in a ''frenzied'' condition that il
ever was-in recent years in this
county. Prices are too high, pro-
baby to remain very long in the
present notches. 1t is said that all
Portland horses are over worked

ing out over two hours the jury this
evening returned verdict of not guilty
in the case of Albert NJ. Mercer, ON
trial for perjury. The case was remov-
ed here from Frederick county and has
been on trial for several days. 1t is
understood the cases against the ira

swo falsely in the Frederick county
Orphans Court that their father, Will
liam A. Mercer had died without a
will. Mercer left two wills. The first
was sigued by witnesses, but the last
will was not. The sons, under
the impression that the last will was
the legal document. destroyed the first
will
The father left an estate valued at
$4,000 unequally among his children,
who, at a family council, determined
to destroy the will and divide the es-
tate equally. When letters of admin
istration were asked for they took the
formal oath that no will had been left.

EooLlsHNess, ALL FooLlsHNEss.

Chicago unions are whlstling against
the wind with their anti-injunction
league scheme and their slogan about
free speech and trial by jury" The
plan looks good on paper. but it isn't
worth hurrah in Halifax. Judges
who issue injunctions like that issued
by Holdom, or those issued by Jack
son of Pennsylvania, do not care
snap about public sentiment, and all
the anti.injunction leagues this side OF
the river Jordan would have no more
effect on them than water on ducks
hack. Why fool away valuable time
on such visionary schemes?
There Is just one cure for the in
junction evil-law. And there is just
one way to get the law-elect the right
men to the legislature and to congress.
And there is just one way to elect such
rep--vote for them regardless of their
nolitical Affiliations. The remedy for
every evil of political or civic nature
than labor endures today has remedy

CHURCH AND LABOR CO-OPERAT.
ING

The churches do care for the work
ingman. That is why they sometimes
go to the shop at the noon hour in the
person of the preacher and others, to
present the gospel of love and fellow
ship. That is why they go to the work.
ingmans home in the person of the
church visitor. That is why they min.
lister to the everyday needs of work
ingmen, as they have opportunity.
While there are occasions when the
church should come out boldly in be-
half of particular reform measure, a
moments reflection will convince the
honest critic that general propo-
ganda in behalf of every social reform
measure which men sometimes expect
the church to advocate. would soon re-
suit in endless confusion.
Far better is it to apply the prin-
ciples of Christ to these problems, SO
that there may be a constant factor
at work, which. in the end, will accom-
plish more than the agitation in favor
of temporary measure.
1t was not the intention of the
founder of the church that it should
become an annex to any social, indus
trial or political organization; but by
furnishing Christian sentiment, the
church disturbs the wrong wherever
it exists.
Our churches are democratically or
ganized. Laboring men have the fran.
chise in our churches as fully as in
our democratic nation. The church
invites them to take as full a share in
its government and work as they will.
Whatever misunderstanding may
have existed in the past are being re-
moved by closer acquaintance and a
mutual interchange of views. An in
stitution which rests on a Christian
basis should be in close fellowship
with the church of Jesus Christ. 1t
cannot take its place. nor can the
church take the place of the labor
union. But the two can work together
in harmony in the common effort to
uplift our fellowmen, and SO to i'm
prove their condition as to make pos
sible their moral and spiritual develop
ment. thus fitting them for happiness
in this life and in the life to come.
The church and labor are not only
co-laborers one with another, but to-
gether with Christ, who died that sin
and selfshness might be destroyed,
and He has sent us forth against the
same old enemies. We cannot afford
to present divided Yront to the enc
my. The church and labor must unit
eddy concentrate their attention, their
sympathy, their love and their choicest
powers as Christ did his.
The church needs the workingman
in this battle, just as the workingman
needs the church.-Rev. Charles
Stelzle.

are. not allowed the death benefit if
not paid up. But If you can't pay up
go anyway and show your good inten-
ton, for your going may be the means
of some one else going. We should
not belong to the union just because
it's necessary to have a card to work
in certain shops, but that we may be
help to one another and thereby help
ourselves.
When we hear a man say, The
union never helped me-" we know he
is working long hours for small wages.
Roosevelt says, More children"
Capital says, Longer hours Unions
say, Shorter hours, and employ what
we have
What Lincoln needs is more active
workers in the unions, men that live
their unionism.
Some say that and that is the Off
GERS duty to look after things. 1t is
all our duty to be there and help the
officers, and see that they are not i'm
posed on by unprincipaled employers
and others. 1t is no snap to be an Off
Ger. They get the credit for all the
meanness of the union.
Every one should take and read The
Wageworker. Just stop and think
what that little paper has done for the
workingmen and unionism of Lincoln
and vicinity. 1t has set people to
thinking and opened the eyes of some,
including the pulpit, to what unionism
really is, to such an extent that it is
being talked and lived more now than
ever before.
