BISHOP JOHN l.. sPALDING.

Bishop John l. Spalding Of Peoria H. who
is announced as the special selection of the
President is not known personally TO Mr. Roose-
Welt. although there has long beel a bond OF
sympathy between them because OF the strongly
similar sentiments expressed in their writings,
notably the intense Annericanism of both Presi-
dent Roosevelt recently called the attention OF
a mutual friend TO the following passage IN
Bishop Spalding's later book. Religion Ag-
nosticism and Education:
All truth is orthodox, whether it be through rev:
elaton contributed BY the church or the result or
sciousIv or uHconsciously to give mankind freer

Commenting on the passage. Mr.. Roosevelt re-
marked that the mans broad humanitarianism
must almost exceed his ecclesiasticsr, and ex-
pressed a desire to meet him. II is understood
however that the suggestion Of Bishop Spald-

E E. Clark. of Cedar Rapids. Iowa. Grand
Chief of the Order of Railway Conductors. IS
the special representative of organized labor on
the commission, but his appointment is equally
as satisfactory to the mine operators as TO the
mine workers. The presidents Of all the great
operating companies have been brought INTO
close relations with him as railway officials in
the settlement of questions relating to the en-
ployment OF conductors, and they have learned
70 respect him. He is a representative or the
highest type of labor leaders-the type which
has made the orders of railway employees models
Of conservative and efficient labor organizations.
Mr.. Clark is native Of New-York and is forty
three years old. Before he was elected Grand
Chief of the Order OF Railway Conductors. in
1890 he was a passenger conductor on the no
Grande Western Railway. He possesses in
high degree those qualities Of initiative ana SELF
reliance which are developed among the active
railway workers In the United States. The
Order of Railway Conductors owes much Of its
present standing to his conservative and liberal
policy. He believes that strikes are bad Tor
both the employer and the workman and that
they should be obviated by mediation. arbitra-
tion and contracts between organized capital
and organized labor. IL the conductors on any
railway system have a grievance. Mr.. Clark
investigates it thoroughly before taking any
