No Aid to Common People.

No Aid to Common People.
1.-THE church has absolutely no de-
sire to weld any Influence to help
the common people to get fair play. 1t
is not back of any organization of
men to get their rights. The moneyed
classes of today control the attitude
of the church toward any problem.
The church has no desire to have it's
ministers deal with any subject that
is the least bit questionable. For in
stance, minister must not preach
about Socialism; he must not tackle
the liquor question; he must not speak
of the brothels.
He must withdraw himself from
the active affairs which should claim.
the attention of a clergyman as we'll
as any other man. Above all if he
has ideas on social problems he must
not voice them. The church is more
interested in righting mems little
faults and inconsistencies than it is
in dealing with the great faults that
are undermining society.
"The church will find fault with
vaudeville performance or a baseball
game on Sunday, but it will say moth
ing against a system which year af-
ter year degrades and starves millions
Why, today in this country there are
four millions of persons starving and
the church, while it has a sympathetic
spirit and deals out charity, is doing
absolutely nothing to remove the
eauses that produce that unfortunate
condition. y-r--,
I'm the days gone by the church
has welded a tremendous influence,
but it has undeniably lost it's hold on
the people because for many years it
has had no definite policy on any Wit
al problem. 1t has been interested in
in it's theology, discussing its creeds
and attempting to build up it's demon
nations, rather than to minister to
the real needs of man.
Church VS.. Divine Teaching.
81 believe the teachings of Jesus are
absolutely right. If proposition is
put before the church today, it will
ask first of all is it polite, instead of
is it right Jesus's philosophy is based
upon what is right, whether polite or
not
1.-THE great principle of Jesuss phil
osophy was that he was friend of
the common people. The church is
not a friend of the common people in
that it does not stand back of their
efforts to better their conditions. The
teachings of Jesus will live. if not in
the church, then out of the church.
Man is a religious being and will
have religious institutions that go to
the very root of things. If he cannot
express his ideas and his needs in
the church as it is today, he will ex-
press them outside of the church in
labor, socialistc and other move
ments."

Convicts Will
Not Get Work
in Tailor Shop
Governor shallenbergez Declines to
Sign Contract Permitting Them
to Be Thus Employed.
tFrOm a staff Correspondent

CFrom a starr correspondent
LINCOLN, Neb., April ~2s.-(speclal.)-
The state will not contract with the ST.
Louis garment making firm which made
a bid for the use of the convicts. The
firm desired to install a tailor shop in the
state pe~nitentiary and use the convicts
for the manufacture Of clothing for la
borers. The Board of Public Lands and
Buildings thought favorably of the tailor
shop idea, believing the state could get
much more money for the use Of the con-
victs than 1t could by letting them out to
the broom factory. The clothing firm had
already signed the contract agreeing to
pay from go to IS cents a day for the
prisoners and the matter was put up to
Governor Shallenberger. who under the
law has the final say in the matter.
When the news of the proposed contract
was published the various labor unions
of the state, together with the manufac-
turers of laborers' clothing, got busy on
the governor to get him to refuse to per-
nit the manufacture Of such articles In
the penitentiary. The governor investi-
gated and then refused to sign the con-
tract. From his office the following state
ment was given out this sfternoon;
Governor shallenberger states tina he
does not favor the contract upon investiga-
ton for the reason he feels In the first
place 1t Ia unfair to free labor to be put In
competition with prison labor, and the fact
that the parties who desire the contract In
question make q proviso that IL the gar
ments made at the p~enitentiary are to be
stamped prison made the contract is to
be ended Is evidence of the fact they realize
the intense prejudice among people gener-
ally against prison made goods.
The governor believes that the present
makers of brooms at the penitentiary Will
take all of the idle labor at as good a wage
as the garmentmakers will offer, and that
since the contract with the broommakers
has been already Fepewedf for several years
no objection can be made to this increased
strongly in favor of employing a portion OF
the labor in the fields raising sugar beets,
as a healthy and remunerative employment
and something that Will not in any way
affect honest labor. A further objection lie
that concentrating is a line of work that
in all free factories is generally performed
by women, and male cOnvicts II taught 70
perform this labor In the prison, on dis
charge would not AVE any trade which
| He feels that whatever trade ts taught q
male convict It should be such work as
would find him employment after serving
his term.
The matter of finding employment for the
c~onvicts that will keen them healthy and
give them the necessary work that dis
cipline demands and at the same time make
the prison as self sustaining as possible Is
a difficult problem. but Governor Shalien-

signed by 24s property owners asking to
have the ordinance revoked and the
street opened because a new building had
not been erected on the site within the
two years. After an animated discus
sion the petition was rejected and the
city attorney was instructed to prepare
an ordinance extending the time for the
construction OF the building by the nor
NAL school for two years and for the ex-
ecution of a deed to the street to be de-
livered when the building IL erected, pro-
vided II is done within two years.
NORTH PLATTE-Fire did about N,0oO
damage In the Howe g. Maloney furniture
store at 8 o'clock last evening. Tit entire
contents of the store room In the rear end
of the building were destroyed. A trash
burner is responsible for the blaze. The
high wind that arose Just at that time
overturned IL and spread the fire 70 the
building and to a pile OF lumber at the
same time. The lumber, also was burned.
That did not amount to more than &S or
$40. A blaze started at the same time and
in exactly the same manner in the alley
in the rear of the Tramp grocery II was
extinguished by the clerking force of the
store before II did any damage.
