SOME ENGINEERS
DESERT UNION

Despite the fact that 80 members OF
Marine City branch. No. SO. of the Ma
rine Engineers Benevolent associa-
ton. including the president. have
signed the contracts offered by the
Lake Carriers association. that branch
has voted to stand firm. The members
who have signed will be given week

the union II they still hold onto the
jobs they have taken. AS first step.
John Lowe was elected president OF
the branch in place OF William Flitz.
National vice-President w. p. Tindail
told the engineers that but 1853 men
have signed up In the whole lake re-
gion, most of these going TO the Pick
ands Mather and the Tomlinson
boats These lines have invariably
treated the engineers we'll.
The assertion that the Pittsburg
Steamship Co. the steel trust line.
has signed up 1873 engineers for Its
boats Is denied by the men.
In hoping for victory in The comm =
battle, the engineers depend on the
increased demand for steel this year.
due TO the fight between the steel
trust and the independent plants. and
also to increased railroad construc-
ton. Alonzo Arnold. agent for Pick
ands & Mather, has been particularly
successful In signing up engineers.

Until All the Evidence Is In no Christian
Should Presume upon an Answer.
(By A. A. Snow

10y "A. A. OuOW.)
There never since the dawn of Christian
ity, were SO many doubling concerning the
future life as there are now; not ignorant or
bad people, but the best there are or as
good as there are. They are readers, think
ers, persons acquainted with philosophy and
science and who study history, look into
ecclesiastical traditions. This is the atti-
tude of thousands and the number is grow
ing."-Rev. Minot J. Savage.
Persons have existed on the earth since
history began, perhaps before, believing in
another life for man. Others knew nothing
of such belief The earliest bible writer's
had no such belief. Many of them express
ly denied it. Later ON the belief was adopt
ed as feature of Christianity. If We ask
the masses why they believe in another
ation the Bible teaches it," And most of
them admit that without that revelation
there is no foundation for tina: belief. But
what is a revelation worth that contradicts
itself? Will you say that you preach to
savages today that their eternal destiny de-
ponds on their belief in another life. while
such was not necessary for savages 1000
years ago?
The Judge says to the jury Until the
evidence is all in you presumably cannot
decide this question justly" So the educa-
ted are more liable to decide the question
correctly as to future life than the ignor-
ant And the educated are rapidly coming

COMMENT.

Courtesy to Prof. Wakeman impels us to
publish the foregoing letter, but the Blade
repeats here what it has said to him in a
private letter, that we would not willingly
withdraw anything we have SAID about him.
Our impressions Of Prof Wakeman were
formed more than a generation ago, when.
being young and inexperienced, We looked
to him for counsel and advice and the years
have strengthened the Impressions then
made, We do not hesitate to say that few
minds in America can compare, favorably,
with his, and as an exponent of the Posi-
twist philosophy, he is without a superior.
True genius is ever modest as we have pre-
viOusly written, and we attribute Mr.. Wake

If A Man Die, Shall He Live Again?

10 doubt such life. They are coming 10 see
that life is an attribute OF organized matter
and when 1t becomes disorganized life dis.
appears.
Now | will give an argument little COM
plIcated, but | have purpose in it.
leave others to give the more simple. L
wish not only to show there can be no i'm
mortality for man without there is also for
every living creature either plant, animal
or mcrobe, but also at the same time, to
show what vast fields of investigation there
is before one has this evidence all in; and
this will explain why the masses of the g-
norant continue to believe in the supersti-
ton of immortality.
The evidence l refer to is founded on the
science of Evolution, which shows that man
has grown up from monads the lowest of
living creatures, and it canno. be that the
immortal could evolute from the mortal
since they are fundamentally opposite. 1t
cannot be that we had a foreparent having
no immortal soul while its own offspring had
an immortal soul. But why do you ask, is
this argument Complicated? Answer: Be-
cause 1t depends upon the truth OF eVOlu
ton. which in turn depends upon the truth
of geology. These | could not begin to
prove true in this essay, but will assure
the readers that they have been proved
and accepted by all the naturalists of the
globe, who have had the evidence before
them.
