1t might be proper for an ecclesi-
astical council. to give considera-
ton to such matters, but the
function of the State is not eccle-
siastical, but purely civil. Re-
ligion is a thing of the heart. 1t
is the personal relation between
man and his Creator, and for it
we are amenable nowhere, except
at the tribunal of the Universal
Judge. Because, therefore, Sun
day is an institution of the church,
not of the State, and its observ-
ance is a religious act, Congress
can never rightfully pass any law
regulating its observance.
To parry the force of this, how
ever, the claim is advanced that
Sunday is not a religious but a
civil institution; and, asthe State
should deal with civil matters, it
should regulate the observance of
the day.
But if Sunday is a civil institu-
ton, why should it's observance be
made compulsoryY We have holi
days which are purely civil institu-
tions; for example, Washington S
birthday, the Fourth of July, and
other legal holidays. But who ever
heard of the observance of these
days being made compulsory ?
When has a bill ever been intro
duced into any national or state
Legislature specifying how these
days should be observed and clos
ing up all shops and business
houses and places of recreation,
under penalty of civil lawY All
would resent such a step and deem
it tyrannical. But if Sunday is a
civil institution, it is merely a
holiday, and should be dealt with
the same as other holidays.
Upon which ever horn of this di-
lemma so-called National Reform
ers impale themselves, it is equally
fatal to<their theory. and empha-
sizes the truth that Legislation con-
cerning Sunday is not within the
province of the State.

If Sunday is religious institu-

properly have anything to say as

Several men were arrested last

shops open on Sunday in violation
of an ordinance Of the city.
There is no legal grounds upon
which you can force man to
close his shop on Sunday. Such a
