1T IS A SUCCESS.
The Buffalo A. q. U. w. Labor Bu-
reau. Its Operations Explained.

The A. o. U. w. Labor Bureau
which has been in operation in the
City of Buffalo for several months
is evidently a very practical appli-
cation of one of the funda mental
principles Of the Order.
Work men, if true to their mem
bership pledge, should help one
another. But by reason of indiffer-
ence or want of thought this pledge
is not uniformly lived up to. What
is everybody's business is nobody's
business. Individuals either dodge
responsibility altogether or else shift
it on to other shoulders. But when
an organized effort is made, as III
the case of the Buffalo Labor Bu-
reau, good results are to be achieved
The Bureau has been established
"for the purpose of helping to Sc
cure employment for those of our
members who are unfortunate
enough to be ont of work"
This is simple and at the same
time direct and the membership in
Buffalo through the medium of the
Subordinate Lodge machinery are
encouraging the idea in satisfac-
tory manner. Twenty-four out OF
twenty five of the Buffalo Lodges
are represented in the management
of the Bureau and contribute pro
rata to its support, per capita OF
5 cents per member being paid into
the Bureau treasury each six
months. The Bureau began its
operations April 2lst, 1899, and
within four months had found EN-
ployment for about fifty Brothers
in need of work.

Not Liable For Debt.

Another very important question
of insurance law, AZ affecting life
beneficiaries in mutual benefit asso-
Citations, was decided by Judge
Samuel W. Smith in the case Of
Edward HI. Williams against Nancy
J. Donogh, where it was sought to
attach the interest of the assured in
a certificate in such association
The exemption granted by Section
1881 IS of the Statutes of Ohio was
pleaded to defeat the attachment,
and the question before the Court
was whether the law was cOnstitu.
tiOnal, the creditor claiming that
the Legislature had no right to ex-
empt funds arising from contracts
of insurance in associations organ
ICED under that section from attach
ment. The Court held the law to
be constitutional, and cited author.
tiles from other States to show that
where such laws exist the insurance
funds are exempt from attachment
by reason of the object for which
the insurance was taken out, which
object would be defeated otherwise.
The Court also cited the case OF
Meyer against the Supreme Lodge,
Knights and Ladies of Honor, by
the Missouri Court of Appeals, as
hearing upon the constitutionality
of such legislation and as showing
that, where State Legislatures have
by statute exempted such funds
from attachment for debt of the
beneficiary, the courts will enforce
such exemptions. Cincinnati En-.

The Kentucky Workman say

The Kentucky Workman says
pithily: The up-to-date business
man does not wait for the trade TO
come to him. He will hustle around
and try every means within his
power to meet it and be prepared to
reap the benefits. In these days OF
fierce competition you must seek
the trade, it will not seek you The
same principle holds good in IA fra
ternal Order, where all are partners
with an equal share in its profits
and losses. Yet how often we find
many who stand idly around as if
it were 40 concern OF theirs, and let
the responsibility of success or fail
ure fall upon the shoulders Of a few.
This method won't work in any
business enterprise and it can't be
made TO work in a fraternal Order
with success. Everyone cannot be
successful in adding new members
to the Order, but all can show a
disposition to help and try. Good
intentions have value, and the
true fraternal members appreciate
them.

GIEaIIeIEa 20. 10. IGElA


We have before us the official
paper of a Kansas society, which
processes to give the earth and some
extras thrown in, to every one who
becomes u member. Itgives death
benefit. a disability benefit, par
tial disability benefit, and several
other kinds of benefits too numer-
Gus to mention. As an additional
incentive to becoming a member of
this organization, it will issue
joint certificate on especially ad-
vantageous terms. If the terms
upon which the joint certificate is
issued were not printed 50 plainly
that it is impossible to make mis-
take, we should regard this proposal
in the line of huge joke. To find
the rate for joint certificate, the
instructions are, take the full rate
of the older person, and to this add
one-half of the rate of the younger.
In other words, this wonderful So
ciety presents to Il discriminating
public insurance at wholesale rates.
The larger the number, the less it
costs, provided you are all included
in one certificate instead of sepa-
rate certificate being issued for each.
This provision alone ought to be
sufficient to condemn the society.
Ii for one person it is worth 80
cents month for $1,000 at death,
800 year after 70 years of age,
$500 in case of total disability, and
the remainder at death, $3.50 in the
case of partial disability, and the
remainder at death, then it is only
worth As cents to give all these
benefits to the second person. In
other words, each individual must
pay 80 cents for the above said
benefits, but if the two individuals
hold a joint certificate, then it is
only worth $1.35 per month instead
Of $3.50. 1t is unnecessary to point
out the fact that this society is
promising more than it can perform.
II cannot give straight out death
benefit for 81 900 per annum at 80
cents per month for age 40 and have
a successful future. 1t is one of
those societies which is evidently
gotten up for the purpose of fooling
the American public, and there is
nowhere upon the face of the earth
people who are so ready to be
fooled as the citizens of this Re-
public. They are continually on
the LOOKOUT Tor something Tor moth
ing, and will grow enthusiastic over
schemes with large promises, but
impossible Of full6lments. The ex-
perience of the fraternal societies of
England and America ought to be
sufficient to convince an intelligent
public that the time has gone by
when any society can give gold dol
lars for copper cents. II there are,
however, class of people who think
that the impossible can be perform
ed, it is only necessary to add that
there are always designing men who
are continually fishing with just
this kind of bait in order to catch

by Bishop Hurst, of the northwestern

by Dr. Charles Parkhurst, of the Zion
Herald, against General Secretary
Schell, of the Epworth League, resulted
in vindication of the secretary. Not
only did the committee exonerate DR..
Schell, but so earnest was the confer
ence in expressing its confidence in him
that the following resolution censuring
Ibis accuser was unanimously adopted
by the conference:
Resolved, That inasmuch as the
facts in the matter of the conduct OF
DIR. Schell have been thoroughly can
vassed by the board of control of the
Epworth League, and as they have de-
clared that no further action by them is
required, we deplore and condemn the
editor of the Zion Herald in further agi-

