Circulate the First Issue of Liberty
By Editor
The first issue of the new magazine, Liberty, is one that should be given a very wide circulation. This issue deals with the fundamental principles separating the spheres of religion and the state, concerning which the people everywhere need to be educated. It contains nothing of merely local interest, or that will quickly be out of date, but is filled with matter that will be suitable for circulation everywhere for months to come. Is there any good reason why this issue should not be circulated by the tens of thousands during this time? The issue is here: Congress and the legislatures are being pressed to enact religious laws destructive of our liberties; the camp of the forces of intolerance is all astir; the people will be educated, if not upon the right side, then upon the wrong side of this vital question. Shall we see that their education is on the side of truth? Shall we rise to the tremendous opportunity that is before us? or shall we let the enemy seize it and shape it to his purposes? The magazine sells readily even here in Washington, where the people have free access to every class of literature. It will certainly sell in other places. It is the best means with which to meet the issue everywhere. There should be no difficulty in making good use of a large number in every place.
