The Aberdare Leader

Mountain Ash County Court. (Continued from Page 7.) RUNAWAY HORSE AT MOUNTAIN ASH. Mrs. M. A. Pugh, of Bailey-street, Miekin, who was represented by Mr. W. Thomas, solicitor, Aberdare, sued Mr. Eli Williams for the sum of jE4 damage to goods and loss on trade in consequence of defendant's horse dashing into her piem'ses. Mr Thomas, in opening, said this was the sequel to the case which His Honour tried at the previous court. A man named Evans had left his bicycle standing in the channel on the road, and tihe defendant, who was a milk vendor, left his horse, and cart to stray along the road, when the cart came into contact with the bicycle, causing the horse to bolt, and causing the damage now claimed. His Honour gave judgment for .£2 10s. and costs. MISKIN HIRING AGREEMENT. Mr. Victor Freed, who was represented by Mr. S. Shipton, solicitor, Mountain Ash, sued Mr. John Williams, of 10, Lower Church-street, Penrhiwceiber, for the sum of £ 3 9s. 9d., value of certain goods and furniture not returned. Mr. W. Thomas, Aberdare, appeared for the defendant. The plaintiff deposed that these goods were part of goods already let out in a hiring agreement, but that the hiring agreement could not be found. Cross-examined by Mr. Thomas as to who had signed the agreement, he said the defendant had, and in answer to Mr. Thomas as to who had ordered the goods, he stated that the defendant's wife had done so. Mr Thomas contended that the defendant's wife could not pledge her husband's credit for goods for another person. His Honour intimated that as the agreement could not be proved, he upheld Mr. Thomas's con- tention, and gave judgment for defend- ant with costs.

Mr D. A. Thomas, M.P., at Aberdare. INTERESTING SPEECH. The Liberal Registration Agents and other workers in the Liberal cause, met at Milee's Restaurant, Aberdare, on Tuesday evening. There were present: Mr D. A. Thomas, M..P., who presided, Mr. D. M. Richards, Rev. Rhys Jones, Penrhiwceiber: Mr W. Phillips, assist, overseer, Mountain Ash; Messrs. D. E. Davies, J. D. Morgan, F. J. Caldicott, Albert Watkins, Gwilym Williams, Mountain Ash; Phelps and J. Murphy, Mountain Ash; Morgan Charles, Morgan Watkins, David Rees, D. Rees Charles, R. H. Miles, James Berry, Wm. Jones, etc. An excellent table had been laid by the host and hostess, Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Miles. The following was the menu: — Soups, thick oxtail, clear; fish, boiled turbot and lobster sauce, and filletted sole and anchory sauce; joints, poultry, roast beer and horse-radish sauce; roast lamb and mint sauce; roast chicken and bread sauce; sweets, cabinet pudding, jellies, cremes and blancmange: cheese, biscuite, and coffee. The Chairman gave "The King." Mr. D. M. Richards then gave the re- sult of their efforts at the Registration Courts, pointing out that the Liberal ate had been greatly increased. Mr. Morgan Watkins proposed the health of the President, Mr. D. A. Thomas, M.P. Mr. Watkins observed that there were rumours of several can- didates for the next General Election. He did not think that Mr. Thomas had any cause to fear. (Applause.) Mr. D. A. Thomas, M.P., in rising to respond, was received with prolonged cheering. He expressed his warm appre- ciation of the preparatory work done by his agents in the Aberdare Valley, par- ticularly by Mr. D. M. Richards, who had done so much to foster and cement the good feeling that he was glad tc be- lieve existed between Liberals and Trades Unionists in the Merthyr Bor- cughs. That good feeling in the consti- tuency, he was happy to tell them, was fully reflected in the very cordial rela- tions that had always obtained between Mr. Keir Hardie and Himself since the former was first elected as his colleague, seven years ago. He had not been able to see his way to accept the very kind invitation of the Merthyr branch of the Independent Labour Party to become a member of that organisation, but he could not deny that he was in hearty sympathy with much of its pro- gramme, and in the House of Commons he generally found himself in the same lobby as the Independent Labour mem- bers. Few would question the sincerity of the members of the Independent Labour Party, or withhold a tribute of admiration to the zeal and earnestness with which their views were advanced— in strong contrast to the half-hearted and temporising tactics of the Government. He (Mr. Thomas) wished also to bear testimony to the excellent work done by the party at Westminister. He (lid not hesitate to say that to the I.L.P. was due whatever credit attached to the final fcrm of the Trades Disputes Act and to the amendments made to the Bill as in- troduced by the Attorney-GeneTalon be- half of the Government. He had many friends among the other or Lib.