Offices are. however, but following w
the suggestion made by the Postofiice
Department that separate and specific
appropriation for services be made for
the ten largest cities in the country
The House committee on postofIices has
just begun an important session for tho
consideration OF this matter, and il is
more than probable that tho suggestion
will be favorably acted upon Those
who have considered the matter be
lieve that great benefit would be reaped
by the people living in the smaller
cities, while 1t Is evident that the
affairs of the Offices in the larger cities
can be more properly managed.

have commenced an organized pulpit
crusade against the street railroad COM
panies for running their cars without
tenders to guard against fatal accidents,
Last Sunday they all preached sermons
calling on the corporations to do thus
much In the cause OF humanity.
The pulpit might be used for a
much less useful and commendable pur-
pose. No congregation is likely to he
divided in sentiment on the subject
Everybody must be In favor OF saving
human life.
When politics Is preached In a
church the congregation Is certain to
be divided in opinion. While some APP
prove the preachers sentiments. Others
dsapprove them, and dlssensions and
angry feelings among the people are the
result
Besides, while some ministers hold
forth in favor OF one party, others are
outspoken in favor Of another party
and we are left in doubt which OF tn,

Now, nobody can take the other side
in a question of saving human life
