The death Of Mrs. Mary Baker
Glover Eddy, founder Of the cult of
Christian Science, removes form the
world one of the most marvellous
women Of the age. To the student,
Mrs. Eddy was a never failing study.
Descended from long line Of New
England stock, she possessed the
keen insight into human nature
which is an attribute of her people,
and coupled with q ShreWdness and
an ability to make money, made of
her most WOndTOus combination.
So far as the cult Of Christian Science
can be classed as a "religiOn," it
ranks with those of other creeds or
denominations which exact clean,
pure living and preach the penalties
OF infraction. The healing qualities
of the cult have doomed as it's largest
bid for public favor; the motto
seemed that nothing was as it SEEM
ed in SO far as pains and aches went,
but most of the deceased members
have died of diseases not always in
duced by old age. Mrs. Eddy was,
perhaps, the best example of the
triumph Of mind over matter. The
wealth of the Church" was a revela-
ton to many who learned of it only
after Mrs. Eddy's death. AS she was
the absolute head, all holdings of
church property in every place where
the cult had become established, were
in her name, and her wealth was
placed at over thirty millions of dol
lars. Unlike great many founders
OF religious cults, Mrs. Eddy did not
leave any of her wealth to her family,
so the church is firmly established on
a solid financial basis. History will
probably place Mrs. Eddy in the
category with Brigham Young,
'Elijah" DoWie and others who have
beaten out new paths in religious
creeds in late years.

The history of the case. which end

supreme court of the United states
which holds that the so-calIed coal
rate law In not confiscatory, dates back
to April Z, 1907 when an action was
started in the supreme court Of North
Dakota by Atty. Gen. T. F. McCue
compelling the railroads to recognize
the law. The statute In question was
passed at the 1907 session or the state
legislature. 1t fixes the maximum
rate that can be charged for the

PUBLICAN SUCCESS IN 1912.

New York, March 14.-With the de-
psrture Of Senator Elihu Root today
for Washington to inform President
Taft of the result of the conferences
with State Chairman Woodruff and
local republican leaders on the ques-
ton of Woodruff's retirement from the
chairmanship, a political situation
looms up which bears directly not only
on the state campaign next fall, but
on the national campaign Of 1912.
Administration, through Senator
Root, has made it clear to those now
in the party's leadership in this state
that New York must not be lost to
the democrats in the gubarnatorial
elections. for such defeat would en-
danger the party's success two years
later.
To this end Senator Root informed
Chairman Woodruff that the opposi-
ton to Governor Hughes and the lat
ter's measures must cease and the
suggestion is said to have been deli
cately made that the federal power
would be used to thwart such oppos-
ition If continued.
Whether Senator Root sought TO
force Mr. Woodruff from the state
chairmanship as an initial step to re-
move from control the so-called ma
chine leaders was the subject of much
conjecture at the republican state
headquarters today. II am stu here
said Chairman woodruff today. and
then made 1t evident that be would

AVERAGE MIND REvoLTs."

Editor Taylor OF the Valley City
Times Record takes the following
view:
1t is not likely that anything will
come OF the prosecution OF Messrs.
Plunlay and Brewer, of The Fargo
Forum on the charge OF criminal
libel. No man who has any sense
of decency will approve the effort
OF The Forum to besmirch the
characters of Governor Bnrk !.
State superintendent Stockweil and
ex-senator Thomson. and a civi.-
action for both actual and exem-
plary damages would doubtless
stick unless The Forum can make
good its charges. But the average
mind revolts at the thought of a
gentle. inoffensive man like Plum
ley, or a big. good natured fellow
like Brewer actually doing time"
And i'm any case the fast waning
prestige OF The Forum must suffer
almost total collapse when the ami
mus of its attacks upon public men
of the highest repute is fully ex-
posed.

Chicago, March 1.-THE probability
of q great railroad strike was derided
today by prominent railroad official,
who in speaking for the forty-seyen
railroads involved in the firemen wage
controversy, declared that there was
absolutely no chance of a ''walkout."
The railroad managers committee
will meet again today as usual he
said ''and the firemen's letter will be
taken under consideration.
1T is not likely that the railroads
WIN change their attitude. IL 1t was a
question of yielding, we might con-
slider it, but to submit to arbitration
questions Of authority and seniority
would be violating our contract with
the Brotherhood of Railway Engi-

order the men to strike if an unfavor-
able reply to their last letter should
be received. He said he would leave
that to the committee.
