Rev. DIR. Muir Discusses the Treatment of
Anarchists.
Anarchy and he assassination OF President
Carnot formed the theme of the sermon of
the Rev. Dr. Joseph j. Muir last night at
the Street Baptist church.
He narrated the story Of the assassination
of President Clrnot. and spoke of the deep
sympathy that has been created by the act of
the assassin. He spoke of the deaths OF Lin
coin and Garfield at the hands OF assass:ns.
and the great affiictlon that fell upon this
country in consequence.
Rev. DIR. Muir then spoke of the greatness
of President Carno, and the love that his peo-
pie had for him. The craftsmanship and
patriotic loftiness of his character was men,
toned and he sasd that in his death France
lost one whose name was foremost on the list
Of great men of the French republic The
perils that constituted authorities were liable
to were discussed and pointed out.

stage in governmental matters where mems

safe guards around them. No. armed force,

the common good. After discussing the hap

working man's reply. Without the labor OF
wage-earners employers could ngt prosper,
and the extent Of that prosperity depends
largely upon their libsrality in the payment
Of wages. .s5ga{iS
The truism that labor creates wealth should
be supplemented with the fact that labor, also
consumes its own products. EEhf-tenths Of
the products Of farm, mine. and factory, and
in fact of all human enterprises arc purchased
and consumed by people engaged In manual
labor. And in short liberal wages will insure
general prosperity for both employer and
wage-earner, because wage-earners are the
principal consumers of all commodities.
For that reason. II none other, the sympa-
thy and support Of the public should be ac-
corded without stint to those who fight
against reduction Of wages. Public pros
perity demands that 1t be dono, public well
fare makes 1t necessity, and ultimate sue
cess in preventing the slow grind to poverty
Of the American wage-earner renders it i'm
perative, immediate, and unceasihg. Stop
sympathizinn with corporations in their con-
test with labor and give support to those who
most need it. The success Of the wage
earners will insure general prosperity.

wAGE.EARNERs AND PROSPERITY

The growing sentiment against corporations
makes itself more apparent with each addi-
tional strike, and the attitude of organized
labor in support Of the American Railway
Unions attempt to force the Pullman COM
pany to deal justly with its employees is both
commendable and encouraging.
Strikes are deplorable under any circum-
stance, but the arrogance of employers has
made them necessary. The common argu-
ment that wage-earners need not accept en-
ployment If the terms of employers are not
satisfactory is as fallacious as the assertion
that employers have right to cease hiring
wage-earners whenever caprice impels them
to do so.
Present conditions make it necessary that
one part of the world shall work for the
other. and these conditions also demand
that both employer and employed should deal
justly with each other in order that happiness,
contentment, and general prosperity may

The origin of every labor trouble Is the
grinding of wages, longer hours, less pay,
and harder tasks are the constant demand.

Conservation OF Rev. Father Burke as

Conservation OF Rev. Father Burke as
Bishop of Albany Made the Coca.
sion of Magnificent Display
ALBANY, n. Y. July 1.-The conservation
OF the Rev. Father Burke to be the fourth
Roman Catholic bishop Of Albany to succeed
the late Bishop McNierny took place this
morning and was Of an impressive character.
The ceremony took place at the cathedral
OF the Immaculate Conception, and not one
third Of the people desiring to witness the
event were able to get inside the large edifice.
Fully two thousand people stood along the
sidewalks. over which the procession of richly
robed prelates and priests passed on their
way to the place Of consecration.
Inside the cathedral the scene was one OF
splendor. The great altar was ablaze with
lights, and the rich thrones OF the archbishop
and the bishop were beautiful with fragrant
flowers. To this was added the magnihcence
OF the pontifcal robes and jeweled mirres,
and the background Of two hundred assisting
priests.
The music was OF lofty and inspiring
character. some Of it written especially for
the occasion by Professor Du Mauchel, the
organist of the cathedral. There were over
100 voices in the chorus, and an orchestra Of
sixty piecss in addition to the large sanctuary
choir.
The conservation sermon was preached by
the Very Rev. Dean James Duffy pastor OF
st. Johns church. Greenbush. The conse-
Grating prelate was his grace, the Most Rev.
Michael A. Corrigan. d. D., archbishop Of
New York. The assistant consecrating pre-
iates were the Right Rev. Bernard McQuade,
bishop OF Rochester; the Rev Patrick A. Lud-
den, ID. D., bishop OF Syracuse.

