European Pauper Labor"

Rev. A. Hoffman spoke last night at
the First Methodist church in prelude
| to short sermon from Rev. Harwood,
| the missionary in the local Mexican
| work. Mr.. Hoffman said European
paupers labor was an expression often
! used in this country in reference to a
form of civilization in Europe. He had
| heard one political party charge an
other with Introducing pauper labor
into this country from Europe, but the
true situation is generally m sunder-
stood. All people who labor must
receive sufficient on which to live
They may not acquire wealth, but they
must exist in some way, and as far as
possible, comfortably. The speaker
had been travelling in foreign countries,
and no where did he see such squalOr
and idleness IS in the United States.
One reason, perhaps for this. was that
the police regulations in Europe are
far more extended and better enforced
than in this country, and reduced beg
ging to its lowest terms: and more
over, governments take pain to see that
their people are pretty. generally en-
plOyed. a paterDalism that does not
obtain in the United States. Moreover
employment is much more divided in
Europe than in this country, and money
Is correspoudingly scattered in distrl
button. Then the purchasing power of
money Is more tnan In the u n1te0
States. The German mark buys more
than our quarter, and often more than
our dollar does here. One man had
told Mr.. Hoffman that he could not
buy more with dollar in the United
States than with shilling in England.
Wages in Englard are relatively high
err in England than in Germany, and
are largely the same as in this country,
while the purchasing power is greater.
Pauper labor is misnomer in Europe
but by the Introduction of contract la
Dor here from the sclavs in Poland and
Russia, American labor is driven to the
wall. Pauperized labor is not to be
charged on tie people who come over
but to the account of the operators who
bring it over a1d who must take the
consequences of their greed.
The outcome of the whole thing is
this, that the larger estates now in the
hands of men will not always remain
here. By a wide dispensstion of
divine providence it is only a matter
of time before great aggregations of
wealth will be redistributed: they will
accrue for the benefit of the many.
The education of the masses make
them to know their rights, and they
will not be slow in reaching out to
secure them.

America the True PaIe.tine.

At meeting iu New York city of
the Independent Order of Free Sons of
Israel, the grand master said of q
proposition to secure enough Jewish
emigrants to Palestine to form a sep
arate state under Jewish control:
"This project is chimerical and will
never come to life. One-fourth of the
Jews of the world have made their
homes in the United States, and it has
been their proudest boast to say, 4 am
an American This is the true Pales-
tine of the world, the greatest country
on earth for our race" The senti-
ments were received with what seemed
to be unanimous approval. Any big
city in America is good enough

trious, shrewd business Hebrews are
helping to build up the United States
cities.

The Strait Gate.

Rev. Mr.. Gladney of Cerrillos
preached in Trinity yesterday to large
congregations at both services. In
the morning he preached from the
greater part of the fifth chapter of
Matthew. He took what some people
would call narrow and ilIiberal
grounds, while with others what he
says is held to be straight gospel and
the only road to eternal life. The
speaker gave it out straight that the
only way to achieve eternal life was to
enter in at the strait and narrow gate