-Lab. group in the House of Commons, and he should be sorry to say anything that might wound their susceptibilities, but their influence, at Westminister was no greater than that of The So-called Welsh Party. The Education Bill, upon which a session had been wasted, was a half- hearted Bill. When the House of Lords rejected it. many Nonconfornvsts said, Thank Heaven." People naturally asked how was it that the Government had done so little. With regard to the Prime Minister, he (Mr. Thomas) had been one of his staunchest supporters. His speeches were democratic, bat his words were not translated into the legis- lation introduced in the House of Com- mons. When Sir Henry was leader of the Opposition, one of the thorns in his side was the Liberal Imperial League. Many of the members of the League were members of the present Cabinet, and he was afraid that Sir Henry was largely dominated by those members, who want- ed Lord Rosebery to be their head. In conclusion, Mr. Thomas said he hoped to represent thls constituency longer than any of his predecessors. (Applause ) He was not going to join the I L.P. He was going to continue a Radical and In- dividualist. However, if the. Labour Paity cared to have his co-operation, he would gladly give it even to the extent of opposing any Whig that might come to South Wales. He would ask in re- turn that the I.L P. would render their assistance to the Radicals to obtain re- ligious equality. (Applause.) Mr D. M. Richards next proposed "The Visitors," coupling it with the names of Mr. W. Phillips (assistant over- seer), Mountain Ash, and other gentle- men. Mr. W. Phillips, assistant overseer, Mr. Phelps, Mountain Ash, and Mr. Gwilym Williams, Mountain Ash, re- sponded. MOUNTAIN ASH A POWER. Mr. Jeremiah Murphy, in further re- sponding, said that Mountain Ash was at present a power to be dealt with in the Merthyr Boroughs. Mountain Ash had been ignored a good deal, but he fiamed them to take care. During the last General Election Mountain Ash had played the game honestly, and voted for two members. If everyone plumped for the same one, Merthyr Boroughs could only have one member. Let them choose the lesser of two evils. (Loud laughter.) He did not know whether, in saying that, he had been guilty of an Irishism, but he hoped that they would not blame him. He was born an Irishman. ((Renewed laughter.) Mountain Ash was united— the various Labour Groups and the Radicals. On the local Council the Labour Members worked together, but at Aberdare they were always at logger- heads. (Laughter.) Mr. D. A. Thomas then left to catch his train, and Mr. D. M. Richards occu- pied the chair. Several speeches on re- gistration work were given.

Children's Coughs Relieved at once by Veno's Lightning Cough Cure. Nothing would be safer, surer, and speedier than Veno's Lightning Cough Cure. Mr Henry J. Rolls, of The Grove Lodge, Malpas, Newport, Mon., writes:— I must tell you what a great blessing your Cough Cure has been to our little boy. He suffered for years with bron- chitis and a chronic cough, and I tried endless cough syrups, embrocations, and doctor's medicines in vain. At last I tried your great remedy, and noticed an improvement after two doses only, and one large bottle effected a radical cure. I may mention that it also cured him of a bad whooping cough, and I am of the opinion that Veno's Lightning Cough cure saved my boy's life. "■ Veno's Lightning Cough Cure is the purest, safest, and most reliable remedy extant for coughs and colds, bronchitis, asthma, catarrh, sore throat, hoarseness, old-age coughs, children's coughs, and all chest and lung troubles.

