CONTROL
OF RAILROADS
Conservationist Favor Taking
Up Alaska Coal Lands.

Kansas City, Mo, Sept. 2S.-W. j.
Bryan addressed the national conserva-
ton congress. He left politics entirely
cut Of his address and spoke generally
on the conservation subject. He piled
emphasis on a statement that the char
acter of man is the controlling principle
of conservation.
The session was enlivened by reports
that 'the interests were trying to
dictate the resolutions and control the
convention. The resolutions, however,
are of special interest in that they
recommend the government ownership
Of railroads In Alaska and control of
the coal lands.

TAFT MESSAGE
TOTHEKANSANS
Defends Tariff Vetoes at
His Last Stop.

Leavenworth, Kan, Sept. 2S.-Presi-
dent Taft's visit to Kansas Is at an
end. Three large audiences heard him
speak on his last day in the state.
The president was kept away from
political speeches by the G. AR. re
union in Topeka, and the county pic
mic at Atchison. His final address,
however, was devoted to the tariff.
Mr.. Taft just before leaving issued a
statement thanking the people Of this
state for their kindly reception. Here
Is the presidents message to the Kan
sans:
81 am sincerely grateful to the people
Of Kansas not only for the warm well
come which they extended to me as
president of the United States, but for
the kindly attention which they gave
to what / said. l found the intelligent
men and women of Kansas looking
prosperous, happy and cOntented and
congratulate them on the evidences
thereof that abounded on every hand"
Mr.. Taft has now Travelled through
four congressional districts of the eight
Of this state. Two of these were In
surgent districts, admittedly so ever In
Kansas, and two of them were ranked
as stand pat" having returned their
old congressman after hard fights In
the primaries during the heyday Of In
surgency in this section of the coun-
try. 1t is admitted by his enemies that
the president has covered a representa-
tive portion Of the state on his visit.
The presidents first day here was q
surprise to every one. The reception
did not abate in numbers through the
whole four days trip in the state.
Forty thousand people packed into
the public square before the state cap
itol at Topeka, where the president
spoke at the G. A. r. reunion. Mr..
Taft was obliged to go from one corner
of the big platform to the other in or
der to satisfy the crowds that banked
the platform on every hand. He made
most Of his talk for the benefit of the
old soldiers, and only reserved a small
portion of 1t for himself in his arbitra-
ton speech.
The picnic and reception at Atchison
was the most picturesque Of the four
days Of his visit here. Bale Waggener
was the host of the children of the
county, and the president accepted the
invitation to become part of the show.
In Leayenworth the president had a
noisy reception. They brought out the
show cavalry from Fort Leavenworth
and several bands and gave the presi-
dent a fine parade. 1t was close to a
hundred degrees where the president
discussed the tariff with an immense
audience In the public square. A cou- I
pie of old men had to be hurried out
of the press. 1t was another Kansas
audience that stood quiet and atten-
i've while the president went over the
tariff with them. The most persistent
that h~s h~V ,~~~n~a n. tho
president during his visit here has been
that he has wasted his audiences and
has not discussed politics as often as
be might

MEANING OF
YOM KIPPUR
Rabbi Wolf Explains the
DAY of Atonement."

The Day of Atonement, Yom Kip
pur, which occurs next Monday
and its meaning is explained by
J Rabbi Wolf, as follows:
! When the first stars appear in
the heavens Sunday evening, Octo-
Der LIST, they viii usher in the day
hottest to the Jew in his entire re-
ligious calendar. From that hour
until the evening Of the following
day. October 2, the devout Israelite
will give himself entirely to God,
and to the purifying of his soul by
repentance. 1t will be q day spent
by him in meditation and prayer,
with no thought of the world, It's
profits and pleasures. 1t IS the great
White Fast, when absJaintng from
all food, from shutdown to sun
down, the people of Israel "aiiict
their souls" for the sins Of the past
year.
The holy day is mentioned in the
Bible in a number of places; Levi
sticus xvi. describes the elaborate
priestly ceremonial of atonemeut;
in the tWenty-third chapter it APP
pears in the list of festivals where
the Affections Of the SOUL EAST
ing is ordained. From these and
:simiIar references and later accounts
in the Talmud We can get a picture
Hof this Day Of Awe as it was Cele-
ibrated in Biblical times. The holy
day on the tenth day OF Tishri was
observed by a~bsteutiOn from food
land drink and by an elaborate cere-
monial in which the high priest was
the central figure.
From this Biblical ceremonial
(which throughout seeks for forgive
ness of the community as a whole,
the Day Of Atonement has been
ibomewhat changed in Rabbinic Jul
daism and in the modern service and
Emphasizes also repentance and
prayer for the forgiveness Of each
Individual missing soul. So COM
pletes the penitential period of ten
days that have begun with the New
Years day.
The celebration Of the Day of
AtDnement begins with the evening
service. called KOl Nidre, from its
opening formula, which refers to
VOWS concerning the individual and
his conscience. With its strongly
marked melodies and songs, this
service assumed in the course of
fine a very impressive character.
LHe ~lOIiON ms uaJ d CCu
.tinuOus series OF services is held,
(which toward the middle of the af-
Z eTnoon is heightened in impressive
ness by a most solemn cOmmemor-
alive service for the dead. This is
Followed by the Neilah, or closing
Service, in which the main ideas Of
the day are especially emphasized:
repentance. conditioning forgive
hess and Gods sealing the decree of
man for the ensuing year.

