Unequal Enforcement of Sunday Laws

Idiosyncrasies and Inconsistencies of Sunday Laws.

The Toledo Blade notes that the "Sabbath" is observed in Toledo in a queer fashion. While it is impossible for a man to get shaved, even for church, saloons are running full blast, and gambling is practised openly. Theaters are also open. The simple fact is that no Sunday law that ever was bore equally on all classes, and that very thing of itself ought forever to convince understanding, thinking men that such a monstrosity never ought to be placed upon the statute books of civil law.
