The Manufacturers' Association of Canada has been meeting in Hamil- ton, and as one of the most porten- tous institutions of the day its pro- ceedings have been attracting wide attention, It was only an incidental reference which projected a most sertous de- bate. It was to the effect that the Sabbath had been encroached upon by the munition producers and to a very serious extent, Two views have been expressed upon the subject. One is that the work involved haste, that a great is- sue depended upon Sunday service, namely, the success or non-success of the Allies in the war. The other view is that the production of muni- tions has been quitkened by Sunday labor. The question has been con- sidered many a 'tine, and" the fon- e of 'the advocates of Sunday "Test is that there fs no advantage in working a man for seven days in the . week. He must have rest, have time for recuperation, and the machinery which he operates must have its idle spell. Both men and machinery do better execution as a consequence. In the manufacturers' meeting no very strong evidence was produced in favor of Sunday labor, and one gath- ers the impression that it is but a continuation of a very old fight. It has, as its reason to be, the greed that grows on men and blinds them to the sacred or religious side of the case. Evidently the minority of the Pres- byterian Church regard themselves as the custodians of the constitution, the good name and perhaps the as- sets of the Presbyterian Church in | poses of the United Church. this may not be accomplished with-| UNITED CHURCH (F CANADA. As a member of one of the church bodies that will be affected by the union on which the Presbyterian As- sembly has just voted so decidedly the editor of the Whig feels for those who are disturbed over their church relations. The good ¢hurchman has an affection for what he calls the essentials, in creed and polity, and he will not without some thought let these things go. There is a sacred- ness about them which he holds in the highest esteem. S80 sympathy is expressed for Rev. Dr. Campbell and the eighty odd members af the imbly who may be termed the great dissenters and who will have nothing to do with the proposed "United Church of Canada." There is less regard for the assump- tion that the Methodists were not brought up in the same religous at- mosphere as the Presbyterians, as ore debater put it. The meaning of this remark is not quite clear, and there is a touch of vanity about it which is not appreciated. There is something more in church membership which has been so long continued that one cannot bring himself to break away from it on any account; and in this connection the attitude, the persis- tency, the heroic isolation of Dr. Campbell can be measured. That is as far as one can go in admiration of his position. He offends when he puts all whb voted for union out of the Assembly, metaphorically speaking, and declares that if the dis- senters act with the unionists for the time being, in any way, it must be remembered that they are not com- mitting themselves to any illegality. The union will not be consummat- ed till 1918, and the different merging bodies will have perfected their plans for it. The result will be a coalesc- ing of the forces for aggressive work, especially in the great west, economic administration of the various funds, the better use of men in the sparsely settled fields, and the cultivation of a spirit of harmony and good will which is so compatible with the pur- out some friction. But it carbe en: dured in the interest of union. The day may come when perfect peace will prevail in all the divisions of the visible church, when Christians will be of one mind and heart in working for its welfare, but that will be about the time the millenium is due. EDITORIAL NOTES. Sir James Aiken has not seen a drunken man in Winnipeg since pro- hibition went into effect. That is a record that people can be proud of. Zhe vote of the Presbyterian As sembly, 406 to 88, should be regard- ed as emphatic enough fo settle the question of union. The minority seems to be implacable. That must be something of a flight of the Austrians when the Russians cannot keep up with them.
