After Reyival-What?

The remarkable religious movement
which not long since arose in the West
like a little cloud no bigger than 4
mans hand, is apparently spreading
throughout Christendom. 1t has al
ready assumed proportions which com
mand attention from all quarters and
has won for it general recognition as
"the revival" Every genuine Chris
tan, at least. will be on the watch to
make the utmost of its best features
and the least Of its blemishes. 1t is
alike impossible that the latter can be
essentially divine, or that the former
can be exclusively human.
Here, as in all Christian salvation"
It is imperative that there should be
the distinct recognition Of cooperation.
For it is always true that God can no
more save man without himself than
man can save himself without GOD.
This principle, however, compels US not
only to look with reverence for the
Divine element in present events, but
to consider carefully human issues in
the future. Waves of strong emotion,
be they ever so potent for good, cannot
roll on without cessation. There is an
ebb as we'll as flow to every tide.
1t is none too soon, therefore, to ask
and answer such questions as these:
Whittier is this movement leading us!
What will be left when its emotional
force is spent? Will it prove rerita-
BILE Nile in its fruit-bearing deposits,
or will it ebb away into Sahara-like
sterility? All evangelical Christians
doubtless hope that the utmost of the
highest will abide. Yet is there ample
room for most serious thought rs to
how this more or less transient i'm
pulse may not only be translated into
something permanent but become the
starting-point Of a definitely higher
conception Of Christian doctrine and
practice throughout all the churches.

Times.

The Wonder of God.

"He saw that there was no man,
and wondered that there was no inter-
cessor." Here is needy world with
its chiefest hope in what intercess!on
may bring. Here is God who de-
clares that unlimited blessing may be
gained for men through intercesSion.
Here is yourself with some knowledge
in your own experience of what in
tercession might mean. Yet God waits
and wonders! The phrase IS not 100
strong. Remember the missionaries
who have gladly renounced all for the
Joy of putting q new light into despair
ing faces-but they spend little time
in asking for the Light. Remember
the pastors whose calling it is to min
ister-but they have renounced the
highest and most efficient ministry. Re-
member the myriads who prate cease
lessly about the worlds need of re-
vival-but they talk little about it to
Him who alone can give it. Remem-
her what you say you believe, recall
what YOU actually do-and cease to
wonder that God wonders.-Pacifc

RalIroai Rate Legislation.

Testifyins before the Senate COM
mittee at Washington, Interstate Com
merce Commissioner Prouty said in
discussing the proposition 20 give that
commission the power to regulate rail-
way rates:
81 think the railways should make
their own rates. / think :hey should
be allowed to develop their own busi-
ness. | have never advocated any
law, and I am not now in favor of any
law. which would put the Sate making
power into the hands Of any commits
sion or any court. While 1t may be
necessary to do that some time, while
that is done in some States at the
present time, while it is done in some
countries. 1 am opposed to it. The
railway rate is property. 1t is all the
property that the railway has got. Tie
rest of its property is not good for
anything unless it can charge rate.
Now it has always seemed to me that
when a rate was fixed, II that rate was
an unreasonable rate, it deprlves the
railroad company Of its property pro
tanto. 1t is not necessary that you
should confscate the property OF
railroad; 1t is not necessary that you
should say that il shall not earn three
per cent. or four per cent. When you
put ir rate that is inherently un-
reasonable, you have deprived that
company Of its rights, Of its property,
and the Circuit Court Of the Uniteo
States has jurisdiction under the four
tecnth amendment to restrain that.
have looked at these cases great
many times, and can only come to the
conclusion that railroad company Is
entitled to charge fair and reasonable
rate, and if any order Of commission,
II any statute of a State Legislature,
takes away that rate, the fourteenth
amendment protects the railway COM
pany." ----.- -

Chickamauga Park. Ga. May 1.-The
United States Government has here
in operation one Of the largest acety-
lene gas plants in the world. The mil.
itary post at the entrance Of the his.
torical Chickamauga battlefield. where
thirty thousand Union and Confederate
soldiers were lost in the memorable
battle Of September 10 and 20. 1863,
contains about one hundred buildings.
the seventy-five principal ones Of which
are lighted with acetylene. To accom-
piish this six and one-half miles Of
mains and two miles Of service pipes
are in use, while sixty-five street lamps
brilliantly illuminate the avenues Of
the post.
In 1903 the War Department in
stalled a test acetylene plant at Fort
Meyer. Virginia. The results were so
gratifying and the superiority Of the
illuminant so evident that the Govern
ment, March 20. 1904, placed the con-
tract for the Chickamauga plant, in
which every citizen of the United States
should have his pro rata vt pride.
But the Government has not confined
its acceptance Of acetylene to this mill
tary post. Since becoming satisfied of
the efficiency, superiority and econom-
ical advantages Of this particular H.
luminnnt, the United States has IN
stalled a number Of plants in Indian
schools and other Government insti-
tutions.

1t is n matter for national congratu-

best, including the lightiag system, has
been deemed good enough for the
American people.

Train Too Fast for Coyotes.

The recent chase Of wolf by a
train on the Cheyenne & Northern
railroad north of Cheyenne was dis.
counted(near here when engine 1857,
hauling a special fast freight, ran
down and killed two coyotes. The an
imals were tyotting along on the track
over section Of the country that was
deep in snow. At the approach of the
train the coyotes attempted to jump
from the track but the high banks OF
snow prevented this. so they tried to
run away from the iron horse. For
over six miles the race continued be-
fore the coyotes were run down and
killed.-Denver Republican.

For Systematic Scientific Research

Prof. Pearson, the English scientist
has been considering the suggestion
of Prof. Simon Newcomb looking tc
the systematization Of scientific re
search by organizing investigators into
what might be termed battalions. DR.
Pearson says that what science needs
at present is to get rid Of most of its
data and investigators with brains
enough to interpret what is left. AT
least so per cent Of the observations
made and the data collected" says
Prof Pearson, "is worthless. and nc
man, however able, could deduce any
result from them at all. In engineers
language, we need to 'scrap-heap'
about so per cent Of the products Of
nineteenth century science"
