oial support which the friendship Of
Rome could aid It in obtaining, and
that time was az recent as the close Of
the Spanish-American war, when the
influence OF the Vatican was sufficient
to create public opinion all over Eu-
rope favorable to Spain. But spain's
currency needs no such appreciation
today and she feels that the alliance
so long maintained with Rome does
not now offer sufficient returns for
what II costs to continue It.
This appears to be a very rational
explanation of the situation, and the
fact that every spectacular feature of
the disturbances attending the So
called revolution has been promptly
thwarted offers some additional proof
of this theory. Not even the burning
passion of the Carlists to make this
appear as simply a political and re-
ligious uprising has succeeded 1t

sentially anti-religious. One cannot
doubt that the ultimate outcome will

CLERGY Criticises the Churnh

Many clerymen are taking the posi-
ton that the church is closing the door
of opportunity and invitation to the
young man entering the ministry by
not only paying meager salaries, but
limiting his period of desirable service.
A minister who says he has been a
member of governing boards of col
leges and a seminary for many years,
writing to the Interior of Chicago un-
der the signature of "A Pastor" says:
The church is so limiting the active
and income-producing period of the min
istry that 1t is not surprising that men
refuse II for other fields which offer a
larger range Of effective service.
He then cites case where a church.
wanting a pastor, rejected two candi-
dates, one of whom was Just past 40,
the other less than so and both strong
and vigorous and pious, on the ground
that they were too old" another case
of church rejecting a minister
candidate on the same ground who
was As. One church was a rather
prominent city organization, the other
a small country place paying, with the
aid of the home mission board, less
than $1,000 a year, This pastor then
adds:
Now IL the church is going to saw 10
our ministry that II will require them
TO take an educational course which they
can scarcely finish before they are 25.
and will cease to desire their services at
40, and thus limit their employment TO
fifteen years, is II fair TO ask young men
TO enter the ministry? l shall urge them
in that direction no longer while the
church limits their service to such a
short term.
Certainly this criticism and this
minister's position seem to be unas-
sailable in the circumstances. But
how is the church going to Justify
such narrow course, or long endure
in the pursuit OF Il? OF course. the
church will endure, but il will be by
coming to its senses as to the treat,
ment of the men It calls to its pulpits
No business or other profession offers
as little of material encouragement as
does the Christian ministry. Why?
There Is no reasonable answer.

Keen Your Word.

A mans word is his stock-in-trade,
and it cannot be broken without injur-
ing his commercial standing. Many
good men grow careless of their word
and fail to see the Importance of keep
ing it until they have suffered some
serious consequence. There are those
whose word is said to be as good as
their bond. Whether it is or not,
their word must be good, for the world
is not easily deceived about such
matters.
Keeping ones word is more often a
matter Of habit than character. Good
men, with the best of intentions, some
times become careless in respect to a
promise, a statement or an engage
ment, and, while no harm is meant, it
might as we'll be, for one cannot hab-
itually break his word without losing
his caste as man of his word
Nothing is more essential in business
life as the element of confidence, and
confidence, after all, rests entirely
upon ones care in doing what he says
he will do. This matter Of personal
integrity cuts a larger figure in bust
ness than we are sometimes willing to
admit. 1t is one of the demands that
business makes of men to fulfill their
words. Let business learn to distrust
a mans reliability as to his word and
it will soon discount his liability as a
business man.
Men with very glazing faults often
redeem themselves in business by
scrupulously safeguarding the integ-
rity of their word. Young men enter
ing life in whatever capacity will do
we'll to give special heed to this fact
and all it means to them and their
future. You cannot Josh" your way
through business. You may do lot
of other things, but one thing you
must not do is to throw away your
word. When everything else is gone
and that is left you have the nucleus
for another start, but IL with your
financial failure your word also has
failed, your situation is grave, indeed.
1t is easy to fail in ones word, too, but
not SO easy to repair the injury that
the failure entails

Off to School.


