Sunday Law Bills Defeated

The fifty-eighth Congress came to a close on March 4 without passing either of the pending bills enacting a Sunday law for the District of Columbia, and these bills are therefore dead. Any further move in this direction will require the introduction of new bills. We are confident that the large number of petitions against these bills sent in by our people has had a strong influence in checking this legislation. It is, of course, unnecessary to forward any more petitions, as Congress is no longer in session.
