Tuesday that could easily have proven
serious. He was driving west on the
state road when team came up from
the rear in such close proximity as to
run the tongue of the vehicle into one
of the rear wheels of Wills buggy,
breaking one of the spokes. This
frightened Mr.. Persons team, and as
there was also a rig ahead of him. they
whirled to one side, upsetting the bug
gy and throwing Will to the ground.
He held the lines for moment until
his own safety demanded that he let
loose, when they caught on his feet
and he was dragged along a smooth
wire fence for two or three rods when
the lines became untangled and the
team made rapid pace for home. VIII

RELIGION OF THE FUTURE.
President w w. Harper, in recent
address at Chicago on THE Religion of
the Future said: ut will be simple. 1t
must be reasonable. 1t must stand the
Jest of investigation. 1t must make no
iaise and pretentious claims. 1t must
De a religion of liberation. 1t must be
characterized by idealism. or the artis-
tic soul can not endure it. 1t must be

pablo of furnishing comfort in time of
trouble. for this is what art and science
can not do and this, after all, is the
greatest demand of the human soul.
The religion of Jesus answers all these
tests
KIsER'S PROFESSORS OPINION.
Professor Benjamin E. Triggonsby,
the well-known head of the Gossling's
Point CndianaJ University, In a recent
lecture declared that he considered the
Lords Prayer a poor piece of work
from literary standpoint and degrad-
ing in its effect upon the human mind.
1t robs the Individual of all respon-
sibility, the professor said, and leaves
him in the attitude of pagan wor-,

power over all his actions and to be
capable of fixing his fate. THY will be
done is horrible thing to say in pray
err. 1t is equivalent to singing oh. to
be nothing, nothing. 1t destroys the
idea that man is free agent, with the
inherent power to be good or bad. useful
or useless. We must rise up against
such teachings
And then" the professor went on
warming up to his subject there is
that appeal, Give us this day our daily
bread In the first place 1t is tautologi-
cal. and. secondly. it encourages people
to become improvident. How many
tramps who infest our land go about
from day to day saying. Give us this,
day our daily bread?' If the Lord will
give ls our daily bread. why keep on
working for 1t? Let US look at these
things in a sensible way. The hymns
they sing in the churches and the pray
ers they repeat there may be all right
for children but the men of today
ought to have outgrown them. sup

PROSPERITY AND RELIGION.
philadelphia Record

Prosperity is regarded as so desirable
that political campaigns have been
fought and Won on promise of in
creased prosperity. But prosperity
seems to have its drawbacks when con-
sidered from the church going point of
View. In New York city during the
month of July the Protestant churches
We're practically deserted, the entire at
tendance at all of them not exceeding
1000 on any Sunday. The explanation
offered for this scarcity of church. goers
is that the Astounding prosperity has
permitted the church going population
to so to seaside or country resorts, and
that even those who are not able to take
an extended vacation manage to spend
Sundays out of town. The prosperity
that empties the uptown churches dur
ing the hot season could we'll afford to
support increased missionary effort
among those who do not leave town at
all in the hot weather. Viewed in this
light. prosperity should Increase rather
than decrease church going. 1t is to be
that has emptied the New York church
pews. Prosperity that was more
thoughtful of those who need prosperity
might have produced more encouraging
results so far as summer church-going
is concerned.

NEW HOSPITAL
FOR TAZEWELL
Shall We Have It2-A
Plan to Secure 1t.

A movement has been set on
foot by DR.. Gillespie to enlarge his
hospital on Main Street, the success
OF which will depend upon the
amount of substantial support
given by the public.
It may be recalled by our readers
that the News has frequently call.
attention to the need of well
equipped institution of this
kind, and urged its establishment.
AS time goes on the need of such
an institution becomes mo re ap>
parent and urgent. There have
been several cases of extreme and
prolonged sickness in town within
the past year or so, which should
have had the advantages Of such
care and treatment as could have
and would have been possible only
in a well regulated hospital.
We understand that DIR. Gillespie
mas laid a proposition before the
town council looking to an appro.
priation by the town of a small
appropriation to this object,
and a like proposition will be, or
has been made, to the Board of
Supervisors of The county These
propositions will, we suppose, have
to be submitted to a vote of the
people.
AS an additional help, we pro-
pose, if the hospital shall be built,
that each church in town appro-
proprlate $4,000 per year, for the
support of cot IN the institution,
said cot to he for the use of mem>
bers Of the respective churches
first, and in the absence of such
applicants, then, for the use of any
other applicant as the authorities
of the hospital may have on hand.
Such system of benevolence as
this will be real christian work and
GO far towards alternating suffer-
ing.
We will have an opportunity to
say more on this subject, as we un-
derstand proposition will be cub
mltted TO the town soon, to vote
for or against the appropriation.

Swanson and The Machine.

Just as surely as the Swanson
faction wins in the gubernatoriaI
fight now on, will Senator Thomas
Martin wln. IL Sena tor Martin
succeeds in electing Mr.. Swanson
governor, he will also succeed in
his opposition to constitution al
revision. Senator Martin has sue
ceeded in having Legislature fav.
orable to himself elected once. He
would be able to do it again were
he to win in Mr.. Swanson's
candidacy. BY having such a
Legislature chosen il would be pos
sible for him to control the man
ner in which the laws ordered by
the Constitutional Convention are
framed. viii the people give the
machine the power TO do this
thingf Az the new constitution
will almost undoubtedly reduce
the number of offices in tho State,
the Office holder as rule is n
Martin man. This is true because
Mr. Martin was opposed to the
revision. Being openly espoused
by the junior Senator, Mr.. Swan
son is the candidate wherever the
Office holders may be found gath
cred together. And where il is not
Swanson with this class it is Ech-
OILS which for the most part ia Roa
noke, at least, is one and the same
thing. If this is not true, why is
it that where ever Mr.. Montague
seems strongest, the remainder of
the talk is mostly Echolsl Why
is it that nine out of ten oflicehol-
ders who are not Swanson men are
working for EcholsP Is it not
natural to suppose that if this were
not the truth, few of them would
not be for Montague? The only
other explanation is that the
officeholder is unalterably opposed
to anything approaching the form
of n peoples candidate, and this
class knows which side of it's bread
enjoys the butter, 1t may be set
down and contemplated; as we
have said which is that Senator
Martin has sounded the alarm
through Mr.. Swanson and the boy
are falling into line.-Roanoke
