Twolmndred and fifty thousand laborers
In Hydu park, London, and tlio streets of
American and European cities1 HUod with
processions of workmen carrying banners,
Srlligs tho subject of Iabor and Capital to
the front. That all this was done, in peaco,
and that as a result, in many places, arbi
tration hits taken placo, is n hopeful sign.
Tho greatest war tho world has over soon
Is between capital nnd labor. Tho i.trlfo is
not llko that which in history is called tho
Thirty Years' War, for it is a war of cen
turies, it is a war of tho llvo continents, it
Is a wur hemispheric. Tho middlo classes
In this country, upon whom tho nation has
depended for holding tho balance of power
nnd for acting as mediators lietwecn tho
two extremes, uro diminishing; and if
things go on at tho name ratio us they have.
for tho last twenty years beon going on, it
will not bo very long lteforo thcro will bo no
middlo class in this country, but all will bo
very rich or very poor, princes or paupers,
aud tho country will bo given up to palaces
and hovels.
UANOEIt IN I'llKSEN'T METHODS.
Tho antagonistic forces have, again and
again closed in upon each other. You may
pooh pooh it; you may Bay that this trou
ble, llko an angry child, will cry itself to
sleep; you may belittle it by culling it Fou
rierism, or Socialism, or St. Slmonlsm, or
Nihilism, or Communism, but that will not
hinder tho fact that it is tho mightiest, tho
darkest, tho most terrlllc threat of this cen
tury. Most of tho attempts at pacification
have been dead failures, and monopoly is
moro arrogant nnd tlio trades unions mora
bitter. "Give us moro wages," cry tho em
ployes. "You shall lmvo less," nay tho capi
talists. "Compel us to do fewer hours of
toll in a day." "You shall toll moro
hours," say tho others. "Then, under cer
tain conditions, wo will not work nt all,"
say these. "Then you shall starve," say
those, and tho workmen gradually using
up that which thoy accumulated in better
times, unless thero bo soma radical change,
wo shall have soon in this country thrco
million hungry men and women. Now,
three million hungry people cannot bo kept
quiet. All tho enactment! of legislatures
and all tho constabularies of the cities, and
nil tho army and navy of tho United States
cannot keep thrco million hungry people
quiet. What thenf Will this war between
capital and labor bo settled by human wis
dom? Never. Tho brow of tho ono bo
comes moro rigid, tho flstof tho other more
clinched.
But thct which human wisdom cannot
achlovo will bo accomplished by Christian
ity if it bo given full sway. You havo
heard of medicines so powerful that ono
drop would stop n disease and restore a
patient, and I havo to tell you that ono
drop of my text properly administered will
jtop nil theso woes of society and give con
valescence aud complete health to all
classes. "Whntsoover yo would that men
lhould do to you, do yo uvon so to them."
I shall first show you this morning how
this controversy between monopoly and
hnrd work cannot bo stopped, and then I
will show you how this controversy will bo
settled.
Futile remedies. In tho first placo there
will coino no pacification to this trouble
through an outcry against rich men mere
ly because they aro rich. Thcro Is no labor
ing man on earth that would not bo rich if
ho could bo; Sometimes through a fortu
nato invention, or through ,somo nccident
of prosperity, a man who had nothing
comes to lnrgo estate, and wo seo him nrro
gant and supercilious, and taking peoplo
by tho throat just as other peoplo took him
by tho throat.
There is something very mean about hu
man unturo when It comes to tho top. But
It is no moro a sin to bo rich than it is u sin
to bo poor. There aro thoso who lmvo
gathered a great estate through fraud, nnd
then thcro aro millionaires who lmvo
gathered their fortune through foresight
in regard to changes in tho markets, and
through brilliant business faculty, nnd
every dollar of their estato is us honest as
tho dollar which tho plumber gets for
mending a pipe, or the mason gets for
building n wall. Thcro aro thoso who
keep in poverty because of their own fault.
