TIHHE OMAHA DAILY BEE: M@NDAY, OCTOBER 29 OMAHACHARITY MISDIRECTED Indiscriminate Giving Increasing the Num- ber of Local Paupers Year by Year, REV. D. D, ODELL FLEADS FOR A CHANGE Money Spent In Making Gifta Should Te | Used In Payment of Wages to the Poor for Whom Employment Should Be Found. At the Beth Eden Baptist church yester. day morning the pastor, I D.D. Odelt, preached from the text: “Ye have the poor with you always.”” He said in part: Pauperism has its causes, and I believe, by | wise legislation, avoiding the errors of class | legislation on the one hand and soclalism on | the other, the evil can be remedied 1 shall mention, in the first place, a few causes which ding to this distorted state of society. I shall not discuss them at | length. This Is not prerogative of the pulpit, but of the legi In the first place, without doubt one of the prime causes in the land is the selfish basis on which soclety Is buflt. The law of trade makes it possible for men to grow up like mushrooms In a single night to vast vast influence, and man's selfish nature pushes him on toward the accumulation of riches. Mammonism Is one of the curses of the Anglo-Saxon race. The law of exchange 18, “Get as much as you possibly can for the Jeast possible return.”” The rich not alone are actuated by this principle. The laboring man demands the greatest possible wages for the least possible work, and the rich man demands a maximum amount of labor for the | least possible return. This prineiple makes | capital the open and avowed enemy of labor | and labor the open enemy of capital. The strugle goes on; the battle wages hard all over our country, and in the tussle usu- ally the laboring man ¢omes out second best The rage of Mammon is almost universal Parents sceking alliance for their children are desirous that they shall marry into rich families; no matter what other qualification Is lacking, if the pocket book is long. P rents desiring positions for their sons will | seek the most lucrative, no matter to wl temptations they are exposed, and it some- tlmes occurs that well-meaning parents thus rifice their sons and daughters on the altar of Mammon HARM OF UNWISE GIVING. Another cause of the present wretched con- dition of tens of thousands of our people is false charity. Indiscriminate glying will auperize people. The rich, that they may rOW a so0p to conscience when they are Peasting sumptuously every day, and well aware that thousanis have scarcely a crust to keep the wolf from the door, will give in Buch a way as to destroy the manhood and womanhood of those whom they wish to re- Meve. What the poor need today Is not to be treated as if they were malmed and needy, but to be furnished with some way by Wwhich they can earn an homest livelihood Last winter the indiscriminate charity of well meaning people of Omaha created more paupers than they relieved. Well meaning women, who are supposed fo have finer sen- sibilities than men, hunted up people on Whom to bestow their benefactions, and the Tesult is this winter we shall have a fresh brood that we pauperized last winter. There ought to be, and I am advised that a movement is on foot 1o that end, a unifica- tlon of all churches, that every case of appl cation for relict may be Investigated man, who can possibly support himself, hould be supported by his fellow man. 1t destroys his manhood. Take for instance the result from history. In the days of Julius Caesar 180,000 of the Roman citizens were furnished with free corn. This number steadily Increased until the time of Justinian, when 800,000 of that noble race had ben pauperized by the public freely distribyting corn, and they - theri- de- manded not only ¢orn, but wine and meat The result was that Rome became a great poor houze. The noble virtue of the Romans was dissipated. During the m'ddle ages, Wwhen Indiscriminate giving of the Christian church was one of its most prominent fea- tures, and monasteriies all over Burope be- eame depots of supply for mendcant vil- llans that roamed from place to place too lazy to earn their living, Europs was, in- deed, a great pauper house, and just to the extent that Europe was pauperized, just to that extent she became barberous, effeminate and wicked, In the days of Queen Elizabeth there were passed poor laws, which contemplated the rellet of the poor, which In a few years In creased pauper'sm to such an alarming ex. | tent that parliamenitary investigation and the changing of the laws was necessary. REMEDY SUGGESTED. What are we going to do? In the first place, we must carefully discriminate In our rellef of the poor. Not one In ten of those making application for assistance ought to be assisted by giving them