MODERN CHURCHES
Are Rapidly Becoming Swell Club
Houses.

CHAUTAUQUA, n. Y, 16.-TOpics of
here this week. The attitude OF
the workingmen towards the church,"
was the subject of an address this alter
noon by Thomas j. Morgan,
a we'll known labor leader of Chicago.
The address provoked a great amount
of discussion. When lie had con-
Guided his presentation preacher arose
and declared that the address of Mr..
Morgan was one of the most unfair
and the facts stated most unfounded he
had ever heard. This assertion was
followed with Kisses from all over the
audience, and the over-ZeatouS preacher
sat down i'll confusion. Another
preacher went to crate, whereupon Vice
Chancellor Vincent arose Eand said
that Mr.. Morgan had the right to assert
his convictions. aid il any one did not
agree they had the option to disagree.
but they must not make any such dis
plays Of themselves. Mr.. Morgan then
declared that the attitude of the
preachers on the present occasion &C
counted largely for the attitude of the
workingmen toward the churches. The
attitude of the church toward the work
ingmen deserved no credit. The clergy,
on the whole, had never given any
words of comfort, Tut had always OPP
posed labor movements.
''LaborerS asked that the worlds fas
be open on Sunday. and almost every
preacher III the land rose up and spoke
against it. The church is human, not
divine"
The laboring man has no fight against
religion he said. but against some of its
eXpounders. The ministers are wage
earners, and are paid to preach the Cos
pei of the pew owners. When they
say what they think they lose
their job. The churches are becoming
simply club houses where nlay be found
well fed and we'll clothed members. Ir
you cant help us, then get out of the
way. What we do is on a moral basis,
and we should be encouraged, not
antagonized There is not depth of
poverty i'll the Old World that is
not reached here.
He said the average earnings is s1.O2
per day, and he further claimed the un-
fortunate condition of laboring men is
not due to liquor drinking, but to the
social condition.

BUFFALoEs AND THE SEALS.


The tender solcitude of a paternaI
government for those who are best able
to take care of themselves Is shown in
tile relative treatment accorded the
seals and the buffaloes. Fen years ago
the latter roamed the sub-arid plains of
the West in countless numbers. They
furnished beside the food product Il fur
hide which provided cheap and com
Portable covering from the cold, and
winter outer garments. The buffalo
oVerceat was within the reach of the
poorest. Not hand was lifted to STAY
their ruthless slaughter. They were
Killed by the hundreds i'll mere wanton
sport, ana their carcaSSeS and hides
were left 10 rot where they fell. No
voice was raised in congress against it:
10 act was passed to perpetuate them
10y stopping the slaughter. Possibly
buffalo eyercoats competed with ShodIy
mills already under the fostering care
of the nation.
They afforded the only garment
which was an outward mark of
wealth. The sealskln sacque was as
secure badge of social distinc-
ton as republican institutions could
provide. Not only were they beyond
the reach of the poor. but beyond that
OF the great mass of the people. For
these plush, with its palpable attempt at
imitation of the sealskin, was good
enough, and even that was preserved
from becoming cheap ana nasty" by
round protective tax.
1t was easy. then, to raise powerful in
t1uences in behalf of the seal when it
was threatened with extinction and the
supply OF peltS was bringing them
within reach of the "lower classes
Congress interfered. The killing was
given over TO monopoly. C0ntraband
killing was punished with fine and im-
priSonment and confiscation. Foreign
ers were notified to keep their depreda-
tory hands Off. The revenue cutters
were detailed to guard the seals and
protect the monopoly. 1t became an in
ternatfonal matter 1t got into politics.
a noted statesman played with the
hons tail for votes, twisting it vigOr-
ouSiy. A high court of arbitration sat
In solemn conciave to hear two week
speeches by learned lawyers, with long
briefs and longer fee bills. Learned
experts testified yoluminouSly, aud,
after their kind, contradictorily, relative
to the nature and habits Of the seal.
And this high court took the matter
out of the hands of the litigants before
lt.and, as supreme courts sometimes do,
decided the case out of its own wis
dom; aud it has drawn protecting lines
about the seals which will insure their
perpetuity and the preservation to our
aristocracy forever of their one sole
badge of royalty, the sealskin sacque.
And the poor buffalo? Oh, he was I'M
fashionably useful. and he has gone,
except the few hundred gathered on
some preserve to show the future gen
erati0ns as a curiosity.
