“American State Papers”

“ALL constraint except what wisdom lays on evil men, is evil.” Are the readers of the REVIEW fully aware of the strenuous efforts that are being put forth at the present time to place constraint, not upon evil men, but upon those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus,—men and women who believe in law and order, but who do not believe in the interference of the civil power in matters pertaining to our relation to God?
The “American State Papers” gives a history of the Sunday-law movement in this country from the very first colonial Sunday law, which contained in it a death penalty for non-attendance at worship on Sunday morning, down through the history of colonial federation and national periods, to the very last attempts at securing recognition of Sunday by Congress during the year 1911.
This book is filled with matter of the most intense interest and of great importance. It should be read not only by every Seventh-day Adventist, but by your neighbors and friends, by judges, attorneys, and by other men of influence throughout the country.
