Cole. 'Tt Is just as wrong for the working man to demand eight hours nav for six hours work as 1t is for the employer to pay only six hours wages for eight hours work.
 ''In some places there is belet on the part of the working man that the church is prejudiced against him. This is not so. This idea has originated largely from the hoarse mouthings of anarchistic aKitators and from those who spent thousands a year in saloons and not a cent in churches.
 Other ministers followed with sim liar expressions and Dr. Cole made suggestion that 1t might be a good plan for the ministers to seek repre- sentation on the floor of labor bodies so that they could speak and advise with the laboring man. pr. Jennings declared that this plan had proven a failure when tried before.
 The wage question has been crowd ed to the limit" he declared. If this thing keeps on much further the break ing point will certainly be reached.
 If the workingman does not so to church. it's because the working man does not want to go to church.
