In his speech at Newmarket, the Hon.

Mr. Shearer stated that on the last octasion he had the privile ege tg\rk to ‘a Berlin audience he :’: the :;!.Illfl":. Sabbath," | thought would an opporâ€" tune time to speak on the battle for the Sabbath Day. He referred _ to the Lord‘s words ‘‘The Sabbath was made for man,‘" in which Christ brought into prominence the benign character of the Sabbath. It was not intended that it should be a burâ€" den on the people, but that it should be in reality a boon. No man could call Rimself a free man unless be could call one day out of the seven his own. ~It is not ‘only necessary that he should rest one day out â€" of the seven for the benefit and rest of mind and body, but also for the moral influence that is brought . to bear upon man on the Sabbath Day. It is a privilege to all to have the opportunity to trust, to love, to know and serve God, and the Sabâ€" bath grants man that privilege. It is an unspeakable blessing. to man |and it devolves upon us how we reâ€" lceive and use that day. The speaker then spoke of the inâ€" fAuences that are tending to nulâ€" lify the sanctity of the Sabbath Day, which appeals to the patriotism and love of our God and country. ~.The greed for gain does not hold that the Sabbath was made for man, and therefore the Sunday excursions . of last yearfrom American cities, parâ€" ticularly Buffalo, to Canada were arâ€" ranged and conducted. Mr. Shearer spoke of a Toronto weekly. journal which had the © effrontery to mainâ€" tain â€" that the Sunday excursions were a benefit to Canada on account of the large amount of money that is spent by excursionists while on this side of the line. He was alâ€" ways pleased . to welcome with & glad" hand. ‘visitors and emigrants from other â€" lands, but when aliens come here imperilling the sanctity of the Canadian Sabbath Day, Sunday excursions _ should be discouraged. Canada is not prepared to pay s0 high a price in sacrificing the Sabâ€" bath Day for commercial prosperity. ® Commercial â€" urgency and business pressure ~claims that the Sabbath | . was not made for man. It is the exâ€" ‘ cuse of commercial~urgency that alâ€"|. lows the great railways to do the greater portion. of their freight traiâ€" fic on the Sabbath. The claim first was that they are forced to run _ on j account of having perishable goods on their â€" hands, but every Sunday freight after freight of coal, granite and machinéry is passing along the line. Business pressure oftenâ€"times gets philanthropic in its methods, |csrecially | electric railway systems, | wken they find that there are many | poor people who are unable to get | ue church unless the cars ‘are | runâ€" fning, and also to takeâ€"the workingâ€" , | man and his family out of the cities , | to the parks for the purpose of ‘| breathing the pure air, and incidentâ€" ally have sermons preached to them y by the stones and trees, which might a | t* of more benefit to them than atâ€" _ | tending church services.â€" The lust of plâ€"asure has already demanded that sports, concerts, and theatres should te available on the Sabbath Day. It is selfishness on the part of any man | ! who says he is going to do just as te pleases on the Sabbath, no matéer how many other fellowmen are _deâ€"{ 1 prived of their _Sabbath by being rompelled to perhaps keep his barâ€" ber shop open, run his steamer, sell ice cream, sell newspapers in order | | to give the selfish man his pleasure. | ! Mr. Shearer referred to an address | in Ottawa to the Trades andâ€"Labor | Council of that city by Mr. Ralph Smith, M _P., President of the Tra®es Congress of Canada, in speakâ€" ing. on the Sabbath labor question, stated that he bad made it a pracâ€" tice of his life never to participate in any convenience of pleasure where it in any measure deprived another workman of his rest day. The speaker said that it that was . the principle of trades unionism ... God bless it, that was . the highest principle involved in the carrying out of the Golden Rule. There . is | more conscience and more heart needâ€" ed amongst Canadian people, Te | membering what it means to others |to work on the Sabbath D;;“ In .\ Canada toâ€"day there are 100,000 men compelied _ to work on Sunday, $0,000 of whom work on the various‘ transportation systems of the land .

Referring to the progress that has been made Mr, Shearer spokeé of the work of the Lord‘s Day Alliance, which labors along four lines, nameâ€" iy, education, organization, legisiaâ€" tion and . the securing of a reasomâ€" able respect for the Sabbath.

In all of the legislative fights during the year the Alliance had been successful, and in over 100 cases Sabbath breaking had been terminated by the influence of the Alliance.
