Z IF CENT RATE
 MAY BE PASSED
LITIGATION WILL FOLLOW
DECLARE RAIL- ROADS COULD NOT PAY
 RUNNING EXPENSES.

Little Rock, Feb. 1.-Should the public service committee of the house pass favorably upon the Newton ? 1-2 cent passenger rate bill, and the senate public service corporation committee of the senate reports favor ably upon the Wasson bill of simi- lar nature, another long drawn out litigation will result. While it was not so stated in plain English by the attorneys of the three leading rail roads of the state, who appeared be- fore these committees Friday after noon, yet the inference might be drawn from their remarks, as they stated it was impossible for the rail roads to pay dividends of 6 per cent under Scent rate. The attorneys also stated the railroads are now bor- rowing money to make Improvements in the state and paying as much as 8 per cent for it, when their earn ings are not over per cent.
 The attorneys requested the com mittees to let the railroads alone for a few years and permit them to im- prove their lines in peace. They in- formed the legislators the state has been damaged much more than the public has gained, by the legislation in recent years, and by it all railroad building had been practically stopped.
 One of the attorneys showed what the legislation had done by one rail road having changed it's line so that it ran along the border, as much out of Arkansas as possible, and this en- abled sister state to reap the har- vest of taxation.
 It was pointed out to the commit tee that it is impossible to borrow money for railroad building in Ar kansas on account of the many ad- verse laws of the state, and that sev- eral lines now contemplated are fnd- ing it impossible to make and head way. The attorneys advised lib- eral policy by the lawmakers, and stated if the passenger rates were re- duced it would have to be made up by raising the freight rates, which would affect the people more than maintaining the passenger rates at their present figures.
 Senator Wasson appeared before the senate committee and stated the railroads of Arkansas had earned $9,000,000 during the past year, but was not in possession of figures to show what part of the investment this amounted to. The attorneys for the railroads did not dispute these figures, but stated the railroads, ac- cording to their taxable values, rep resent an investment of $161 100000 in Arkansas.

His Monument.

The monument which marks the
place of his execution consists of two
rough, almost unhewn blocks of Ice
landic basalt in an unpretentious in
closure. The outlines of an episcopal
mitre are chiseled into the upper
block. The simple but touching in
scription reads:

Z. Nov. 1850"
(''Here Bishop Jon Arason gave his
life for his faith and his fatherland, z
Nov. 1902
The memory of the great champion
of the faith in Iceland is held in indy
ing honor not only by the little Cath
olic community of Reykjayik, but by
every true Icelander as well. ION
November Z, 1910" says DR.. Sambeth,
''the third centenary (the Icelandic
century consists of one hundred and
twenty years. of the death of our hero
was solemnly commemorated in the
Catholic church of Reykjavik. Nearly
every official and dignitary of the
island was present at the High Mass.
The catfalque was adorned with the
red velvet cope which Paul III. had
sent three hundred and fifty-eight
years before to Jon Arason as a token
of his affection and admiration"
It may interest the reader to know
that it was Jon Arason who introduced
the printing press into Iceland, and
that the first books printed under his
direction were a "Calendarium Ro-
manum" and a 'Breviarium Nedro-
siense."
Is it presumptuous to hope that God
will in His mercy hear the prayers Of
the last confessor Bishop of Skalholt,
and of the last martyr Bishop of
Holar, and soon lead back to the true
faith the island which they loved even
unto death?

| CELAND'S LAST
CATHOLIC BISHOP
BISHOP JON ARASoN GAVE HIS
LIFE FOR THE FAITH IN 1880
HIS MONUMENT AT sKALHoLT
FIRST BISHOP coNsEcRATED
IN 1856.

