Washington Deemed the Most Suitable
Place for General Headquarters.
Since the acknowledged failure of the A.
R. U. strike there has been manifest tend
ency on the part of the labor leaders to urge
their followers to unite for the betterment Of
wage-earners in politics. President Debs, of
the A. r. u, has proclaimed this as their
wisest course. Representative Hudson, of
Kansas, said yesterday:
Il have no doubt this movement to found
headquarters Of the labor organizations in
Washington will be successful. 1t is not in
tended to remove the existing headquarters
of the Knights of Labor from Philadelphia or
to bring the central Offices of any order here,
but merely to have headquarters where repre-
sentatives of laboring organizations will be
maintained, who can work in the interests of
labor. The true friends of laboring men have
always advised them to avoid strikes and have
recourse to the hailot for the betterment of
their condition as a class. There is a greater
tendency toward united work among The diff
ferent organizations at this time than ever
before. This tendency was manifested in the
petition fo- the free coinage of silver. and
against interest on bonds which was recently
presented TO the House from united labor"
1t is understood that the organizations will
maintain agents here TO look after their politi-
cal interests. as some of them do now, but
that these representatives will be expected to
cooperate for the furtherance of legislation
deemed to be for their interests.

Edmund Allis' Rascality Comes TO Light in
Divorce Court Proceedings.
SAN FRANcIsco, Aug. ga strange story
OF one mans perfldy has come to light in the
divorce court here. Mrs. Annie Allis, an
employe of a New York publishing house,
has begun an action for the annuIIment OF n
divorce which her husband. Edmund C.
Allis, obtained from her il San Benito county,
this State, in April last.
The proceedings reveal another chapter in
n domestic episode that startled society in St.
Paul. Mimi, in 1885, At that time Edmund
c. Allis was an attorney in that city and a
pillar of Christ Church. He disappeared
mysteriously, and first it was announced that
he had defaulted with funds of which he was
treasurer. 1t transpired that he had eloped
with girl named Sophie Sanderson, who
had been friend of Mrs Allis in Philadel-
phia before her marriage.
Mrs. Allis traced the guilty couple to
Louisville There Allis deserted the Sander
derson girl VINO went back to her home in
Philadelphia, and the wronged wife finally
forgave Allis and went 10 live with her hus-
band Ill Boston. She was doomed TO disap-
pointment, however, for according TO the
complaint filed to-day her husband deserted
her again in 1888. running away with girl
referred 10 IN the complaint as Emma,
whose ruin he had accomplished. This girl,
it is alleged. was deserted in the West
From 1888 until the present year Mrs. Al
lis heard nothing more of her recreant
spouse. Her first information was received
in April last. when she learned OF the divorce
obtained in California under allegations of
desertion and extreme cruelty. Allis, it is
charged. represented that his wife was a resi-
dent OF New London. Conn, and caused the
summons to be mailed there, knowing that it
was not likely TO reach her. Allis has since
married an estimable young lady named
Stevens, whose parents reside at Santa Rosa,
this state. His discarded wife is out for ven
geance 1t is her intention to secure the an
nullment of the San Benito county divorce
and to prosecute the recreant husband for

HONEST MEN AT DISADVANTAGE.
In answer to the contention that the true
question is not whether the products OF
ability shall go to society ultimately, but
whether they shall be distributed to society
under the direction Of the producing ability.
Mr.. Kent said the position Of the churches
that rich men are only Gods stewards is
merely theory; it does not get into practice.
1--WE see clearly that the theory cannot be

system under which the struggle for gain
goes on Is one that inevitably puts the kindly
generous. honest, and scrupuious man at a
disadvantage. It puts a premium on STRAIT
egy, and cunning, and deceit. 1t impeIs to
methods which no standard of ethics can
sanction, or drives one into failure Besides,
this theory supposes that the chief needs OF
the masses can be met by charity. But char
ity inevitably increases the pauperism it seeks
to relieve. If the wealthy were ten times
more charitable, they would only aggravate
the evil. The steward theory must be aban-
doned.
Political equality demands as It's working

COOPERATION WOULD FOSTER IT
No Mans Powers Belong to Him Exclusively
I'm Their Exercise He Ought to Benefit
His Fellow Man-Falss Position Of the
Churches as to Mems Stewardship.

Though good congregation was present
at the Peoples Church. No. 423 G. street
northwest, at IL a. m, the value of the Rev
Alexander Kents address was not at all
measured by the size Of his audience. He
was heard throughout with interest
His subject was ability and Accountable
ity." First he pointed out that men oi
ability usually are their own masters and are
apt to forget that they are accountable to any
power. They easily come to consider them
selves the ultimate source of the power they
possess. They recognize the authority of the
law so far as enforced, and the duty of such
honesty and fair dealing as business stand
ards provide for, but their professions of re-
sponsibility TO q power above human law is
mostly no more than vague sort of senti-
ment resting on inherited traditions. II
exerts no control over them.
Many of these, he said, do indeed have toll
erably rational conceptions Of what a true
self-lntere8t involves, and so find personal
qualification In much that contributes to the
general we'll being; but the feeling with most
Is that what they do for others is a favor and
not at all duty. A settled business maxim
Is that ability is entitled to all it can win by
methods which the law allows. The great
conflict between socialism and its opponents
hinges on the Legitimacy of this contention.
DIR. Kent then cited W. II. Maliock's articles
in the Fortnightly Review on the Fabian
essays, in which that writer contends that any
system of industry which denies to ability
this alleged right OF getting allit can. in com
petition with weakness and incompetency, is
a system that is doomed TO failure and sure TO
bring social ruin should if be tried.
