Oklahoma Court Upholds Sabbath Freedom

ELDER C. S. LONGACRE, Secretary of the Religious Liberty Department, has received a telegram stating that the Supreme Court of the State of Oklahoma has just handed down a favorable decision in the cases of our brethren who were prosecuted before a lower court for violating the Sunday laws. In so doing the highest court of the State reversed the decision of the lower court, and exempted our people from the obligation of observing Sunday when they have observed the seventh day as the Sabbath. We should praise God for this decision in behalf of religious liberty.
