THE California Christian Advocate has this to say: "California has the ignominious infamy of being the only State in the union that has no laws recognizing and protecting the Sabbath [Sunday] in any way." And notwithstanding the fact that California has no Sunday law, she still has a population that shows the same regard for Sunday observance that is given to it anywhere in the country. Men and women go to church here very much in the same way that they do in the states where there are Sunday laws; and another class of men and women seek various kinds of amusements on Sunday about the same as they do in the other parts of the country where we have visited, and it has been our privilege to spend more or less time in quite a representative portion of the various states of the union. Sunday laws have proven a dead letter wherever they have been enacted, except in the cases where they have been enforced thru religious spite or bigotry. Sunday laws are one of the institutions of a Church and State regime that the fathers of this country failed to get rid of when they were laying the great corner-stones of religious freedom that have made of this nation one of the freest and happiest peoples on the face of the earth. And the tenacity with which this bit of religious legislation holds to the minds of some men would seem to augur that it will yet be the medium thru which the world will be swung backward to the general old-time plan of making laws to try to compel men to act religiously, whether they are religious or not.