They might have been well off, but they
smoked or chewed up their earnings, or
they lived beyond their means, whllo others
on tho same wages aud on tho same salar
ies went on to competency. I knuw n man
who is all tho time complaining of his
poverty and crying out ngainst rich men.
while ho himself keeps two dogs, and
chews and smokes, and is filled to tho chin
with whisky nnd beerl
FOVEHTY AND WCIIES BOTH HONOIUIILK.
Mlcawbcr said to David Copperfleld:
"Copporfleld, my boy, ono pound incomo,
twenty shillings ami sixpence expenses;
result, misery. But Copperfleld, my boy,
ono pound income, expenses nineteen shil
lings and sixpence; result, happiness." And
there are vast multitudes of peoplo who
aro kept poor becauso they aro tho victims
of their own improvidence. It is no sin to
bo rich, and it is no sin to bo poor. I pro
test against this outcry which I hear
against those who, through economy and
self denial nnd assiduity, have como to
largo fortuuo. This bombardment of com
mercial success will never stop this contro
versy between capital and labor.
Neither will tho contest bo settled by
cynical and unsympathetic treatment of
tho laboring classes. There aro those who
speak of them as though they were only
cattle or draught horses. Their nerves aro
nothing, their domestic comfort is nothing.
Thoy lmvo no more sympathy for them than
a hound has for a hare, or a hawk for u
hen, or n tiger for a calf. When Jean Vnl
jcun, tho greatest hero of Victor Hugo's
writings, after u life of suffering and bravo
endurance, goes into incarceration and
douth, they chip tho lxok shut aud say,
"Good for hlml" They stamp their feet
with indignation and say just tho opposite
of "Snvo tho working classes." They havo
all their sympathies with Shylock, and not
with Antonio und Portia. They are pluto
crats, uud their feelings aro Infomnl. Thy
aro filled with Irritation uud Irascibility on
this subject. To stop this awful imbroglio
between capital aud labor they will lift not
so much as tho tip end of tho little linger.
Neither will thcro bo any pacification of
this angry controversy through violence
God never blessed murder. Blow up to
morrow tho country seats on tho banks of
tho Hudson, nnd all tho flno houses on
Madison square aud Brooklyn heights nnd
Brooklyn hill nnd Hlttcnhouso squnro and
Beacon street, and all tho bricks and tim
ber and Mono will just fall back on tho
bnro head of American labor. Tho worst
enemies of tho working classes in tho
United States and Ireland uru their de
mented coadjutors. A fow years ago as
snssluntion thonssasslnntionof lord Fred
crick Cavendish and Mr. Burko In Phumlx
park, Dublin, Ireland, in tho attempt to
avenge tho wrongs of Irclnnd only turned
away from that afflicted people millions of
sympathizers. Tho attempt to blow up
tlio house of commons, In 1 union, had only
this effect: to throw out of employment
tens of thousands of Innocent Irish jcoplo
In England.
In this country tho torch put lo the fac
tories that have discharged hands fur good
or bad reason; obstructions on tlio rail
track In front of midnight expre.is trains
becauso tho offenders do not llko tho presi
dent of tho company; striken on shipboard
tho hour they were going to sail, or In
printing o dices tho hour the paper was to
go to press, or in mines tho day tho coal
was to bo delivered, or on house scaffold
ings so the builder falls In keeping his con
tractall these aro only u liurd Wow on
tho head of American laltor, aud cripple
Its arms, and lamu Its feet, and pierce Its
heart. As u result of one of our great
American strikes you llud that tho opera
tives lost four hundred thousand dollars'
worth of wages, and havo had poorer wuges
ever since. Traps sprung suddenly upon
employers, nnd violence, never took ono
knot out of tho knucklo of toll, or put ono
farthing of wages Into a callous palm.
Barbarism will never euro tho wrongs of
civilization. Murk that!
ETKHKAI. JUSTICE COMMANDS.
