Representative Bourke Cochran.
Copyright 1904 by Clinedinst Washington, D. C.)
system by one man; a combination of labor
is required. Under Christian teachings
men are now persuaded TO labor; formerly
they were coerced. The speaker likened
the workingman to the ever-patient and
useful donkey which on Palm Sunday car
ried Christ into Jerusalem. But RESPONSE
bility marking new era came with this
divine burden.
Mr.. Cochran stated his belief that the
wage scale is the sole test of prosperity;
that every man of every class seeks to
better himself, but 1t must be recalled that
all progress the world now knows results
from the voluntary cooperation OF labor.
The part of a mans production which he is
allowed to retain is wages, and 1t is I'M
doubtedy true that the employer gains
most from highly paid employees. The in
creased efficiency of the laborer not only
adds to his wages, but opens demand
for other forms of labor. The fountain of
wages is created by the laborer. The profit
of production is distributed to other agen-
cies of labor through the employer or o
per cent representing the return TO the
capitalist for the use of his money and the
assumption of the risk.
Reversion to Servitude.
To establish socialistic principles, the
speaker argued, is to revert to servitude
Private enterprise can produce goods at
much less cost than is possible IL manu-
facture were attempted by the state. The
socialist would make the state the sole
producer of goods. This would mean the
loss of the independent workman and the
introduction of compulsory labor. with the
inevitable result of curtailment of wages.
No mere agreement between employer and
employee can settle the wage question. The
condition of production must be the cri-
terion. Too small profit will bankrupt
capital, while too high profit in any sin
gle line of production will destroy other In
dustries and produce ruinous competition.
To augment at once the profit of capital
and the wage of labor the volume of pro-
duction must be increased. 1t is the only
plan.
In conclusion Mr.. Cochran claimed that
service is partnership In industry, as is
equality in citizenship. and that no mutual
confidence and lasting agreement will ever
be established between capital and labor
until the principles of Christianity DON'T
nate the transactions of the business world.
Great interest was manifested throughout
the sermon" Following MI Cockran's
remarks President Donovan of the
AIoysious Club called on Rev. Michael
OKane, S. j., who had given retreat to
the men of St. Aloysius parish. for remarks.

WILL CLOSE TONIGHT
SERIES OF MEETINGS IN BEHALF
OF PROHIBITION.
Address Last Night by Rev. E. Ten
nyson Smith at First Presby-
terrain Church.

In introducing Rev. E. Tennyson Smith
to his congregation at the First Presby-
terrain Church last evening, Rev. Donald C.
Macleod said: ut Is with pleasure that l
greet the magnificent audience before me
on this Indictment evening. i do not be-
lieve that any other subject than temper
ance and prohibition would have caused
such congregation to gather here this
evening. 1t shows how the people of Wash
ington feel upon the subject"
+ In his opening prayer before introducing
Mr.. Smith he dweIt upon the evils of the
liquor traffic as one of the sins of the world
with which the church of God has to con-
tend, saying that II was one of the great
est evils with which the church and civili-
cation has to deal.
/ Mr.. Smith, in commencing his lecture,
took occasion to emphasize his former
statements that until the forces in the
Christian churches Joined hands the fight
against the evil was futile.
He said that when he was preparing to
leave Birmingham, England, for America,
September 81, 1904 that his friends had a
special meeting to wish him a successful
crusade in this country. and that the text
for his talk that occasion was: 1T IS
a faithful saying and worthy Of all accep-
tation. that Christ came into the world to
save sinners"
The first talk he gave In Boston, so he
said. was from the text, Christ came not
into the world to save the righteous. but
those that were lost" He declared that
no lasting good. no permanent cure or re-
vival of the people could be wrought except
through the power of God
The w. C. r T.. the Rechabites and the
Good Templars are a great power for good,
but he admonished every member of each
organization to take the other step and
come out for the Lord. He declared that
the members of these organiZa lions who
accomplished most were members of the
church of the living God.