supplies. We may assist them; we may relieve them, but In other ways than by giving them food. One of the great mistakes that the Christian church has made is to suppose that relief for the poor means simply the giving of food and raiment. “Is not the life more than meat, and the body more than rui- ment?" I8 there not a soul within? Throw open the churches; throw open the libraries; throw open your homes, and invite the poor Into your homes that they may catch an Inspiration that will raise them up rather than drag them down. Bid them welcome in the churches and make them feel that one of the chief prerogatives of the preacher of Jesus Christ s to break the bread of eternal life to the poor, I believe the time will soon come when such_Institutions as Rescue hall and other private institutions of benevolence of every city will be dispensed with entirely. One by one they should be blotted out. Keep only what Is necessary for the few on whom mi fortune has been visited and who are un- able to support themselves. ' What shall we do with these people? Combine the chariti Into one great institution, called an emplo; ment ‘bureau, if you please. Take the § 000 that was paid last year for the relief of the poor, add to it from $100,000 to $200,000 that went through private and public charity institutions, use this amount in employing these men in feve ing the hills and grading the city, in build- ing magnificent roads into the country, and If you wish to extend the principle farther than this, let us have a large standing army not such an army as England owns for the purpose of war, but let us have a standing army of 2,000,000 or 5,000,000, as the ca may be, whose busingss it shall be to dam | the Niobrara and Plitte rivers and other | rivers, and dig canals to irrigate the arid lands of our country. _ Give them employ ment; use the money that ‘we thus spend to pauperize these men to pay them for their honest toll, and in this way we shall our country grow purer and richer, and there shall be peace, prosperity and plenty in the land.

Dr. Butler, to be the guests of the St Mary's Avenue Congregational church at the morning service yesterday. The fine company of men in a body in the center of the chureh, the chancel, the preacher, Dr. Butler, ulso In his chapiain uniform, gave a characteris- tically martial appearance, the tone of which was sustained throughout the service, Instead of the first hymn a selection was rendered by the company's glee club and Mr. Carl Hoffman, the soloist of the Rifies, sang during the offering The chaplain's text was: warreth entangleth himself, that please him that hath chosen him soldier,” In part, Dr. Butler sald There 1s a charm in this word soldler—the inspiration of & trumpet.

The day for the soldier is not done. Right and freedom are not delicate nymphs by Sylvan streams, but mailed warriors in struggling ranks. Since the June roses bloomed the soldier was required in our sis- ter city to check the incendiary conflagra- tions that had consumed millions in capital and threatened the foundations of our goy- ernment. General 0. O. Howard, in his final report just dssued, preceding his retire- ment from ‘service by age, urges the in- crease of the army, So our citizen soldlery have a higher use than to adorn a holiday They are a healthful check upon a riot spirit latent, which, unawed, might material- fize Hence we welcome the soldier sons of our city, and with Paul consider the qualities in the soldier that please the commander and the civilian - His physieal bearing onym for bodily soundne What pride has the emperor of Germany in body guard, the queen in the Cold m guards, or the Black watch? 1t will the Creator, who chose us for soldiers in life's campaign, i we honor him bodies which he has chosen for His embodiment Call this life o Soldier 18 sy s and_symmetry own what you will, ady con- tentions engage every faculty.

Yet see, brigades, di visions, army corps of men enrolled on the roster of Nfe to be soldfers so do. What the cohorts of Rome under chosen consuls could not do to Hannibal and his conquering hosts, the luxury and licentiousness of the winte camp at Padua did do, and, defeated, he dis- appeared from history. Sad to see, those “chosen to be soldiers” enmeshed by habits, 80 entangled that they never get on a falr fleld with their foe. Habits of inertness, profitless and expensive amusement, the theater habit, the saloon habit, the nicotine habit—how steal a night surprise on a foe, if you carry always a burning torch in the teeth? Entangied in the gambling habit, which sucks like the tentacles of the devil fish, habits that transform the comrades of Ulysses into swine by their Circean songs.