Frederick the Grcut admired some hind
near his palace ut Potsdam and ho resolved
to get it. It was owned by a miller. Ho
offered tho miller three times tho vuluo of
tho property. Tho miller would not take
it, liccauso It was the old homestead, and
ho felt about it us Nalmth felt about his
vineyard when Ahnb wuntcd it. Frederick
the Great was a rough uud terrible man,
and ho ordered the mlllerinto his presence;
and the king, with a stick in his hand a
stick with which ho sometimes struck his
ofllcors of state said to this miller: "Now,
I have offered you three times tho value of
that property, and If you won't sell It I'll
take It anyhow." Tho miller said: "Your
majesty, you won't," "Yes," said the king,
"I will take it." "Then," said tho miller,
"If your majesty does take It I will suo you
In tho chancery court." At that threat
Frederick the Great yielded ills infamous
demand. Aud tho most imperious outrago
against the working classes will yet cower
before the law. Violence and contrary to
the law will never accomplish anything,
but righteousness and according to lnw
will accomplish it.
Well, If this controversy between capital
and labor cannot be settled by human wis
dom, It Is time for us to look somewhere
else for relief, nnd it points from my text
roseate nnd Jubilant, nnd puts one hand on
tho broadcloth shoulder of capital, nnt
puts the other hand on the homespun cov
ered shoulder of toll, and says, with a voice
that will grandly and gloriously settle this
and settle everything, "Whatsoever ye
would that men should do to you, do ye
even so to them." That is, tho lady of the
household will say: "I must treat tho maid
in tho kitchen just as I would llko to bo
treated if I were downstairs, und it were
my work to wash, nnd cook, and sweep,
nnd It were tho duty of the maid in tho
kitchen to presldo in this parlor." The
maid In tho kitchen must say: "If my em
ployer seems to bo moro prosperous than 1,
that is no fault of hers; I shall not treat
her us an enemy. I will havo tho same in
dustry und fidelity downstairs as I would
expect from my subordinates if I happened
to bo the wifo of a silk importer."
The owner of an iron mill, having taken
a dose of my text before leaving home in
tho morning, will go into his foundry, and,
passing into what Is called the puddling
room, ho will seo m man thcro stripped to
tho waist, and besweated and exhausted
with the labor und the toll, nnd ho will say
to him: "Why, it seems to bo very hot in
here. You look very much exhausted. I
hear your child Is sick with scarlet fever.
If wunt your wuges u little curlier this week,
so as to pay tho nurso und get tho medi
cines, just como Into my otllce nny time."
After awhile, crush goes tho money
market, aud there Is no moro demand for
tho articles manufactured in that iron mill,
and the owner does not know what to do.
Ho says, "Shall I stop tho mill, or shall I
run it on half time, or shall I cut down the
men's wagesf" Ho walks tho floor of his
counting room all day, hardly knowing
what to do. Toward evening ho culls all
the laborers together. They stand all
around, some with arms akimbo, somo
folded arms, wondering what tho boss Is
going to do now. The manufacturer says:
".Men, business is bad; I don't mako twenty
dollars where I used to make ono hundred.
Somehow, thcro Is no demand now for
what we manufacture, or but very little
demand. You hco, I am nt vast expense,
and I havo called you together this after
noon to seo what you would advise. I
don't wunt to shut up tho mill, becauso
that would force you out of work, nnd you
havo always been very faithful, and I llko
you, nnd you seem to llko mo, and the
bairns must bo looked after, aud your wifo
will nfter awhllo wunt a new dress. I
don't know what to do."
THE OIUTEFUL WORKMAN.
There is a dead halt for a minute or two,
and then ono of tho workmen steps out
from tho ranks of his fellows and says:
"Boss, you havo been very good to us, and
when you prospered wo prospered, nnd
now you aro in a tight place, uud I um
sorry, and wo havo got to sympathlzo with
von. I don't know how tho others feel,
but I propose that wo tako off twenty per
cent, from our wages, and thut when tho
times get good you will remember us uud
rnlso them ngaln." Tho workman looks
around to his comrades, aud says: "Boys,
what do you say to thlsf All In favor of
my proposition will say ny." "Ayl uyl nyl"
shout two hundred voices.
