RELIGION AND BRYAN'S
RELIGIOUS WORK.
Literary Digest.

That the secretary of state is "a
force for moral and religious life quite
beyond any other man among his fifty
thousand fellow citizens" is asserted
without qualification by a clergyman
of Lincoln, Neb. Mr.. Bryan is a case
of the prophet honored at home. He
is ga model as a citizen and as a
neighbor." He seems to have been a
normally developed Christian boy, says
the Rev. Thomas M Shipherd in The
Congregationalist (Boston). At four
teen he declared his faith, and from
that time till now he has worked at
this profession as he was given to I'M
derstand it. We read:
His has been an intuitive and posi-
tive faith. His interest in religion has
been intellectual only as he has found
arguments to buttress the faith that
was in him.
For him there are no intellectual
difhculties-the soul of religion in it's
simplest forms was in him and is I'M
shaken to this day. Doubt seems
never to have dwelt in him, as is the
case with many men. His participa-
ton in church work and life does not
suit vacation moods. He gives a tenth
OF his income to the work of the
Kingdom. He has probably given more
money, quietly and without special
urging, to church building enterprises
in the city of Lincoln than any other
citizen. He has done this in a way

keeps in the building a room which
he uses very occasionally and which
he provides as a guest-room at the
disposal of the association. Not only
have a great number of the religious
organizations benefited by his gener-
osity, but every public enterprise of
importance appeals first to Mr.. Bryan.
so far as one can discover, Mr.
Bryan has no spendthrift habits save
that of the beneffcent citizen and the
tithing Christian. No more unassum-
ing citizen walks the streets of Lin
coin or rides in it's street cars. There
seems to be no craving for luxury, no
concern for pretense. He is as open to
approach as an unspoiled child. AS he
has a feeling for an audience and an
intuition that guides him TO q response

Mr.. Bryan is a Presbyterian, but the
Normal often sees him. His tolerably
wide hand shaking experience has not
wearied or sickened him of plain
folks" He is ever ready to defend the
proposition, that the small village

Railroads Fighting
Against Low Rates.

1t Is evident that for the next few
years, at any rate, the railroads of
this country win put up a stiff fight
against low rates that are imposed
by state railroad commissions The
state rate decisions of the supreme
court are generally regarded as merely
the beginning Of the fight by the rail-
roads. The court specifically reserved
the right Of the roads to begin new
proceedings.
It has been estimated that the In
terstate Commerce Commission will
not complete its valuation Of the roads
for five years. In the meantime It Is
certain that many roads will seek to
convince the court that they have ac-
curate figures to show that the low
rates imposed amount to conflscation.
The report from the court goes to
show that the unusual situation of low
rates being applicable TO some roads
in a state and not applicable to others
in the same state, was pronounced by
Justice Hughes to be entirely constf-
tutional. This was IN the Missouri
rate decision.
1t is plainly the duty Of congress to
amend and improve the law defining
the duties and powers of the Inter
state Commerce Commission.

Sets the Example.

FIilisborough county, On the other
end Of the state from Escambia, Is
surely setting the pace in road build
ing. The people of that county pro-
pose to issue bonds for one million
dollars for the purpose OF constructing
highways of vitrfhed brick and will
hold an election in July to vote on
this proposition.
The plan is to have a system of
roads that will embrace about 65 miles
of highway which will touch every
important point in the county.
Judging from what the Tampa news
papers have TO say on the subject, the
bond issue Is likely to carry. II so