In the life of every mother there
comes a time when she must relin-
quish sole and absolute authority over
her little ones and share It with an
outsider. That seems anomalous and
uninviting, yet what serious-minded,
mother. who has stood at her
door on the first day of a new school
year and for the first time babe her
little one goodbye as he or she goes
forth to begin the struggle for an edu-
cation, does not know that this is
true?
The first day Of school, therefore,
often brings a little pang of melan-
choly to more than the romping boy
who reluctantly passes out of his sum-
mers vacation into the work of an
other year. But the mother who does
not understand that this sharing of a
duty with the teacher means enlarge
ment and not curtailment of her own
individual responsibility misses the
lesson entirely. The little one, whose
sole companion has been it's mother,
may not as often run with it's childish
worries and trials to mamma" may
not again enjoy the unbroken intimacy
with that mother which the nursery
made possible, but in new and better
sense she and the mother remain COM
panions. Her little vision of life grad
ually widens and takes In a broader
scope. new objects each bringing Its
own meaning and significance, and this
all brings back to the mother duties
and responsibilities which the teacher
though she be the mothers co-worker
in now shaping the destiny of this
young life, cannot entirely meet and
satisfy.
AS the sharer with the mother in
such solemn duties of training young
minds, the teacher becomes a most inn
portant factor in the home and the
state, and it ought to be the part OF
every teacher to understand this thor
oughly. To her, no matter how much
1t may look still to the mother of its
infancy, the child will inevitably look
to the teacher for a large part of its
development. This relation between
pupil and teacher must obtain If the
best results are to be accomplished
and it is a short-sighted parent who
would seek to deny or evade this
division of authority with the teacher
But, just the same, these first days
of school always will bring their little
silent pangs of emotion.

A Jim Crow Law Decision.

The United States supreme court not
long ago made a ruling on a case com
ing up from Kentucky which seems to
remove the onus of the so-called Jim
Crow laws from the shoulders of the
southern states. This decision. which
affirms a ruling of the lower courts
that a railroad could lawfully maintain
separate compartments for the races,
may set new precedent and anticipate
the ultimate outcome of the case now
pending from Oklahoma, at the same
time serving to simplify the whole sit
uation.
In the Kentucky case a negro bought
first class ticket to go from Louis
vile to Washington, d. c., becoming,
thereby, an interstate passenger, and
he took a seat in a car reserved ex-
clusively for white people. When asked
to go to car set apart for colored pas
sengers he refused, contending that
the Kentucky law making this distinc-
ton did not apply to interstate passen-
gers, and when forced to pass into the
other car he protested and afterward
brought suit for damages He lost in
the trial court and again on appeal to
the court of appeals, and lost again be-
fore the United States supreme court.
But the interesting part of this de-
cision is that it does not depend on the
state or Interstate character of the pas
senger, nor on a states right to make
such a law, but rather on the rail-
roads right to regulate its transporta-
ton. The court holds that a railroad
has a right to make reasonable rules
for the disposition of its passengers"
and, quoting from an old decision by
former Chief Justice Waite, the court
says: This power of regulation may
be exercised without legislation as well
as with it," 1t lays special stress on
the point that the reasonableness of
the regulation does not depend on
whether the passenger is state or in
terstate.
The court then adds that the test of
"reasonableness" on the part OF the
railroad regulations must be the same
as on the part of legislature enacting
such a law, namely, the established
usages, customs and traditions of the
people," and the promotion of their
comfort and the preservation of the
public peace and good order" OF
course with such test the regulations
that go to sustain a Jim Crow law
down south would never be reason.

for such a law is never thought of,

Strikes and Coal Prices.

effect upon the other kinds, a most
cheering thought for the householder
who had been counting on cutting
down his coal bills this winter.
The mines from which this grade of
coal comes have been idle for some
time and are said to be full OF water
The miners and their employers came
to slight disagreement over business
matters last spring and have not as
yet adjusted their differences, nor do
they seem likely to soon. Whether
they do or not, the mines have been
idle so long that this dealer says the

generally both are-he pays the
freight at all events. 1t Is a poor com
ment on the efficiency of the coal
miners organizations and the mine
owners ability to deal with the labor
situation for these conditions to recur
every year. 1t is not right to impose
unnecessary hardships of this sort on
the people, who have no hand In pro-
voking the trouble. They are put to
it bad enough to meet the general run
of prices as they are fixed by ordinary
economic conditions and ought not
to have to endure additional burdens
