SAYS TOLL IS DEMOCRATIC
Minister Declares Labor Is the Evolu-
ton Of Happiness.


Rev. Frank C. Bruner, pastor of the
Oakwoods Union church, Chicago,
preached recently on 'The Democracy
of Culture" taking for his text: Man
goeth forth unto his labor and to his
work until the evening. Psalms, civ.
%. He said in part: "The idea held
that labor is a curse to the race is a
misnomer. In it is an evolution of big
happiness. Its advent was not or
dained in mans transgression. God
made it in affinity with heroic hui
mainly The being of incidence is
fraud to society; the man who does
not work breaks the commandment of
God and the tired-born who never
draw an Industrious breath are, in
common language, thieves.
.'They rob the world of toilhood,
take unearned bread to live on. We
talk about the laboring class; there is
no such thing in the economy of God.
No man, if he be as rich as Croesus,
Rockefeller or Sage, but what is toll
worn as the man who works on the
railroad section carries the hod of
brick or the woman that YEARLY works
in the washtub world So many look
on labor as the product of sin and the
chief disgrace of mankind. The
democracy of labor is the superlative
end of man. Such an example as the
Carpenter of Nazareth proves the
honor of labor and it's adaptability for
the benefit of mankind"

STAND PAT FOR.
DAY LABOR

Commissioner O'Brien is still
championing day labor despite the
call-down given him in the city
council the other night when the
council ordered the board of works
to ask for bids on a concrete struc.
ture for Mission av. O'Brien and
Commissioners Witherspoon and
WetZel had already started the
work by day labor and are continu-
ing it in tearing out the old bridge
and preparing a temporary struc-
ture to carry the water main.
O'Brien met the bridge committee
yesterday afternoon and suggested
that the committee recommend to
the council that the board be al
lowed to continue the construction
of the bridge as it was begun.
The general belief among labor
ing men is that the call for bids
was merely subterfuge to satisfy
some contractors who were MAX
ing a large noise about the excess
sive cost under day labor, claiming
money would be thrown away if
they were not allowed to bid on it.
The board of works has the pow.
er to reject any or all bids. This
will probably be done.
At meeting of the board of
works yesterday it was decided to
continue the work of making
temporary structure for the water
main until ordered otherwise by
the council.
No matter whether the work is
done by day labor or by contract,
a temporary structure must be
built for the water main.
When the bids are received the
board will refer them to the coun-

CHESTER THOMPSON
STAYS IN SEATTLE

SEATTLE, Aug. 5.-Although
Will II. Thompson, father of Ches-
ter Thompson, promised Prose
cutting Attorney Rowland both
verbally and in writing that he
would see that his son was taken
from Washington if the motion for
dismissal of the states appeal was
successful, he has not lived up to
his agreement and apparently has
no intention of doing so. Young
Thompson murdered Judge Emory
and escaped on the insanity plea.
Chester says he is going into the
photograph business in this city.
This has raised a storm of indig-
nation and it is likely, unless the
young man leaves the state imme-
diately, strong effort will be made
to reopen the case.

Mr.. Farman has won more mon
ey prizes than any other aviator.
He captured in January last the
Observation-Disclosures prize of $10,-
000 by making circular flight of
nearly three-quarters of mile in
Paris. Two months later he cap
tured another prize by fight in a
circle of one mile and half,
which he covered in two minutes
and a quarter. In the early part
of this month he achieved his
greatest feat by remaining in the
air 90 minutes and 10 second, COW
ering II miles and winning prize
of $4,000. He hopes to eclipse this
record while in America. The
greatest pause made in a flight by
the inventor has been 10 seconds,
but he predicts that the time will
come when an aeroplane can rest
as motionless in the sky as auto
mobiles do on land.

David ID. Martin, candidate for the
nomination as Register of Deeds, is re-
garded a sure winner in the present
political contest, and he should be, for
he is entitled to il, and he is a person
well liked 10y everybody who knows
him. lie is y farmer and has been SUI
pervisOr of Mussey township for seven
years, and in that capacity has not only
served his township well, but has also
served the entire county well as chair
man of the Board of Supervisors, which
position ne held for two years.
Mr. Martin is lifelong Republican
and loyal one. Two years ago he
was one of six candidates for the nom
ination for Register Of Deeds and was
defeated by spain +. Pearce by very
small plurality, Mr.. Martin having the
second largest vote in the list of six
candidates for that Office.
Mr.. Martins defeat two years ago
did not diminish his loyalty to his
party or to his successful opponent, for
after the nomination, David ID. Martin
took off his coat and worked for the
election OF Spain f. Pearce.
Mr.. Pearce is again a candidate for
this same ollice--the office that he has
conducted for the past ten years, six
years as register and four years as dep
uty register. And it is well remember
ed that MIR Pearce stated two years
ago, time and time again, he would
not seek the Office at the expiration of
this term.
From every point of view and from
the standpoint of fairness and a square
deal for everybody, which should pre-
vail in politics as well as in everything
else, Mr.. Martin should receive this
nomination. He stands high with the
people of his township, and is highly
respected by all. Mr.. Martin demon
strated this fact when he received 1877
