Dear Journal:—From the Keystone State we applaud the sentiments republished in the June Journal from The Washington News Letter.
We cannot forget that if God be for us, neither scholastic theology nor Allopathy dare long be against us, and do not fear their futile efforts to stop the fast-spreading fame of the Christ cure. Yet, as American citizens, can we not ask why the M. D.'s are allowed to meddle with our laws. Why should our legislators give us laws framed by the National Association of Materia Medica, to protect its school of medicine from a better school which "knocks at the door of this age"? (S.&H.). Its methods are contrary to the spirit of 1776, and contrary to the Constitution itself.
Let Christian Scientists, as American citizens entitled to all the rights and privileges guaranteed by the Constitution to every American, lay bare all attempts to persecute this grand truth which has healed a myriad of cases where doctors had given up the patient to die. Let us, with this uncovering, realize that an error uncovered is two-thirds destroyed, and we shall soon see this persecution stop.
