BRYAN'S POSITION.
Government Ownership of Railroad*
Not an Immediate Issue, Declares
the Great Nebraskan.
William J. Hrvilli issues tlie following
st : ! einoii I :
"Government ownership is not an
imiwdbpc issii". A 'arge majority ol
the people siil litt] e lor effective regulation,
While they s?? hope, they
will iu>| consider government ownership.
While many Democrats heliev<
and Mr. Hryan is one of them, thai
public owner;- nip in railm.ids is ; !i<
:u:?in ; 1 e solr.iion the problem,
still, those who believe that the public
will Iitin)|y in self defence he, driven
to ownership. recognize (lint regulation
must he tried under the most
favorable circumstances before Hip
masses will be ready to try a more
radical remedy.
"Hernialion can not he sulliciciit I y
tried within th" ne\! year. There is
no desire ,?nywhere to make governmcnt
ownership an issue in lflOS.
Mr. Bryan l'i t|y agrees with those
who believe that il would he unwise
t) turn a'lent' .n fr.un regulation, on
wnifh the people are ready to act, to
government o vnership, ?,n which the
people are not ready ?o act. To inject
the i;o\ ei-nment ownership ijiieslion
into the next campaign, would
simply give representatives of the
l nil roads a chance to doi'ge tin1 issue
of regulation and deceive the public.
So far, (he railroads have been
siK-ce-sfnl in prevent ing effective federal
re^ulat iou, and Staio regulation
has .is a rule been restrained by the
1 uited Stales courts, l! is about 2(1
years since the interstate commerce
commission was created. It required
about 10 years for the court to find
our that the powers conferred were
insutlicient and then it took about
10 years to procure ail amendment
1 he railroads fought the amendmen'
nt every step, and the president was
finally forced to compromise with the
railroad Republicans of the senate in
order to procure their surport.
" Kven that amendment, obtained
with tremendous efTorf, falls short of
what it should be. It aims lo stop
passes and rebates. The railroads
pro I it by both the stoppage of rehates
and the prohibition of passes
but extortionate rales still exist
State legislation for the reduction o'
rates has resulted in an agitation on
the part of the railroads for legislation
which will deprive the Stale ol
authority and centralize all rate legislation
in congress.
" J he I )eniocratic party nui-t nieel

eiicroachincnt s on the authority o

will be increased if an\ attempt i
made to impair State autlioiity. Tin
Republican party is as impotent t<
regulate the railroads as it is to ex
terminate the trusts and to reforn
the tariff.
"The Republican party has in (hre
national campaigns demanded elVec
live railroad regulation, while ih
Republican national plat forms hav
been silent on the subject. The pres
ident has partly adopted the Demo
cratic view on this subject, but so fa
the Republican leaders have resolute

Friends!
O. S. Martin, in "Success Magazine.
Just think of what it means to hav
'Mithusiastic friends always lookin
out for our interests, working for u
nil the time, saying a good word f<
us at every opportunity, supportin
us, speaking for us in our nbsenci
when we need a friend, shielding or
sensitive, wenk spots, stopping slam
ors, killing lies which would injui
us, correcting false impressions, tr>
ing to set us right, overcoming tit
prejudices created by some mistak
or slip, or a first bad impression w
made in some silly moment, who at
always doingisomething.4o give us
or help us along.
I would cut but for our friends What

j friends; the healing halm that Ihev
j have applied to the hurts of the

I very much poorer financially, too,
i hut for the hosts of friends, who
have always sent us customers and
- clients and business; who have al'
ways turned our way everything they
- (mild.
Oh, what a boon our friends are to
j our weaknesses, our idiosyneraasies
and shortcomings?our failures gener,
ally! I low they throw a mantle of
charity over our faults and cover up
our defects!
Was there ever such capital for
starling in business for oneself as
plenty of friends? How many people,
who are now successful have given up
the struggle in some great crisis of
their lives but for the encouragement
of some friend which has tided I hem
over the critical place! Mow barren
and lean our lives would be if stripped
of all thai our friends have done

It was during the early part of July,
100r?, that Mlsa Ilardln, thon on a visit
to Louisville, called up It. E. Hughes,
secretary of the Commorclal club, and
suggested homecoming week. It was
tier (irst visit to Kentucky for a long
time, and so overjoyed was she to be
back to her old Kentucky home, so
' pleasant did she find the renewal of
Its associations, that sho could not re
slst the desire to do something to bring
i the other Kentucklans back for a few
days at least.
When she called up the Commercial

Dividing the Horses

A certain merchant of Bagdad loft
in Ills last will and testament seven
teen horses to he divided anions hi*
three sons, according to the following
proportions?namely: The first was to
receive one-half, the second oue-tliinl
and the youngest one-ninth part of tin
whole, hut when they came to arrange
about the division it was found that t<;
comply with the terms of the will without
sacrificing one or more of the ani
luals was impossible.
Puzzled In the extreme, they repaired
to the cadi, who, having read the will
said that such a difficult question re
quired time for deliberation and recommended
them to return In two days
When they again made their appear
auce the judge said:
"I have considered your case and Out
that I can make such a division of the
seventeen horses among you as wii
; give each more than bis strict share
and yet not one of the animals shall b<
Injured. Are you content?"
"We arc, O cadi!" was the reply.
! "Iirlng forth the seventeen horse!

own horse with them. lie then bath
the oldest brother to count the horses.
"There are eighteen in number, C
cadi," he said.
"I will now make the division," re
spondeil the cadi. "You, the eldest, an
entitled to half; then take nine horses
You, the second son, are to receive one
third; take, therefore, six, while to you
the youngest, belongs the ninth partnamely,
two. Thus the seventeei
l horses are divided nmong you; yoi
have each more than your share, and

CHURCH KINDERGARTEN.
j , . _
.V I'liKior'N ? !;?? to Citable Motlicrn to
Attend Si>rvicoN,
Itev. Finis Idlcman, pastor of the
Christian church in Paris. 111., and one
-, of ?ho most progressive ministers <n
. the city, recently put into practice n
1 plan whereby mothers may come to
. church on Sunday and bring all the
(i children and not be caused any worry
! through fear that during the service
the conduct of the little ones may an;
uoy the pastor or the congregation,
j says a Paris correspondent of the St
> j Louis Post-I)lspatch.
He has secured the services of Visa
Rachel L. Hreiunienan of Bloomington,
111., one of the best kindergarten teach(
ers in the state, who, with the assist!
ance of a few of the women of the
church, has tilted up a room in the rear
of the edifice, where the children nre
taken during the progress of the scrv'
lcos nnd taught ns they would be in a
i kindergarteu.
[ Miss Ltrciumennu says she will make
i ber end of the work so attractive and
, profitable that the children will beg to
( .be allowed to attend the kindergarten
sessions. Thus the parents of the little
ones will not onlj' have no excuse
for not going to church and their chilt
dren's pleadings will supply an additional
incentive for their attendance.
I The kindergarten Is only for the children
who are accompanied to church
by their parents.
