Eight Big Iowa Railroads.

A Fl. Davidson, secretary OF the eN-
ecutive council. has concluded footing up
the totals and averages of the railroads
of Iowa, the last reports from some small
lines having been received The figures
correspond practically to those published
in The Bee over a week ago, and show
that eight railroads OF Iowa own all but
7O2 miles OF the 1891 miles Of main track,
The figures also show that the mileage of
the roads in the state has remained practi-
cally the same, but showing decrease OF
three miles, due to differences In the reports
last year and this as to what is main and
what is second track. The total mileage
of all roads reported for last year for main
track was 9,SO492 and this year. es0l.33.
Last year there was reported 707.66 miles OF
second track, and this year. 721.O5 miles.

DIES MONIES. June A-(specisl )-"What
is Relgion2" This Is a question that the
supreme court must decide in solving the
disposal of the Amans society case now
before the court The question is pro-,
pounded in the printed reply of Attorney
General Mullen. which was filed Saturday
with the clerk Of the supreme court. The
reply is made to the printed and oral argu-
ment of Judge Wade for the society that
the engaging in secular pursuits is insep-
arably linked with the religion of the SO
ciety. Attorney General Mullen quotes
score of authorities on the subject from
the Century and Webster dictionaries to
ToIstol, Max Muller and Goblet d'Aviella
and Theodore Parker. From all of these
he adduces proof that religion is a spirit
ual element in the human mind" and is
quite possible Of being separated from the
conduct of the vast estate of B,225 acres
OF the Amana society in Iowa county. He
argues to the supreme court that a religious
society is one organized for the exercise
Of ceremonies and form of worship and
the carrying on OF religious work consonant
with the belief of the members of the or
ganization." He argues from these def
nitions that religion does not lead anyone
| to carry on farming and stock raising and
manufacturing, and endeavors to convince
the supreme court that since the argument
| of Judge Wade is wrong in this respect
| his entire argument is fallacious, since
! II Is founded on that one claim Judge
Wade holds that the Amana society people,
| believing in the scriptural injunction Of the
| apostle to have all things in common, leads
| them to live as they are living and carry
| ing on secular pursuits.

from Fayetteville, has come in for

When the committee on enter
tainment was being appointed it
was suggested that the name of
Miss Desda Garner be. added on
the ground that the committee
should not neglect to recognize
beauty as well as wisdom. Supt.
Simmons was then added to the
committee. The question was
made as to whether this was a
recognition of wisdom or beauty.
1t seems sure now that Simmons
will be a warm factor to deal with
in the race for bachelor of ugli-
ness. Last year his defeat by
Salsberry was encompasSed only
