A Hrrtnon lo
Hcv. C. W. Siivlilfro wlilrussed his lust
evening's dtscout-tu lit the Suwuril direct M.
E. Church to thu employcri of domestic ser
vants. This text WIIH taken from Colloslans ,
4 ; 1 : "Musters glvo tmto .your sei vants that
which Is just and equal ; knowing also that i'c
liuvo u master In liniven. " God hare speaks
in hehiilf of the lowly and needy. He speaks
for those who cannot speak for themselves.
Husald his mission to enitli was to heal
biokcn hearts and to open prison doors.
And wo know he has a tin-lit Held oven in our
inlilnt. find speaks these words toou. .
People are so liberal of the gospel. They
l lvo it all away. Let every person hci e who
has n servant , weigh these words of this
( Jreat Teacher well. God looks down on
this city to-night and sees that the sciviinU
uro niistieatcd mid wronged.
The moat of our servants como f rnm nrross
the water , and when they land at Castle Gar
den their trouble begins. Muny u i miner
and agent at this gateway for strangers will
have to account for the wiongit done to the
IgnoVant and helpless. Uemcmber , God
keeps a record. Again , they are. mudo to feel
that they arc servants in your hornet. Tluit
Idea is forced upon them at every tuin.
They are made to ki\owwliutu \ stinging tiling
it is to bo poor and utterly dependent. The
mistress of the house bus her place , and the
servant has her proper place , but the diflor-
i-iice of position gives no one this right to en
slave the human soul. It is our mission liero
to help and lift up , rather tliun to sudden , de
grade. Some are made to do unnecessary
work. Many feel that the sci vaut girl must
work fifteen hours u day seven days in a
wielc , or she will not earn the paltry sum she
gets. When she Unifies the long round of
dally woik she is told "to wash the doois or
windows , " or something of that hort , though
tlie work Is not needed.
A weakly girl said to one of our ladies the
other day : "I want to come to your house
and rest. " Take it to yourself. How would
you enjoy llfo if it were one eternal grind.
Ydur work would be done better if your ser
vant had an hour or two to rct-l every day.
Others have poor and insuflieieiitfpod. The
sci vants wait till the second tulile , but often
the Ill-it table eats up all the food. 1 know
of one family In this town who cannot keep
servants from tills one fact , t hut they won't
give them enough to cat. And these are lolk's
who put oiflots of style , too. It seems to mo ,
1 if J were a brass-collurcd dog , I would try tii
carry it out in belter shupo than that.
Many a poorgirl in this town has bcciichcutcd
out of her pay clieiitcd out of money she
earned over a coik stove and a wash tub.
A man who will cheat ills washerwoman or
his servant is getting pretty low. Hut this is
u thing which many society and ehui ch people
ple do in this city. If some uf you uro sur
prised that i hutch members should do such
u thing as this , I would say that the mini who
only nlakcs a profession of religion will do as
uiean things as the devil wants him lo.
Again , as the servants work is now ar
ranged , in many cases she has no time to go
to worship God. The majority of the ser
vant girls Imvo no Subbath. The people
whom they servo sleep latcon Sabbath moi n-
ing , so that they arc of necessity lutu in be
ginning their work. And the Sunday dinner
is the uftalrof the week. Hundreds of girls
in our hotels and privalu homes never go Ui
L church , and many cannot go. The employers
g.6 in.uomu cases , and are apparently very de
vout , but a piety which will allow its pos
sessor to sleep so lute that the servant is kept
from the houfco of prayer , Is of precious little
worth.
And last , but not least , the servant often
i has her good name and character
taken from her by her employer. If
you doubt what I say on { his point ,
como to me and I will prove it to you. Ciod
knows it is true , and * > o do you know it.
Some of you know that it has gotten out
among the neighbors that the reason your
wife has to change girls so often Is that her
husband is such a low bred cur. The facrv-
loils won't stay in the house with you.
Not very far from this church is u beauti
ful residence. For a few weeks within the
past year , a trusty servant girl had charge of
the house , and u man had charge of the
grounds and the stables , This man offered
olio insult after another , till she linally told
her employer , nml he said to her , as lie
handed her n , pistol : "Ulow the top of his
head off. " The man in the stable had nothing
iflora to say.
I would to God it were only stable men I
had to chifgo with the moral ruin of poor
servant girls. Let mo give you a typical
cnsoof the way Ibis-deviltry is curried on in
many homes. A most respectable and excel
lent servant girl unites with one of the city
churches. She is employed In u homo of
wealth and so-called refinement. The occu
pants of Unit home have a pluco and a naino
in the church of .lesus. They are highly re
spected neople. The girl attends the services
faithfully , but seems to get no rest of heart.
Two years have passed since she united with
God's people. She A-UII btand it no longer.