But tho mill owner, getting in somo now
machinery, exposes himself very much,
und takes cold aud it bettlcs into pneu
monia uud he dies. In tho procession to
tho tomb are all tho workmen, tears roll
ing down their cheeks aud off upon the
ground; but an hour before tho procession
gets to tho cemetery tho wives and the
children of thoso workmen aro ut tho grave
waiting for tho arrival of tho funeral
pageant. Tho minister of religion may
have delivered an eloquent eulogium before
they started from the house, but the most
Impressive things uro said that day by the
working classes standing around the tomb.
That night in nil tho cabins of tho work
Ing peoplo where they have family prayers,
the widowhood and the orphanage, in tho
mansion aro remembered. No glaring
populations look ovor tho Iron fence of the
cemetery, but, hovering over the scene, the
benediction of God and man is coming for
tho fulflllmeutof tho Christllko injunction,
"Whatsoever yo would that men should do
to you, do yo even so to thorn."
"Oh," says somo man hero, "that is all
Utopian, that is apocryphal, that is Impos
sible." No, I cut out of a paper thlst "Ono
of tho plcasantest incidents recorded in ft
long time Is reported from Bhcftlold, Kng
laud. Tho wages of tho meu In tho Iron
works at Bhcfllold aro rogulntel by n board
of arbitration, by whoso decision both mna
tors and men nra liouud. For somo tlmo
past tin iron nnd steel trado has lccn ex
tremely unprofitable, and tho employer can
not, without much loss, pay tho wages fixed
by tho board, which neither employers nor
employed havo tho mwor to change. To
avoid this difficulty, tho workmen in ono
of the largest steel works In Shefllold lilt
upon ft device as rare as It was generous.
Thoy offered to work for thrlr employer
ono week without nny pay whatever. How
much better that plan is than a strlko
would be."
UOMU'.N HULK COItl'OUATlONS.
But you go with mo and I will show you
not 60 far off as Sheffield, England fac
tories, banking houses, store houses, nnd
costly enterprises where this Chrlstllko
injunction of my text is fully kept, and
you could no moro got tho employer to
practice nn iujustlco upon his men, or tho
men to conspire against tho employer, than
you could get you right hand and your left
hand, your right eye and your left eye,
your right car and your left cur, into physi
ological antagonism. Now, where Is this
to begin f In our homes, In our stores, on
our farms not waiting for other peoplo to
do their duty. Is thcro a divergence now
between the parlor and tho kitchen? Then
there Is something wrong, either In tho
parlor or the kitchen, perhaps in both.
Aro the clerks In your store Irate against
tho llrmf Then there is something wrong,
either lchlng tho counter, or in tho private
office, or perhaps in both.
Tho great want of tho world today Is tho
fulfillment of this Chrlstllko Injunction,
that which ho promulgated in hh sermon
Ollvetlc. All the political economists un
der tho nrchivolt of tho heavens in conven
tion for a thousand years cannot settlo this
controversy between monopoly and hnrd
work, between capital and labor. During
tho Revolutionary war tlioro was a heavy
piece of timber to lie lifted, perhaps for
somo fortress, nud u corporal was oversee
ing tho work, und ho was giving commands
to somo soldiers us they lifted: "Heuvo
away, there! yo heavol" Well, tho timber
was too heavy; thoy could not get It up.
There was 11 gentleman riding by on n
horse, and he stopped and said to this cor
poral, "Why don't you help them llftr
That tlmlier is too heavy for them to lift,"
"No," he said, "I won't; I um a corporal."
Tho gentleman got off his horse nnd came
up to tho place. "Now," ho said to tlio
soldiers, "nil together yo heavol" nnd the
timber went to ita place. "Now," said thu
gentleman to tho corporal, "when you have
u pleco of timber too heavy for the men to
lift, and you wunt help, you send to your
cominundcr-lu-chlef." ItwnsWiwhitirOinl
Now, that is nbout all tho gospel ! know
tho gospel of giving somebody a lift, a lift
out of darkness, a lift out of earth into
heaven. That Is the gospel of helping
somebody ulse to lift.
