By the Religious Rambler,
OF the many unexpected cvnse-
quences Of the war in the Balkans one
CT the most surprising is the way the
greatest Christian bodies have laid
aside ancien. rivairies and have made
common cause against Islam. The
orthodox Greek church, and Roman
Catholic church, and the Protestant
churches. have all been menaced by
the aroused fantic:sn Of the Moslems,
and the peril their members share to-
gether has led to a new community of
feeling. Events in the Near East give
point TO the recent meetings in PhiIa-
delDhIa and London, looking toward
ultimate union Of All the diverse
branches OF Christendom.
The Greek Catholic church has the
greatest stake in the territory of the
war. The Balkan allies all own her
as their state church. The missions
OF this church are all under the pro-
tecting wing of Russia. But at, scat
tered points in European Turkey, and
thickly throughout the Holy Land, the
Roman Catholic church is Represent
ed; and her interests are safeguarded
politically by France and Austria. The
German government takes under its
protecting care the Roman Catholic
and Protestant missions Of the father
land: while the general interests of
IroteaaniSnl, as represented by wide
| ly scattered missions throughout Tur-

and the United States. There is very

SLAP AT T. ROOSEVELT

The platform adopted by the Chris
tian Patriots at their national conven-
ton at the Watch Tower yesterday,
Teiterates and amplifies the platform
OF 1911. Its principal feature is the
demand that the decalogue and the
rule of Jesus be made the standard
measure for all law. Further than
that il declares faith in the present
form of government, approves of the
initiative and referendum, disap-
proves of the judicial recall, asks
that the government purchase and
operate the nations coal mines. oil
wells and railroads, suggests that la
Dor be organized by law and that the
expenses be met by the saving that
would result from a greatly reduced
standing army. A slap is taken at
third term aspirations and the eight
year presidential term with statu-
tory preventives of reelection is sup
ported. Further it is suggested that
presidential candidates issue state

EXPLAINS PLANS
OF LABORING men
FOR LEGISLATION
President E. r. Wright of I'LL
nois Federation of Labor
Delivers Addresses.
TELLS OF COMPENSATION
is TO speak Again Tonight at Indus
trial Hall Before Tr-City
Congress.

Edwin r. Wright, of Chicago, presi-
dent OF the Illinois Federation of La
Dor, addressed meetings of the print
ors, painters and carpenters at Indus
trial hall last evening On enactments
Of the Illinois legislature just becom-
ing operative which speak for the ad-
vantage and advancement of the cause
Of labor.
The measures which Mr.. Wright,
Who is pleasing and entertaining
talker, dwelt upon at length are the
employees compensation law and the
health, safety and comfort act.
EXPLAINS FEATURES.
The speaker explained the workings
OF the two laws in detail. The former
affects all workers in dangerous occu-
pations. In case Of injury, half wages
are paid. and medical attention is Civ
en- until the injured man can return TO
work. In case of partial or total dis
ability through injury, half wages
are paid for eight years and then the
man is put on life pension. If killed
the workman's family is given its
choice of four years wages in a lump
or half wages at intervals TOR a term
OF eight years. The measure really
puts the industrial worker on a level
with the soldier.
OF the health, safety and comfort
act, less could be said It was point
ed out, however, that in the first year
OF the operation of this act, employers
had spent something like 500, 900 in
safety devices to protect their workers.
UNIFORM TEXT BOOKS.
Another subject touched upon by
Mr.. Wright was that OF uniform text
books throughout the entire state. Ac-
cording 10 him, II states now have
laws which require the use of SINH
lar books throughout their confines.
such a law in Illinois would effect the
saving Of $1,O0O.OOO or Whereabouts
each year for the parents of school
children and would obyiate the pres
ent practice of setting children back a
grade whenever they move from one
school district 20 another. This latter
practice means that the children OF
workers who move every few years TO
follow their trade, are from one TO
three years behind in their studies.
One county in this state st the pres
ent time permits 1l3 different text
books systems among it's ia school
districts. This is a great hardship to
any who move even a short distance in
this country.
NEEDED LEGISLATION.
The main reason for Mr.. Wrght's
visit here is to interest the union men
In certain needed legislation and to
direct them us to the best way 20 Sc
cure IL. The most important measure
TO be pushed at the next session is a
bill requiring that wages be paid semi
monthly and in cash. Another meas
ure which is favored is the initiative
and referendum.
The Illinois Federation OF Labor,
recognized as the strongest OF its kind
In the country, eXerts a powerful in
fluence once its various component
parts are awakened and TO get them
interested Is Mr. Wright's object
Tonight Mr. Wright will address the
Tri-City Labor Congress at Industrial
hall.

CANDIDATES SPEAK.
Daniel B. Turney, presidential can
didate of the party and Samuel c.

TurGey discussed Roosevelt and con-

ination up as a very desirable men,
Der of the Ananias club created by

National Chairman William Ru-

Fry of Rock Island and Rev. c. H.

talks.
This morning the national COM
mittee held short business session in
Davenport at which campaign plans
were mapped out.
Just before the close of yesterday
afternoons session, the convention al
