AN INTERESTING LECTURE DELIVERED BY MB. JOWN BRISREN WALKER—PLAIN TALK AS TO THE RE- SPONSIPILITY OF DUNISTERS AND LAYMEN FoR EVILS THAT AFFLICT TITS OENERATION. The lecture room of the Catholic University was well filled yesterday afternoon with ar in- telligent audience that listened with close atten- | tion toa lectare on “Social Problems for Church and State,” by John Brisben Walker, Ph. D. | Mr. Walker is well known asa thinker and writer of great power, and his lecture was in som spects a remarkable effort in the boldness with whieh he brought home to clergy and laymen their responsibility for many of the social diffi- culties that beset our civilization. No such plain speaking has been heard upon a platform | under similar circumstances, and for this reason as well as because of the food for thought to every one interested in the welfare and pros- perity of his race and the government under which we live that an extended report of the lecture is given. Mr. Walker sai Tam thankful to your distinguished rector fo: the opportunity to address You. upon the great probleme which are now stirring deeply all classes and conditions of men. ‘The honor of his invitation is the greater, that as students of this Catholic University of Ame: not mere seminarists, but represe vast chureb.

Immediately upon the opening of the Cali- fornin senate yesterday Senator Voorhees in- troduced a joint resolution calling upon both houses to appoint a committee of three to meet ith the attorney general for the purpose of investigating the document found in the state library on Tuesday. The committee was ap- pointed. The house took similar action, and =P connected with the matter. Ex-Congressman Charles N. Felton wrote a peromptory letter Tuesday to the attorney Rensral, demanding that he disclose the actual facts and proceed against any one who might be involved, even by implication, in the alleged wrong-doing.

Merciful God! How is it possible for a fam- ily whose income is $1.00 a day, not counting days of sickness, to exist, much less to know anything of happiness? Let those who find it troublesome to get along on $1,500 u year or 35,000 a y 20,000 a year —und each of these incomes finds its possessor under cramped and uncomfortable limitations in these days of wealth—ponder deeply these questions. And above all, if they have children, let them ask what will be the position of their groat-grand- children in a republic whose laws encourage the iniquitous accumulations of the few strong at the expense of the weak many. We ure producing today in this country more than all of its inhabitants can consume, and yet fully one-third of the labor 1s wasted in ef- forts which are neceseary under our social sys- tem, but which are of no benefit to mankind atlarge. ‘Ihe efforts to force people to buy the waste through uncombined service, the time spent in proteeting one’s rights—all mean joss s0 great that if checked the working hours could be reduced 33 per cent and the pro- duction of wealth increased.

