WEsTCHEsTER county, New York, will
erect cage at the county seat where
men out of work will be placed. The
cage is arranged Sc that water can be
flooded into it and the person inside, if
unable to bail it out, will be submerged
and will not thereafter need work. The
supervisors of the eountv state that
something must be done with the tramp
and after due consideration have come
to the conclusion tn 1t the most humaue
way ID to put them in the cages. The
commissioners also argue that the
building of the "cage" will give work to
great many and thus obviate the nee
essitY of putting them in the cage after
is built. The workingmen in that
section object to the building of the
cage. If they get out of work and GO
into the next town on foot they will be
put into the cage and as most any man is
liable to be thrown out of work these
times, they are afraid it will 60 har d
with their families after they have been
under water in the cage for a night.
But worklngmen are eternally objectIng
to all modern improvem nts.

WILL HE wEAKENf

Itappears that there was an error in
the statement that the Rev. Edward
McGlynn was ordered to Rome to settle
with the pope for his support of HeLry
George. 1t is now reported that the
vatican has said to Mr.. McGlynn,
Don't do 1t again, or off comes your
head" So, though there really isn't a
bull in sight, we can hear the switching
of his tail.
Bishop Corrigan, the pronounced foe
of the peoples advancement, is to inves-
tigate Rev. McGlynn, and keep his eye
on him in .he future. All the world is
asking, "Will he weaken ?" meaning,
will the Rev. Edward McGlynn draw
back and 60 no farther into the move
ment for the elevation of mankind, the
bettering of his temporal condition,
which cause he so manfullv espoused?
I should say, no, he will not weaken =;
he has put his hand to the plow and he
will not turn back. He does not seem
to be made of the material of which
moral towards are constructed, and a
circular dated the sixteenth instant Nears
his name as one of the Land and
Labor" committee, which now represents
the movement that supported Henry
George.
Edward McGynn has Right on hil
side, and that is more than all the popes
and Corrigans who have existed since
the world began can combat. He will
be true to his fellow.man. and in tina
will be true to his God.

Some of our labor exchanges evince a
spirit of selfshness that Is painful 10 all
true workers in labor's vineyard. 1t is
great weakness for one labor Journal to
imagine or crave to occupy the whole
field. Each paper that labors in the
noble cause of humanity should be up
held and given the strongest support bv
the other labor journals. They are all
links in one grand chain, and every
addition should be regarded with graft
fcation by the others. The larger the
bond the greater the good that can be
effected. Let US be united.-Free Press

or to, in any manner, show sympathy
with the radical branch of the labor
movement. 1t is more than likely that
there is Father Flanagan or Corrigan
behind this move. 1t is intended as a
counter or gaurd move against the just
indignation which is being expressed az
the recent acts of the administration
but it will fall short. Twill have some

GALLICAN1SM.

1t is now reported that the ofense of
Father McGlynn, the noted New York
priest, about which complaint was
sst in his differing with Archbishop D
Corrigan in regard to the land views of
Henry George. 1t appears that for
long time he has been considered too in
dependent, and that he was tending
strongly toward that degree of indie
pendence of the pope which is known as
Gallicanism. The authorities at Rome
have observed the growth of a Gallican
spirit in the American church and the
desire, of course, has been to check
rather than encourage 1t. The CALI
canism of Father McGlynn would, how
ever, tend to make him popular rather
than otherwise with the majority of
Protestant Americans.-Republican.
1t needed not the testimony of the
Republican to assure the observing man
that the objection to Father McGlynn
was more because of his independence
church than because of his disagreement
with Bishop Corrigan. Father McGlynn
belongs to that class of moral teachers
which believes that the good man has
duties to perform toward the physical
as well as the spiritual man. He realizes
that it Is the duty of the true Christian
to endeavor to better the condition of
man while he is yeton earth, as well as
to prepare his soul for what comes be-
yond the grave. Hs has, therefore, en-
tered the lists with the champion of
the Rights of Man, and is giving his in
telligence and energy to the protection
of those rights. This is not Galllcanism.
The church, both Catholic and Pro-
testant, has ever been the ally of the
oppressors of the poor and lowly it has
bolstered up the divine right of kings,
has aided despots in wringing the
sweat from the worlds toilers, has been
the cornerstone of human slavery, and
is now the chief support of tyranny and
monopoly. Is it any wonder that the
high muck a-mucks of the church come
down on one of it's ministers who has
the manhood and Christianity to rebel
against the old order of things?
Gallicanism is system in R oman
Catholic theology which claims the
right of the church in each nation to
regulate its own church discipline and
affairs, while it recognizes the primacy
of the Roman pontiff, by divine right,
over the universal church. Independ-
ent thought upon worldly matters,
whether in Europe or America, is for
bidden by the vatican. if that thought
strikes at the unholy compact be tween
church and state and threatens to oyer
turn the power of the rich, whose pam
pered pets and tools the rulers of the
church are.
There is no charge against Father
McGlynn, that he has shown any dlsp o.
sition to fly in the face of the pope in
conducticg the details of church affairs
in America; but IS an individual, as
man interesting himself in temporal
matters he shows a. determination to
stand up for the equal rights of man
kind, though such course be in contra
diction of the traditions of the rulers of |
the church.

TIE remarkable cut in railroad
rates to this coast can not but stim1-
late travel here from the East, while
they last. Thousands will probably
take advantage of the low fares and
visit us, who have not heretofore in
tended to do so. To old settlers, who
came across the plains, across the
isthmus or "around the horn" il
seems marvellous that one can reach
San Francisco from Chicago, by rail,
or return, for $7O.40, first-class, I'M

$35 on first-class rates prevailing

kilograms, there is diversity OF
views among railroad men as to how
long this sweeping reduction will con-
tinue. c. p. Huntington is reported
20 have said, in reference TO his COM
panies, 1--WE are, and have been all
along, in favor Of low rates; we be-
