LANGUAGE BARRIERS
BREAKING DOWN

The diversity Of languages is n of
the most remarkable things in the
world-an effectual barrier to prevent
mankind from combining for the &C.
complishment of their own purposes,
selfish or sinful. 1t has delayed the
great Day of Wrath. Now the Ian
guage barriers are breaking down, and
we find the tendency Of humanity to
re-unite. Unions and Trusts are being
built by the Rich and Poor-each for
Self-protection. Had these barriers
been removed two thousand years ago,
similar results would have come too
soon, according to the Divine purpose
which is shaping Earth's affairs in
preparation for Messiah's Kingdom,
which will bless the entire human fam
lily. 1.-THE WONDERFUL BIBLE

LABOR VOTE NOT DELIVERABLE.
This Is the Outstanding Fact Which
Political Philosophers Deduce From
the Defeat in Maine of Repre-
sentative McGiIlIcuddy.

From among the numerous lessons
or conclusions which the political phi
losophers can draw from the Maine
election one lesson or conclusion
stands out more sharply defined than
any other. 1t jumps at you.
The labor vote, for the sake OF
which the Poltroon Congress tarred
and feathered itself with its own
hands only a dozen days ago. is not
deliverable by the traders who pre-
tended to sell 1t.
This salient fact Of the election is
illustrated conspicuously In the Sec
ond Congress district. There are few
places within the confines Of our
republic where labor Is relatively
stronger than In the city Of Lewiston,
the home city of Representative Nc
Gillicuddy, and he has made a spe-
cialty Of 1t in his own political prac-
tice. In the Second Maine, If any
where, would there be indications of
any return, in the shape of votes, for
the surrender of Congress to the four
Brotherhoods. After a campaign
which might almost be called desper-
ate in its effort to save McGillicuddy
and one Democratic seat in the House
from the Republican onset, Mr.. Nc
Gillicuddy was defeated by an ad-
verse plurality of nearly 400, whereas
he had been elected to the Sixty
second Congress by a plurality Of 1889
and to the Sixty-third by 1881.

NOT AN ~EIGHT-HoUR LAW.
Recent HoId-Up Legislation Does
Not Shorten Workday q
Minute.

AS a matter of fact, 1t is not
an e%ight-hour law at all. It does
not curtail the trainmen's work
day by a single minute. If an
engineer has been receiving So
for working ten hours a day, this
law will raise his pay to 1925;
but 1t will not shorten his work
day even the tenth part of a sec
ond. This is no more like the
true eight-hour principle than
chalk is like cheese.
The reason why people call
this an eight-hour law Is be-
cause it says that in the case
of railroad trainmen they shall
get their days pay for the first
eight hours work, and all the
rest Is to be considered over
time.
Do not tell me that this strike
could not have been called off or
postponed If President Wilson
had shown that he meant bust
ness. / do not for one minute
believe that those four brother
hood leaders started the blaze
going without knowing how to
put it out. One of them ad-
mitted that he could put it out
so far as his own brotherhood
was concerned, but that his fol-
lowers would think that he had
gone back on them If he were
to do so.-Statement of Con-
gresham A. P. Gardner.