"Oh," says somo wiseacre, "talk as you
will, the lnw of demand and supply will
regulate these things until tho end of
time." No, it will not, unless God dies
und tho batteries of tho judgment day uro
spiked, nnd Pluto und Proserpine, king
nnd queen of tho Infernal regions, take full
possession of this world. Do you know
who Supply und Demand uro? They have
gone into partnership, und they propose to
swindle tills earth and aro swindling It.
You aro drowning. Supply nnd Demand
stand on tho shoreone on ono side, tho
other on tho other sldo of the l'fo boat, aud
they cry out to you: "Now, you pay us
what wo ask you for getting you to shore,
or go to tho bottoml" If you can borrow
$3,000 you can keep from falling in busi
ness. Supply nnd Dcma.id say: "Now, you
pay us exorbitant usury or you go Into
bankruptcy!" This robber firm of Supply
nnd Demand say to you: "Tho crops are
short. Wo !o tight up nil the wheat and it
is In our bin. Now, you pay our prico or
starve!" That Is your magnlllcent law of
supply and demand.
Supplyund Dcmund own the largest mill
on earth, und nil the rivers roll over their
wheel, und Into their hopper they put all
tho men, women nnd children they can
shovel out of the centuries nnd the blood
nnd the bones redden t lie valley whllo the
mill grinds. Thnt diabolic law of supply
and demand will yet have to stand aside,
and Instead thereof will como tho law of
love, tho law of i-o-operutlon, tho law of
kindness, the law of sympathy, tho law of
Christ.
A ItECO.VCILIATION IS I'ltOlIlSKI).
Have you no Idea of the coming of such
11 tlmef Then you do not lelleve tho Blblo.
All the Blblo Is full of promises on this
subject, uud as tho uges roll on tho tlmo
will come when men of fortune will bo
giving larger sums to humanitarian aud
evangelistic purposes, und thcro will lie
more James Iamioxcs und Peter Coopers
nnd William E. Dodges uud George Peu
bodys. As that tlmo comes thero will lie
moro parks, moro picture galleries, moro
gardens thrown open for tho holiday peo
plo nnd tho working classes.
I was reading somo time ago, in regard
to n charge that had been made In Knglaud
against Iimbeth palace, that It was exclu
sive; and that charge demonstrated the
sublime fact that to tho grounds of that
wealthy estato eight hundred poor families
had freo pusses, nnd forty croquet compa
nies, nud ontiio half duy holidays four
thousund iwox people recline on tho grass,
wulk through tho paths, and sit under
tho trees. Thut is gospel gospel on the
wing, gospel out of doors worth just a
much as Indoors. That tlmo is going to
como.
Thnt is only a hint of what to going to
be. Tho timo is going to como when, if
you havo anything in your house worth
looking nt pictures, pieces of sculpture
you uro going to Invite mo to como und see
it; you are going to Invito my friends to
,como and see it, and you will say, "Seo
what I have liecn blessed with! God has
given mo this, nnd, so fur as enjoying it, it
is yours also," That is gospel.
In crossing the Alleghany mountains,
ninny years ago, tho stugo halted, anil
Henry Clay dismounted from tho stage
and went out on n rock at tho very verge
of tho cliff, aud ho stood there with his
cloak wrapped about him, aud ho seemed
to bo listening for something. Some one
said to him, "What are you listening for?"
Standing there, on tho top of tho mount
ain, ho said: "I am listening to tlio tramp
of tho footsteps of the coming millions of
tlijs continent," A sublime posture for an
American statesman' You nnd I today
Htnud on tho mountain top of privilege,
and on tho rock of uges, nnd wo look off,
uud wo hear coming from tho future tho
happy Industries, nud smiling populations,
and the consecrated fortunes, uud tho in
numerable prosperities of thocloslng Nine
teenth nnd tho opening Twentieth century.
