Bible Instead of Politics.

Owensville is perhaps the only
town in the state where merchants
are compelled to keep a Bible IN a
conspicuous place about the store.
This is one of the results of the big
religious revivals that have been in
progress here for two months. Men
who gather about the stoves in the
different stores discuss the teachings
of the Bible now, and so interesting
do the discussions become that the
Bible is necessary to settle disputes,
and many of the merchants are now
keeping a copy of the Holy book on
hand in order that the differences of
opinion relating to it may be rightly
settled and certain verses of Scrip
ture rightly quoted.

SUICIDES.
Threatened With Exposure by News
papers and Ordered to Leave
Town.

The Rev. DR.. George Simmons OF
Peoria, Ill, committed suicide Tues
day morning. He was found dead in
bed by members of the family. He
had taken cyanide of potassium.
Pastor of the First Baptist church,
president of the two savings banks,
originator of Mocon "a substitute for
coffee, author of a number of relig-
ious works, and widely known as a
lecturer, recently chosen to take
charge of the Yates campaign in Hi
nois, DR.. Simmons was one of the
best known preachers in the West.
Not until late last week had a word
ever been whispered against his per-
sonal character. But on Saturday
morning complaint was made to the
states attorney that Simmons had
been %corrupting the minds and morals
of a number of small boys who be-
longed to the Baptist Boys Brigade.
A quiet investigation revealed the
facts though they were kept from the
general public. The editors of the
Star, Journal and Herald transcipt
called him in and told him that if he
would leave the city within "a hours
there would be no prosecution in or
der to save a scandal and keep the
boys from losing their regulations
for life. He consented and at once
resigned as president of the Interstate
Bank and Trust company, which he
had organized on an original plan last
summer.
Simmons formerly was pastor at
Terre Haute, Ind, and Henderson,
KY.

The allied railroads of the country
are sending their best lawyers to
Washington to find out the meaning
of the tendency of the House of Rep
resentatives to investigate various
phases o. their business. Within the
last few days they are showing more
concern about this disposition on the
part of the House to investigate than
about the fate of railroad rate legis-
latlon. 1t may turn out that before
the finish comes they will be willing
to accept almost any kind of rate leg
islation provided the proposed %investi-
cations are called off. No one can
foretell accurately at this time what
will come of the tendency in the
House, but this much is plain-many

Events of the last few days have
shown the wisdom of the course of
the President in making only one
large demand on Congress at this SEES
slOn-the demand for railroad rate
legislation. By putting all his eggs
in one basket" he placed the Senate
at a great disadvantage. When the
anti-railroad rate Senators approach
the White House now with a propo-
sition to do so and so with reference
TO other pending legislation If the
President will yield on some of the
vital provisions in the railroad rate
program, he is able to say to them:
You have not anything to trade"
1t IS pretty we'll understood that the
President would sacrifice the Santo
Domingo treaty, the Philippine tariff
bill, the pure food bill, and the joint
statehood bill, before he would con-
sent that there shall be no railroad
rate legislation.
