Europe and of Christianity; but, for
this, his holiness declared it to be es-
sential that he should be restored his
liberty as an independent temporal SOW
ereign. This demand, however, met
with no response, as far as foreign gov
ernments were concerned. and the
hopes which had been expressed in
some quarters that the German empe-
ror's visit to the pope in 1888 might
lead to Germany advocating the tenn
poral claims of the holy see were soon
dissipated
Perhaps the most remarkable feature
of the late pope's policy was the change
in the attitude which the Vatican had
hitherto preserved in regard to the
French republic. At the beginning of
Pope Leo's reign the Identification of
the clergy with the royalist movement
caused an antagonism to all that sa-
vored of religion, which at one time
bid fair to lead to the early separation
of church and state in France. Alive
to the danger of the situation, the
pope sought to concifiate the republic

farmer living in this vicinity should

The Dishguring Of Highway Trees

marring and disfiguring of trees along
highways wherever the limbs interfere
with telegraph or telephone lines. The
men who do this work have no regard
for anything and thousands of beauti-
full shade trees have been ruined by
these vandals. As a rule the compan-
les pay nothing for the right to use
the highways, and then proceed as il

IAN Increase in Wages"

To hear the Bellows Falls Times de
fine an increase in wages, one wouit
infer that the public suffered con
slant martyrdom at the hands O.
;ts business men and their employees
It saws that when manufacturing con
Germs, or the employers OF plumbers
carpenters and masons increase the
wages of their help, that increase does
not come out of the business, but ou'
of the public using the product OF the
work. "The dear people, i" it adds, IN
variably get the hot end of the poker y
There are always two sides, at least,
to every question, and this is no ex-
ception. In the case of great corpora
tions which have obtained absolute
control of certain industrial lines and
are compelling enormous profits, what
the Times says is unquestionably true
But the people have only themselves TO
blame for this state of affairs. ihey
have. by their individual shortslghted
greed and by trucking to wealth and
"bossism, made it possible for these
arbitrary conditions of money and pow
err to exist. Even now they need not
live under such conditions if they Will
only stand up, be honest themselves
and make an honest claim for the
rights that are theirs. The power that
regulates matters in this country rests
with our individual voters and they
need not foster industrial tyranny IN
less they choose.
But, outside of these cases, there
are thousands of industrial concerns
that are only making the legitimate
profit due to any business enterprise.
If, in the affairs Of such, an increase OF
wages is asked and becomes necessary,
where, but from an increase in the cost
of the product, should it come! II the
increase in wages is just, the product
is Justly worth more and it is quite
right that the public should pay the
just worth.
Employers are not all rolling in
profits and scheming and grasping for
more. Many a concern has advanced
wages of its own free will, when 1t
found the profits of the business war
ranted such action, without advancing
the cost of its product. Indeed, en-
Mo!yFers as class are no more avaric'
iops than anybody else. 1t is only
