i'Jf s* 3?OLIB AMD. Dally and Sufiaay, 'one month. OF '8 c'eS& cbntin&'d^mtll an explicit ordM dTsMftTSuanfee-an* riluatca^ 2/ ^.IgcjslveU for rea^rtf^es ar* piTftli +.*v^'/\_ TboEar. ,Apr.' EUgia*, acti'n.g as chairman of the xfejaref eom-mitte'e, has" carried Ms con tentio.n with the He'd Cross people in0 SK^ Francisco farther than We are able to follow. "We have -sympathized with his efforts to prevent the sale of Min neapolis flour at sacrifice prices and to some extent with hia complaint of the failure to distribute it liberally ac cording to the desire of the donors, but his argument that it is the business of such an institution as the Bed Cross to administer charity according to the direction of the charitable in all cases, and under all circumstances would de stroy every intelligent agency for char itable work. I must be presumed that such an organization as the Be Cross at San Francisco has some better con ception of the real needs of the situation there than charitably dis posed and generous people thousands of miles away. While the givers of relief funds and supplies may prescribe the manner in which thev wish to have their gifts bestowed, and while the dis tributing agencv may decline to accept such gifts unless permitted to exercise its best ludgment as to how the ehari shall be applied, it is carrying the claim of the right to dictate how one's gift shall be employed too far to ac cuse an institution like the Bed Cross of that kind of breach of trust which should land the officers of that society behind the bars. That is a bit of ex aggeration and extravagance of state ment to which the chairman of the committee is prone, and it is not likely that the people of this city will alto gether en^oy being placed in the atti tude of denouncing the head of the Bed Cross woik San Francisco as guilty of an offense calling for a prison sentence. No will they approve the suggestion that heieafter the Bed Cross is to be regarded as unworthy of con fidence For ourselves, at least, we re gret this outburst of intemperate lan guage and the mania for saying things which has carried the chairman of the relief committee beyond the bounds of prudence and good judgment on other occasions besides this one Ohio's new governor takes his mid day meal on a round stool at the 10-cent lunch counter. I is surmised that the governor is a candidate for another term. Another Heatwole Nightmare. In the ISTorthfleld "News of June 30, Mr. Heatwole assailed Senator Nelson for the immunity provision contained in the section establishing the bureau of coipoiations in the law creating the department of commerce and labor, of which law, as is well known, Mr. Nel son was the author. Mr. Nelson has only recently returned home and The Journal has interviewed him on the subiect and from that interview, as well as from other authentic sources, finds the facts to be as follows: When the bill creating the new de partment passed the senate it contained no provision for a bureau of corpora tions. The house amended the bill by providing for such a bureau, but only gave the commissioner, the head of the bureau, power and authority to make, under the direction and control of the secretary of commerce and labor, dili gent investigation into the organiza tion, conduct and management of the business of any corporation, point stock company or corporate combination en gaged in commerce among the several states and with foreign nations except ing common carriers subject to "an act to regulate commerce," approved *t~ A *IO Off -3 4.*- yon4-Un n/h irt^AH Feb_1. 4, 1887, and to. gathern sucl infor mation and data as will enable the president of the United States to make recommendations to congress for legis lation for the regulation of such com merce, and to report such data to the president from time to time as he shall require and the information so ob tained or as much thereof as the presi dent may direct shall be made public. Other changes and amendments in the bill were made by the house, and when the bill, with these amendments, came back to the senate th ey were all dis agreed to and the bill was referred to a conference committee. The senate members of this committee were Haorma, Nelson and Clay. While the bill was thus in conference, Mr. Nelson con ferred with the president in respect to the same, especially as to the house pro vision for a bureau of corporations. The president and Mr. Nelson both thought that the house provision conferred in sufficient power upon the commissioner. A the suggestion of Mr. Nelson the president requested Mr. Knox, who was then attorney general, to prepare a suitable amendment to give the commis sioner ampler power. Mr. Knox pre pared such an amendment and handed it to the president and the president handed the same to Mr. Nelson with the request that he secure its adoption by the conferees, which he did." All the senate conferees and the republican members of the house conferees were familiar with the true paternity of the amendment. This amendment is as fol lows: In order to accomplish the purposes declared in the foregoing part of this section, the said commissioner shall have and exercise the same power and authority in respect to corporations, joint-stock oompaniea and combinations subiect to the provisions hereof, as is conferred on the interstate commerce commission in said "act to regulate commerce" and the amendments there to in respect to common carriers so far as the same may be applicable, includ ing the right to subpena and compel the attendance and testimony of wit nesses and the production of documen tary evidence and to administer oaths.

