now in force in South Dakota, Mime
sofa, Iowa and several other states is
embodied in bill introduced in the
senate by Senator Clapp Of Minnesota.
The bill would prohibit corporations

Wat Tyler's Instruction
By REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY.

W. AT TYLER one Of the earliest
w OF the pioneers. in the great
struggle for democratic equal
ity and human rights in general, met
his martyrdOm five hundred and thirty
one years ago Saturday-June Is. 1891
The common people Of England had
long been suffering under great OPP
preston. The slaves of the lords OF
the land on which they lived, they
were treated not Onlv with Injustice,
but in many cases, with incivility and
contempt; in fact, they were regarded
not as human beings, but as cattle.
The pentup wrath Of the people was
simply waiting for a chance to assert
itself, and the chance came in the shape
Of an insult to the daughter OF Wat
Tyler The collectors Of the hated Doll
tax came to Watts humble cottage and
behaved toward his IA year old daugh-
ter in way that caused her TO cry
for help. Her father. at work not far
off. ran 10 his daughters assistance
and killed the ruftianly collector on
the spot
Instantly the men of the town of
hartford arose in rebellion. and in an
amazingly short time a hundred thou
sand men were marching on London
with Wat Tyler as their leader En-

prisons and freed the captives, de-

drums of religion but its ineligible
practical applications that best serve
the purpose for which religion exists
Christianity. as Christ lived it and
taught it, seems to have had its strong
est hold upon those in humble circum-
stances and to have been less appeal
ing to the educated and well to do
While. on the other hand Christian
ity, as it exhibits itself at present in
the more conspicuous Protestant
churches, addresses itself with more
effect to the classes that were least
affected by Christs presentation of it.
Which shows that there is something
in the situation that is fundamentally
wrong.
It is therefore pleasant to observe
that the thought of the church. as eX-
pressed in the two conventions just
mentioned, is giving wider expansion
to its interests and sympathies and
taking upon itself the concerns, bur
dens and deprivadOns Of men without
regard to social distinction.
Rent Between Rich and Poor.
IF this had been done sooner, and II
Christianity had continued to have
given TO it its original Interpretation,
the rent between the classes and the
masses might have been avoided, So
cfety have maintained its proper solid
ity. with no destructive competition to
sharpen the vOracity Of the rich or to
intensity the bitterness of the poor.
The serious question is whether there
vet remains enough of the pure spirit
OF Christianity to put the church back
into it's original relation with the
wants of the common people