I.L.P. MR. TRAINER ON CHILD LABOUR. On Sunday afternoon, at the Park Gates, Mr. W. Trainer, who is in charge of the Clarion Van, gave an address, under the auspices of the "local branch of the I.L.P. Mr. W. Phillips presided. Mr Trainer, in the course of a vigorous ad- dress, referred to child labour in mines and factories. It was to the advantage of the capitalists to keep the school age and the labour age as low as possible in order that they might increase their wealth by the means of cheap juvenile labour. When the Act for the regula- tion of child labour in factories was in- tioduced into Parliament such men as Cobden and Bright manifested their sympathy with the capitalistic classes they represented by opposing the Act might and main. Mr. James Mardsley, the "Tory Democrat" as he was called, was in favour of bending ehildrell into the factories at a tender age because then their hands were more pliable to do the "piecing" which was allocated to juvenile hands. The speaker held that no child should leave school until he were 16 years of age. He should .stay there to learn the rudiments of useful citizenship. MR. TRAINER ATTACKS THE CHURCH LADS' BRIGADE. Speaking at the Square on Sunday evening, and dealing with militarism, Mr. Trainer remarked that they as Socialists were all agreed in their opposi- tion to militarism, but there was a sec- tion of them that was in favour of citi- zen forces, and held that every man should be taught to bear arms. He also thought that there was some sense in this suggestion, for if every man were com- pelled to prepare for war, then the mili- tary clamour of certain people would cease. Referring to the Club Lads' Bri- gade, the speaker said that churches were now-a-days turned into barracks for drilling little children in militar- ism. Earls and lords patted them on the back, and good men from the Church devoted their lives to training them. It was a good thing to bring the lads into the church, and bring them in touch with good people, but why drill them? Why place a gun in their hands? Why should little ones be taught that it was a good thing for them to be made food for p<wder? Where did they get their mili- tary instincts from ? From Parliament. People had no right to turn churches into drill yards to pollute the minds of little children. Mr. Trainer invited questions, and in reply to Mr. Tom Bowen he said that no man could be a Christian without being a Socialist. Of that he was quite cer- tain. Asked further if a man could be a Socialist and a Freethinker, he replied that a- Socialist could be either a Free- thinker or a Christian, inasmuch aa Socialism and Christianity were two different subjects, the one being economi- cal and the other theological. Mr. George Thomas asked the lecturer if he believed in defending one's country. Mr. Trainer answered in the affirmative. Mr. Thomae then asked. How can you defend a country without an army?" Mr. Trainer replied that this could not be done very well. But there was the probability that we would never be at- tacked. Besides, we had a. good navy. Mr. Thomas: Does not your argument against the army condemn the navy, which also fosters a military spirit?—Not necessarily. Mr. Trainer then explained that under Socialism an international police force would gradually take the place of both army and navy. All countries would be policed into general submission by gen- eral consent. Mr. J. Phillips asked the lecturer whether the application of political Socialism and the establishment of a Labour Government might not induce the army to go over to the aristocracy? Mr Trainer replied that the aristocracy would very soon get tired of maintain- ing the soldiers unless they had some profit out of them.

