Open Communion.
Bishop Cummins, of Kentucky, has writ
ten letter vindicating his own conduct
and that of the Dean of Canterbury in the
matter of their Communion in Presbyterian
Churches. He says: 81 deny most en-
phatically that the Dean Of Canterbury or
myself have violated the ecclesiastical order
of the Church of England, or OF the Protes-
tant Episcopal Church in this country, or
have been guilty of an act of open hostility
to discipline. There Is nothing in The
ecclesiastical order or discipline Of the
Church of England or Of the Protestant
Episcopal Church in this country forbidding
su IN set of inter-communion among chris
tian people who are one 10 faith and love,
one ia Christ, their greas head. As far as l
know, the liberal Episcopalians OF New
York rejoice in the action of the Dean OF
Cantebury. and thank God for 1t. When
the Episcopal Church of England and the
United States has been able to clear her
salf which may God IN His infinite mercy
soon grant, OF the deadly evil of rituaiism,
whose last development is revival OF the
confessional, then, and not till then, may
she become haven OF rest to manned sous
who would rejoice to see her the common
center and bond of organic unity to all Pro-
testant christendom.n

MONOPOLY SHADOWS.
The Railroads and Farmers A Striking
Agreement.

OoA' W A' OAoovSuVA TAAv0c ~ Vn0 <A1"
lantic for November nItable article on
railroads and farmers, from which the
following is extracted:
Three men meet in room in New
York. They are3not called kings, wear
no crowns, and bear no sceptres. They
merely represent, trunk lines of railway
from the Mississippi to New York.
Other points settled, one says:
"As to the grain rate; shall we
make it fifty from Chicago ?"
agreed; crops are heavy, and we
shall have enough to do"
Business finished, the three enjoy
sundry bottles of good wine. The daily
papers presently announce that "the
trunk lines have agreed upon a new
schedule of rates for freight, which is,
in effect, a trifing increase; on grain,
from forty-fve to fifty cents from Chi
cago to New York, with rates to other
points in the usual proportion" The
conversation was insignificant, the ill.,
crease trifling." But to the farmers
Of the Northwest it means that the will
Of three men has taken over thirty mil
lions from the cash value of their pro-
ducts for that year, and five hundred
millions from the actual value Of their
farms. The conversation is imaginary;
but the startling facts upon which it is
based are terribly real, as western farm
ers have learned. The few men who
control the great railway lines have it
in their power to strip Western agri-
culture Of its earnings-uot after the
manner of ancient highwaymen, by
high-handed defiance of society and law,
