One often sees some bonehead mas

game in Eureka there were three men
on the bases and the batter hunted
the ball along the first base line. The

HERALD DOES NOT INDoRS
THEM.


There has come criticism from some
sources of the Pastor RUSSELL ser
mons now being published in the Her
aid. These sermons were taken on
BY the Herald management upon the
ahieheat recouame datins of ys- zzui !
cate c0ncef d. as being purely unde-
nominational and highly educative. As
soon as their real nature was ascer-
tanned an effort was made to cancel

eel. The Herald does not indorse
them and does not commend them,
and as soon as the years period for
which they are contracted for is up

company was named as one of the
Pennsylvania concerns. 1t was de-
clared that an Ohio manufacturing
company was reported to have killed
1 200 men in nine years" These hui
name individuals who are fairly
shrieking against the proposed physi-
cal culture contest in California might
widen the scope of their influence by
protesting against the wholesale
slaughter of human beings in mills
and mines. Spotlighting is all right
in its place, perhaps, but why not say
word or strike blow in defense of
the toiling brotherhood-the American
ead-winners.-Dallas Times Herald.
The Herald is willing to believe that
corporations are run for the profit
there is in the business and will con-
cede that the game is not always
played as fair as it should be. But
it will not believe that such a condi-
ton as described above prevails until
the absolute proof is forthcoming. We
know that humanity is mean in spots,
and that men have been found first
and last to do the dirty and criminal
deeds that have shocked the world,
but that any corporation, even as soul
less as we are told they are, could
conceive of and carry out any such
plan of disposing of the injured work
ers, is past all belief.