In a recent Sunday supplement of
the "Volkszeitung," of Cologne (1913,
No. 94), Dr. Sambeth, the German
army physician, who preferred to re-
sign his commission rather than fight
a duel, tells of his visit to Skalholt, the
seat of the first and the scene of exc
cution of the last Catholic Bishop of
Iceland.
Skalholt is little hamlet consisting
of a modest wooden church, a large
farm, the property of the district ply
stefan, and a number of smaller farm
steads. DR.. Sambeth made the long
and difficult journey to this oasis in
the wilderness to see the monument
recently erected to the memory of Jon
Arason, the great Icelandic poet,
patriot and Bishop. The monument is
the gift Of Protestant lady of Scot
land, who is a frequent visitor in the
island and an enthusiastic admirer OF
the martyr Bishop.
Almost every trace of Skalholt's
Catholic past has disappeared. The
Cathedral has long since fallen prey
to the flames. A richly embroidered
vestment is still shown the tourist in
the little Protestant church that occu.

sings we need and He taught us how
to pray. The rosary is form of
prayer in honor of the Blessed Virgin
Mary which has been enriched by the
Church with many indulgences and
for that reason it is a prayer which
is very dear to the heart of Catholics.
Thos who say it devoutly receive many
graces which it would be difficult for
them to obtain in any other way.
When a person is making a mission
can reserved sins be forgiven in one
confession or does the priest have to
have special permission from the
Bishop?
When sins are reserved confessors,
whether missionaries or not, must re-
ceive the necessary faculties to alb
solve AS general rule, application
must be made in each particular case,
though, sometimes, missionaries are
given more general faculties.

THE BLESSED VIRGIN
PROTESTANT POETS PRAISE THE
MOTHER OF GOD.

MOTHER OF GOD.
have no desire to drag myself or
my readers into controversy, says a
writer in the Providence Visitor, and
the only object I have is to advance
my idea that even if unconsciously the
love of our Blessed Mother is in the
spirit of all men, for almost every
English Protestant poet has paid his
tribute to the Blessed Virgin; and in
strain so lofty in sentiment, so de-
vout in expression, so unctuous in
prayerfulness, so haunting in pathos,
so redolent of spirituality, that even
the most sceptic and callous reader
cannot divest himself of it's forceful,
fervid charm.
Listen to Byron:
Ave Marie! it's the hour of prayer;
Ave Maria! It's the hour of love;
Ave Maria! may our spirits dare
Look up to thine and to thy Sons
above
Ave Maria! oh, that face SO fair,
Those downcast eyes beneath the
Almighty Dove!
Or Wesley's great biographer,
Southey:
They served a Maid more beautiful
than tongue
Could tell or heart conceive. Of hui
man race,
All heavenly as that Virgin was, she
sprung;
But for her beauty and celestial
Being one in whose pure elements
no trace
Had e'er inhered of sin or mortal
stain.
The highest heaven was now her
dwelling place:
There as Queen divine she held her
reign,
And there in endless joy forever would
remain.
Or Wordsworth:
Mother! whose virgin bosom was un-
crossed
With the least shade of thought to sin
allied;
Woman, above all women glorifed
Our tainted natures solitary boast;
Purer than foam on central ocean
tossed,
Brighter than eastern skies at day
break strewn
With fancied roses, than the unblem-
ished moon
Before her wane begins on heavens
blue coast,
Thy image falls to earth. Yet some /
ween,
Not unforgiven, the suppliant knee
might bend
AS visible power, in which did blend
All that was mixed and reconciled in
thee
Of mothers love with maiden purity.
OF high with low, celestial with ter
rene.
Or Longfellow:
Virgin and Mother of our dear Re-
deemer!
All hearts are touched and softened
at her name;
Alike the bandit with the bloody hand.
The priest, the prince, the scholar and
the peasant,
The man of deeds, the visionary
dreamer,
Pay homage to her as one ever pres
ent,
And if our faith had given us nothing
more
Than this example of all womanhood,
So mild, so merciful, so strong, SO
good,
So patient, peaceful, loyal, loving, pure.
This was enough to prove it higher and
truer
Than all the creeds the world has
known before.
Or Poe:
At morn, at noon, at twilight dim,
Maria, thus hast heard my hymn;
In joy and woe, in good and i'll,
Mother of God, be with me still.
Or the Episcopalian Keble:
Ave Maria! thou whose name
ALI but adoring love can claim,
Yet may we reach thy shrine!
For He, thy Son and Saviour, vows
To crown all lowly, lofty brows
With love and joy like thine.
Or Kipling:

been prospected because Of regulation
restricting such operations on the
