MOTIVE FORCE.
German Statistics Of the Motive Power
of Steam Engines.


The bureau of statistics in Berlin
has recently issued some interesting
information in connection with the
motive force Of the world subject.
Four-ffths of the engines now work
ing in the world have been con-
struuted in the past twenty-five
years. France owns 40, 500 station
AIRY or locomotive boilers, 1000 loco
motives, and 1880 boat boilers;
Germany has $4,000 boilers, 10000
locomotives and LOO ships boilers;
Austria, $4,000 boilers and $500
locomotives. The force equivalent
to the working steam engine repre-
sents; In the United States, 1900
600 horse power; IN England, 1000
600 horse power; in Germany, 1, $780,
900; in France, 10000 and in
Austria l,500, 900. In these figures
the motive power of the locomotives
is not included, whose number in all
the world amounts to l05, 900, rep
rosenting II total Of 5000, 900 horse
power. Adding this amount to the
other powers, we obtain the total Of
4G, 900, 600 horse power. A steam
horse power is equal to three actual
horses power; and a living horse is
equal to seven men. The steam en-
glnes Of the world represent there
fore, approximately the work of
100000, 900 men, or more than
double the working population of
the earth whose total population
amounts to l,4j5, 1928, 600 inhabi-
tants. Steam has accordingly trebled
mans working power, enabling him
to economize his physical strength
while attending to his intellectual
Development.
This is generalizing, and ii these
great powers were in control Of the
organized workers they would be
still more labor saving to those who
must toll. The individual worker
must work about as hard, aud the
unemployed are growing more nu-
merous. Read the Socialist Plat
form.

POSTAL TELEGRAPH.

The people have about come to
the conclusion that it is time to take
the operation of the telegraph service
of this country out of the hands of
monopolists that have abused their
privileges in the premises and put
the system, in part if not in whole,
under the control Of the Federal
Government. The interests that are
involved are too important and too
general to permit any further tolera-
ton of that dictatorship in telegra-

CHURCH AND POLITICS.

Those good Catholics who have
fancied that they may take their re-
ligion from Rome, but not their
politics, will read with interest the
declaration made by Archbishop
Corrigan at the great jubilee cere-
mony in New York, Sunday. "What
are politics." said the archbishop,
''if not questions on morals? The
Holy Father never speaks on such
subjects but when party arises, as
has been the case, whose doctrines
are communistic and against the
foundation principles of the church,
he must tell his flock of their errors
and warn them. The rights of prop
erty are sacred by the lightnings and
thunders of Sinai. Beware. You
cannot think as you choose. You
must think as Catholics, who get
their instruction from Peter. In
questions of discipline the supreme
pontitf must be obeyed, because God
will guide him Alright" The arch
bishop said further that "esery
word leo speaks from his high chair
is the voice of the Holy Ghost and
must be obeyed" and ''to say that
there are questions which Peter
through Leo does not discuss is to
usurp his prerogatives and make
ourselves equal with him." After
DR.. McGIynn has digested this he
will perhaps be able to tell US how a
good Catholic can be q Henry George
protestant, and he might ask the
archbishop what shall be done with
Jesus of Nazareth, whose doctrines
were radically and unequiVocally
communistic and therefore by i'm
plicaton against the foundation of
the church." We fear there is a
mistake somewhere and we nope the
Holy Ghost will see that 1t is rect
fed before the next election. - Wiz

REVENGE.
c. W. BECKETT.

When the workers have their own again
And Labor rules the roast,
And we've really won the freedom
Which to day we only boast,
How shall we treat our masters
Who treated us SO i'll?
Wen make it pretty warm for them,
BY Jupiter, we will.
In field or pleasant work-room
Each one shall do his spell,
And, whether coats or cabbages,
Well see he does it we'll
Two hours good, useful work day,
Although it needn't kill,
viii touch the gentry up bit,
BY Jupiter, it will.
And when the work is over,
Quite early in the day,
Unless they'd rather sit and sulk,
Wen fetch EN- out to play;
OF song and sport and laughter
Each one shall have his fill;
And won't that be a sweet revenge,
By Jupiter, it will.
BY mirth Of hopeful labor,
And beauty born of mirth,
Wen gradually educate
The loafers of the earth
To see the good of brotherhood
And industry and skill;
Wen hail them then our fellow-meH,
BY Jupiter, we will.
