Rise Above Controversy.
Another reason and the only one that
adequately explains this congress Is that
the leaders have risen entirely above
the matters that are controversial in
religion. No one can minSle with the
delegates here and not quickly apprc-
ciate the fact that they cover the entire
range of religious opinion and tHeologic-
al doctrine
Nothing would appear easier than TO
split this congress into fragments by

of much thought and experience, but

delegates to the international railroad

road law, which he said was less dras-
tic than the English law.
Congress-" continued Mr.. Lane,
"has not fixed a uniform classification
of freight, maximum or class rates
on a mileage basis, or uniform ter
minal charges; yet the English par
Lament fixed these twenty years
ago. American legislation is based
on English precedents, but is not
nearly so radical. The American
roads have realized that instead of
injuring the roads, the regulations