The reforms which are proposed are not concerned with the abstract question of the individual right to own private property. but whether laws are to continue to be passed under which distribution is unequal and mmequitable—all the advantages to those Who are in the swim, all the exceptions and struggies to those who are without. WEALTH IN THE HANDS OF A FEW. One has only to turn to the list of miilion- aires, of ten-millonaires and even fifty-mil- lionaires to understand how rapidly the wealth of the country is being centered in the hands of the few. It is, however, most idle to inveigh against wealth on the’ one hand and poverty un the other, unless men ean be induced to’ believe that hot everything of even temporal happi- ness is dependent upon such riches. That we | 1 is filled with people anxious nos only for their own release from strife, but for their neighbor's greater comfort, is proven by the pormous Int in such volumes as M: Beliamy's. N halfa million copies have | been sold of “Looking Backward” book of no great literary merit, but treating of the conditions of life under which we live. POPULAR EDUCATION I8 PROURESSING. The education of the people of the United States is progressing with marvelous rapidity. ‘The great corporations themselves are leading | educators. The economy of large operations with a single direction has been so evident that year by year the greuter railways have heen gobbling up the little ones—the large express companies the lesser ones—the big oil companies the weak ones. Street railways in | cities, from being in many different hands, | have come by purchase to be operated by | single companies. Steamboat and transporta- tion companies have bech consolidated into mammoth lines. Local telegraph stocks have Aisuppeared from the market and electrical communication throughotit every portion of the United States is under the control of one board of directors, ‘Telephones were placed under a central control from the start at last great stores like Mr. Wanamaker's and Macy's are conducting such vast ‘business | upon such slight expenditure for management | aud rent that the shop and amall merchant are | rapidly disappearing from the face of the | earth. What becomes of the merchant? He becomes | a clerk in the establishment of bis successful rival, and lives upon sich allowance as his ri- val out of his bounty or stinginess chooses to make—just us dependent as were the con- quered kings and princes in olden times upon | the generosity of their couquerors. YURTHEK CONSIDERATION OF BALLWAYS. Not content with lines of railway, that in the case of some companies aggregate 10,000 miles, there are movements on foot tor still far- ther consolidation,and it is not improvable tI within five or even less years we inay have two or three companies controlling practically all! the railway hnes of the Uuited States. Why is all this consolidation and combination? ‘Be- no longer found to be momist of the last contury denominated it, “the life of trade”, but instead a ruinously expensive and unnatural thing. ‘The lesson learued by the managers of | the Great corporations and trusts is slowly making Mts way into the heads of the common people. Formerly a letter was carried by private euter- prise at great expense and with inuch risk to the seader. Now the government carries the sume missive at one-fifth the cost, with a guaranty of safety, and the Post- master General, controlling ‘the distribution of the mails through 20,000 post offices, receives only about one-tenth the salary paid to a great express company. If the government can han- dle the mails so safely aud efficiently, and at such a mininum of expense, why not’ express packs Aud if it eau ship the mail and ex- press packages over a railway, why should it not take are of the passenger and his telegram and his telephone message? KEEVENS OF THE TOLL OATES. In the great corporations we recognize the keepers of the toll gates on our highways, to whom we grant privileges by law, and we un- derstand that from their tolls (excused by watered stocks) aro accumulated those great fortunes which in ther accumulation sap the life blood of the laborer, and by their aceamu- lation raise up privileged class who become the greatest menace to a government, intended by its founders to be “of the people—by the people—for the people.” Nor am [altogether sure that the time has not come when the owners of the great corpor- ations have not only paved the way for govern ment control, by showing how trusts may be managed, but when their own interests demand government ownership as the easiest way out of the accumulating diificulties. ‘The president ‘of one of the great lines of railway, who was in ty office recently, in the course of conversation about railway matters said that he was then enguged in Watching the legislatures of thirteen states and territories through which his line d._Legislation in any one of them, might cost his roa:t millions of dollars. He did not say so, but from such a task of ceaseless anxiety he might turn with thoughts of relief to conversion of his fortune into government bonds—au annual interest which would be aid ly without worry upon the part of Salter ine bonde—e percentage bontribated cheerfully by the farmers and owners of mov- ing crops, because they would no longer feel that what they paid was merely g. ing to enrich men already overloaded with weaith. WHAT OUR CIVIL SERVICE CAN DO Could a civil service be perfected which would manage such great interests and not en- danger free institations by the power it would give at the polls? We need not fear. If our civil service 3s net been ports it was be- cause we have hed no great thing different.

Mr. Walker then quoted several paseages from the Scripture which bear heavily upon the rich and concinded as foliows: It we stop to ponder these frightful words, recollecting the unnecessary comforts by which we sur- round ourselves—the grasping for more which is the effort of our lives with so many of us and the unrelieved poverty that we kiow to be at our very doors—we must either question our belief in christianity or doubt our own sin- cerity if not indeed our own sanity. What does it all mean? How ean we be cheerfal and happy and comfortable with such words ring- ing 1 our ears. PLUCKY YOUNG HUNTERS. | | ‘Two young hunters, Charles W. Barnet and | Andrew Deibel, both of whom live in Masebae, Conn., started early yesterday morning to hunt in the swamps about three miles below their homes. In crossing one of the man: deep streams in the swamp Deibel dropped hi gun, which struck or the log on which the men were walking. The charge entered Barnet's hip, rendering him helpless. Deibel in at- tempting to grasp the fallen gun lost bis bal- ance and fell into the stream. He was unable to grasp the log and could not climb the bank. Barnet in his disabled condition could render no assistance. The water was cold and Deibel told his companion that unless aid was sum- mored he would have to let go his hold.
