The following address has been issued by the Salesmen and Clerks union: To the Citizens of Topeka: The statutes of Kansas provides that it is illegal for merchants to sell goods on the Sabbath day; the moral sentiment of the citizens of Topeka is against the barter and sale of goods on Sunday; the physicial constitutions of the salesmen of the city are not fitted for seven days of continuous toil; six days shalt thou labor and on the seventh you shall rest. Despite the foregoing truths, so well known and accepted as to be axiomatic, there are a few merchants and only a few who persist in opening their places of business contrary to law, morals and physical endurance. The Salesmen and Clerks union therefore take the op-portunity to warn all concerned that if violations of the Sunday closing law are not ceased aution will be taken by said union to enforce the law. Merchants who open on Sun. day are on the list.

No exception will be made in favor of those who lock the front door and in eigle people in through the side door. We respectfully ask the aid of all citizens in this work, and feel that truth is mighty and will prevail. Respectfully, Salesmen Union. J. VAN IAEYS, WflTCJOTKEIOTD JEWELLER, 82A K.MSRS RMS.
