1T is not supposed that Presidential procla-
nation was necessary to have us come out pub
hcly with displays of these purely providen-
tlal blessings. 1t is extremely doubtful whether
the President of the United States or the Gov
ernor Of any Of the confederated states has the
right to issue such a proclamation That
matter should be left to churches, charitable
societies and kindred organizations Govern
ments Of all kinds should refuse to have any
connection whatsoever with pious observan-
ces.
With us, the State has to be absolutely sep
arated from the Church, each has to work in
Its appointed sphere, each has to be assigned
a different orbit and has to rule therein with
whatever glory is attainable. So far have
we departed from the spirit of our constitu-
ton upon which our Republic was built, we
now have the President, the Cabinet and the
Supreme Court attending the paganist cere-

DIR Sanford seemed Inclined 10 agree

not thIBk IL necessary 10 close schools

DR. Hubbard bad never heard Of
such strict quarantine for measles
and asked the general practice under

adopted like drastic measures APP