Yesterday the Burlington began the regular running of trains to Billings, Mont., and by way of the Northern Pacific to Helena, Spo- kane, Butte, Seattle, Tacoma and Portland and all other Montana, northern Idaho and Puget sound polnts, thereby giving to the railroad world another transcontinental lne, which wibl play. no inconsequential part in the mat- tor of freight and passenger traffic of the future. There was considerable of a crowd ot people at the Union depot to see the train and the people who would make the first run over the new extension of the Burlington from Sheridan, Wyo., to Billings, Mont., a distance of 144 miles, which has been con- structed this year, the construction gang laying on an average a mile and a haif of track a day. The building of this line is of incalculable benefit to Omaha, Kansas City, St. Louls, Chicago, bringing a territory of some 1,600 miles in extent almost to the doors of cities. It Is the short line between Omaha and Helena by 295 miles, Omaha and Butte by 226 miles, Omaha and Spokane by 385 miles, Omaha and Seattle by fifty mile Omaha and Tacoma by fifty-five miles, Kan- sas City and Helena by 385 miles, Kansas City and Butte by 815 miles, Kansas City and Spokane by 474 miles, the mileage to these points beiug equally shortened from St, Louis. The country to the northwest almost a sealed book to the wholesale and jobbing intcrests of the big cities along the Missouri, as well as in Illinois and the more east. St. Paul and Minneapolis have ed a monopoly of this territory now for the first time brought into civilization's rim by the progressive pioneer methods of the Burlington system of rails, which now covers auite 7,000 miles The train which left yesterday at 4:50 p m. s carded for very” fast time, scheduled to make the distance between Omaha and Billi 53 miles, in twenty-nine hours, or early miles and hour, which, through the Black Hills country, the route traversed by the Burjington, is regarded exceedingly fast running. Passengers leaving Omaha a 1:50 p. m. will arrive in Billings the follow- ing evening at 9:45 p. m., making close con- nectlo; Wwith the Northern Pacific for the Sound country. The New Short Line, as it will be known henceforth, is more than a mere short line; it is a scenic route, perhaps the most interesting across the continent introducing the traveler to historic battle- flelds, which, until now, have only been seen by the wagoner and ranchman or tourist will- ng to accept the disadvantages of horseback and wagon travel, HISTORIC GROUND TRAVERSED The road travels the entire length of the Crow reservation and permission of the United States government had to be obtained as well as the consent of the Crow chiefs be- fore the work of building the road was be- gun, and no more interested lot of people could be found than the Crows were during the progress of grading and laying the track, and when this first train rushes through the Crow country the red man will wake up to realize that the time s not far distant when the white man will be asking congress to throw open the Crow reservation to white settlement, and. ship the present possessers of this historic soil, upon which General Custer died, as well as his brave boys in blue, to their brethren in the Indian Terri- tory. The New Short Line opens for settle- ment hundreds of thousands of acres of Jand Which need, only water to make them pro- lifie. Already ‘irrigation ditfhes have been put in in antcipation of ihe coming of farmers and planters, and a scheme is now ready for the irrigation of a much greater body of land, which will add to the (illable land of the United States enough farming property to start a new empire in the north. west. ~ The road runs though a country rich in coal and other minerals and through the greatest cattle grazing section of the United States. Hundreds of thousands of head of cattle grow fat on the “blue stem’ grass which grows in abundance on the plains and in the valleys, The line passes through the valleys of the Little nd Big Goose the Tongue river, the Little Big where Custer made his stand against the Sioux, across and down the Big Horn to the valley of the Yellowstone, which is brought almost into the back yard of the Missouri river towns on account of shorten- ing up the distance. The new line, wh'ch s to become a large factor in the commerce of the Missouri and Miesissippi valleys was inaugurated without any flourish of trumpets, but in that quiet conservative manner that has characterized the Burlington management in the past, has been Horn, REACHED LONG PINE ON TIME, Ikhorn's Black Hills Flyer Goes Through Against Difficalties.