The Journal is inclined to believe that Judge Humphrey, rather than Attorney General Knox, has been mistaken in this matter, and it is quite certain that, under the circumstances, Mr. Nelson was not blame, but that he acted in' the utmost good faith, in touch and in harmony with the president. is now said the czar dissolved the douma because of the discovery of a huge plot to come off in October. The most understandable thi ng about the dismissal of the douma is the anxiety of the czar to justify it. North Dakota and the Railroads. The Bismarck Tribune contends that The Journal has made a "gratui tous inference" in its comment on North Dakota as a pro-railroad state. This was made in connection with the speech of Chairman E A. Williams at the Jamestown convention, in which he declares that those who were antag onizing the railroads were enemies to the progress of the state. The Bismarck Tribune follows in the wake of General Williams, in calling attention to the great things the rail roads have done for North Dakota be cause the state has not been dominated by a "policy of antagonism." I is entirely true that railroad development has increased the development of North Dakota farming territory, but it is idle to say that the railroads have extended their lines out of any sentiment of friendship for the state and the peo ple. They built new lines because th ey wanted to hold the territqry and de velop i as feeding territory f-or their respective systems. Every other act of friendship on the part of the railroads has had its justification in bigger gross and net revenue for the roads. Any assignment of other motives by railroad officials or politicians is pure buncombe. The state owes the railroads nothing but fair treatment and the protection of the laws. The railroads owe the state a fair share of the taxes. They also owe the people of the state fair rates and adequate freight and pas senger service. Whether th ey dis charge these obligations fullv is a fair matter for discussion Tltose ^wj^o do not believe the railroad companies are doing their full duty ha^e a right to that opinion, and do not deserve to be called enemies of the state bf-cause thjy express such sentiments. Those who in dulge in such talk lay themselves open to suspicion of prejudice and bias in the otjier direction. A fair attitude toward the question is stated,by the Bismarck Tribune in the article referred to. I says: There is no question of discrimina tion in favor of the railroads, the other kahcL there should be no question of discrimination against them. They are a part of one business system as much as the farmer or the elevator man, or the merchant. They should obey wise laws and conform to sensible regulations and pay taxes in propor tion as other persons and interests pay taxesno less and no more. N one can quarrel with such a posi tion. The trouble is in difference of opinion as to "sensible regulations" and "fair taxes." The "machine" faction in North Dakota claims that the "insurgents" want to make unfair ex actions of the railroads the insurgents claim on the other hand that the pres ent machine is too lenient and suffers things to be run just as the railroads want. Each stands on a platform of fair play and no discrimination. The disagreement is over the concrete defi nition of those terms. The procreation editor of the Tribune should not be alarmed. N man ever died rich without leaving many rela tives behind. I is only the poor man who dies short of mourning kin. Zion's New Status. Whether there is much law there is certainly very little Zionism in Judge Landis' decision of the Dowie case. The judge appears to have viewed it as a business man or an umpire might, and to have worked out a solution based partly upon the law governing trust estates and partly upon the immediate necessities of the case. finds that Dowie never owned the property and never had the right to dispose of it since it came to him as a trust from the people who paid in money to Bowie's church, just as a Methodist or Congre gationalist puts money in the collection plate. has no bargain with the church creating a trust, but the trust is presumed and it is presumed in the case of Zion vs Dowie. finds that Vo liva was guilty of a breach of trust in assigning his power of attorney from Dowie to another, for "a purpose dis tinctly hostile to Dowie. Finally he finds that' Alexander Granger is unfit by reason of the oaths he has taken to administer a property. Having elimi nated all of the men who have hereto fore claimed aright to control Zion, he appoints a day when the inhabitants of Zion shall elect an overseer, Under the laws of the state of Illnois. Judge Landis swept away the mum mery of Zion. paid scant attention to the apostolic cloakings of Dowie, and went straight to thd^rbpe"^ question* as the main one.

