Objectionable Literature.

Of the Objectionable literature the
greatest protest has commonly been
directed toward the cheaply covered
novel and the detective story, notwith-
standing that much of the best literature
Of the day is-and all of it ought to
be-printed in cheap paper binding,
that the multitude may have it.
But the term "dime novel" and
yellow cover" have done much to
prejudice people against anything put
up at popular prices, in a form per-
hitting all to have it. This prejudice
has been promoted by the large eastern
publishers who add ten cents to the
cost of covers and a dollar and forty
cents to the price of the book. It is
the prejudice of commercSalism.
Not all cheap books should be read
nor should many of the high priced
ones. The detective story has many
objections it has one redeeming
feature in that it teaches that crimes,
nomatter how we'll hidden, will be found
out and the criminal, no matter how
shrewd will be captured. This feature
of the detective story goes far in re-
deeming this class of stories.
The class that to the News is most
Objectionable is that which places the
criminal in the cannot-be-caught class.
In these there are all the Objectionable
features and not redeeming one.
In this class are those of Raffles
the Amateur Craftsman, who always
escapes detection and profits by every
move. It is surprising tnat this class
of stories should be published in the
great dailies. 1t would seem that there
is an abundance of good literature at
hand without placing this stuff before
the youth of the land. Every person
receiving papers publishing auch stories
should write the publisher a letter of
protest. It would cure the evil.

The Railway Question.

The question of whether further
power should be given the interstate
commission, hinges mainly upon the
question of whether the railways now
do the right thing by the public. There
is an opinion upon the part of many
shippers that they do not. A suspicion
to that effect is almost universal. And
those who have no opinion of their own
support President Roosevelt in his posi-
ton in the rdaster-support him, we
may say, to such an extent that they
are likely, in the absence of action in
the matter by congress, to insist upon
his reelection in 1908. But to get back
to the subject-the leading railway
presidents-of whom President Stick
ney of the Great Western is a notable
exception-have gone before the COM
mittee of inquiry and insisted that an
enlargement of power in the hands of
the interstate commission is unneces-
sary for the reason-it is the last one
they give-that if the commission would
enforce the power they now have, every
thing would be right. President Elliott
of the Northern Pacific copied after all
who had been before him at the inquiry
in this assertion the other day, and the

Christian Church Notes.

Mr.. H. F. Barstow of our city, who
is corresponding secretary of the Wis
consin Christian Missionary Association,
has made three trips recently to Grand
Rapids in the interest of the associ-
alton, tells us that a new church of
Christ was organized there last Sun
day with forty-fve charter members.
The meeting which resulted in the
organization lasted seven weeks.
An invitation was extended to the
annual convention of the church, to be
held September 1922, and that city be-
ing centrally located was accepted.

ures. It is an American scheme and
the American railroads are to enter into
it with all possible promptness. The
following news item tells the story:
Pittsburg, Pa, May II. For the
edifcation of 300 delegates of the
International Railway congress and :
as many special guests, George
Westinghouse caused a railroad
collision yesterday afternoon at the
interworks of the railroad which he
owns, and showed how easy it was
to do it all without damage.
A train composed of fifty new
steel cars was made up, and to it
was attached an ordinary locomo-
tive. The train was then cut into
three pieces, two Of which were
allowed to stand on an idle track.
The third portion, to which the
engine was attached, then moved
down the track distance of about
two miles, and rushed back at a
speed of forty miles an hour.
It crashed into the second section
and the latter bumped into the first.
Instead Of the cars piling up on
the tracks in twisted mass, there
was just culver and then the
three sections, which had been
automatically reunited, settled
down as if nothing had happened.
All the cars were equipped with
what is known as the friction
draft gear" which absorbs strains.
If the above is true exposition, and
there is no reaon to doubt it, travelling
upon American railways is to become
safe to the greatest possible extent
and the American railway laggards are
to finally have credit for solving the
problem with which other people have
been so seriously puzzled.

Improved RailroadiuC.

America has been known the world
over as being among the last to apply
safety methods to railroading. Our rail-
roads have killed and injured more
people than those of any other country
and the great companies have shown
little or no concern where expense has
been an item. To all this there has
been but one redeeming feature-the

According to the best information
from Washington, the president has
decided to call special session of con-
gress to consider the matter of giving
the interstate commerce commission
further powers in controlling railway
rates. And we wonder if he will have
as effective a scheme to secure action
as was used by La Toilette in Madison.
