The crime OF idItng away Satur'
day, and Saturday evening. Is one
that ought to be eliminated from
the farming industry, for It spells
ruin for the crops. If 1t rains
every day In the week, and pre-
vents work In the fields, and Sat
urday Is bright and beautiful, not
tone lick will be struck" Before
the Confederate war, 1t Is said,
planters usually allowed their
slaves to quit work In the fields
Saturday evening, to wash their
clothing, and cultivate their gar.
dens and patches. and 1t was really
the busiest and happiest day of the
week with them. From this Gus
tom has grown the mOnstrous evil
of perfect idleness on Saturday
among negroes and ignorant white
people.
A negro preacher was indignant
ly repudiated EY his congregation
because he delivered q sermon tell.
ing them to "rest only on the Sab
bath" He assured them the third
commandment stipulated emphali
cally that six davS Shalt thou
labor, moi MAyRsT thon LABOR. and
that the command 10 work. those
six days, was quite as imperative
as to rest on the seventh.
A dear, Christian woman told
me her cook saw her pulling up
few weeds among her roses Sun
day morning. and said to her.
"Miss Allie dats why you don't
have no more luck wild your flow
ers, de Bible say yOu must not
work on de Sabbath" The lady
restraining an indignant reply
said, "Susau / plant my flowers
for the glory of God, and He
makes them grow on Sunday and
understands why ! care for them
on that day too" The only one
of the ten commandments, scrupu'
Iously observed by the brother Ii
black, is perfect abstinence of any
kind of useful employment on Sun
day. Idleness adds nothing to the
glory of God. The command tc
rest on the seventh day was given
exclusively for the benefit Of man.
Industrious people would have
worked their employees to death
ii there had nNt been q law com
pelling them to rest at intervals,
and the mystical number sever
was that interval. During the
French Revolution. when in6del!
tried to wreck everything that was
sacred, the TENTH day was OF
dained as a day of rest. 1t was
found inadequate to meet natures
requirements, laboreTs could moi
stand the strain of constant efort
for nine days. BARRIERS caunOI
keep an edge on their razors unless
they give them an occasional rest.
And If steel requires this rest, how
much more necessary It Is for fiest
and blood 7
There Is nothing though inner
emily sinful iu labor even on th'
Sabbath. We do believe that II I
farmer was grievously sick In thl
harvest season, and there was nj
other way to do It, that 1t wOuI'
be more pleasing to God for th
mans neighbors to unite and gath
er and save his crops of cotton
and corn and potatoes on Sunday
than to see him and bis famishln
family destroyed. We believe tbs
good work Is holy. that work
the finest and highest type of 7.

in Northern Mexico, within a few
days. 1t became known tonight that
under direction of Gen. Villa and his
lleutenants, copies of the peace appeal
have been printed at Jaurez and Chi
huahua for distribution.
Another indication of the Carranza
factions opposition to any outside in
terference into Mexican affairs was
contained in dispatches made public
py Villas Washington agent from
Jesus Acuna, minister Of foreign af-
fairs at Vera Cruz quoting a state
ment to newspaper men in Mexico
City last night by Gen. Pablo Con.
zales. the Carranza commandant. Gen.

An interesting development today

AN EXPORT DUTY
SSA/ HATS the Constitution
" among frieods?" This was

Wkx/ HATS the Constitution
w among friends!" This was
'Congressman Tim Campbell's demand
|of President Grover Cleveland: and
it evidently remains - sound demo-
cratic doctrine to this day. For now
We have the proposition advanced
seriously In high democratic quarters
that the straitsaed treasury shall be
relieved BY . special war revenue tax
directed against the manufactured
war munitions which the country 10
producing in such large quantities.
In effect, this IL an export duty.
such ~ the constitution forbids. Yet
amsnE the arguments advanced In
support OF 1t h that the tax would be
easy to collect because shipments Of
munitions would be cleared at Gus
toms ports and would be recorded. in
in ships papers.
The devices which the administra-
tion contemplates using to hide the
disasters which its policies have
brought to the treasury are numer-
Gus and ingenious; and the legisla-
ton already enacted to secure relief
Is scarcely less 20. But thus far the
has not been violated to
make politicai capital for . bankrupt
political party. We doubt n II Ayer
will be.