The Canadian parliament has recently passed an act which, if we had had it in this country three months ago, would have saved the senate much worry. I is a law requiring the supreme court to' pass upon all questions submitted to it by the parliament. I grew out of the airy manner in which some mem bers of the court replied when asked to say whether the right to enact a Sunday law was vested in the provinces. The judges said in effect that the par liament should go ahead with its Sun day law and let the matter come up in ease afterwards. This is the course in America^ Congress passes laws, but it does not know until they have been thru the courts whether they are good or not. This uncertainty often tangles congress in complicated speculations as to whether the supreme court will hold this or that provision of a statute good. The senate a few weeks ago was up against the problem of broad or nar row court Teview and whether congress could prohibit the issuance of inter locutory decrees in lower courts. Mr. Bailey argued ve ry plausibly that the inferior courts were the creatures of congress and could be ordered to do or refrain from doing, in wisdom of con gress. Mr. Spooner argued just the opposite, but there was no way to de termine the matter in advance. Th Canadian parliament believes it has found a way in an act which requires the supreme court to decide things re ferred to it by parliament. The convenience of having advance information upon what is constitutional and what is not cannot be denied. Yet it is difficult to realize in a government whose three chief branches are co-or dinate. The American supreme court would not take any such orders from the congress, and it is doubtful whether the supreme court of Canada will. Courts do not go about loaded with opinions upon the cpnstitutionality of laws. They acquire them from time to time by the consideration of actual cases. Hypothetical cases can never have the same value as actual cases. N doubt a supreme court composed of Peter S. Grosscup and David J. Brewer 'Would be ready to give opinions in ad vance in fact, it is patent that con gress would always know their opin ions without even a hypothetical case, but most judges are more conservative. They demand to see the goods before appraising their value. That placid person, O'&rien, president of the American, association of baseball clubs, maintains that he will back his umpires until personally as sured that th ey are not giving fair and just decisions. Meanwhile, he will con sider all evidence that may affect their standing as "pure rot." Could any thing be more judicial! SOUTH CAROLINA IN '60 AND NOW Greenville News. The people of South Carolina are far better off today than In 1860. Then there was practically no diversification in in dustry. Agriculture consumed the ener gies of the people and formed almost the only basis of the state's wealth. Today millions of dollars are invested in manu facturing enterprises. The cotton mills and oil mills are flourishing. The phos phate industry is prosperous, and our farms are being cultivated just as suc cessfully and more extensively than in 1860. The energies at the people are well diversified and the distribution of wealth is more in accord with a democratic state. "FIXING" UP THE BACKYARD Nebraska State Journal. Justice Brewer says we have been a long time fixing up our front yard In this country, and he calls the present day movement against political and com mercial evils a belated attention to the backyards. His observation is a figur ative application of the literal opinion of an observing French visitor. Asked what impressed him most favorably in the ap pearance of this country he said, "Tour fr6nt yards." Asked what impresed him most unfavorably he considered a mo ment and replied, "Tour back yards." UNTANGLING TH E ATMOSPHERE Chicago Record-Herald.

"THE DOUBLE DOCTRINE OF THE CHURCH OF ROME.1'Under that rather startling title, Baroness von Zedt witz, who as Miss Caldwell of Washing ton, D. and Louisville, Ky, gave lib erally to the Catholic university at Washington, publishes a little book tell ing why she renounced the Roman faith The book has attracted much attention. The author says her renunciation is com plete, and her reason, as she gives it, is that she failed to find in the Roman church a means of perfecting character thru the aid of religion. This, she says, was due to a separation of morals from religion In the church. "What then," she asks, "was to be come of the moral code, if ecclesiastical and moral duty clashed? The first is law, the second habit, was the reply. The moral habit Is helpful doubtless to primi tive simpte folk, but it is dead and life less in itself, and often crushes the spirit. No great work was ever done by narrow moralists for with that rule of life, we neither grow not accomplish" In that quotation the author gives the essence of her reason for her change of faith. Fleming H. Rerell cttmpany, New York. THE PUZZLING PROBLEM OF PRAYER.Leander Chamberlain, presi dent of the Evangelical Alliance for the United States, under the title The True Doctrine of Prayer, offers a solution for what is to many a puzzling problem. His solution, however, is not In the form of a logical, philosophical treatise, but, as Rev. Dr. William R. Huntington says in a foreword, "in a logical succession of detached and semi-detached paragraphs, each one of which presents a truth." The author is in no wise "timid or apolo getic about the claim he makes for prayer." stoutly maintains that all real prayers are answered affirmatively. He reaches this conclusion easily enough thru his definition of "real prayer." The book is one well worthy of study.

MAGAZINES A Record of Effective Railway Rate, Regulation.Ethel Hutson, in The Reader,, for August, tells a story that in thesef days of railroad rate legislation is worthy of careful attention on the part of eyery good citizen. I is about railroad^ggn-j trol in Texas. Among other things she says: "Rebates have been effectually ^pre vented by the section of the law "f^lch levies a heavy fine upon the railroad- that gives one, but does not punish the ship per who receives it. This leaves the shipper free to testify no railroad is so foolish as to put itself forever at the mercy of a shipper by breaking the law once. Thus the laW, while apparently severe, Is a real protection to the rail roads." Geraldine Bonner, author of "Tomor row's Tangle," writes of "The Passing of the Argonaut's City," a city which she knew by heart and writes of with much charm. The leading piece of fiction in the number is "A Chariot of Love," by Mary Stewart Daggett. There is a chariot race in it, Romanesque in its excitement. The Pike's Peak Centennial.Pike's Peak, during the last hundred years, has, been the center about which the drama of the "Winning of the West" has been enacted, says the World's Work.

