The Church and the K. of L.

BALTIMoRE, Oct. 30th.-Tke tSan this
morning has the following: Grand Mas
ter Powderly of the Knights Of Labor,
was in the city Thursday and called upon
Cardinal Gibbon at his residence, where
a conference Of p~relates was held to dis
cuss questions affecting the welfare of the
Catholic church in the United States, prin-
cipally the relations and duties of the
Catholics who are Knights Of Labor
Powderly had two interviews with the
cardinal, and laid before him tie consti
tuition and bylaws CT the order. He also
spoke Of the purpose of the knights and
how in his opinion they were II orga2i-
cation not included in the prescription of
the church against secret societies which
promise blind obedience. The utterances
of Powderly were carefully noted and
presented to the church bishops. The
grand master workman was wholly unex
peeted and unknown among the Knights
in this section who did not look for him
before next week. 1t was known that he
would visit Cardinal Gibbons in obedience
to instructions from the convention Of the
| knights held at Richmond. It is said he
went away from Baltimore assured thai
| his organization would not be interfered
with.

The appalling accident on the Chi
cago, Milwaukee s. Saint Paul rail
way last week, by which numerous
men and women were roasted alive,
seems to have been due to the crimi-
nal c~arelessness Of a brakeman who
vas direlict in his important duty Of
setting the switch. No less then ff-
teen human lives were thus lost. Just
how many suffered this most horrible
of deaths on that fatal night cannot
Ee a~scertained- Il men are capable Of
learning any lessons in life, the ex-
ample Of this horrible catastrophe
ought to sink deep into the heart OF
every railroad man.

GOT THERE.

It is now certain that J. K..Toole is
elected by at least 1000 majority.
This overwhelming victory over San
ders will probably retire the latter
permanentlylto private life. What the
friends of Col. Sanders ever based
their confident hopes of his election
upon is more than we have ever been
able to understand. The causes of
his defeat are manifold. In the first
place, Montana is still and will be for
many years, democratic by a large
majority.
Second: Col. Sanders has a host
Of enemies in his own party who ca
gerly embraced the opportunity to
knife him.
Third: His positive alliance with
the Northern Pacific as against the adj
vent Of other railroads into the Terri
tory, brought to the support Of Toole
a large number of independent voters.
Fourth: The Timberl1ne troubles
turned against Sanders the Knights Of
Labor and hundreds Of their sympa-
thizers. The old war horse viii doubt
less take his defeat philosophieally as
he is accustomed to such grief,
To the people Of Northern Montana
the result Of the election is indeed
gratifying. We believe that Mr..
Toole will fulfill all his pledges to
them; that he will be the staunch
friend of the Manitoba railroad,
which will accomplish more towards
the development Of Northern Mon
tana in one year than has ever been
done before in a decade. Those who
valiantly stood by the victorious can
didate will never have cause to regret
it. Voters who were deceived into
casting their ballots for Sanders will
find that the cry Of sshome interest:
was not a mere political watchword
The benefcent result Of Toole's cleo
ton Will convince them that we were
right and they were wrong.

The PIONEER PREss says that Hen
ry George is charged, by his oppon-
ents in New York, Of ~plagiarizing
shamefuliy from Moses. especially
from that %iurist's 18th chapter Of Lee
v%iticus, relating to landed property.
1t thinks the charge has some found
alton, but that George is safe because
Moses has been dead SC long that no
action for Infringement Of copyright
could be brought against him. We
think that the Statute Of limitations
could be well pleaded in this cause.
But IT is safe to say that the Mosaic
truth is new to most of Georges
followers.

Sabbath evening from ministerial duties, /

was wrong, and said he was constantly
forming resolutions of amendment. He
was poor and unhappy at home. because
he was a drunkard, and a drunkard be-
cause he was a Sabbath-broaker. MANY
