A New League

A New League.—On Sunday, the 31st ult., Rev. W. D. P. Bliss, of Boston, delivered a lecture in the Y. M. C. A. Building, this city, on the subject of "Christian Socialism," claiming that economic questions are moral questions. The purpose of the lecture was shown specifically when he asked all who were interested to hand in their names for membership in the Union Reform League, a new national Socialist movement on the lines of applied Christianity. The Tribune's report says that "at the close of the address a large number promised their moral support to the league, and several joined the society."
