the desire to play on Sunday. A
greater crowd can be had ther
than on a week day. 1t is al
bottom a mere money making
enterprise.
| When the matter was up in
the legislature the advocates of
Sunday ball playing talked about
the beauty of affording young
men an opportunity to take ex-
ercise on Sunday afternoon
They well knew that a few hired
players take all the exercise.
Why are Christian people op-
posed to the Sunday ball playing?
For two capital reasons, to-wit::
It is a desecration of the Lords
day, and it interferes with the
privilege of social worship.
What must Christian people do
in case the bill now pending be-
cones a law? They ought not to
patronize the playing, but keep
aloof from the spectacle. If the
church people of Greenvillewould
keep away from the base ball
playing on Sunday it would have
a happy effect.
The afternoon religious service
should not be given up on ac-
count of the base ball playing.
Worship is more important on
Sunday and should not give way
to mere sport.
In conclusion, let Christians
keep up their courage. Chris
tian common sense will triumph
eventually. Sunday base ball
may have a vogue for a time, but
the immortal Fourth Command
ment will be vindicated in the
future. and before long.

Democratic Ways and Means
committee of the House had not
contemplated much more than a
revision of the wool and cotton
schedules, but owing to their
successes this week, they realize
that they have time for addition

wood, chairman of the commit

session will be completed earlier
than has been anticipated. It is
expected that the Ways and
Means committee will take up
the woolen schedule of the tariff
bill without waiting for the re-
port of the tariff board, inasmuch
as it is understood that this board
will not be able to furnish infor-
nation concerning the woolen

Washington Notes.

Washington, April Il
The special session of Congress
in it's second week has taken VI
its legislative work with grea
vigor and the Democrats are en-
couraged to believe that mucl
work will be accomplished dur
ing the legislative session. By
a vote of 296 to 16 the bill pro.
posing Constitutional amend.
ment providing for the direct e
lection of United States senators
was passed. Only one Democrat
opposed the measure. The other
fifteen voting against it were
Republicans. The Canadian rec
iprocity bill has also been favor
ably reported. Mr., Underwood,
chairman of the Ways and Means
committee, announced that the
free list tariff measure will be
reported before the end of the
week. Among important bills
introduced was one to regulate
the traffic in cold storage prod
ucts, another to increase the pres
tige of the American merchant
marine, a third to regulate the
issuance of injunctions and an
other bill to change the date of
the Inauguration of the president
to the last Thursday in April.
This last bill has often been up
in Congress and it is an effort to
extend the term of the short ses-
sion and to fix the date of inaug-
uration which has become a ma
tional pageant, attracting hun
dreds of thousands of people, to
a time of year Of fairer weather
than the proverbially cold and
stormy 4th of March. It is prob
able that before this is in print
the Canadian reciprocity meas
ure will have passed the House.
The Democratic leaders have full
ly decided to go into the agricul-
tural schedule and make import
ant changes which they demand
ed during the tariff discussions
of last year. Other schedules
not included in the general leg
islative program it is expected
will be brought before the House
during this month. The
of the House in passing
the bill providing for the popu-
lar election of senators has had
an exhilarating influence on the
minds of the majority leaders,
and they are hopeful that much
important legislation may be en-
acted.

BY LEO.


ment once more-shortening it
or rather, to be perfectly accur
ate, making law allowing towl
and city councils to license bas'
ball playing on Sunday after
moons. Moses wrote, Remem
ber the Sabbath day to keep II
holy" but our solons authorize
the city councils to say to young
people, take the afternoon for
sports.''
Nobody claims that playing
ball on Sunday is keeping it holy.
There is nothing sacred about
ball playing. It may be a whole
some exercise at the proper time
and place, but there is nothing
sacred or religious about it. And
snce if the law authorizes ball
playing on Sunday it alters the
Fourth Commandment. Had we
not better hold on to the CON-
mandment as it stands in the
decalogue?
The bill has passed in both
houses and all it needs to make
it a law is the signature OF the
governor. Will he sign it? He
vetoed a bill of nearly the same
import last year, and may veto
this bill. But some say that ne
has promised to sign it, there is
such a great demand for Sunday
sports. Well, let him sign it. It
will not make him president in
, 1912, There is a demand for a
quiet Sunday, too, and millions
of Christians will resent the in
fringement of the sacred day.
At the morning service the
minister reads, Remember the
Sabbath day to keep it holy" the
people respond, Lord have mer-
cy on us, and help us to keep
this law" Well done. Now af-
ter that prayer can people go out
in the afternoon to play ball?
They do that way in Spain. The
Mass in the morning, in the af-
ternoon the bull fight.
Is that keeping the day holy?
But they say there are no church
services in the afternoon. Yes
there are. The Catholic church
has Vesper at two o'clock in the
afternoon. The Protestant Epis-
copal church holds it's services at
four o'clock, and there are often
services held in the other chur-
ches in the afternoon. And, of
course, a game of base ball play
ed in the afternoon will act in
juriously on all such meetings of
the church people.
Why do they want to play ball
on Sunday? Oh, they need ex-
ercise! That is the plea. Who
gets the exercise? Certainly not
the crowd of spectators. They
simply look on. The exercise is
enjoyed by a very few young
men who are paid wages for their
playing. It is not playing for
exercise, it is working for wag-
es, the same as selling goods
during the week.
Where does the money come
from? It.comes from the pock-
cts of the spectators. Everyone
pays an admission fee at the gate,

sion. The possible revision o
this schedule came up in the Sen
ate on Thursday, when Senator
Warren, whom the late Senator
Dolliver characterized as tn {
greatest shepherd since Abra
ham,, offered a number of pro.
tests and memorials deprecating
revision of the wool schedule.
The Wyoming senator represents
a wool-growing state, but he said
that these memorials do not pro-
test against ultimate revision,
but simply prayed Congress to
defer action until proper infor-
nation could be received as a ba-

Senator Cummins has opened a
long expected attack on the some
what dilatory national monetary
commission, that refuge of lame
ducks, as it has been called.
The Iowa senator introduced a
bill requiring this commission to
present its final report at the be-
ginning of the next session in
December, and this bill provides
for the repeal of the law creating
the commission and removing it
from the payroll as soon as its
report is submitted. The COM
it will be remembered,
consists of eighteen members.
Seven of them no longer draw
their salaries as senators and two
of them were former members
of the House of Representatives.
This is why it is called the lame
duck" refuge. To some of them,
like Senators Aldrich and Hale,
the salary which they draw as
members of the monetary COM
mission is matter of no great i'm
portance, but the others who
draw the same salary as a men,
Der of Congress are Burrows,
Teller, Money, Flint and Talia-
ferro. This commission was or
ganized in 1908. Senator Cum
nins says that he believes it is
time definite financial plan
should be submitted to Congress,
hat he is not opposed to any of
the members of the committee,
but that he thought sufficient
time had elapsed for positive re-
suits.