JONES DEFENDS CANDIDACY.
Gives Reasons why Ohioans should

Gives Reasons Why Ohtoans Should
Elect q Non-Partisan Governor.
Toledo, o., Sept. S.-Mayor Jones to-
day issued an address on THE Duty of
the Hour" of which the following is
part:
The time is ripe to inaugurate new
program Of reason in place Of revenge,
and Of love instead Of hate. The people
have long been disheartened by the
cruel and tyrannical leadership of po-
litical parties. No further evidence is
needed Of this truth than to point to the
more than Is per cent Of our voting pop
ulation who voluntarily absent them
selves from the polls on election day,
feeling that the government has been
go utterly given over to the venal sys-
tenn of party politics that none but the
bosses longer have any voice in it. AS
rule these men are as loyal, as pa
triotic and as loving as those who go
lheroically to the polls and caucuses year
after year in the vain hope to amend a
system that is corrupt because 1t is
based upon a false philosophy.
TO organize new party is to pros
vide new set of bosses, but to organize
u non-partisan movement. leaving
every voter absolutely free to vote for
principle wherever he sees it, whatever
name may be flying over 1T, is to make a
fundamental, radical departure from
the old idea of the divine right of kings
in the direction Of larger liberty and
freedom than we have ever yet known.
Parties can not be maintained without
machines;' machines can not exist
without spoils. BY adopting and
standing for direct nomination by petit
ton as a fundamental principle we re-
move every possibility of the organiza-
ton of machine leave the people free
to select their own candidates and open
the way for direct legislation just as
soon as the people are ready for it.
THE great mass of the people of Ohio
are ready today to inaugurate new
era, the beginning of the reign of rea-
son and of love instead of the reign of
revenge and hate. They only need to
| have the truth placed before them. Both
the democratic and the republican cam
paigns will be well supplied with money
with which to poison the people. The
result will be a 'stand-off.'

Vice Presidents Health May Not
Permit Him to Accept.
Long Branch, n. j., Sept. 9.-Here are
the facts about MIR. Hobart attitude on
the question of a denomination for the
vice presidency. Mr.. Hobart is anything
but we'll man. He is lighting with all
his strength and power to regain the
splendid health that he enjoyed before
becoming part of the Mckinley adj
ministra ton.
Mr.. Hobart is not in a condition to
take any active part in politics. and I'M
less there is soon q marked improve
ment his family and friends will veto
imperatively all attempts to put upon
him any political burden. Personally
Mr. Hobart would prefer to retire for
the present ON his well-earned laurels.
He has won all the glory that is posi-
bic in the Office, and has been more of
a coadjutor to the president than any
other vice president in the nations his
tory Even if his health permitted,
Mr.. Hobart would not care to take the
nomination again unless the president
and his party associates wished it. in
lorder to avoid awakening complications
and clashing of geographical and per-
isonal ambitions.
Mr. Hobart is not the sort of man,
however, to view complacently possible
attempts TO sidetrack him on the part
of politicians who may have their eyes
on his seat. He is something of a fight
er when once stirred up, and If an effort
We're made to retire him. willy nilly, he
could be depended upon to help make
things interesting. AS matters stand
now he is rather inclined to let some
body else have a chance at the honors
and hard work which have fallen to his
lot in the last two years.
1t is probable that the selection of
lGovernor Roosevelt as his successor
would please Mr.. Hobart about as we'll
as any choice that could be made.

st. Louis, Mo-, Sept. civilian G.
Pape. assistant park commissioner of

front of his home last night by Henry
Frey, young peddlar, who shortly af-
terward turned his revolver into his
own mouth and shot himself. dying in

shooting.
Pape was sitting on the steps with
his son in front of his house at 1895
Pennsylvania avenue at 8 O'Clock when
Frey drove up in his peddlers wagon
He walked up, and, 1t is thought. asked
Pape why he did not get him license
for peddling.
Pape replied: II would like to. Henry
but / can't"
Frey then pulled large revolver from
his hip pocket and fired at Pape, who
had risen. He then ran out of the gate
and jumped into his wagon, whipping

run. AZ he drove away he hred three
other shots at Pape.
The hrst shot OF the four was the
only one to take effect ana Pape fell TO
the steps.
Frey went down the street couple
OF blocks with Pape's son following him.
Neighbors Joined in the chase He
rounded corner, and the increasing
crowds frightened the horse into a
ditch. Frey was thrown out to-
ward the sidewalk close to a policeman,
who had Joined in the pursuit.
Frey. seeing that he would be cap
tured, calmly faced the approaching
people and, pushing his revolver into
his mouth, pulled the trigger. The bull
let went through the top Of his head
and he fell dead at the feet Of Papes
son.
Meanwhile Pape was suffering ago.
MES. He had been carried into his
house and medical attendance was Civ
en- him. He was Unconscious for q half
hour preceding his death, which came
about an hour after the first shot had
been fired. He was unable to make any
statement regarding the affair.
Pape had wide acquaintance among
the politicians Of all classse in st. Louis
and bore an excellent reputation. He
was 48 years old.
Frey was young man and had been
in many troubles before the fatal ter
mination of his life. He had been drink
| ing before the shooting. and 1t is
thought that he was drunk when he
| fired the shots. 1t Is said that he had
ben after Pape for some time in order to
get license. but Pape could or would
not get him one. 1t is thought that this
matter preyed on Frey's mind.
