Abstract

The Workingmen and The Churches

May 21, 1885 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on relations of the workingmen to the churches. Researchers have limited their inquiry to New York City to find the relation of workingmen to churches. The alienation between the working classes and the churches in the city has gone to great lengths, but it is greatly exceeded by that in other cities, as Cincinnati, St. Louis and Chicago. It is far from being accurate to assert, as does the contemporary, that if it can prove that there is no great separation between churches and the lower classes in New York, the case is settled for the whole country.
