CHRISTIAN. UNITY.

Mr.. Gladstone's famous letter intended
for the Pope, mas had the effect which
might have been supposed, says Reyn-
| olds' Newspaper. It has forced to the
front and compelled attention to the prob
! lem OF the relation OF the Anglican
Church to Rome; it has gratifed extreme
High Church opinion; it has probably
been very acceptable to the Holy See;
and it has at length had the effect Of
perceptibly alternating to some extent
Non -conformist sympathy from Mr.. Clad ia !.
stone; and 1t has directly helped In that
way to widen the gulf which has opened
between & the Nonconformists and the
Irish Home Rulers. Putting aside all
extraneons matter, let us ask ourselves '
what is likely to be the future relation
between the Roman Catholic Church, and
this country. It is plain in the first place,
that Catholicism is growing. s#t
The history Of mankind shows period
of scepticism is always followed by a per-
Tod Of religious fervor. A generation ago
|Agnosticism was the prevalent tendency
among the cultured, SeoMarism among
the more intelligent of the masses. AT
present both are manffestly in state of
rapid decline. A new movement OF the
current has brought us into period Of
strong ecclesiastical revival, and 1t Is in
evitable that the Catholic Church should
be the chief gamer by this new move
ment We may expect, then, for some
years Catholic gains. Other religious
bodies may share in this too, but all OF
them put together are feeble and small
compared with the great historic, Church
Of Western Christendom, the only one
which carries unbroken the Church tra-
dition, which is not a mere national con-
Germ like the Anglican, and which is not
fettered by any Parliament: We cannot
doubt that an increasing number Of High
Anglicans are Catholics in all but name,
and we believe that whenever Parliament
shall disestab1ish the Anglican Church
many Of these will follow the example
of Newman and Manning and go over
to the Roman Catholic Church.
AS we approach the twentieth century,
there are signs everywhere Of religion
becoming a more and more dominating
factor in public matters. The real con-
troversy will not be one of religion
against anti-religion, but Of freedom Of
thought In religion as against hard
bound and rigid ecclesiastical authority
at least, SO it seems to us. At present,
however, the great fact to fix our minds
on is the growth Of Catholic feeling in
this country and the gain which must
accrue therefrom to the Church Of Rome,
together with the false and feeble posi-
tion of the Anglican Church. 10.

POPS AND sILvERlTEs.

The Populists and free silver men will
hold their national conventions in St. Louis
on July 22-Wednesday next-ar1d 1t is
generally agreed that Bryan will be either
nominated or endorsed by, both bodies as
their candidate for president. The Popu-
lists will endorse the entire Democratic
platform as framed at Chicago and perhaps
will nominate some other man than Sewall
for the vice presidency II, this can be. con-
veniently done. Minnesota will be we'll
represented at both conventions. .s.
The Populists will have 1850 delegates,
representing over 100000 voters, and will
meet>in the same building in which the Re
publican convention was recently held.
The silver men will have 1,2O03 delegates
and the two bodies win vie with each other
as to which shall contain the greater num-
Der Of attendants and exhibit the greater
amount Of enthusiasm. The conventions
will last at least q coupe OF days. 1t is
thought that William p. st. John, who was
recently forced to retire from the presi-
dency Of the American National Bank Of
New York because of his advocacy of free
silver, will be chairman OF the silver COM
yent.on. Two propositions will most like
" confront the conventions. One is that
the Popul,sts shall abandon any idea Of q
separate and distinct national ticket and
indorse outright the candidates and the
platform Of the Chicago convent ion. This
proposition would be supported by the
friends Of Senator Henry N. Teller, nearly

Boston, July 6.-Onj last Thursday
there was q meeting at the Arkwright
club, composed of treasurers OF New
print cloth mill corporations, at
which committee reported that man
ayers Of over 1900, 900 spindles In Mas
sachusetts, Rhode Island and Connect
cut had signed an agreement to ourtail
the production during the months of
July and August. i E.2s7s
ut was also reported that there were
already enough spindles then running
short time in the southern New Eng
land states to bring the aggregate to
over 5000, 900.
las consequence, the greatest cur
tailment in the history Of the textile in
dustry Of New England is now taking
place. Mill men say that this action is
necessary, as they are carrying large
stocks, due to .oYerprod uction. which
cannot be disposed o. except at ruinous
prices e. $.. IS
Recalling what we have already said
about the cause OF overproduction, we
can see how the mill hands in Massa-
chusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island,
who have no work to do, are affected BY
the financial system which compels the
farmer to sell the products Of his Ia Dor at
a small price. " Fl r. So 5,isy.s d.
Besides curtailing production, through
underconsumption, dear money, or, in
other words, gold, paralyzes enterprises
OF all kinds when prices are falling,
which is the first effect Of dear money.
Capital is shy of Investment for the rea-
son that money invested under these
circumstances will not bring the investor
the profits he has right to expect. He
would make more by letting his money
lie idle because, thanks to falling prices,
be would, in few years, purchase more
property Of all kinds with the samel
amount of money than he could before
The purchasing power Of money was in
creased by making gold. the measurer Of
all values. But idle capital means idle
labor. Here, again, the wage worker
suffers the penalty dear money or gold
lnfiets upon q community in which it
fastens itself. /,
We have tried to answer the question,
How does it affect me personally? If the
reader has been convinced that the
money question is a personal question
for him we have accomplished what we
have set out to do. Every wage worker
In the land is interested in defeating the
conspirators who are plotting to make
money dear. He owes it to himself and
to his family not to place his ballot at
the service Of these conspirators.

garding the resumption of the sewer work
as affecting the lines OF this street railway
on streets the sewers will be laid upon.
This conference was continuance of
the special conference held few days

city and this car company will come to an
understanding whereby the car tracks on
some streets can be taken up and the
sewers laid In the middle Of the streets,
and on some others will be laid on the side
Of tracks. A proposition was made by
Mr.. Weiss to withdraw the Injunction on
Avenue G, If the grade of the sewers Ware
lowered, and to this the city has com
sented.

Texas Is as much entitled to a fair share