A GROWING EVIL.

AS the Providence Visitor well
says, it is a striking commentary on
the pagan spirit of the times that
the following words from the lips of
a woman could find place even in a
yellow journal: Mothers can not
afford to rear families, because in
the attempt they will lose the
affection of their husband, squander
their beauty, break their own hearts,
and receive no reward for their
pains. On these grounds the woman
of today may lawfully excuse
herself"
The rantings of irresponsible per-
sons would best be treated by silence,
but when everybody with fable
IT criminal or unnatural or absurd
is given first place in a certain class
of widely read journals, it is in
evitable that harm will come to those
who absorb the daily poison. OF
course the glorious galaxy Of Cath
Ollie mothers who have pride and
honor in the fruit OF their mother
hood are not affected by such
atrocious drivel, but it is not inn
possible that some, tainted already
by the selfishness of immoral doc
trinaires, do not hold these views In
adherence as they should.
Altogether apart from the con-
sideration of stern duty in the mat
ter, 1t is clear to any person who is
not abnormal or debased. that
children are a bond that binds the
loves and the lives of husband and
wife. Only the criminally selfish
married shirker can fail to see that
the child in the mothers arms
that most endearing of human sights
lis the best guarantee of the con-
tinued happiness of the normal,
decent man and wife. It is true OF
course that the duty of motherhood
does not square with the horrid
ambitions of the debased creatures
who love their country for its easy
divorce laws; nor with the desire of
the wife whose god is self, but
Catholic women are not of these.

MONEY MANIA.

How different are our Catholic
educational institutions from others
can be best judged from the words
of DR.. Andrew F. West, of Princeton
University, who writes thus of the
real aim of the many colleges where
the true religion is not recognized;
1--WE often hear 1t said that learn
ing should have a practical purpose,
and that sounds reasonable enough
until we inquire what is meant by
practical. Then we usually find that
practical means money getting. We
are told that learning is only val
liable II It helps man in the
struggle of life. But II that is ever
generally believed the universities
will change their nature and our
civilization will become only an
deliberately organized barbarism.
Universities rose into being and
flourished in power and splendor
because their business was to help
not the individual in his struggle
for life, but the world in its effort to
rise above the struggle for life"
DR.. West realizes that without
religion there can be no education
with the moral uplift that will pre-
serve our country and its institutions
as the founders of our government
intended.

numbers Monday night to attend the

Gaudin and a delegation of knights

hour along the same lines as the day

were called upon were Gen. Michael
Reichert, Col. J. p. McGinn, Presi-
dent Will T. Meehan and the editor
of the Kentucky Irish American.
President Gaudin's address left a
marked impress on his hearers and
will do much to awaken interest

Before leaving Louisville President
Gaudin paid his respects to Bishop
ODonaghue, by whom he was most
cordially received. Monday the

TINE WILL COME.

What II shall be we do not know.
How II shall come we can not tell.
Whether II shall come. as the old
prophets thought, "amid the clash of
worlds or wreck of matter" or as
the gentle beauty of May morning,
we can not see. But 1t will come.
IL will be just as easy for this world
to end as II was for 1t to begin, and
there is much greater reason for the
ending than there is for the begin
ming. The inequality OF this world
must be somewhat adjusted. Here
wrong is sometimes triumphant. in
solent power occasionally victorious
and unblemished. virtue misjudged
and Misunderstood. AS surely as
the sun shines the time will come
when the one will be punished and
the other rewarded. and when equal
and exact justice, the most glorious
phrase known to any language, shall
be melted out to all.

THE LITTLE SISTERS.

Amid the city's dust and din
Your patient feet have trod;
Wherever sorrow Is, or sin,
You do the work Of God.
You seem in many a shadowed place
A glory from above
The peace of heaven is in your face,
And in your heart Is love.
Your brow is lined with others cares,
And aches for others needs;
You bless the dying with your pray
ers,
The living with your deeds.
You SOW the wayside hope that lives
Where else we're only dearth;
Your love is like the rain that gives
Heavens secret to the earth.
The plying thoughts that fill your
eyes
And rob your years OF rest,
That lead you still where misery
signs
And life is all unblest.
Are as the tears that angels shed
DER darkened lives forlorn--
Stars in the gloom till night has fled
And dew on earth at morn.

week for Rome, where they will be
formally raised to the dignity of
Cardinal on November 81. Many Of
the prominent clergy and laymen of

taking with him to Rome one of the
finest Cardinals rings in the world.
1t contains sapphire with the
largest surface of any sapphire in
this country. The ring was pre-
sented to the Archbishop before his
departure by lifelong friend. The
blue sapphire is always used for the
ring of Cardinal. although the
robes of the prelate are red.
