time has been actively engaged in the
practice of law in Becker and adjoin-

something resembling div in e
right. The gratuity practice
should be relegated to the scrap
heap, where it belongs, and the
preacher paid enough salary, and
paid promptly, too, to enable
him in turn to pay for what he
gets instead of decorating the
free list.
The gratuity system makes
bad men out of good ones; lag
CARDS out Of hustlers; beggars
out of preachers. If the pew
did it's duty, the pulpit wouldn't
have to ask for "handout" with
a degree of regularity painful to
the public. Of course, there are
crooked preachers just as there
are crooked men in other lines
of business. But that is no ar
gument against pure religion
any more than the fact that dis
honest bankers exist proves
that the banking business is a
fraud. The exception on | V
proves the rule. But the moral
is plain; abolish gratuities; pay
the preacher decent salary and
pay it promptly; then both re-
ligion and business will pros
per.

PREACHERS PREREQUISITES"

"Subscriber" writes The Her
aid that he read with much in
terest the editorial in last weeks
issue entitled Religion a n d
Business" stating that he heart
| lily endorses h e sentiments
therein expressed, but thinks
the press is not in a position to
criticise preachers for having
accepted half fare transporta
ton when, at the same time,
newspaper publishers rode free;
in other words. AYERS IS u b.
scriber," if the pulpit is open to
criticism for riding on half fare
permits, the press is even more
culpable for travelling on passes.
"Subscriber's'' pre- mise is
wrong; newspaper men did not
ride free in the days of passes;
they paid for every mile of trans
portation used. Payment was
not made in cash but in adver-
Using space and that is the same
as cash to the publisher. Year
ly advertising contracts were
made by the railroads with the
newspapers. The newspapers
ran such advertising as was Of
fered, and in payment therefor
received mileage. Books were
kept by each party to the con-
tract. AS a matter of fact,
newspapers generally had the
short end of the deal, for as a
rule they printed more advertis-
ing than they received transpor-
tation, though they did not re-
ceive cash nor anything else for
the overrun. Since the anti
pass law took effect advertising
is paid for in cash by the roads
and publishers pay cash for their
tickets.
What "quid pro quo" did the
preachers ever render for the
fifty per cent reduction in rail
road fare they for years received?
Will some member of the cloth
please answer? Don't reply all
at once, gentlemen; it might
cause confusion.
Newspaper publishers to a
man agree that under the new
regime they are much better off
than under the old; they receive
cash for their advertising and
pay for what transportation they
desire to use. If the new plan
works so we'll for the journalist.
why not for the preacher? And
yet the writer of this article has
heard much grumbling from the
cloth because their half fare
permits, for which they never
gave any return but which the
blandly accepted as a gratuity
pure and simple, were taken
away from them.
The custom of placing preach
ers on the free list of newspaper
subscribers, mentioned in the
article which Subscriber" so
heartily endorses, is open to just
as much criticism as is the half
fare railroad permit. 1t is a
gratuity for which there is no
excuse, and yet the average
preacher would probably raise
| his voice in protest were the
publisher to ask him to pay for
his paper.
Fact is, as stated in the last
issue, the cloth has become so
accustomed to receiving gra-
tuities that it accepts them by

fidence in his ability and integrity and
