Fraternalism
Is the New
Notion
By Rev. DIR.
LYMAN ABBOTT
of New York

- HE notion that the nation is to protect the Individual from
the wrongdoing of OTHER INDIVIDUALS and from
other governments is passing away. The new notion OF
~ Government is a organism which hassreasop, conscience,
Judgment and will, and to this all members of the com
munity contribute. That is what we are entering on There are stl
belated men who believe that democracy is a failure. There are stl
those who are trying to ruin it by A NEW fohM vi I'll
GARCHY.FG 2# ~~gt "
So. too. in industry. There are those who believe in democracy
ip religion and politics, but that there should be a few captains in in
.Sdustry. There are Others who think the remedy is III FREE ooM-
PETITION between individuals and between corporations.
In religion there are those who still belong to the middle ages,
who want us to be ruled by creeds; not many but still some. And
there are those who believe in absolute freedom, in each man seeking
his religion IN HIS w WAY. Nl
Overagainst that [ want to put the notion of fraternaism. Society
lis an organism, a person, a unit. Government has intelligence, will
Judgment, conscience, and it will be largely what we make it. Industry
is not a mere combination of men and women struggling AGAINST
ONE ANOTHER 3
The church is great body of men united together by dominating
purpose, not. by creed or worship. In the coming age all the creeds
and sects, the Catholic and the Protestant, theJew and the Christian,
will be united by a common aim, purpose, spirit, because the coming
age is to be A FRATERNAL ONE.
Every age has its vices and its virtues. Feudalism developed 10y
atty, individualism developed enterprise and energy. But the nine
teenth century has had vices, all due to the same source.
The first vice has been that of accumulation. Put men together
and tell them to look after their own interests and push ahead, and
each man will be measuring himself BY HIS ACCOMMODATIONS
The second vice is the lawlessness of self will. We hear of the
criminal classes. Can you tell me today who belongs to the criminal
class? do the insurance directors who bought stocks low and sold
them to companies in which they were directors at high prices? DO
the railroad officials who broke the law of the land and now stand con-
victed2 Do the coal carriers who did by a gentlemen's agreement that
which was AGAINST THE AW?
In religion the tendency has been toward narrowness and secta-
Hranism. Each man has thought forNhimself and has thought that this
was all there was to be thought, This is the irreverence Of self conceit'
As we go out into life we meet these vices, but not by these names.
1t is not alone the process of the Chicago packers that needs inpec-
ton. We have MANY FALSE LABELS in this country.
THERE IS ONE REMEDY FOR ALL THIS SOCIETY SHOULD BE
CONSIDERED AS A UNIT, AND THE LAW OF SOCIETY SHOULD
BE THE LAW OF MUTUAL SERVICE.

both sides. Mr.. Northrup deserves
the thanks of the community for the
part he has taken, and there is
no doubt but that the desire of the
great majority of citizens is that the
carpenters and the bosses give the
proposition serious consideration and
strain a point or two, if necessary, to
bring about a settlement.

CHANCE NOT TO BE IGNORED.

&AhEAANSAH
Every assistance possible should
be given Rev. James II. Northrupi in
his efforts to bring peace in the pres
ent labor trouble in this CITY, Mgl.
N%orthrup, an entirely di~sipterested
party, has gone about the matter in 2
way that can bring no hard feelings
to either side. He learned the jour
neymen's side from the strikers and
he heard the bosses side from the
employers. He found out, as nearly
as possible, exactly what the bone OF
contention was and has set about in
an effort to get the two factions to-
gether.
A proposition to arbitrate has been
prepared by him, duplicate copies
made of the same and it has been
sent to both the employers and the
strikers. Both sides are now consid-
ering it.
1t is to be hoped that this PROPOSE
ton, exactly the same to both, will be
received in the spirit in which it was
sent. The strike has now been on
since May /. 1t has tied up build
ing throughout the city to a greater
or less extent and its effect is being
felt in all kinds of business. Both
sides owe it to the city and all inno-
cent parties who are suffering, as
well as themselves to get together.
Arbitration is the accepted means
of settling all disputes in these en-
lightened times and here comes a way

Logical Elimination
For Criminal Glasses
By DR.. C. FRANK LYDsToN of New York

b " Dr. c.F FRANK LYDsToN of New York
my one almost, if he or she is not a + avng maniac, can get a
- marriage license. A child of parents who hare nothing to
4 give it but sickness, or, worse, some disease, some mental
faint ior physical deformity which warps the mind, CAN
NOT COMPETE in the world.
Suppose his parents die. There is that child left alone to make his
way. He must ive-honesdy, if he can, if he can understand what
it means, BUT HE MUST LIVE. Society does not do anything
for him until he steals, and then it locks him up, and if there is any
thing lacking in his criminal education the penal institution PER
FECTS it.
We have had capital punishment for years, but still crime is slowly
on the increase, and SO is insanity. If a man is a hopeless criminal de-
generate, DON'T PUNISH him in hate; make him the subject Of
logical elimination.

fathsr,. Plea For rnsan. Son.

With tears streaming down his face ana
his voice broken with emotion, Henry b
Peters Of West Dover, Ohio. appealed to
the mayor OF Denver, Robert w. spser,
and the city attorney, II. A. Lindsey, in the
Office OF the director Of charities in the city
hall at Cleveland yesterday to secure the
pardon OF his son, Charles o. Peters, who,
with two other men. was sentenced to be
hanged for murder committed two years
ago. The two companions Of Peters paid
the penalty OF their crime upon the gal
lows, but Peterf mind gave way and he be-
came maniac. He is now confined In the
Colorado state penitentiary, the physicians
declaring that he Is hopelessly insane.
Lindsey advised the father to make an
appeal for the Communication of the death
penalty and promised to sign the petition
as the one who secured the conviction. This
win mean the detention for life of the con-
yict, as there appears to be no way for the
transferring OF Peters to an Ohio prison.
The father agreed to have the necessary
papers drawn up.

Secretary Root told the ambassador that
the claims Of American citizens had been
provided for in the treaty Of Paris, this

man claims. These claims are for small
amounts. and the aggregate is not large.