OFFICER INSPECTORS AND GOVERN
MENT CONTRACTS.

The developments Of fraud in the manu-
iaeture of steel armor and gun castings for
the navy lead to the question as to how long
these frauds have continued and what Is
their probable extent. The United States gov
ernment seems an easy prey to unscrupulous
contractors and army and naval officers as
contract inspectors are apparently not a
startling success.
The government has in its employ compe-
tent, capable mechanics who should be de-
tailed to supervise the work of government
contracts. Officers who have neither expe-
.ience nor education to qualify them for that
important task should be relieved and re-
turned to their regular duties.
1t is mistake to think that men trained
to the art of war are also capable ship-build-
ers, competent manufacturers of weapons, or
even good judges Of material used for these
purposes. They undoubtedly know how to
use the instruments of their calling. and pos
sess theoretical education as to the methods
of their manufacture, but when it comes to
practical knowledge and experience they are
as bereft of it as unborn babes. That fact has
been demonstrated by the easy manner
with which our officer inspectors have been
deceived and overreached by expert mechan-
les and their contractor employers. Put
mechanic inspectors in charge Of government
contracts and there will be fewer government
frauds and scandals in contract work.

THEY MAKE MANY CRIMINALS.
Rev. E. q. EIdridge Makes a Startling
Assertion Concerning Sabbath
School Pupils

''Ninety-fve per cent. of the criminals in
this country were once Sabbath school pu-
pills" said Rev. z. o. Eldridge in his dis
course last night, at Douglas Memorial church.
corner Of Eleventh and H streets northeast
Mr. Eldridge was preaching the first OF a
series OF sermons on lone of the Sins of
Washington and in the discourse quoted
from was discussing the evils of strong drink
He classified his theme under three heads the
religious. social, ana legislative, selecting as
his text Revelations. ID chapter, verses 8
and 4.
Taking up the religious aspect. he said
there were differences among men-a wide
diversity OF opiuion-as to the proper meth
DDS for suppressing the evil. but be said that
intoxicaiior was a growing sin and blight
upon the land. This country is fast becoming
n nation of drinkers. and Christian people
should unite IN a determined effort TO wipe
alcohol out of existence.
He appealed to the y, u ig men and women
to rally to the suppou of the temperance
banner. and to see 10 il h 1t it is eventually
placed upon the Capitol OF this fair Capital
city beside the nat ona flag. He pictured it
RS the fairest banner the world has ever seen
the pure white emblem OF peace
Appealing to public conscience. he said
strong drink is the corrupting. debasinS
power that is running the sons and daughters
oil the country. and TO demonstrate this and
TO prove the correctness of the assertion that
% per cent. OF the criminals of the country
had once been members OF the Sunday school
he quoted from the bureau OK statistics. and
gave Judge Noah Davis as authority for the
further statement that eight-tenths of all
crimes are directly due to the influence of
whisky. and said that at least fifty out OF
every one hundred criminals get their first
evil impulses from the first glass
There are now thirty-four saloons in
Northeast Washington" said Mr. Eliridge,
three more than there last year and several
applications are on file with favorable recon-
mendarion--this in the face of the fact that
the Commissioners assure Us of their purpose
to reduce the number"
He said revenue was what the Commission
ers considered. 1t was their effort TO put
money in the treasury that caused them to
disregard the interests of the people. He
predicted that n coming party would in
twenty-five years abolish rum from the lana
and that at the expiration of that period a
bottle would be preserved as a monument to
the blood and tears of the past. and an empty
demijohn would be treasured by antiquarigns
as one OF the sevenshorns OF the dragon Of
intemperance and symbol OF the departed
mower of alcohol
