There is a good element Of merit
in biz now before the legislature
for fiat cent per mile passenger
rate. AT present about 90 per cent Of
the travel is on that rate and a very
slight increase in travel would bring
the passenger receipts up to the present
amount Ii is unques tionable a large
railroads Will fight the proposition as
they naturally do all attempts at inter-
ference with their business manage
ment. But interference lis sometimes
necessary for the public has interests
that must be guarded. However in
this case the proposed legislation
would result in gain to both the public
and the railroads. 4 cut in passenger
rates always results in increase of
travel The increase makes money for
the roads and the public is benefited
thru the stimulating and civilizing in
fIuences of travel. The legislature
should stand firm for this bill and
give the people of Iowa a two cent
passenger rate.

The night was hushed. and the peace
that falls before dawn was upon the
wet fiat lands. Somewhere in the sod
den grass a swamped cricket chirped;
from an outlying fiange of the village
a dogs howl rose mournfully; it was
answered by another far away and by
another and another. The sonorous
chorus rose above the village, died
away. and quiet fell again.
Helen sat by the window, no comfort
touching her heart. Tears coursed her
cheeks no longer. but her eyes were
wide and staring. and her lips parted
breathlessly, for the hush was broken
by the far clamor Of the courthouse
bell ringing in the night. 1t rang and

Looking For a Religion.

A party of Japanese, of their
wealthiest and most influential class
have arrived in Seattle, Washington,
on a tour of the United States, and
will visit the principal points in the
United States. They will inspect the
condition of the people in the rolling
mills and factories of all kinds, look
ing into the condition of the people,
examine the practical working of the
laws and ascertain If possible wheth-
er religion enters to any appreciable
extent into the actual daily life of
the people. One of the party, 4
graduate of Toxic university, said
that after most careful examination
absolutely unprejudiced and free
from preconceptions, the Japanese
had unanimously and unhesitatinglv
rejected the religion of the Europeans
as something which they did not
want and did not need and have come
70 America well impressed with the
york of our missionaries, to see how
religion affects every day life here.

Yorks distinguished orator. Both
halls at the Turner Grand opera house
were packed to the doors before the
parade. in which several bands and
marching clubs. including the Rock

ended. Mr.. Cochran was given a ire
mendOus ovation. He spoke for nearly
two hours on the tariff. which he de-
clared to be robbery of the masses.
and the tr.sts, which he held to be
fOstered by the republican party, pay
ing a handsome tribute to Congress
man N. J. Wade, who is a candidate
for reelection in the Second Iowa dis
trict. Mr. Cochran, when he consent
ed to take the stump. placed himself
at the disposal of the national com
mittee. with the single reservation that
he be permitted to- deliver one address
