BOURNE MAKES PLEA
FOR FAIR MAIL RATES
Former Senator Says Roads Returns
Should Be Equal to Those of
Passenger Service.

II am thoroughly convinced that for
carrying the mails the railroads should
be paid a rate that will give them the
same returns, per car mile, that they get
on an average from passenger traffic y
said former Senator Jonathan Bourne.
jr., chairman OF the Joint Congressional
Committee on Railway Mail Pay, yester-
day "I am speaking entirely for myself
and in no manner for the committee. My
conclusions have been reached after
many months study Of the subject.
Everything that is necessary for in
creased volume of passenger traffic is
a relatively corresponding benefit to the
mail In its transportation over the rail-
roads. The Postoffice Department has
advanced the theory that the mail shall
not bear its relative proportion Of ex-
pensive terminals, ticket agents, and
many other things pertaining to the pas
senger service. but / assert this conten-
ton is not sound. The volume of pas
senger business depends on all Of these
things and they are necessary to the in
crease of passenger business and, hence.
necessary for mail transportation, and
the government should pay its relative
proportion of same.
The duty of our committee Is to de-
termine as far as it is possible to de-
termine, what is a just compensation to
be paid to the railroads for the carriage
of mail Government Is formed for the
protection Of its citizens, and the pre-
seryation Of their personal and property
rights. It ought to set an example for
all the people and should. therefore. it.
self do Justice to each individual in So
ciety."

IS SAME AS
that Of OUR Fathers
Rev. Or. Montgomery Says Principles
of Faith Have Not Changed
Through Ages.
A PURE HEART Is ESSENTIAL

That religion brought up to date is
much the same as the beliefs OF our
forefathers was the thought conveyed by
Rev. James Shera Montgomery. in his
sermon on The Modern Definition OF
Religion" at the Metropolitan N. z.
Church last night.
"The day is practical" said DIR. Mont
gomery. 1T demands a religion that
runs Gods errands, leading to human
hearts and homes. We may juggle it
up and juggle IL down and theologians
may label their dye-stuffs even as drug
gist does his bottless yet the mind Of the
world with a growing vision and COM
prehension will only willingly turn with
acceptance to the benevolent hand and
the pure heart.
This world must ever be made the
royal pathway for the human soul. Cast
thy bread In unselfish service, in self
and with a sympathy that
warns, and ever with a free hand. Cast
thy love upon man everywhere, but es-
pecially into the human depths, where
men labor and toll in the worlds night:
cast IL upon tired bodies, pacing the
daily mill; cast It upon the human wrecks
washed upon the chilly edges of the
worlds half-opened heart.
The worlds faith and hope will ever
cling about the pure in heart here is
the altar at which the world of man
loves to worship. He cherishes a consis-
tent life above any possible declaration
of faith. The good man true, tried, and
and trusted, is as an open fountain for
the thirsty: he is as a watchman upon
the tower who directs and guides 10 the
morning land of the SOUL
