The California Sunday Amendment Defeated

By William Ambrose Colcord

WRITING from the Assembly Hall of the State Capitol at Sacramento, Cal., Feb. 20, 1907, Elder Isaac Morrison, our religious liberty secretary of the California Conference, says: “The Sunday amendment has just been voted down by a large majority. As it was introduced in the Senate some time ago, it is possible for them to notice it, but not probable.” This is good news. We are glad to learn that the forces of evil have again been defeated in California, and that the spirit of persecution is thus being held in check. Our brethren in that State have been laboring and praying most earnestly for this victory to the cause of freedom, and their efforts, it seems, have been crowned with success. W. A. COLCORD.
