If this hin is
passed and enforced, Inconsistencies wiz
doubtless be seen similar TO the ones
mentioned in your editorial 1t surely is
NOT consistent with justice 20 free a man
Iromf paying debt merely because IL
was incurred on a particular dav ~ the
week. From civil standpoint II Is no
more crime TO set type or print ON
Sunday than on Wednesday or any other
day Of the week. The only ground upon
which Sunday can lie specifically recog-
nized Is its supposed sanctlty But the
moment II Is admitted that a religious
end is sought. that instant Il is plaeed
outside the sphere Of civil law. ana All
Idea OF force should be dropped. Coer-
cion is outside legitimate Christian eff
fort.
We are in favor Of resting on the dav
set apart by the Creator, and would he
gratified 10 see all observe il. bur We
have yet failed TO discover any divine
authority giving any man, state or ma
ton the sanction of heaven in forcing
by human enactment, mans duties to
God
If Sunday is TO be merely a "cfviT' rest
day, as some claim. then it should stand
on a par with national holidays. as
Fourth of July and Christmas, giving
every person the privilege Of working
or not, as he sees fit c. Z. HOLMES.

Accomplish Nations Good.
Editor The Washington Herald:
Now that the Infant industries" of the
United States have passed the incubator
period ard have become, many OF them,
very husky youngsters (even able to
travel 10 Washington without a chap
eron), It would appear the time is ripe for
the people TO begin an aggressive era OF
effective popular government OF the peo-
pie. in order to protect adequately their
own Infant interests"
The demand OF the people for that
equal opportunity. too long denied them,
for a just share in the distribution or the
increment of prosperity stands forth to
day as the great pregnant Issue Of the
country.
Democracy and Repubicanism are now
meaningless alliteratiOn-the sum OF the
product OF whose tTusteeship is repre-
scented by any such results. Success re-
mains the measure OF ability, and failure
TO obtain good results cannot be made
sweet under any name"
Virile, progressive. patriotic citizenship

monte. political. and moral Righteousness
Which, nTmiy planted IN the fortress OF

BUSINESS DONE ON SUNDAY.
Would Hold Men Responsible for
Acts on Any Day.

Editor The Washington Herald
/ was pleased to note in your issue 81
November IS. your comments upon the
decision of the Missouri Court OF Appeals
against the St Louis Republic, in its at
tempt 10 collect charges for advertising
done on Sunday. This decision empha-
sizes some Of the evils and inconsistent
cies OF allowing laws 10 remain upon our
statute books which properly have no
place there The Inconsistency in this in
stance. 1t appears to me. lies not so much
in the decision OF the court, as in the law
which seemed 10 warrant or call for such
a de%sion for the Sunday law OF Mis-
souff very plainly makes ordinary labor
on Sunday illegal 1t defines il TO be "a
misdemeanor." The only alternative
within the bounds of law would have
been for the court to declare the law
unconstitutional.
As you pointed out. the logic OF this
decision would naturally lead To the con-
clusion that men are not to be held re-
sponsible for what they do, or for what
they contract 10 have done on Sunday.
For my own part, / have never been
able 10 see why, from a civil standpoint,
honest labor, business, or trade on any
day should be treated by the State as a
crime, or why contract made on Sun
day should be void. Are men not as re-
sponsible for their acts on Sunday as.
on other DAYS OF the week? Such a view,
and especially if upheld by the courts.
would naturally encourage trickery. ras-
cality. and crime on that day. Would
We think of freeing one guilty OF muir
der theft assault or arson sirnDlV he
cause the act in question was committed
on Sunday? Why. then. should one who
signs a contract on Sunday, or engages a
certain work to be performed on that day
be freed from the responsibility naturally
accompanying such acts? Let Sunday be
a dies non 10 those who wish 20 do moth
ing on that day: but surely the State
cannot afford to discriminate between
days of the week. and treat men as non
compos mentis one day in each week.
Laws which involve the State in such an
inconsistency should be repealed.
Unless demented, a man should be held
responsible for whatever he does o. his
own free will, whenever done. Sunday
laws are relics of ecclesiastical estab-
lishments and remnants OF those by-gone
days when church and state were wed.
Rightfuly they have no place upon our
statute books
A plain application OF the American
and Christian principle OF separation of
church and state would repeal every one
Of them. And the country, and religion
itself. would be none the worse of as the
result Genuine religion needs not the
support OF temporal power. Faith. not

with Much Ceremony.
From the Chicago Daily News
On account Of the cholera, the authori-
ties Of Naples, where the inhabitants
practically live on fruit and vegetables
during summer, prohibited the eharac-
teristie feast of Pedigrotta. festival OF
the Virgin. It was originally a pagan
rite resembling the satuFnalia, but since
1853 it has been celebrated with great
masnifeenee IN memory Of the victory of
Charles III over the Austrians at Vel
letri in 1874.
This feast. which was formerly the
greatest in Naples, has now become
chiefly night affair." celebrated in an
uproarious manner in and around the
grotto OF Posilipo.
The project OF Naples ordered all the
wine shops TO be closed during the night
and strong detachments of police and
soldiers We're stationed TO dispense the
crowds in case the Neapolitans, unheed-
ing the prohibition. assembled near the
grotto OF Posilipo The precautions taken
were, however, useless, as the order OF
the project was implicitly obeyed and the
feast was not celebrated.
But the Neapoiitans were not TO be de-
prived Of their annual merrymaking, and
Instead of the usual pageants which
characterized the festival they organized
a novel show, thus incidentally institute
ing a new annual festival Following the
example OF Paris. the Neapolitans every
year select her queen of the sea. The
election is undertaken according TO GER
tain rules and is quite impartial
Twelve candidates. one from each dis
trict of the city, are selected and the
prettiest one among them is elected
queen, while all the others are appointed

claimed and crowned with great deal

honor. she parades the streets, presides
at banquet, and attends festival or
ganized for the OCCASION: finally she
takes part in a great parade on the sea

the queen OF the sea were substituted for

OF Genoa and the queen OF Paris. attend
