Berlin. Feb. 25.-Dr. Harnack. the fore

German Oriental society, which was an
outcome of the emDeror's attending Pro
fessor Delitschs lecture on the Babylon

1T is a personal confession OF the en-
peror's faith and Is in no way COM

served.
While agreeing with the emperor that
religion needs forms. DR.. Harnack differs
from his views in regard to the revelation
of the divinity of Christ. and contends
that otestantism recognizes the reve-

with two kinds of revelation running
parallel with each other. as the emperor
assumes. Religious conceptions of history
must be uniform and any judgment con-
fusing Christ with other masters must be
mula, divinity of Christ" the doctor
maintains. must be questioned. Christ
never used it, nor did the primitive
church without qualifications, speaking
always of divinity and humanity. Divine
humanity is therefore the preferable tor
Lord and Savior but he never revealed
the secret Of his relation to his Father
Even the formula. divine humanity in
Christ. is therefore open TO objection. as

be penetrated

tons and Catholics also will join in a
simple recognition of Christ as Lord and
a determination to do his will.

cludes its plans about opening up the

PARLIAMENT USE MODERATION

London, Feb. 25-The Irish leader,
John Redmond, in the house of COM
mons today moved an amendment to
the address in reply to the speech
from the throne on the subject of the
Irish land question. Mr.. Redmond
speech was most conciliatory. He
said the amendment was not intended
as a hostile demonstration against the
government, but as a friendly warn
ing" to the ministers that he and his
friends believed the government was
engaged in framing a great measure
of justice and appeasement for Ire
land which, in the words of the kings
speech, would complete the abolition
Of the dual ownership of land"
All he wanted was an assurance from
the chief secretary for Ireland that
the government was engaged in an
honest attempt to solve the problem
on the lines suggested by the report
of the recent land conference which,
the speaker added, offered an unex-
ampled opportunity to end the agra
rian troubles and conflicts between
classes in Ireland
Mr.. Redmond pointed out that the
compromise proposed in the conference
report was impossible without state
aid and warned the government that

Lake q .Subur ban Road.
A. V. Taylor, attorney for the Salt
Lake & Suburban railroad has re-
turned from the east, where he went
some weeks ago to complete the final
arrangements for the construction of
the line. All the financial details are
now complete and the company is
waiting for the contractors who are
bidding on the work. Mr.. Taylor was
much pleased with the success of his
work in the east. He said that the
maps and plans were so complete that
absolutely no difficulty was expert
enced along this line, as is often the
case.
THE profles were so thorough that
the contractors could see every detail
of elevation, topography, etc. at a
glance, said Mr.. Taylor yesterday.
THESE surveys were important, as
everything depended upon their accu-
racy, as imperfeetions are liable to
provoke delay and annoyance. am
pleased TO say though that everything
proved itself In the drawings
The credit for this part of the work
belongs to Engineer Guy Sterling who
had the work in charge. Mr.. TAYLOR
said that the work on the construc-
ton would begin just as soon as the
weather becomes settled. This NAV

course, soft ground is as bad as frozen
ground 1t is impossible to lay track
under either condition. The work will
all be done by the contractors. They
bid on all the material and work. We
may nave some trouble getting the
cars and the steel fixtures outside of
the rails.
We will have no trouble getting the
rails. The railroads are all putting in
seventy-flve to eighty pound rails now
and this leaves plenty of sixty-five
and seventy pound steel on the market.
There are forty miles of road to COM
plete, and we shall start the work as
soon as the season opens whether the
contractors are ready or not. We had
no trouble floating the bonds. We nut