THE PROBLEM OF PAIN. Dear Sir,—In last week's ccLBàder" "W.J.E." asks "Is it consistent with a God of Love that we should need any hospitals?" I would recommend W.J.E." tc read a little bock called Anti-Nunquam (price 6d., to be obtained of all book- sellers). In it he will find the most com- plete reply to the above question. He, like myself,, may be fond of looking at these great questions from "the other fellow's" point of view. Why does a good God permit pain? There is no complete and final answer to that question, none that does not leave an insoluble residuum, but if we can see a, partial solution of this problem the presumption will be that to a higher wisdom than ours the whole would be clear. No average chess-player would be ashamed to confess his inability to un- derstand the meaning cf every move of a Lasker; no private in an army pretends to fathom each disposition of his com- manding officer: and, on the came grounds it is simply in accordance with reason that many of God's ways and dis- pensations should be past our finding out. Has it ever struck U W.J.E. n that where there is a faculty for feeling pleasure there must also be a faculty for feeling pain, that we could not possibly have an ear for music without having a corresponding perception of discords, that where there is a capacity for right choice, there must also be an equal capacity for wrong, or it would be no ■choice? There is nothing fanciful or ar- bitrary about it; it is in the nature of things, and can be no more set aside than the multiplication table. Pleasure and pain belong to each other, as the two sides of the same thing, viz., the faculty of sensation; we could not feel the one if we did not feel the other. No thoughtful man would wish that God had created him capable of agreeahle sen- sations only, f-. wish which, could it have been granted, would mean the most un- bearable monotony—the only alternative would be to create men stocks and stones, incapable of either kind of feel- ings. Who would care to pay such a price as this for exemption from pain, viz., to be deprived of all sensation? May we take it then that W.J.E.'s ques- tion, why God permits pain, is answered. But again, is pain always and under all circumstances an evil? Pain is an electric message to the brain, a warning that a law has been broken, a danger fiignal. Were it not for this wireless message from the, nerve to the brain, disease might do its terrible work before the victim knew there was any danger. There is a legend of a blacksmith who cursed the hot iron for burning him, and swore that he wished some power would make him proof against the pain of heat. In answer to his wish an evil spirit took away all sense of feeling. He seized the hot metal without a twinge of pain, but soon saw, to his dismay, that the flesh had been burnt to the bone: But God is a good God-and pain is e. token of His love. By it we are taught what to avoid, are induced to amend our ways in time, are called to our senses when we would transgress the order of the world. It is good for us that we cannot trans- gress without suffering; it is well that wrong-doing and punishment should be linked in an unbreakable chain, and no thinking man will deny that pain is an important factor in man's education, and is no argument against God's Fatherly Love. Let us also remember that a, great pro- portion of the pain and suffering of the world is curable, is inflicted by men and women upon themselves and upon each other through selfishness and ignorance, and that by the resulting misery from all these things we are slowly-very slowly- learning to do better and to emerge out of our ignorance and selfishness to, a higher and truer humanity, remember- ing always that U Man's inhumanity to man Makes countless millions inourn." W.J.E. talks of preaching charity and practising robbery by people who profess the, Christian doctrine. Too true, alas. Christ also called euch people hard names, but "W.J.E. knows that they are none of His," but belong to that class of whom St. James writes: Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are en- tered into the ears of the Lord."—Yours, etc., Cross-street. M. WATKINS. P.S.—Don't forget to read Anti-Nun- quam," from which I have copiously quoted in above letter.-M.W.