She tells hfr pastor that for two
years slio has been compelled to bo the
mistress of her employer , mid asks
' 1n the iiiwnaof God what she shall do ! Ho
tells her to bring her trunl ; to his house and
he will llnd her a good place . This minister
takes her to a phico which ho believes to bo
above reproach. The owner of that homo
; stands well in society and in the church. At
the end of two yearn that servant girl is sent
to Chicago to give birth to his child. And do
you know that this awful wickedness is going
on all through our society and our churches I
I know now wliaC Josh Billings meant when
ho said , "Tho more business I have to do
with men , the better opinion I Imvo of dogs. "
These two reasons arc given for the moral
ruin ol servants : They nro dependent and
they arc ignorant. Uut I add u third and it
is the supreme reason The awful depravity
of the employers.
Looking again into tlm text we POO plainly
the way they should bo .treated. "Masters ,
glvo unto your servants that which is just
and equal. " That means humane , honest ,
Christian treatment and God expects this at
our hands. They should look upon our serv
ants as our equals before God , however un
equal they may bo in education
and intelligence.Vo should treat
them as having immortal souls , and as
r these who will stand at tho.judsiucnt with
us. And to bring this about let the preachers
and churches speak out. In the name of God
is this state of things right or wrong ) If It is
Tight , let us applaud It , hut If it is wrong , let
us cry nlQiid and spare not. Many u win I is
going down to hell , and the preachers are as
still as tha grave as to'tho real fnus'JS. They
ic-l ! us , "Tho people uro re II nod and dollcato
on these points , wo" cannot touch upon them , "
Let men stop these bins and I will shut my
mouth , out not till then. The devil just
laughs when u preacher takes up some old ,
dead isnuo.but when ho strikes at the living ,
awful sins , ho is frightened.
Then , too , your homes must bo oonvcitcd.
God says to-day , "Come thou and all thy
house into the ark. " And this invitation is
addressed to the man of the house. Tills
world will go to hell if the men are not saved.
Only pure religion bestowed by Jesus , can
, root out this biipremo bcllNhnchi in the sin
ful heart. God send us a mighty revival in
our churches.
In conclusion this text tells us the reason
which God gave for treating the servants
well. "Yo'lmvo n mas-tor in heaven. " The
recording angel has been writing. Von will
stand before the Judge and the jxior Rorvnnt
you have cheated or degreded will stand by
i your bide , ami with inllnito shame and re
morse you will hear the awful word "Do-
part , " and you will tnko your way to the
regions of the "damned. " In the n.nno of
Jt'oiis I ask you to turn your nclc on iriti uiul
set your face as u Hint toward heaven ,
Hi-mum to
Qllov. W. J. Hurhha preached lust night the
hccoml dUcours-0 In his Scries to working men
and women. After acknowledging. his obli
gallon to certain books , whoso facts and tig
urea ho would refer to fivoly , ho tool : for his
text Exodus 2:15 : : "Ho sat down by the
well. " Thcso. .words refer to Moses. Ono
day ho walked out from the Paluco of % the
Pharaohs , where was his home , ' and saw ono
of his Hebrew brethren jjrlovo'usly uftlicted
nml nbuieil by nn Kfyptlnh , The Inbor ques
tion tlifii was us picssilig us it Is to-day *
MOM-S looked iibout him cautiously lo seothut
no cue was looking nml then he rose ngnlnst
the oppressor anil slew him. Ho hid the
body In the omul nml thought no one would
know of the occurrence. .Hut It wns dlscov-
civil and Muse * wns compelled to flee for his
life. He cninc to n cool , shady spot , besldo
oncof the e wells which me such u blessing
n n hot country , mid there ho rested him
self. No doubt ho was deeply pondering tlu3
burdens of toll , tli complications between
apltal nnd labor , nnd all the dark problems
which have engaged the minds of men from
Homer to Henry Gcoige. It was a very do-
ightful place for rest midmeditation. . Our
Lord afterwards found It e > o when he tnlked
with the woman of .Syuhur nt the limof Ja
cob's well.
Let us go a little more mliuitely Into the
labor question to-night. Wo nro Interested
In the moral aspects of It Just as Moses wns.
That hour's meditation at tlio well may Imvo
prepared him for understanding God's wise
irovlslons for the good of laborers after
wards given from Mount Slnnl. And we
may bo profltted by our study to-night.
1 intimated to you last Sabbath evening
Llmt one of the causes of the present dlfllculty
'
between capital nnd labor , 'one of the reason's
why we have such a largo unemployed chits ,
Is found in the remarkable growth of cities.
