The one thing Champ Clark and his folloWers expected to point to with pride next vear was the campaign publicity bill, which is discovered to be far less effective than, aker or the country supposed Attention is called to the fact that Champ Clark told the country in his Quiney speech, attacking the adminis- iration, that this publicity law would be ome of the pillars on which the democrats would lean for chief sup- port in 1% ie very next day after he had lauded the act as one of the gPeat popular achievements: ,of the democratic house mujority, Senator Martin and Swanson of Virginia filed their expense uccounts, at the same thme announcing that the new law did not actually require the publicity of such acconnts andidates for the house or senate Inquiry is being made now who got in the work which really makes the Jaw non-yffective at the point at which it was supp to bear hardest. It is mot known vet whether this is the fruit of stupldity or duplicity. This revélation must annoy the speaker, THE WRATHY INSURGENTS. Presidens Taft has deeply gratified the old-line republican forces by the courageous consistency with which he has stuck to his original policy that the extra session should attend aply 10 the business of acting vpon the reciprocity pact, deferring other legis- lation affecting the tariff until thelre- port of the tariff commission at the next regular fon. The president is showinz no hesitation in geing be- fore the coumtry to champion and vin- dicate his policy As was to be ex- pected, he has incurred the resentment of the ihsurgent or progressive wing of the party whose votes his friends in congress charzed were too often st with the democrats to help them put the president in a hole.” The insurgents are naturally ~ery much exercised by their failure to produce the effect upon the country Shi b they had hoped to.

The first day of the week which man has taken the liberty to call the Chris- tians’ Sabbath is nothing but a pagan holiday. It is purely of pagan origin. It was a day set apart by pagan Rome | for the worship of their God of the Sun, from which , Sunday takes its name. It is a doctrine which has come { back from the gloomy _regions of heathen mythology over into the pre- cincts of Christianity, and _claiming the positive authority of Christ and is ‘apostles. “Thé sooner that this heathen mythology is separated from Christianity, instead of being defend- ed, the soomer the truth will be known. Sunday is all right if we keop it for what it is, not for what some people by misrepresentation would make it. It is a day set apart by man for re- ligious services, and commemorating the resurrection of Christ. This is a fact that anybody - can defend. But that it is a Sabbath day of divine ap- pointment and a day of restricted lib- erty and freedom, is a fact that mo-| body can successfullyefend. The Mosalc Sabbath was of cere- monial,’ not of moral obligation, and was_ therefore abolished by the coming of Christ, and, according to Col, 2: 14, was nailed to the cross. No other Sabbath was ever appointed or kept by Christ or His disciples. Sabbath keeping and Sabbath break- {ing belongs wholly to the oid dispen- sation. It forms no part of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, or the teachings of e | the apostles. Although Christians should not forsake to assemble them- selves together, they should not regard one day more sacred thar. arother. The first restriction of the people's righis on che firsg day of the week was Forced To Leave Home.
