Now to ministers.

Now to ministers.
The average congregation is made
up of about 80 per cent of free citizens
and much less than 10 per cent of
members of the Labor Trust.
The free citizen wants to hear words
defending the rights and independence
of the common man, free from the ar
bitrary dictates of any self seeking
organization either of Capital or La
Dor.
The merchant, lawyer, school teach
er. doctor, clerk, farmer and workman
rebels against any forcible stopping OF
trains, boats, street cars, or factories,
for the prosperity of the community
is entirely dependent on the steady
continuance of these things.
Men don't like strikes, boycotts, in

became SO favorably impressed
with the trustworthiness and practical

Let me ask you to read again a Dor

"The people of the world have given
me money enough to spend in these
talks through the papers in trying to
make better and safer conditions for
the common people, whether the Pos
tum business runs or not.
scores OF letters have come to me
from work-people and others, some
from union men, recounting their suf-
fering from union domination and
urging that their cases be laid before
the public
It will not answer for us to only sym
pathize with the poor, the Oppressed.
those who haven't power enough to
drive off tyrants and resent oppression.
We must help them tie the hands of the
oppressors. Americans must act.
Some of my forebears in New Eng
land left comfortable homes, took with
them the old flint locks, slept on the
ground in rain and frost; hungry,
footsore, and half clothed they grimly
pushed on where the Eternal God of
Human Liberty urged them. They
wove for me and for you a mantle of
freedom, woven in a loom where the
shuttles were cannon balls and bullets
and where swords were used to pick
! out the tangles in the yarn.
These old, sturdy granddads of ours
stood by that loom until the mantle
was finished, then. stained with their
life blood it was handed down to us.

few dollars, and are you towards
enough to hide yours because some
foreign labor union anarchist orders
you to strip 1t OFF,

$1,000 RAILROAD men GO OUT
STRIKE ON GRAND TRUNK SYS-
TEN TIES UP FREIGHT.
Passenger Service Is conqested-Miik
Famine Threatens Montreal
Strikers Are Orderly.

Montreal-It was estimated Tues
day that 10000 men were out of en-
ployment as result of the strike of
employees of the Grand Trunk railroad
system which went into effect Monday
night
The strike order was obeyed by
5000 conductors and trainmen and the
company Tuesday locked out 10000
men in the shops in the hope that they
would accept the positions deserted
by the conductors and trainmen. The
coup has not been successful.
Freight and passenger traffic on the
entire Grand Trunk system is longest
ed. Freight is piling up in immense
quantities at the various transfer
points, with no likelihood of being
moved for long time
few trains were run by minor Of
tlcials of the road, with office clerks to
take the tickets, but this method has
proven failure. Passengers will not
purchase tickets because of the in
ability of the company to guarantee a
through trip to any point.
A milk famine is threatened In Mon
treal by reason of the company's fail
ure to deliver any part of the usual
supply of that commodity from out
lying points. Also there is a marked
scarcity CT other necessities usua
transported by the railroad.
There was nothing approaching dis
order among the strikers at any point
along the system, excepting in one in
stance, in which a brakeman on a
Grand Trunk train at Flint, Mich, was
attacked by the strikers and saved by
his mother, who shamed the strikers
into retreat
The commissioner of labor of Cana
da offered to arbitrate the grievances
OF the strikers, declaring that the Ca
madam government would pay all ex-
penses incurred by him, but the Off
Gals of the union declined the offer,
saying that the strike had gone too
tar for arbitration.

ROYAL ARCANUM HARD HIT
not Raise Its Assessment Rates
Without Members Consent.

New York.-Supreme Court Justice
William ]. Kelly of Brooklyn handed
down a decision in which he holds
that the supreme council of the Royal
Arcanum cannot raise its assessment
rates without permission from the
members of the organization.
1t is believed that the decision deals
hard blow to the order. The case
was brought to the attention of thu
court by Samuel Green of Brooklyn,
who is a member of the Dewitt Clin-
ton council r. A., and who at one time
held one of the highest positions in
the council.
In deciding in favor of the plaintiff
Justice Kelly declares that the society
cannot assume an unlimited reserved
power to increase the amount of as
sessment to an extent which might be
prohibitive and could only result in
depriving the individual of his mem.
bership.
