The Church and the Laborer

Bishop Potter has written a pastor.
al letter to his clergy on the labor cri-
sis, in which, without going far into
the economical side of the case, he
comments with much severity on the
moral condition of the wealthy class
among us as one of the causes of the
strange growth of class hatreds on
American soil. He says In one place
A nation whose wealth and social
leadership are in the hands of people
who fancy that day after day, like
those of Old, they can ''sit down to
eat and drink and rise up to play"
careless of those who earn the divi-
dends that they spend and pay the
rents otthe tenement-housest that they
own, but too often never visit or in
spect, has but one doom before it, and
that the worst. We may cover the
pages OF our statute books with laws
regulating strikes and inflicting SCI
verest penalties on those who or
ganize resistance to the individual
liberty, whether of employer or work
man; we may drill regiments and per-
feet our police; the safety and welfare
of a. state is not in these things, it is
in the contentment and loyalty of its
people. And these come by different
road. When capitalists and employ
ers of labor have forever dismissed the
fallacy, which may be true enough in
the domain OF political economy, but
it is essentially false in the domain of
religion, that labor and the laborer
are alike a commodity, to be bought
and sold, employed or dismissed, paid
or underpaid, as the market shall de-
cree; when the interest Of workman
and master shall have been owned by
both as one, and the share of the la
boring man shall be something more
than a mere wage; when tile principle
of joint interest in what's produced,
Of all the brains and hands that 90 to
produce it is wisely and generously
recognized; when the weli-being Of our
fellow.men, their homes and food, their
pleasures and their higher moral and
spiritual dpecessities, shall be seen to
be matters concerning which we may
not dare to say, Am my brothers
keeper" then, but not TIL then, may
we hope to heal those grave social di-
visions concerning which there need to
be among us all, as with Israel Of old,
great searching ofheart." "

Come, cuddls your head on my shoulder,
dear
Your head like the golden rod,
And we will go sailing away from her'
To the beautiful Land of Nod.
Away from life's hurry and furry and
worry,
Away from earth's shadows and gloom;
To world OF fair weather we'll float of
together
Where roses are always in bloom.
just shut your eyes and fold your hands
Your hands like the leaves Of rose
And we will go sailing to those fair lands
That never an atlas shows.
On the north and west they are bounded
by rest,
On the south and east by dreams;
'Tis the country ideal where nothing is
real,
But everything only seems.
Just drop down the curtains OF your dear
eyes
Those eyes like bright bue-bell-
And we will sail out under starlit skies
To the land where the fairies dwell.
Down the river OF sleep our bark shall
sweep
Till it reaches that mystical Isle
Which no man hath seen, but where all
have been,
And there we will pause awhile.
will Groom you a song as we float along
To that shore that is blessed Of God;
Then ho! for that fair land, we are off for
that fair land
That beautiful Land of Nod.

ROBBING THE STAGE.

The four-horse mud-wagon, called
by common consents a stage, which ran
between Bokey's and Logtown, was
crawling up the long grade which cork
screwed around to the summit of Pilot
Knob. 1t was necessary to do this
in order that agood preparatory start
might be had for the succeeding rat
ting plunge down the other corkscrew
road which lead to Logtown.
The stage crawled slowly up to the
top of the hill, and Black Pete, the
driver, settled his foot firmly on the
brake-strap, and with q "scat 'em,
boys" the sweating horses started to
investigate the almost invisible road
below them on keen gallop.
Round and round the rapidly vary
ing road the stage and passengers
whirled, sometimes losing sight of the
horses around the sharp turns and
again Slowing sharply outward toward
the dangerous edge of the canon which
yawned below them. The sun was
down and the moon was painting
weird shadows on the powdered dust
of the grade.
Suddenly the chaparral bushes by
the roadside slightly parted, and a
long shining black object was waved
over them toward the stage. A shad-
owy figure rose in the moonlight
among the bushes and from behind
black veil, which smothered the voice
somewhat, came the hoarse command
of:
"stopl stopl"
Black Pete hurriedly pushed hisfoot
heavily down upon the brake, reached
down into the bottom of the stage,
pulled out the express box, and threw
it into the road, muttering:
"Cuss We, take itl'
The restless horses Immediately
plunged away into the shadows of the
forest.
"Wa-was that highwayman?"
gasped passenger who sat by the
drivers side.
"In course it was" answered Pete;
"didn't yer see ther shooting g-iron?
Thar goes a cool thousand dollars, as
j knows on. You bet ther boys'll be
out arter him tonight. ! shouldn't
wonder if that war cd Bart himself.
He's a cool one, he is. He always
shoots his mouth of in some potry.
Leaves it in the box when he gets
through with it. Didn't yer notice
how level he held that thar shooting
iron right toward me?o
The lights Of Iogtown now glistened
below them, and a few turns OF the
corkscrew brought the stage up to the
hotel porch, where it stopped with a
loud aWhoap' from Pete.
It was little, cramped-up, helter
skelter mining amongt the Slerras.
One need not rise early in Scars Hole
to see the sun rise, for he will not see
it if he does. Old Sol is never visible
there until 10 in the morning. The

thrown at random from the box, were

He Wins the Springfield Shooting and

The regular weekly shoot of the Spring
field Shooting and Fishing Club was held
Yesterday afternoon at the clubs range on
the Perrin farm. south of the city. Only
fair shooting was done aS strong breeze
blew across the range. causing the birds to
fly badly.
Towards the close of the match it became
exciting. Perrin was shooting in good form,
and as he had already won the medal twice,
and only had 10 win it once more to
become its owner, he was shooting for all
that was in him. Russell and Strong
pressed him closely, however, and it was
by no means certain who would win the
medal until the last round was shot.
At the conclusion of the shoot, Perrin :
score showed Is birds, killed; Russell, Il:
Strong, Il; Wilson. lS; Warder, II; and
Whitridge. II. The scores of others are,
at the request of the club, not published.
Perrin. having won the medal three
times. becomes its owner, and he has a
right to be proud of the beautiful
trophy. One or two other members
of the club are feeling pretty
sore over their defeat but as they were de
fsated fairly and squarely, they cannot
kick at anything unless it might be them
