Mr." -\V. E-imore Seal, secretary, of the
Paintfirs'i.and Decorators' Union: of this
city, ■■■ read a very, interesting paper, be
fore the Baptist, Ministers' Conference;
yesterday morning "on" "The Church:: and
tiie" .Wage-Earner."-;; -Some- statements
m'ade^ Mr.; Seal, who is; an experienced"
labor organizer,', brought ; about : an in- ;
teresting, discussion by: a > number '•■ of the
ministers: present.; . - - . . "
■Mr. / Seal is; the grandson; of Rev. Wil-.
liam. Taylor, during his lifetime an able
and honored Baptist preacher of Buck-;
ingham: county. He was presented :to
the conference by Dr.-J.-B. Hawthorne.
The essayist .said at the offset that he
had travelled" the- world over, had seen
the laboring man in all lands, and hav
ing closely studied his problems .for
years, thought himself prepared ; to;make
a strong ;and' accurate presentation of
his trials and struggles for , a. -livelihood.,
TPIE CHURCH WAS COOK;:",:
Speaking of the' feeling of the laboring
people. of Virginia and America "towards
the - Church. Mr. Seal deplored the lack
of confidence and affection on the part
of the one for the other. . It was: due, he
declared, to the coolness 'of .; the Church
towards" the^w'orkingman. ' The cry of
the breadwinner had been heard by the
Church, but she had turned her back and
closed- her ears, to the appeal. He con
trasted this state of affairs to the.con
ditions "existing in .Europe. There the
minister -and the wage-earner were co
laborers—the latter coming to the. former
for- help and -sympathy and not being
turned" away. ' Mr; Seal made the state
merit" that but . a small proportion of or
ganization, members in this city: attend
church; and said the reason ; for this was
that- the ministers did not sufficiently in
iterest: themselves in. the cause- of the
workingman • -i that the situation was
deplorable. and'"that his presence and
paper" were intended to stimulate the
churches into a better consideration of
the' matter. ' ~
".The 'pastors, or some of them, he said,
could, not afford to express themselves
for the laborer, as they.- were' supported
by capitalists— "those who sat on the
handsomest and best upholstered pcw r s in
tthe church"— and: he cited an instance in
which a minister, of New Tork had made
such a remark to him and his reply to it.
; MADE AN EARNEST APPEAL.
Mr. Seal closed, his paper by making a
most earnest appeal to the Baptist" min
isters of the' city -to'": take a decided stand
in the workingman's behalf, and lend the
workingman a hand towards better con
ditions of -living.' .' ■ •
. The paper .was given the . closest atten
tion. It was: evident; to all that Mr. Seal
was deeply in earnest.-
Dr. H. W. Battle," of Petersburg, sug
gested' that a discussion of Mr. Seal's
paper be held. Rev. B. Cabell Hening
made the opening talk. He declared that
the position of the Baptist ministers in
Richmond was- not understood by Mr.
Seal. He assured him that there was not
one minister in. town who was afraid to
say what he -wanted to, no matter who
sat on the front pew.
NO LACK -OF SYMPATHY.'.
Rev. M. Ashby -."Jones, ••warmly com
mended the earnestness of the. essayist
He said he believed the Church -oughr to
touch the lives of the workingmen. He
m J? , kneW the minis ters to be closely
identified with the interests of the labor
ing class. He denied that in. Richmond
hf e r-, U ' aS , a " r lack of sympathy; between'
the Church and the laborer, saving' that
the overwhelming majority of his ma?e
"embers at Leigh-Street church
whn^ ?? ce ° Pl % Mr - Jones deemed the
wholesale condemnation .of capital how
ever, as. entirely out of place t
liS ZThv'T sp " r ke fll0 »ff the same
imes set by, Rev. Messrs. Heninjr and
Jones. He said the labor or^nlzltS
expected too much, and that for iisWt
the enn V «^ **} P ° SSib ' e tO ™S
SSiSfSM^ himself with a -
Dr. Derieux closed the discussion, and
V^m Orne cff ered a resolution,
which was adopted, declaring the con
ference had heard witlv pleasure the
Paper of Mr. W. E. Seal on behalf of- Jhe
tS r - . Orß ,^ ni , zatio »s of Richmond, and
that it will be gratifying to us to have
other representatives of these' organiza
tions come before .us and present their
views at such times as may be most
convenient to- them'
