A SPIRITUAL UNION.

There probably never will be universal church as
long Christians maintain freedom of opinion about
versions of Biblical intentions and ordinances. Reli-
gious organizations may indeed move toward such an
end, but there will be practical physical union
of the denominations. In time few Of the present
divergent branches of the church militant may join
forces for instance the North and South divisions of
Methodism and Presbyteranism. But that is reunion
rather than union.
While physical concentration Is improbability,
there is spiritual union which is being more and
more manifest in the work Of the denominations. The
common goal toward which Christian is pressing
has brought realization of the good that may be
accomplished by striving together instead of wasting
energy in interdenomnational strife.
One Of the chief methods adopted to bring about
mutual effort is that used in teaching the young. The
great International SundaySchool Association is in
session in Denver and will prepare for the further
perpetuaion Of the work being done through its
TEN of instruction 1t is reported that nearly 5000
delegates in attendance, most of the Christian
denominations being represented
1t would be difficult to estimate the amount of good
which has been accomplished through the series of
international lessons. Every Sunday, IN thousands
Of schools millions Of children receiving instruc
ton concerning the subject. With Biblical
texts chosen by the committee Of the association the
teaching of the word becomes work In
which denomnationalism is forgotten.
There must be vital spiritual conmIngling when
sects can continue to the text simultaneous
ly in the manner which has prevailed during the life
of the association. The sagacity Of the who
have selected the lessons is perhaps responsible for
the success of the movement. The spirit which
has characterized the acceptance Of the committees
recommendations by the churches Is sign of the
times which makes for better feeling between the
Having primarily to do with the young. the les
sons do. 1t is fitting that the denominations should
unite in the effort to improve conditions Nothing
else could be expected. If the strife among the rival
religious organizations is to cease, peace will be Sc
cured through the young. The international lesson
topics have done much toward bringing this result
about by ignoring docinal divisions and emphasizing
the great purpose Of region-to comfort the sorrow
ing and to for the widows and orphans in their
afiiction.

A RAILROAD IMPROVEMENT.

Western railroads have passed through transition
period in their development which leaves them In
position Of industrial power and independence never
before reached. The present prosperity of the sys-
TENS west of st. Louis would have been remarkable
ten or twenty years ago.
Last years drought was one Of the severest ever
known in the Lower Missouri Valley and the South
west In Texas much of the cotton crop was de-
stroyed by food and drought In Texas, Oklahoma
Arkansas Kansas. Nebraska and Missouri the corn
yield was below that of any year for a long time.
Production at minimum, except in the single
crop Of wheat
Yet every railroad entering this territory showed
increased earnings. Though the crops poor
freight moved with a constancy which made the car
famine actual hindrance to business. Traffic was
and is heavy. No railroad has declared decreased
dividends. No receivers have been appointed for any
railroad between St Louis and the Rocky Mountains
OF course this is a development which was ex-
pected. The railroads themselves responsible for
much of the present business which they are enjoy
ing AS the pioneers In opening up countries to
settlement they have established industries which are
now returning them the proverbal bread upon the
waters
A failure of one crop cannot seriously cripple any
railroad property in the territory adjacent ST. Louis
Diversified industries and crops have helped to create
steady supply Of freight which only general stag
nation of business diminish The increase in the
length of railroad lines and the different sorts of ter
ritory through which they pass are a practical in
surance against loss.
Under present conditions. failure crops in one
territory is Offset by favorable production on another
part of the system. Manufacturing mineral and live
stock traffic Is not affected by adverse agricultural
conditions excepting in the long Last year. the
drought sent thousands Of cattle to the markets The
loss to the railroads will be felt this year than
last However the crops this year will make up the
deficit.
OF course these conditions win be improved and
made permanent as the country grows
older. The increase in population makes necessary
diversified production. The railroads will profit there

BRREsFoRps WARNING TO ENGLAND.

There is something decidedly startling in Rear Ad-
miral Lord Charles Beresfords distinct announce
ment In the House of Commons to the effect that the
British admiralty system is rotten and that there is
a general want Of efficiency in the British navy.
Remembering that Great Britan's imperial eI-
isence depends upon her formidable sea power, it is
difficult to believe that such conditions would be al
lowed to develop One would think that the most
jealous national eolicitude would be increasingly
manifested to the ability Of the navy to cope with
any and all opposing enemies.
Yet Lord Beresford, acknowledged expert, de.
clares that the British naval is inadequate
that the engineer staff is thousands of short,
and that armament, both the United States and
France possess superior guns
Undoubtedly there must be justification in fact for
these amazing assertions Il is well to keep In mind,
however the truth that the English have wise habit
pointing deficiencies while there is ample time
to remedy them. They have never been prone to
blind themselves to actual conditions living in false
security until the time Of ruin. Lord Beresfords
warming perhaps Is another illustration of this ma
tfonal characteristic.
