I present a petition of the Pastors Union of the city of Snohomish. Wash.. comprising the resident pastors of the Evangelical churches in that city. urging upon Congress the passage of the resolution relative to giving relief to the Armenian people of Asiatic. Turkey. The petitioners go on to recite that the massacre of guiltless thousands. the outraging of helpless women. selling into slavery innocent irls. the total destruction of the homes and the necessities of life of vast multitudes can not find a parallel short of the darkest days of the Middle Ages. They urge that the great Governments should unite for their suppression. and if diplomatic methods can not avail that they then invoke the arbitrament of force.
