manner. The millionaire class is re
spCnsible for the slaughter of September
10. and we regard the torch as the NOS
successful weapon to WELD against
them"
Fitzgerald Murphy, president Of branch
Nc. .. made a speech, in which he said
The miners shCuld carry arms. and
use them, TOO. The time has cUme to
meet force and force. 1 should have told
them to shoot to kill. | would kill 90
mi.l:onaires today"
Strong condemnation resolutions were

On another page of this Issue OF The
News we present some facts relating
TO the religion or denomination OF
Christian Science as IL exists in this city.
In his religion. tho Christian Scientist
seems To find n peace. comfort and inspi-
ration rivnlling in abundance anything OF
the sort that any other denomination can
offer.
The blindest idolatry, indeed, does not
seem to inspire moro OF faith and con-
fidence than does this new religion which
professedly appeals to Intelligence and
exposition as basis OF faith.
70 the popular mind, Christian Science
has TO do only with cures and healing OF
the physical body through mental treat
ment.
That IL is religion. a sect. church
denomination will doubtless be news to
many of our readers.
We briefly tell about II in this interesting
and informing article. 1t IL worth read
ing by men and women of all croeds and
denominations for IL is an active fact in
our progressive civilization.
It is with us and OF us astonishingly
vital, though having an existence that is
hardly a generation old.
