The Union Pacific Robbers.

In this Issue will be noted an arti-
Gle from the River Press concerning
the disappearance from Harlem OF
Loney and Bob Curry, suspected OF
completely in the robbery OF the
Union Pacific railroad In June OF last
year.
Now that the fact has become
known that suspicion is directed to-
ward these men. some facts which d.
rectly concern Fergus county people
may be published. A Pinkerton de-
tectlve connected with the case was
In Lewistown about Christmas and
was accompanied to Gilt Edge by
Sheriff Shaw, where the fact was a
certained that Loney and Curry had
been In Gilt Edge shortly before the
robbery occurred and had left there
by private conveyance for Rocky
Point In time to have reached the
scene of the robbery by the date II
occurred. The Curry boys had al.
ready attempted to pass some OF the
unsigned notes of the Portland bank
and the detective said that six men
were engaged on the case. Sheriff
Shaw is very much surprised that
the men should have been permitted
TO leave Harlem.
Yesterday morning the sheriff re.
ceived from the Union Pacific officials
n circular giving a description Of the
men and renewing the reward OF 3d.
600 each which was offered for the
robbers last summer-dead or alive.

Bondsmen viii Stand Suit.

In the matter Of the adjustment OF
the differences between the school
trustees and the bondsmen of Con-
tractor Sheridan, and In reply to the
offer OF compromise served upon the
bondsmen by the trustees, which ap.
peared In these columns last week,
one of the bondsmen waited upon the
clerk last Saturday. He stated thatin
view of the fact that at a previous
meeting OF the board and bondsmen
the latter had inquired whether the
board was willing to settle for an
amount less than that demanded
and the board failed to accept such
proposition, after which the con.
tractor randered a bill to the trus.
tees for certain extras, additional
work, damages, etc., and at the same
time warned the bondsmen to make
no settlement on his behalf, the
bondsmen had secured an opinion
from a prominent attorney OF the
state on the subject, which was to
the effect that they should make no
settlement whatever, not being called
upon to do SO. the hondsmen did not,
therefore, at this time feel themselves
obligated to make payment and
would await adjudication in the
courts.

Is Higher Education Too Free ?

The question is frequently asked
whether the people are not getting too
much education. 1t is not denied that
there should be widespread intelligence,
but 1t is often intimated that possibly
there may be such a thing as over
education for the great mass OF the
people. A well stored brain is some
thing with which, 1t would seem, no
fault could be found. and certainly, in
an age when knowledge, thought and
reason are of pre-emnentt power,
II In hazardous to say that obstacles
should be placed in the path OF those
who thirst for learning and are eager
to take advantage of the best facilities
for acquiring an education.
One has said that an education has
become the cheapest OF our luxuries.
instruction in the elementary branches
and that OF an intermediate character
is at present almost wholly gratutous.
and In many parts OF the United States
collegiate and university edu-
cation may be had practically for
the asking. Institutions have sprung
up all over the land. many OF
them founded through the efforts OF re-
ligious denominations. the purpose Of
which is to make 1t possible for every
young man or young woman to gain
ha a.
reasonable cost. Assistance Is given In
the form OF scholarships. and there Is
hardly an Institution In the country. not
receiving state support, which is not
endowed more or less handsomely with
this means OF helping worthy aspirants
who have not the means with which
10 obtain the education they desire.
But the time has come when, Il is
said, some reform Is demanded in the
bestowai % these scholarships and other
kinds OF beneficiary aid to students

the subject In hls inaugural address.
and the heads OF other Institutions have

II is claimed that a demoraliEing COM
petition FOR students has set in between
colleges which offer tuition. board. lodS-

stances. In New England the scholar

management OF trust in the business
world every day. IL applied to this prob
lem OF restricting competition between
struggling churches and establishing Of
fetal cooperation between the great
missionary boards, would strengthen
hundreds Of feeble churches. encourage
thousands Of struggling ministers. and
in the end save, in diminished expendi-
ture and increased efficiency, millions
of dollars"
In line with this suggestion of going
at religious work in a practical way
and taking hints from experiences in
the commercial life of today, President
Hyde told the conference of plan of
federation which has been in successful
operation in certain parts of Maine for
about ten years. He described this
scheme as religious trust" of five
denominations for reducing competition.
A result of this trust" he said, was a
quickening OF religious interest, and 1t
had prevented denominations from
scrambling for converts, by encourag-
ing Christians to Join churches prom
Using the greatest usefulness in the COM
munity. He said that one church had
been built from the contributions OF the
members OF the trust" and that the
combination operated to regulate the
number Of churches to the population.
The formation of such a religious trust
might entail some sacrifice on the part
of the more devout followers Of Christ
who are welded to creed details. but 1t
can hardly be doubted that the larger
results would be OF greater Importance
than those reached by ill-directed IN.
dependent denominational effort. There
is no question that earnest men are ur-
gently asking for a common ground
upon which all may labor for common
end. 1t is practical effort to promote
Christianity, a movement for church
unity, a union for doing good, a trust
in the best sense of the word. This
tendency has made itself felt In organ
lied charity and philanthropy. In the
country districts it has become evident
that religious effort is being wasted,
that energies have been scattered, par
ishes kept poor and the total Of good
done not what 1t ought to have been.
There is a realization of the fact that
competition" between weak churches,
the majority Of which are not self-sup-
porting. may be regulated 10 the adj
vantage both OF the devout and of the
cause OF Christianity upon which they
agree so much depends. This is a COM
bination' against which there viii be
no cutlery and for which the thoughtful
forces in the religious world are work.

The New York "World" Sums

The question of what is read and who

Perhaps the most amusing contribution
to the subject has unintentionally been
furnished by a recent editorial in the
New York World. The writer processes

Probably travelling men do not read in
the Broadway cars, for example-dan-
ger to life and limb is too imminent and
the journey too exciting. But IL the
writer had been fortunate enough TO
get out of New York last summer he
would have encountered on the train
hundreds of the brothers OF the road
laughing over David Harum" or deep
in the adventures OF Richard Carvei.
Has lawyer or doctor any leisure
for reading other than professional
books?" he inquiries. An extended ac-
quaintance with the overworked in
these professions would reveal the fact
that their favorite way Of rest Is ire
taxing over book" and that as a class
they are among the largest buyers Of
the popular romances OF adventure. for
the simple reason that they are thereby
furnished with a complete change OF air.

worse Is conceivable. That anarchy
would follow the withdrawal Of the
American troops is inevitable.
But that the Filipinos are utterly in
capable OF advancement; that they can
not be educated up to the point where
they can be trusted intelligently and
honestly to administer their local gov
ernments. contradicts the opinions ex-
pressed by all the intelligent observers
who have given the situation in the
Philippines personal investigation. 1t
is the uniform testimony that they are
an intelligent, initiative race, with as
pirations for better things than they
have yet received out Of life, and that
when their confidence Is once won
they are tractable, and by habit peace
full and orderly. This is certainly ma
terial for ultimate good citizenship.
As a contrast TO the maze Of contra
dictory Democratic opinions on the SUBJ
ject, the Republican position stands out
clearly as the only possible one for the
country to assume with honor to itself.
with due regard to its obligations as a
civilized power upon which responsible
ties have been thrust, and with honest
care for the welfare of the Filipinos
themselves, as well as for the interests
Of the people Of the United States.
