The Chicago Times devotes over a col
umn to an exposure of the oppressive
and unjust methods OF the police courts
in that city.
In the Chicago police courts the mag
igtrates seem to have no respect for the
rights of citizens. They are either igno-
rant or regardless of the law. They al
low themselves to be influenced by the
police, and a poor man stands no chance
Of obtaining justice. When a man is
arrested he is presumed to be guilty.
He is not allowed to communicate with
his friends, and the judge, after hearing
a few words from a policeman, fines the
prisoner or has him locked up.
1t will be suggested that the victims of
such injustice, when they are clearly
innocent, should seek redress after their
release. Poor men are at a disadvantage.
They nave neither the time nor the
money for such a fight. Rich men are
favored in the police courts, and have
no cause to complain.
Sometimes a magistrate feels inclined
to let a poor fellow off by continuing q
case indefinitely or suspending sentence.
When he shows a disposition to do this q
police officer will interfere and make the
point that it will discourage the police
and cause them to make fewer arrests.
Now such talk, says The Times, is in
the nature of a threat, and the magis-
trste should at once punish the officer
for contempt of court. Instead of stand
ing up like men, these little judges yield
and carry out the wishes of their mas
tiers, the police officers. When thou
INT of poor men in a community get
into their heads that the police courts
are organized to convict them, while the
rich go scot free, there is going to be
trouble, In this country we cannot have
one law for the rich and another for the
poor and expect peace and order. At

A recent dispatch from Ottawa says:
George Taylor, M. p, Gananoque, de-
clares that unless the international labor
problem Is made a subject of discussion
at the forthcoming reciprocity conven-
ton in Washington he will r~eintroduce
his alien labor bill at the next session OF
parliament. He urged its adoption last
session, but at the earnest solicitation of
the leader Of the government consented
to withdraw it for the time.
Taylor's county borders on the st.
Lawrence, and many of his constituents
felt the operation of the United States
alien labor law last summer very severe
ly. Those of them employed as boat
men among the Thousand Islands were
prevented doing business on the Ameri-
can side till in consequence of threat
ened reprisals upon the owners of steam
yachts by the Canadian customs officials
an order from Washington caused tho
collectors on the American shore to relax
their enforcement of the regulations.
This, however, failed to pacify Mr..
Taylor, who will press his retaliatory
measure, which is an exact copy of the
American alien labor law.

Father Breasteau, of the Oblat order,
in commencing a series of Advent ser
mons on the labor question in the Church
of Notre Dame, said that the present
agitated and uneasy state of society
throughout the world rendered mankind
almost as miserable as before the first
advent of Christ, and there was every
need to prepare the path anew for the
coming of the Saviour. He then traced
a vivid picture of the present situation
as far as capital and labor are concerned.
He showed in the higher regions of So
ciety the always increasing thirst OF
capitalists to acquire riches by all means,
without regard to justice or equity to-
ward the lower classes.
On the other hand were the innumer-
able army of producers, cognizant of tho
wrongs done them and organizing every
where to demand their rights. The
selfish capitalists and the irritated work
ing classes were standing there like two
electrodes charged with forces of an OPP
posite nature, and when they came in
contact the resulting shock would be
terrible. canadian Exchange.

Organization is the question of the
hour. As it stands now a producer who
happens to have the commercial advan-
tage of location and transportation sets
the price for all in his line of industry,
and seeks thereby to regulate wages
The only check on this movement of this
age, strictly called pools or trusts, is
through complete organizations Of the
producers and distributors. Organized
distribution will offset the trusts.
Capitalization, which has gone so far,
constantly tends to throw out the infiu-
ence of the distributors. Organized
labor, whether it be for the man who
tolls with his hand or his brain, who
works at the factory or reaches over
states in his combined efforts to solve
the problem of the hour, is the sufferer.
If the concentration of capital, created
by the many but controlled by the few,
ever tending to further consolidation, is
permitted to continue, the day will
come, and at an early date, when the
representative of a junta of trust dicta-
tors will stalk boldly into our legislative
halls and, pointing to the speakers
mace, say:
Take away that bauble. States can
be saved without it."
This is the greatest danger that con-
fronts us all. This concentration OF
capital represents SO much organization
already effected and gives us the ex-
ample which we must follow. Repre-
sentatives of moneyed power meet in
harmony, each working for the interest
of the other. When the same harmony
exists among the producing classes they
will be able to accomplish something
for themselves. When that condition
arrives the inevitable result will come
through the medium of arbitration and
the creation of sentiments of harmony
between capital and labor. Then will
come the golden hour of the dawn of Il
new era, when the trusts will have
passed out of existence, the labor organ
ization will have become no longer neces-
sary and men will be recognized as men.
Organization is slowly building tho
coral reefs between which the food tide
of wealth and production must ebb and
flow. and over which, reckless of the
channel buoys, it will be dangerous
to go.
Every loyal American citizen should
pray for the hour when not half but the
entire country should be organized

La Grips.

The tendency of this disease toward
pneumonia is what makes it dangerous.
La Grippe requires precisely the same
treatment as a severe cold. Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is famous for its
cure OF severe colds. This remedy
effec.ually counteracts the tendency Of
the disease to result in pneumonia. pro.
vided the proper care be taken to avoid
exposure when recovering from the
attack. Careful inquiry among the many
thousands who have used this remedy dur
ing the epidemics of the past two years

has not recovered or that has resulted in
pneumonia. Fifty cent and 81 bottles fol

Facts:

That the Royal BAKING POWDER is the oldest
and purest baking powder, and the greatest
in leavening strength.
That it is free from every injurious substance.
That it makes lighter, sweeter, more nutritious
and healthful food than any other.
The Royal Baking Powder Company refnes its
own cream of tartar in its own mammoth re-
fnery, and thus insures its unvarying quality.
There is used in the manufacture of the Royal Baking
Powder more than half of all the cream of tartar consumed
in the United States for all purposes. This is required
and must be chemically pure, and chemically pure cream
oftartar could not be obtained in the markets of this coun-
try o. Europe, which necesstated the building of special
works, and the employment of special processes.
All other baking powders, when analysed, show
traces of lime and %sulphuric acid, which arise
from the impurities of the materials bought
in the market, which their manufacturers use.
This is why the Royal Baking Powder is the
only absolutely pure baking powder made.
