PRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY.
The Rev. Samuel Plocombe, pastor of
the Fourth Congregational church of
San Francisco, has created a sensation
by resigning his pulpit because his
church did not practice the Christianity
it professed.
Mr. Slocombe's idea of church work
is to carry the teachings of Christ Into
everyday life, a"d as one of the meth
ods of accomplishing this he thinks that
the church should Institute for the gen
eral public reading rooms and places of
evening entertainment. These he be
lieves are in the legitimate province
of the church and would do much to
ward combating the evil influences
which lead the young astray.
At his service on Sunday morning
last, Mr. Slocombe gave the church
eiome hits, but his ideas are sound and
are gaining more and more credence
among thoughtful people. The regula
tion pastor and the narrow-minded
member each came in for a share of
Mr. Slocombe's criticism in figures that
are so apt and well-chosen that they
deserve special emphasis. He said in
part:
"While I lave no desire to indulge !n
a tirade against the churches, I must
confess to a growing conviction that
churchianlty and Christianity are get
ting further and further apart Chur:h
es which should be so many centres of
active moral force and far-reaching
spiritual beneficence are often more like
hospitals for moral invalids or homes
for the feeble-minded. The soothing
syrup of consolation is preferred to the
tonic of truth, and the minister who can
be a pleasing nurse has his hands full.
On the other hand, the earnest call to
duty and vigorous action in the great
conflict between good and evil is for
gotten before It is well uttered. It eith
er falls on soporific ears, or it is dis
counted as professional enthusiasm,
hollow and insincere. In truth, there is
a deplorable air of unreality about our
church life which causes practical men
to fight shy of it to the injury of all
concerned."
"The essential truths of Christianity,
however, constitute a more potent fac
tor in the world's life today than ever
before. Christian common sense haJ
DON'T COUGH
Stop it with Scott's emulsion
of cod-liver oil.
A little coughing is nothing
the tickling, that makes you
cough once, is some dust; not
the least harm. You scratch
an itch, and forget it. This
cough is scratching an itch.
But the cough, that hangs on
and comes back, is the sign of
an itch ' that hangs on and
comes back. There is some
thing that makes that itch.
Inflammation: a germ per
haps; it's alive; like a seed in
moist warm ground; it will
grow if you let it, especially
in children.
Well tad yem t Bttl to by, S yen Eki.
SCOTT ft BOWNK, 409 Fori Una, NewYoA
Infected the. business world ami the so
clal and political life of our civilisation
with an Infection that Is bound to
spread. The church introduced the
world to Christ, but according to the
present trend of things the world Is In
a fair way to assrt its Independence
ft' the church and to learn of Christ
direct. In truth, the church needs to
oast off much of Its heavy toggery of
digmas and traditions, and to revise
its Ideals and objects and methods,
and also to quicken Its pace. If It Is to
keep Us place In the lead of the world's
moral progrfss."
Many churches In the eastern states
have adopted the practical view of
Christianity, as taught by Mr. SUv
combe, and their number is rapidly In
creasing. The Christianity of the com
ing century bids fair to be of a broad
er and more practical type than any
torm of It which has been preached
sine the death of Its founder.
CONCILIATION AM AKBl'f IWl'lOM,
New York Commercial.
The public is not so much concerned
In the rights Involved In the present
issues between capital and labor in the
Pennsylvania coal fields as In the fact
that these lssuos are permitted to be
come disturbing elements In the natural
course of trade. If they were confined
to Individual establishments the matter
might be one of indifferent concern; but
when a considerable portion of a great
industry Is unsettljd thereby the dis
turbance assumes phases concerning
whose development and outcome the
people are deeply solicitous.
It Is clearly evident that public opin
ion has been crystallising as to the ne
cessity of instituting some method of
healing or preventing labor dissensions.
or of recognlilng some principle that
can meet popular support, as presenting
elements of Justice under present Indus
trial conditions. This Is seen In na
tional and state laws, and In the re
commendations of national and state
executives. These are the discernible
signs of public opinion as It Is govern
ed by the visible trend of events. Con
ciliation is recognized, practically ev
erywhere, as the Ideal principle that
should govern the settlement of differ
ences between the employer and his
employes. The best mode for effecting
this remains still undetermined, and
must, to a great extent, be left to cir
cumstances peculiar to each trade or to
those governing the operations of each
establishment Should such efforts at
conciliation fail, then rome satisfactory
provision for arbitration or the submis
sion of the matter in controversy to a
referee may be Taken advantage of, and
the productive forces of capital and lab
or mav thus go on uninterrupted In
their efficacy.
Whatever plan is submitted for the
settlement of labor troubles. It must re
cognise the peculiar temperaments of
human nature that have to be dealt
with. Hence the great difficulty that is
Inevitably encountered In the precise
application of any method that Is cir
cumscribed in Its operations, or at all
compulsory In Its character. The near
er the employer and his employes can
get together unier arrangements of
their own, without the Intervention of
a third party, the oetter; and the un
derstanding that may be reached would
thus be more lasting and satisfactory.
All plans of conciliation or arbitra
tion thus far adopted. It should be re
membered, are still tentative, however
well some of them may have fulfilled
their mission. The one. that has met
with growing favor Is embodied In the
agreement that was made last March
between the National Metal Trades As
sociation and the International Associa
tion of Machinists, accepting the prin
ciples of arbitration In the settlement of
labor contentions instead of lockouts
and strikes. It provides that in all dis
putes arising between members of these
respective organizations fthat Is, an
employer and his employes) every rea
sonable effort shall be made by both
parties to effect a satisfactory adjust
ment; failing In this, either party shall
have the right to ask its reference to
a committee of arbitration. This shall
consist of the presidents of the two or
ganizations, or their representatives,
and two other representatives from
each organization appointed by their
respective presidents. The findings of
this committee of arbitration by a ma
ority vote shall be considered final as
regards the particular case at Issue.
Pending adjudication, there shall be no
cessation of work at the Instance of
either party to the dispute. It will be
noted that all provision for a referee
Is eliminated, and that, If a deadlock
should result, then the question must re
main unsettled. On the other hand,
should a majority decision be reached.
It is sure to be satisfactory and stand
so long as conditions remain the same.
The National Founders' Association
Is trying to have a similar understand
ingwith certain other stipulations to
be agreed, upon by the foregoing two
organisations arranged between It and
the Iron Molders' Union of North
America. Similar arrangements exist
In the engineering trad and In the cot
ton trade of England.
