THE CHURCH VS.. TRADES UNIONS

An event has recently transplred IN Mon
treal. which j. arousing the anger Of the
Trades nionists Of the Dominion, ana
which threatens serious results, unless an
anlcable settlement is shortly effected. A
member Of jacques Cartier Typographical
Union having died, application was made
tpr a burial permit IN the Catholic Gene
t-ry the decreased having been a member
Of that church r. the astonishment Of
the funeral committee. burial vas refused
BY the clerical authority, on the ground
that the deceased had been a member Of a
secret organization. and consequently the
remains could not repose IN consecrated
grounds Indignant at such a refusal,
MessIs Lacroix and Atty, presidents of the
French ana English Unions, waited On the
Bishop, with the intention, if possible, to
have the prohibition revoked, at the same
time furnishing hi'n a copy If the organi-
cation. They were told to call again-w when
they were informed that the utmost limit
to which he could 60 was to permit the in
terment II the ground allotted t. strangers,
without the rites Of the Church.
Now with all due Difference to tins rever-
ends decision, We assure him that Catholic
bishops in the States, men Of equal piety
and faithfuluess with himself have not
only permitted the burial Of trades union
lists in consecrated ground, but have tender
ed them their hearty sympathy. We know
whereof We speak, and can furnish the
necessary data if required.
Trades mons POSSESS nothing Of a po-
htical character they are the creations Of
necessity. Self-preservatipn is nature
first Law, and men have certainly as much
right to transact their business in their
own way, and combine for ooatuai protection,
as their employers have to hold their secret
caucuses 70 crush them.
1t is quite possible the Bishop may have
COMPOUNDED the International Typngraphi-
cal Union with the iHt,rautionais, ~ Eu-
rope, with which it has no connection -di-
rect or indirect BE this as it may, We as
sure HIM that no church. Catholic or Pro
testant -can dictate to the mechanics on
matter In which 1t should have no voice,
and over which it can exercise no con
troll.

AMERICAN LIVERY

One Of the most amusing and alarming
features Of the times Is the effort Of num-

society A hog in armor, bull in China

would not he more ludicrous or out Of

But if We despise the rsigaIty which
apes the most Objectionable features Of Eu-

little manhood they ever possessed, and
make a public exhibition Of themselves for
a Iirinq So long as they exist Darwin has

A STRIKE Of rather serious character Is
now IN progress anon. the Pudlers and
Rollers Of Phenixville, Co., Pa. On the
LIST Of May demand was made by the
employees, to the number Of POO, that they
should receive only twenty-five cents per
ton less than Philadelphia prices. This
was acceded 10 on the condition that all
those who remained az work would forever
forswear allegiance to their trade organi-
zation. Twenty renegades signed the doc
ument presented, but $50 good and true
men have refused to touch the uncean
thing. and renamed true to their honor and
convictions. The question Is simply one
Of endurance.

Nothing has TRANSFERRED during the past

victory to its side. As matters now stands,

have notified their employers they leave
work unless on or before that date the adj
vance Of Sd per hour in wages be conceded.
