A Frank Statement Weare frank in saying that we have not assumed the role of Rewspaper reformers To indicate how “we would run a city newspa- per,” does not traply that there are no newspapers which are being fun according ta methods which would meet with our approval. Most American newspapers are conducted upon a basis, which, for enter Brive, for genius, for wholesome news and Iterary valve, are freqnent- Jy a source of Inspiration and 4 means of education to the great Masses who are dependent upon them for their reading matter. ‘That they are not ideal goes without saying. We belleve that no one recognizes this more keenly than the editors themsetves, What they have failed to accomplish with the advantages of years of train- img and consciefttous, painstaking effost, we do not pretend to be able fo do in a single isaue, The critte may remark that this Issue contains a more than fenerous proportion of matter devoted to religion. It must be bere In mind that Sutday was aster Sunday. It was also a great day in the history of the present revival, both of which are fmportant from the newspaperman’s standpoint. Even under ordinary conditions the paper would devote considerable space to religious toptes. What we might attempt if we planned @ rum The Star as a life Gecupation, is another story. THE EDITORS. The Significance of World Wide Revivals There is evidently a world-wide revival on today. The hour bas struck and the world is moving with mighty raplid~- ity. England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, America and many foreign Jands have witnessed and are witnessing sweeping revivals of the old fashioned sort This is the more significant beeause wo were told by some who revivals had passed forever; and before the prophecy is completed the world is moving In a strange way “Revivalism may be defined as Christianity in earnest.” So wrote W. T. Stead, the great English editor. Im America we call it “evangelistic work," and the purpose of ech an effort is to rouse men from apathy and indifference and to compel them to face squarely the thought.of time and eternity, that they may be ready for both. The world has had a measure of unrest. A part of the human family has been oppressed by those in authority. The marriage vow has been lightly considered; lives have beem wrecked as @ result The whole creation has been groaning ia need. * The revival is God's answer. We must not The teachings of Jegus, the principles of science, and the common sense of men, all meet in approval of a real revival of religion. To make bad men good, cruel men merciful, lazy men indus- trious, the drunkard sober and the selfish man unselfish—this is the work of the revival, amt this is what we are seefng today, where the work is unhindered and where sympathy Is bestowed upon the labor- er. W. T. Stead writes again “It is often urged that revivalism is ephemeral—so are apple blos- oma, but apples are born of them, and history will show that the fruits of revivals are the most permanent things in history.” God ts certainly moving in these days. Woe be with that man who attempts to stop the chariot or touch the ark. You do not believe in revivals? Nonsense! You know you do in business—why not in religion? You do not believe in excitement? Ridieatous! You shout louder than any one else meeting. You do not believe in stirring the emotions? Why not be honest? You know you like the theater where the emotions are played upon like a harp in a master’s hand. You fear a reaction? But that does not keep you from hoping fora “big Prosperity. You do not like evangelists? Neither does the devil! You betieve im eulture rather than in revivals? Remember that we don't cu'tivate dead trees. A true revival means better cities, better homes, better lives, bet- ter newspapers, better books—better everything. And this present revival bears the marks of being true i J. WILBUR CHAPMAN. Some Phases of the Labor Question Failure to the unions has probably been the cause of mare labor troubles than any other one reason, Just what this re cognition implied varied according to local etrewumstances and cond!- tions. In most cases it meant the closed shop, or the employment of only union labor. The Citizens’ Alliance maintains that its members insist upon the ‘Open shop, or the employment of men regardless of their affiliation with labor organizations, As a matter of fact, however, It is a well known axiom among workingmen that the so-called “open shop” is practically a ‘closed shop” to trade unionists. Without discussing the merits of the question, it is interesting to Bote that at # recent conference in Chicago of the leading students of social problems.in this country—men who are the recognized anthort ties on such questions—-the disensston almost favor Of the closed shop, the tople being discussed purely upon high ethical principles. The labor union has come (6 stay. This tact might better be recognized. It has come to stay because the principle of organized labor Is right, even though things done in its name aré wrong. “Isolated cases of intimidation, of unfair Gamands, of “graft in leadership, do not indicate the real trend of organized Tabor. What is true with regard to the labor union in this reapect was true of practieally every reform during ite earlier history. One need not go very far back into the history of the church to find duplicated nearly everything that is being used as an argument against the trade One hardly ineist that the same thing is true of organizations The eure for bad fam means conservative unicnism As men appreciate their responsibility and thetr power they are Slways inclined towards conservatism Qiarters that the workingman has no right to strike under any cir @umstances, Does not that assertion indicate a claim to Infallibility @nd to some other things which one does not like to mention, which is simply absurd?