Undoubtedly the. building of a city calls for a
large amount of skilled and unskilled labor ,
yet such vast multitudes flock to the modern
cities that it is Impossible to supply them nil
with work. This is an ngo unlike any that
lias gone before. Upon the Nineteenth cent
ury have fnllen certain changes in the social
and industrial conditions of mankind that ut
most amount a revolution. Wo live in the
age of great cities. In olden times Home was
the only great center of population in the
world. Now that city is left quite in the
shndo by London and Paris and Canton ,
while our own mctroimlls Is fully her equal.
Look moro closely at London , for example.
Three hundred yearn ago she was considera
bly smaller than .the present. Hoston ; i00 !
years ago she had about the | Kpul.ition that
is now claimed for Chicago ; to-day you must
l > ilo together New York. Philadelphia , Hrook-
lyn , ( Jhic.-tgo , Hoston , St. Louis , Haltimore ,
Cincinnati and Han Francisco to make a Lon
don. It has been said : "Moro people live in
London alone than in the whole of Holland ;
more than in Sweden ; more than in Portu
gal ; more than in Ireland or Canada ; more
by 1,000,000 than in Scotland. " What an im
mense concourse of people In nnarea of a few
square miles. Muecauhiy boasted that in his
day ho walked through every street in the
city , but to do that now it would be neces
sary to walk 2,500 miles. Three hundred and
fifty more persons limy bo expected to sleep
iti London to-night than slept there last
night-V'OO moro than u week ago to-night.
Every month adds acityof 10,000 inhabitants ;
Every year one of 1 ! > . - > ,000 inhabitants.
Tliis may be taken ns a fair sample of what
is going on in a small scale on the continent
of Europe and in the new republic of Amer
ica. The great drift of population istowaid
the cities. And it will be moro ami more so.
Man attracts man. Ten men liuvo a stronger
nit ruction than one man. and u crowd of men
moro than ten. So the larger a city becomes
the more will it draw men into its busy
vortex. Thomas Jefferson called cities "great
sores on the body politic , " mid they arc sores
that will never bo healed.
Machinery has lessened the number of
men needed in the country , nnd consequently
wo Imvo flocks of laborers in the cities.
What shall we do with them ! What do they
demand to have done i Now among the un
employed there are some who are ptire an
archists , and these simply demand that
capital shall bo destroyed and capitalists
killed. Such persons set lire to Paris in
May , 1S"1 , and destioyed immense amounts
of railway property in Pittsbtirg and other
places in 1ST" , find threw the bomb a year are
that caused such death in Chicago. Every
respectable workman is opposed to such
methods , and wo may simply say of nnurch-
isrs that they are to be relegated to the police.
Then there are some who demand that all
governments shall bo cli.iuged so that in
some way workingmen shall be on a par
with capitalists. Thcso arc called commun
ists. They would have all things in common.
They agree to this extent , though they differ
greatly as to the means of accomplishing tills
end. Communism abroad has sometimes
taken the assassin's knife or pistol in its
hand. On the 11th of May , 1S7S , it attempted
to take the life of the emperor of Germany.
Now It is possible for governmental enact
ments to remove a portion of thoburdens upon
the working classes. The enormous armies
abroad might bo lessened , for example ; and so
the taxation of the poor might be reduced.
In our own country certain wise measures of
money circulation might be devised to help
the needy and give employment to the unem
ployed.
Then there. is the anti-poverty society ,
which claims that there is something radi
cally wrong with the fundamental principle
of property. Henry George would have the
use of the soil as free ns the use of the atmosphere -
mosphero and claims that it can be. His
views are brilliant and plausible , but it seems
to mo they can never bo realized in any state
of .society less than the angelic.
Then there are the various guilds and labor
associations and for many of them I have
the warmest admiration. The Engineer's
union and the Knights of Labor seem to mo
very worthy associations. If wo had moro
men like Mr. Powdcrly and moro of a dispo
sition to heed his wise directions iuid re-
qiicsts-lho labor problem would not be so
dark as now it is.
Hut I haven't time to attempt a solution of
the problem to-night. That will como up in
the course of our discussion. Hut meanwhile
there nro two or three things' which workingmen -
ingmon need to know. The first is , just what
labor is. Hrielly It is the employment of the
stiength mid ingenuity of man to make the
things and conditions of nature better. Then
they need to know that n man lias nn abso
lute right to the fruits of his toil , whether it
bo a silver dollar or a piece of land or what
not. This gives labor as the foundation of
capital mid property ns it undoubtedly is.
Then they need to bo disabused of the old
notion that labor is the creator of all values.
Labor would never make thistle-down as
valuable as cotton. There must bo nn inher
ent value in a thing before labor can bring
it out and increase it. Even in the clay
which the potter uses there is an antecedent
possibility of hardening under lire that makes
the clay with the trouble of moulding it into
a jar. Labor augments but docs not create
all values.
Above all , the laborer needs to know nnd
practice ChrM's command , "Lovo thy
neighbor as thyself. " This will go far to
solve the labor problem.