Politics in Hennepin Municipal ownership of all public utilities is to be made the keynote of the coming campaign by the Viking league, the active Norwegian republic an organization of the city. A large and enthusiastic meeting was held Thursday night at Bichmond halls, and strong municipal ownership resolutions, based on those passed at the recent republican county convention, were en thusiastically adopted. A part of the program was devoted to memorial serv ice for Thomas Lajord, who died re cently in Washington. The resolutions are as follows: Whereas, The republican party of Hen nepin county In th last convention duly adopted a platform which among other things include a plank In favor of mu nicipal ownership of public utilities, and Whereas, The largest and most pro gressive cities of our country, such as Chicago, New Tork, Cleveland and others, have taken steps whereby these results may be accomplished, or whereby the voters may at least have opportunity to express their opinion on the subject, and Whereas, Municipal ownership has proven economical and eminently suc cessful in the most enlightened and pro gressive countries of Europe, as well as In all American cities where it has been tried, our own waterworks being a con spicuous Illustration, showing that enor mous sums of money can thereby be saved to the public, and the service greatly improved ,now. therefore, be it Resolved, By the Viking leaue in meeting duly assembled, that we are heartily in favor of municipal ownership as enunciated in the last republican plat form and will do our utmost to attain the result therein advocated, firmly be lieving that public ownership of street railways, gas and electric plants, a tele phone service and other public utilities Is highly desirable and should be ac complished at the earliest possible date and be It further Resolved, That we earnestly utge all republican candidates for office to ad vocate the principles herein contended for during the coming campaign so that the Issue may in ,a measure be placed before the people at the next election, and we urge and request all Successful candidates for legislative offices, be itCHANGE city or state, to favor any ordinance or law which will give the voters of the city an opportunity to cast a ballot on this question.

Lake Harriet Pavilion "Denver has listened to Sousa, Creatore and Banda Rosa, but never until last night has a Denver audience listened to better music from a bandV says- the Denver Daily News in speak ing of Liberati 's Grand Military Band and Concert company, which begins a a engagement of four weeks at the Lake Harriet roof garden tomorrow after noon. The endorsement other cities-is hardly necessarv in heralding the com ing of Signor A. Liberati and his band, since the great cornet virtu6so and bandmaster is a familiar figure to local lovers of band music and he and his organization have been identified with many of the important musical events of the northwest. Liberati's last engagement here was as a special feature of the state fair of 1905, altho prior to that time he con tributed materially to the success of the old Minneapolis Exposition in its Eere almiest days and has often appeared as a cornet soloist with the old Danz organization. In all America there is no better known and more popular bandmaster than Signor A. Liberati. the same tokcu there is no band better known or more popular than Liberati's, especially in its home city of New York. With an absolutely clean record of thirty years of brilliant achievements it has a record unequaled for successful re sults based entirely on merit. For this season's tour, Signor Liber ati has added to his band of fiftr pieces five* vocal soloists, each one an artist of the highest order. There is Chevalier Albert Guille, for eight years supporting tenor with the divine Patti Miss Katharine Klarer, one of the beat prima dona sopranos cyer graduated from the Cincinnati Con servatory of Music Miss E. Wegner, formerly prima dona contralto with the Amberg Castle SquaTe Grand Opera company of New York Signor D. Pez zetti, formerly tenor of the Metropol itan Grand Opera company of New York citv, and Signor G. De Luchu formerly barytone of the Mascagm Grand O^era company. There are also manv instrumental soloists, not forgetting Signor Liberate and his marvelous cornet solos. All or these soloists will be heard in connec tion with the band concerts given each afternoon at 3:30, and each evening at 8:15 during the next four weeks at Lake Harriet.

There being 1,640 delegates in the convention, it is seen that, counting out only those counties where contests are admitted, Cummins has 6 4 votes more than a full majority, and a ma jority of 190 over the combined vote of Perkins and Eathbun. on organiza tion. But Perkins has instituted what Cum mins supporters call "fake" contests in Scott. Delaware, Audubon and Car roll, having 72 votes, and has "pro tested" Polk, Dallas, Dickinson, Lyon and Cherokee, with 121 more votes. S that, deducting all delegates either "contested" or "protested" by Per kins, Cummins would have but 693 votes on organization to 695 for Per kins and Eathbun. This is why the Cummins men say they will not tolerate recognition of all these "protests" and "contests!" asserting they were instituted for the* urpos of keeping Cummins from ob the nomination to which he i entitled by having a majority.
