The Petition for Religious Liberty

By Editor

The Christian Cynosure says that the “report that the petition of the Seventh-day Adventists against the Blair bill is signed by about ten times as many persons as that church reports, is attracting attention.”

Did the Cynosure but know it, the petition referred to is not “the petition of the Seventh-day Adventists” but of liberty-loving American citizens, of the various churches, not excepting Catholics, a number of whom have understandingly signed the petition. Seventh-day Adventists are, we are happy to say, not the only people in this country who love liberty and justice.
