Rev. Dwight Hills Says Trades Orsaniza.
tons Reduce Men to Level of Worst
Workmen.

Chicago, Dec. 14.-Tbe Rev.
Newell Dwight Hills, pastor of the
Plymouth church, Brooklyn, N. Y,
delivered sermon today at Stude-
baker Hall on the text: every
Man Shall Give an Account of Him
self to God; Let Every Man Bear
His Own Burdens"
"Trades unions" declared Mr..
Hills, "level men down. They run
a moving machine along and cut off
the heads of the stronger, the taller
men, and reduce tn em to the level
of the worst laborer. The free
school, the press and the church of
God level men upward, starting at
the other end and lifting the lowest
to the side of the best. Does the
trades union help each and every
workman to make the most possible
of himself? Or does it limit, dwarf
and repress him? If so it is doomed.
sit is not the combinations that
make our country the great republic
that we hope it is. 1t is the indivi-
dual effort of each man that has
helped to lift this nation to the top
most plane. Destroy this individual
lty and you destroy the greatness of
our republic"

CON, ,,,assioner of Hygiene.

Two years ago the Clarion urged
the passage OF the Hygiene bill
because it was then endorsed by
the State Medical, Pharmaceutical,
Sanitary, Agricultural, 8 to X
Breeders, societies, and the Mobile
Quarantine Convention. It passed
both branches OF the General AS
sembly, and received the vote of
the entire st. Landry and Acadia
delegations, for which they deserve
due praise.
The measure has come up again
this session as house bill No. Is, by
Mr.. Ventress. The Governor hav-
ing vetoed it two yeaas ago onsthe
grounds that the revenues at that
time did not warrant the passing
of so "meritorious q measure 2
which was aregretfully refused, as
il acould be Deferred to such time
as the revenues of the State were
in better shape, that time, accard=
ing to Auditor Frazee's report, ts at
hand.
The State Agricultural aud Stock
Breeders Societies, at their last
meeting at Columbia, Reimbursed
the measure, and the State Medi-
cal Society, at their recent meet
ing in Shreveport, unanimously
adopted a resolution memorable
ing to pass the bill. The Picayune,
i'm a recent editorial under the cap
ton /" Preaching Sanitation strong
ly supports It. It is the strongest
addition to the curriculum of pub
lie education made In the century,
because, aLife is not mere living,
but the enjoyment of health = and
public education in hygiene means
not only reduced death rate, but
| the saving of millions.
The Clarion hopes that House
Bill No. 7a viii go through, and
that the Governor will his way
clear to sign II.
