EUROPEAN ARNfAMENTs.
Rev. William Wilkinson breaches
on the Prospects for War.

on the Prospects for War.
In st. Andrews church last night the
rector gave his eighth address OH what
he saw in Europe, and dealt with the
war questions and war preparations,
and said:
There never will be any lOng-settled
and sure peace in the world until the
Christian sentiment of the world is not
alone against the war spirit. as il truly
now is. but till the time comes when il
has enough energy to induce the gov
ernments which are now the leaders in
modern progress, in trade, in impor-
lance, to disband by far the larger part
of the armies they now keep in con-
slant readiness and even anxiety to fight.
For war is always very welcome to
soldier. In it he sees radiant visions Of
what he calls military glory. How much
that phrase is ansWerable for sin and
murder. no man can calculate. Few
wars have been justifiable. They are
all attended with terrible results. 1t is
appalling to tl.ssk that Europe could in
short order, if war were general, place
in the field 100000 men, every one
with the very best implements science
has yet been able to devise, and made
for the killing OF their fellows. When
we remember how many men are. in a
money interest, concerned in making
the things used in war, and that the
pay for such material is ever prompt.
and, as rule lavish, we shall see
what premium there is a
all times on the fighting disposition of
any people And, considering. how very
unprincipled many men are and mer-
cenary too, need we wonder that small
causes lead to the wreck of mighty des-
TIMES and to the changes in the map of
Europe, as we have seen in our own day?

A man whose name is J. Lofgren, but

was found about II o'clock yesterday
morning lying dead at the foot OF the
stairs in the block where he boarded,
No. $50 Seventeenth avenue south.
Nothing definite is as yet known as TO
the cause of Lofgren's death, but it is
supposed that he broke his neck by
falling down stairs. There is large
rent in the back of the coat he wore,
which it is supposed was torn by nail
as he fell. The remains are at Connel-
ly's morgue, and an inquest Will be held
to-day.
LOfgren was about fifty years of age,
and AT the place where he boarded was
understood TO be a canyasser for some
printing house.
1t is said that he has relatives in Red
Wing, and the chief of police of that
city has been telegraphed to make
search for them.

THE CONDITION of LABOR.
Rev. S. W. Sample Reviews Henry
Georges Book at the Peoples
Meeting.

Georges Book at the Peoples
Meeting.
The peoples meeting last evening
was addressed by Rev. S. W. Sample,
who chose for his subject 1.-The Condi-
ton OF LABOR" and devoted his address
principally to q consideration of the
encyclical letter issued some months
ago by the pope, ana the re-
cent reply published by Henry
George. In a few Introductory
remarks the preacher stated that he ap-
peared not as the representative of any
church, society or body of men. and that
neither church nor society nor the peo-
pies meeting was in any way to be con-
sidered as responsible for his utterances.
He then proceeded to say that the labor
question was the SphynX problem of
to-day. Those who could not solve it
were destroyed by it, but he who could
solve it would accomplish the deStruc-
ton of the SphynX.
lie set forth that not only the misery
of the child and mother who were forced
TO work. but injustice, crime. despera-
ton, intemperance, prostitution and
other unnamable wrongs grow out OF
the labor system and social conditions
Of to-day. He continued:
This is what we call a democratic gov
eminent, but we cannot long have a
democracy with millionaires at one end
and pauperS at the other. In order TO
have a political Democracy we must
have a social democracy. We hear a
great deal of talk about the room at
the top, but it must be remembered that
the top shelf is not as large as the bot
tom one. They are built in the form OF

divine Clock has never stopped or varied
Ecllpses and falling stars and every
thing IN heaven and earth to-day are
preaching trust instead of terror, faith
instead of fear, and showing a far
alviner universe than Bibles ever told.
lhey are indeed religious signs, and
signs that the Millennium and day of
the Lord Is Eere and always has been.
Good people may cease their lament
over the eclipse of faith To-night's
eclipse will be but the shadow of our
little earth, out of which the moon will
quickly pass into the light that fills the
universe. and any eclipse of faith is
but the shadow of our little fears. from
which religion will pass as surely into
the eternal light and life"

a pyramid. We read in the papers of
Mrs. Vanderbilt attending a ball wear
ing crown of diamonds fashioned after
that of Queen Victoria and costing $780,
GOO. and in the same paper, perhaps,
read of the fOur-year-old children in the
tenements of Boston working hard to
assist their parents TO exc out misera-
bic existence"
Returning to the subject of Henry
Georges book, he said:
1.-The greatness of this hook, however,
is that it is religious book This prob
lem is not political problem nor a
social problem, but religious question
and an et1lcal question, and nv friends.
L will tell you that you will never rightly
solve any problem until you have care
fully considered its religious and ethical
side. Self-interest is devils tool and
will only do DEVILS work.
Zone of the effects of Mr.. Georges
book is to plainly show the failibility of
the pope. | have read that the present
pope is the greatest scholar that ever
sat in Peters chair. and that he spent
two years in the formulation of that
encyclical letter. but here is a
man who within a few months shows
the supetficiality Of many of its teach
lngs. But it Is no wonder that the pope
has thrown himself in the way of the
reform movement. Ever since Calico
said the world moved. and the pope said
it didn't, that hierOarchal body has
thrown itself in the way OF every move
ment toward reform. But you notice
that it is not the reform movement that
gets out of the way
He dwelt at great length upon the
necessity of unity in social and religious
relations, and in conclusion said:
mir. George has got hold of very
radical truth, and say this not as a
h00byist but as a student. That truth
is that God made the earth for the
children of men and that all these
children-have equal rights to its prod
uctS. / do not mean 10 say that single
tax is panacea, but it is like swivel
gun. 1t may be aimed in many direc-
tlons and accomplish great deal of
good"

away without any further notice being take n

The funniest thing about that occur
renee of Friday night in the council
was the apparent earnestneSs of BraZie
when he moved that the board of chart
ties and corrections be censured for dis
penSing with the services of John West
He seemed to think that the board of
charities and coIrecuonswas subordinate
to the city council: that it was a sort of
hayward child to be corrected when
ever ii CHANGED to disturb the sleep Of
lis Senile parent. And the other alder
men carried ont the jest by supporting
BTaZie and voting 20 cenSure the board.
CenSuTe il for what? For doing that
which the state OF Minnesota had given
it the authority to dc: fer doing that
which would best serve the interest Of
the city: for doing that which it was eX-
pected by the public to 90 and TO do
long before it did. Why does
not Mr.. BraZie censure the peO-
pie OF Minneapolis for thinking
that the city council is not the
wisest body that ever sat in one room?
Some few months ago it was discovered
that prisoners were being receipted for
by the WOrkhOuse authorities who were
never taken TO the wOrkhOUSe, and
whom the man who signed the receipt
for them had never seen. The city
council, with all its perspicacity. with
all its ambition to stand up for the
right. could not see anything wrong in
that. That body seemed TO think that
the arrest. trial and conviction of men
and women guilty Of breaking the laws
were mere matters of form, bluff at
government. But now this city council
sees that a great wrong has been com
mitted when the man who allowed the
city's business to be conducted thus
loosely, and who has never satisfac-
torily explained why so many men have
escaped from the WOTkhouse. is dropped
from an important position of trust.
But comment on that affair is useless.
MI. Brazie and his eleven followers
would not look more ridiculous in the
garb of Harlequin and riding on broom
handles than they do since they passed
that resolution.