MORALITY WITHOUT GOD. Mr. Editor,—It is customary for occu- pants of orthodox pulpits, and believers in the inspiration of the Scriptures, find- ing that their baseless arguments have been vanquished by secular facts, and that they cannot resort to the horrors of the stake or the bitter lash of the sword, to illustrate their ferociousness towards Secularists by a. chorus of denunciation. I have to hand an example in the person of the Rev. M. Evans, Unitarian min- ister, who, I presume, according to the position he occupies, vacated the gloomy harbour of orthodoxy, and is quite as dubious about the truthfulness of the Scriptures as the men that he proclaimed had no God. Secularists believe that morality is the science of social duty, it can only be the product of social life. Alone on a desert island a man would r.ot have the jpportunity of being either moral or immoral. The solitaries cf the Thebaid do not afford us the highest type of ethics. The basis of morals is the rational nature of man, the object of morals is the benefit of the community, the sanction of morals is the authority of right as known by experience, and not God as claimed by Mr Evans. Among the general principles taught in the Bible and expounded by orthodoxy in this country is the theory that belief, not conduct, is the foundation of virtue, and that uncha-ritableness towards op- ponents is justifiable. One of the first. instructions which a parent should im- part to a child is never to impute bad motive's in matters of belief or non be- lief. No lesson is more valuable than this, none more calculated to render the child's lif^i happy and unsuspicious, and to make its influence in the world more tifeful an-I beneficial. The Bible per- mits just the opposite. According to Christian teachings, if a man does an act of kindness, we are not to accept it with gratitude simply as an act of kind- ness, but we are to judge from the mo- tives of his conduct. Did he perform the act from love of God, or did he do it only from respect for his fellow man? If the former, his services will go up as a sweet- smelling offering to Deity, if the latter he merely performed a splendid vice. The motive, not the act, is the thing to be considered. If men .-day, ravish, and destroy for the glory of God, the motive not only condones but consecrates the act. In the early history of Christianity the practice of lying for the good of the Church was not only allowed but con- sidered praiseworthy. To require, uni- versal belief in one particular faith, and to condemn to eternal perdition these who are unable to comply therewith are both immoral and revengeful. A book that teaches that "many are called but few are chosen," or in other words, that tho majority (especially Secularists) of our fellow creatures are to be cast into n burning lake, cannot assist to proniote) the happiness and good of mankind That practised falsehood under saintly show Deep malice to conceal, couched with revenge. —Milton. The Secularist generally reads history. and the frightful record of the Christian Church makes him indignant and sad, almost despairing. Secularists believe that men will never be truly virtuous be- cause a preposterous and illusive reward i-i offered them. any more than they have been deterred from evil by the fear of a remote hell, from which at the last gasp a panic-stricken spasm of faith will de- liver them. Human beings will never be intelligently good out of respect for doubtful authority. They need to be taught the solidarity of human interests, that a true morality is precarious, if not impossible, without mental enlight- enment, that the unverifiable must give way to the verifiable as the guide of life, that goodness means happiness in this world, and that they have no right to look for the more abiding city of the Christian dream.—I am, etc., G.L.

Taff and Cynon. MONTHLY MEETING AT MOUNTAIN ASH. The monthly meeting of the Taff and Cynon District of Miners was held on Tuesday morning, Mr. David Jones in the chair. The vice-chair was occupied by Mr. Enoch Williams. Others present included Aid. Enoch Morrell (member of Executive Counc'l), Mr. Peter Gardner (district treasurer), and Councillor J. Powell (district secretary). The cash received, including Parlia- mentary levies, amounted to JM80, repre- senting 10,130 members. The cash re- ceivers were Messrs. Thos. IJloyd (Navi- gation) and Thomas Morgan (Treliarris). The Secretary reported that the ar- langement of a price list for the 9 feet seam in Deep Duffryn Colliery would soon be completed. A dispute between the night and day hitchers in Deep Duffryn Colliery was also reported upon. This is being at- tended to, and there is every prospect of a satisfactory settlement. A meeting of the Executive Committee had been held the previous day, and the result of the meeting was announced to the delegates. It was reported that there were only 24 persons in arrears. This was considered eminently satis- factory, and the Executive had come to the conclusion to withdraw the notices which had been handed in on August 1st. There will therefore be no strike. It was unanimously decided to thank the ladies of Mountain Ash for the excel- lent help they had given to the Feder- ation in the crisis they had just passed through. The District Meeting ex- pressed the hope that no such steps would in future be necessary to induce men to join the ranks of the Federation. Mr. David Levis (Deep Duffryn) and Mr. Peter Gardner were appointed to attend the Conference of the Miners' Federation of Great Britain to be held at Southport on October 8th. The agenda was considered, and the representatives were g'ven instructions. A report was given by the Secretary as to the present state of levies for the current year. The lodge secretaries were asked to collect any arrears that were outstanding.
