The hail created a panic among horses
on the streets at the time and runaways
were numerous. Many Of tie drivers jump
ed from their seats and rushed to places
of shelter. Fruit trees were ruined.
At Rockdale. four miles below here. snow
covered the ground and boys and girls of

we have faith In them. They could
bring them around so that the church
and labor and capital could meet and
treat each other rs friends. There
never was any capital until labor pro-
duced it. We are willing to remurcrate
them for the money they have Invested,
but we want them to understand We
are not slaves.
I'VE want the, church to take up this
question in It's broadcast sense. not as 4
class against class. Investigate the
merits OF the case and then II the labor

claim the fact to. the world"
Rev. White, of the Second Christian
church, Of the Island. was present and
called upon for few remarks He was
In sympathy With the labor movement
and he was in favor of labor unions.
Their argument was against tho church
and not against Christianity. not
against its teachings but against its
practice When tho church attempted
to legislatc Christian doctrine they did
wrong.
Rev. David James, OF Martins Ferry,
was then called upon. He believed the
church as body ought to be identified
with the people. The time Is not yet
ripe when the church can step in as an
arbitrator between capital and labor
There nrc practices which the laboring
man has In his power TO use which he
must use before seeking directly the
assistance OF the church. The troubles
which the laborlDg man has TO contend
with are brought upon himself by him
self The greatest fault that the
church has. to contend with to-day Is
the laborIng class. The duty of the
church Is 10 harmonIza the relations OF
the human family. 80,

contend with to-day Is the liquor curse.
Christ said: let brotherly love reign In
your hearts, II we could get rid OF this
onr curse we would hnvc very few labor
troubles. When we enter into 4 strike
who Is the man who first needs the as
sstance OF the labor union? Why II Is
the man who. suuandered his money In

man does not receive a fair comp.naa-
