Importance of the Church
BY DIR. ANsON PHELPS STOKES,
Canon of Washington Cathedral.

We live in a democracy where, fortunately, there is and can
be no State Church. This leads some people to the impression
that the church does not play any large spiritual part in Amer
lean thought and life; but this is a superficial observation. We
have just seen a change of administration, when a President,
who was a regular attendant at a Congregational Church., gives
way to a President who attends a Quaker Meeting House. Such
a transition is entirely consistent with our traditions. AS one

Sen. Joe Moore OF the Hunt county district Is an
editor and publisher. He has been camping on the
trail Of State Supt. Mars for years. He has been
camping on the trail Of the so-called book trust for
wears. Sen. Moore fought the provision Of a state
board Of education bin providing that the superint-
endent of public instruction be selective and not cleo
tive. That is. he demanded the superintendent should
be elected by popular vote instead OF having the board
appoint him. The senate bill declared for the s~elective
method.
Sen. Moore was very angry.
He predicted that the house would never agree 70
the ~seiective method as provided by the senate amend
ment. Sen. Moore must have the gift Of prophecy. On
the closing day or the special session the house stood
pat, the senate surrendered. the board Of education
bill went over the top. but the people will continue
TO name the superintcndants for at least two years

Sen. Moore had been given a hint that Supt. Mars
would be the choice Of the state board Of education.

Sweeping Victories for the
Railroads

It has come to pass that the result OF years OF laoo1
by the interstate commerce commission IN valuhg
railroads or rate making and other purposes was Sc
riously impaired, if not entirely swept aside IN a
most important decision by the supreme court OF
the United States. This highest tribunal OF the re-
public. dividing five to three with Justice Pierce But
Ter Of Minnesota not participating. held that the
commission work in its valuation work must observe
such elements as the present cost Of construction OF
reproduction.
1t is said that the RECESSION added S2,O0OOOOOOO gross
receipts to American railways. Wall street went wild.
To be exact the decision CT the supreme court IN the
OFallon case sustained the contention OF the at
torneys for the railways that the railroads OF the
country have a value OF $50. 000.O0O,000, instead OF
a value Of $685. 600. 100000, the valuation placed upon
the roads by the interstate commerce commission.
1t was the most sweeping victory ever won by the
railroads. 1t was a black eye for the l. c. Q. IL was
a stunning blow for national lawmakers who insist that
the rate making power can be delegated to a COM
mission and the decree of the commission to be the
last word. Thus another paramoun issue has been
let loose in the political arena and the finish is not
in sight.

Selling Texas to Texans

An organization known as South Texas Incorporated
Is to sell South Texas to South Texans. 1t is the
mission Of the organization TO advertise South Texas
nationally. Fred Herndon Of San Antonio is the pub
licity director. All South Texas counties are to be
gathered in.
1t is to be regretted that 1t is necessary TO sell South
Texas, or any part Of Texas. TO Texans, but the nee
essity exists. South Texas is one Of the wonder Sec
tions of the commonwealth. It is to be advertised
nationally. In 1910 the population Of South Texas
with its gulf coast and its Rio Grande border, may
60 beyond the 5000 600 mark.
1t has the possibilities. the resources, the soil, the
water. the transportation facilities and the nearness,
by rail or steamer, to the great buying centers Of
America.

The genial Texan is rarely heard on the floor OF the
house. He is extremely modest and leaves speech
making to his colleagues. Rather would he sit and
listen. and then express his opinions in private where
they would be the most effective.
He says his desire to remain in the background has
been broken only once. But that one time he did
cause CONSERVATION. So abrupt and unconventional
was the reparture that he will remember 1t for a long
time.
II happened in the early sos. when he was station
haggagemaster at a little town Of Rosenberg. Texas.
IN addition to his duties as baggagemaster he also
was a car. recorder. Between the two he was kept
quite busy, and since he had only one assistant he was
required to work II hours every day.
His offices were in a box car which served as the
waiting room for passengers. There was no hotel or
rccming house nearby. SO Mansfield and his assist
ant had constructed sleeping quarters in the car.
This had been done by placing a few boards over the
icists on which was spread a mattress.

gate-the evening / read of Dovie's

have"
He stopped as though IL we're very
hard to tell his story, and Vivian
was unable 10 speak.
They say that money can't buy
happiness. Wv. But ID can err
tainly help a lot. I don't want to
lose all my grandfather's money. 1t

able Of embarrassing me in any

Vivian sank back in her seat
waiting. He held her hand tightly.
and bent and looked into her face:
II want you TO marry me-for one
year"
Her hands trembled. and she
closed her eyes weakly.
For one-year-what do you
mean?"