And now I lmvo two words, ono to cap
italists nud tho other to laboring men.
To the capitalists: Bo your own executors.
Ma!;e Investments for eternity. Do not be
llko hoiuo capitalists I know who walk
around among their employes with n super
cilious air. or drive up to tho factory In n
tnnnner which neem.4 to Indicate thoy are
tho autocrats of tho universe- with tho sun
nnd moon in their vest pockets, chiefly anx
ious wlwu thoy go among laboring men
not to Lo touched by tho greasy orsmlrchod
hand nnd httvo their broadcloth Injured.
Bo n ChrUtlnu employer. Hcuioinbor thoso
who are under your charge aro Ikiiio of
your bono and llesli of your flesh, that
Jesus Christ tiled for them nnd t hat t hey aro
Immortal. Divide up your estates, or por
tions of them, for tho relief of tho world
before you leave It. Do not go out of tho
world llko thnt man who died eight or ten
years ago, leaving In his will twenty mill
ion dollars, yet giving how much for tho
church of Godf How much for tho nllovl
ntion of human suffering? Ho gavo somo
money n little whllo before hu died. Thnt
was well; but iu nil this will of twenty
million dollars, how much? Ono million?
No. Flvo hundred- thousand? No. Ono
hundred dollars? No. Two cents? No.
Ono cent? No, These great cities groan
ing In anguish, nations crying out for tho
bread of everlasting life. A man In a will
giving twenty millions of dollars and not
ono cent to God I It is a disgrace to our
civilization,
Till: OA1NH OP LAIIOIIINO MEN.
To tailoring mom I congratulate you on
your prospects. I congratulate you pn the
fact thnt you aro getting your representa
tives nt Albany, nt Hnrrlsburg, and nt
Washington. This will go on until you
will have represontutlves nt nil tho head
quarters, and you will havo full Justice.
Mnrk that. I congratulate you also on the
opportunities for your children. Your clill
dren are going to havo vast opportunities,
I congratulate you that you have to work
nnd that when you lire dead your children
will have to work. I congratulate you also
on your opportunities of Information. Plato
paid ono tliousand three hundred dollars
fur two Ixmks. Jerome ruined himself,
financially, by buying 0110 vulumoofOrlgcn.
What vast opportunities for Intelligence for
you and your children) A workiugman
goesulonghy tho show window of somo
great publishing house aud ho sees 11 book
that costs live dollars. Ho says, "I wish
I could have that Information; I wish I
could raise live dollars for that costly nnd
lieuutlful Isiok." A few months nuss on
nnd ho gets tho vuluo of that book for fifty
cents iu a pamphlet. There never was such
n day for the workiugmen of America as
tho day thut Is coming.
But tho greatest friend of capitalist und
toller, uud tho one who will yet bring them
together In complete accord, was born ono
Christmas night whllo tho curtins of
heaven swung, stirred by tho wings an-
gcflc. Owner of all things all tho conti
nents, nil worlds, uud nil tho islands of
light. Capitalist of Immensity, crossing
over to our condition. Coming into our
world, not by gate of palace, but by door
of barn. Spending his first night amid
tho shepherds. Gathering afterward around
him thu fishermen to bo his chief attend
ants. With ndzo, uud saw, nnd chisel, nnd
ax, and In n curiicntcr shop showing him
self brother with tho tradesmen. Owner
of ull things, uud yet on a hillock buck
of Jerusalem onodny resigning everything
for others, keeping not so much as a shekel
to nay for his obsequies. By charity
buried in tho suburbs of a city thnt had
cast him out. Before tho cross of such a
capitalist, aud such u carpenter, nil men
can afford to shako hands und worship.
Here is tho every man's Christ, None so
high but ho was higher. None so poor
but ho was poorer. At his feet tho hostilo
extremes will yet renounce their ani
mosities, and countenances which havo
glowered with tho prejudices and revenge
of centuries shall brighten with tho smllo
of heaven as ho commands: "Whatsoever
yo would thut men should do to you, do ye
even so to them!'
