THE CHANGING ATTITUDE OF THE
CHURCHES.

It has been said that the frequent
reference to the song of the lark
made SO often by American poets is
not because. they ever saw or ever
heard a lark, but because the Ameri
can poets have followed the English
poets as line of literary descent. In
like manner we Socialists are apt to
meet our native conditions not as
those conditions really are, but after
the manner of utterance that has been
handed down the line of Socialist de-
scent.
The religious conditions in America
are different. The most of the churches
are more or less democratic in their
government They are all voluntary
groups. In point Of numbers the
working class predominates. Every
religious organization Of the nation
has a well-defned group of Socialist
sympathizers.
These groups work everywhere as
leaven in the lump. Already the var
ious religious bodies are changing
their attitude towards the Socialist
party. The voices of the new social
prophets are heard In every great
religious gathering. OF course, it is

Church and state should remain

But the justice which we proclaim I'D

It may be that the conversion of the

It must be our task to remain in
our own sphere and press our political
propaganda. The churches will be
torn by internal struggle over this
very question, but as a question Of
moral truth and spiritual culture they
must battle it out in their own way
and on their own platform. Some of
US may be called upon to function in
two or more fields, but these fields as
such must be kept separate and dis

not crowded with self-seeking candi-

adopted or not, Socialists will contest
for all elective positions. And a hot

This strike would prove a mighty
serious matter. If it should tie up
these fifty-four railroad systems,
j.. even IL only Tor one month cities
like Pittsburg and Indianapolis would
be in danger Of starving. And cities
like New York, Chicago. Philadel-
phia, Cleveland and Milwaukee that
could get food by boat would also be
seriously menaced-not to mention
the tremendous effect the strike
would have upon business of all kinds
everywhere.
Public Interest Alone
Moreover, it is pretty generally
understood now that railroads should
be operated for the public interest
alone. because in their economic and
legal relation railroads are public
highways.
