The committee ot railroad executives headed by Mr. Prank Trumbull, representing thirty-five of the leading railroad systems (jf the nation, recently presented to President Wilson a memorandum briefly reviewing the dlf-

ucuuies now coutroncmg tne ranroaas ot the country and asking for the cooperation of the governmental authorities and the public in supporting railroad credits and recognizing an emergency which requires that the railroads be given additional revenues. The memorandum recites that the European war has resulted in general depression of business on the Amerii can continent and in the dislocation of credits at home and abroad. With i revenues decreasing and interest rates I increasing the transportation systems ; 6f the country face a most serious ! crisis and the memorandum is a strong presentation ot the candle burning at both ends and the perils that must ultimately attend such a conflagration when the flames meet is apparent to all. In their general j discussion the railroad represents I fives say in part: “By reason ot leg : islation and regulation by the federal government and the forty-eight states acting independently pf each other, as well as through the action of a strong public opinion, railroad expenses in recent years have .vastly increased Jko criticism is here made of the gen era) theory of governmental regula tion. but on the other hand, no ingenuity can relieve the carriers of ex penses created thereby.” President Wilson, in transmitting the memorandum of the railroad presidents to the public, character izes it as “a lucid statement of plain truth. The president recognizing the emergency as extraordinary, con tinuing, said in part: “You ask me to call the attention of the country to the imperative need that railway credits be sustained and the railroads helped in every possible way, whether by private co-operative effort or by the action, wherevei feasible of governmental agencies, and 1 am glad to do so because i think The need very real.' The conference was certainly a i fortunate one for the nation and the i president is to be congratulated foi opening the gate to a new world of effort m which everyone may co-oper-late. There are many important problems in our complex civiliKiticu that will yield to co-operation which will not lend themselves to- arbitrary rul ings of commissions and financing railroads is one ot them The man with the money is a factor that can not be eliminated from any business ; transaction and the public is an inter j ested party that should always be con i suited and happily the president has j invited al) to participate in the soluI tion of our railroad problems EHM ■ SHUTTERS ■ mors THHONE FLEECY STAPLE MUST PAY RANSOM INTO THE COFFERS OF WAR. Nation Rings With Cries of Stricken Industry. By Peter Radford Lecturer National Farmers* Union. King Cotton has suffered more from i the European war than any other agj ricultural product on the American ! continent. The shells of the belliger- ! ?ents have bursted over his throne, frightening his subjects and shatter ing his markets, and, panic-stricken, the nation cries out “God save the king!” People from every walk of life have contributed their mite toward rescue work. Society has danced before the king; milady has decreed that the ■ family wardrobe shall contain only i entton goods; the press has plead i with the public to “buy a bale”; I bankers have been formulating hold- ' ing plans; congress and legislative bodies have deliberated over relief I measures; statesmen and writers ; have grown eloquent expounding the inalienable rights of “His Majesty” and presenting schemes fpr preserv- , ing the financial integrity of the ’ stricken staple, but the sword of Eu- ! rope has proved mightier than the pen of America in fixing value upon this product of the suqpy south. Prices have been bayoneted, values riddled and markets decimated by the battling hosts of the eastern hemisphere until the American farmer has suffered a war loss of- $400,000,000, and a bale I of cotton brave enough to enter a r European port must pay a ransom of half its value or go to prison until the war is over. Hope of the Future Lies In Co-opera-tion. The Farmers’ Union, through the columns of the press, wants to thank the American people' for the friendship, sympathy and assistance given the cotton farmers in the hour of distress and to direct attention to cooperative methods necessary to per : assist the marketing of all farm products. The present emergency presents-as grave a situation as ever confronted the American farmer and from the viewpoint of the producer, wq»W seem to justify extraordinary relief measures, even to the point of bending the constitution and straining business rules in order to lift a portion of the burden off the backs of the fanner, for unless something is done to check the invasion of the war forces upon the cotton fields, the pathway of the European pestilence on this continent will be strewn with mortgaged homes and famine and poverty will stalk over the southland, filling the highways of industry with refugees,and the bankruptcy court with prisoners. All calamities teach us lessons and the nresenWcrisiß serves to illurniPAt 4 *

rre rraihies ot our marketing meti!ods and the weakness of our credit system, and out of the financial an guish and travail of the cotton farmer will come a volume of discussion and a mass of suggestions and finally a solution of this, the biggest problem in the economic life of America, if, indeed, we have not already laid the foundation for at least temporary relief. More Pharaohs Needed in Agriculture. Farm products have no credit and perhaps can never have on a permanent and satisfactory basis unless we I build warehouses, cold storage plants, I elevators, etc., for without storage and I credit facilities, Che south is comi pelled to dump its crop on the market < at harvest time. The Farmers’ Unions ■ in the cotton producing states have I for the past ten years persistently ad- ; vocated the construction of storage I facilities. We have built during this, ■ period 2,000 warehouses with a cai pacity of approximately 4,000.000 bales and looking backward the results would seem encouraging, but looking forward, we are able to house less than one-third of the crop and warehouses without a credit system lose 90 per cent of their usefulness. The problem is a gigantic one—too great for the farmer to solve unaided. He must have the assistance of the banker, the merchant and the government. In production we have reached the high water mark of perfection in the worlds history, but our marketing methods are most primitive. In the dawn of history we find agriculture plowing with a forked stick but with a system of warehouses under governmental supervision that made the Egyptians the marvel of civilization, for who has not admired the vision of Joseph and applauded the wisdom of Pharaoh for storing the surplus until ■temanded by the consumer, but in this age we have too many Josephs who dream and aot enough Pharaohs who build. ___ , POOR MAN.

SUNDAY-SCHOOL Lesson X.—Fourth Quarter, For Dec. 6, 1914. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Mark xvi, 1-8; Matt, xxviii, 11-15—Memory Verses, 6, 7—Golden Text, Luke xxiv, 5, 6. Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. The resurrection from the dead is the crowning event in all His work, jfor if Christ be not risen faith is vain, preaching is vain, no one is saved; there is no forgiveness of sins (1 Cor. xv, 14-18). But before we consider His resurrection we must look at some incidents in connection with His death and burial which we have passed over. Note the women who ministered to Him, who followed Him, who looked on afar off as He was crucified, who beheld where His dead body was laid and returned and prepared spices to anoint it when the Sabbath was past (Mark xv, 40-47; Luke xxiii. 55). They loved Him greatly, but did not believe that He would rise from the dead, so those spices were in a measure love’s labor lost because of unbelief. Note tbe pierced side, the blood and water with all their Scriptural suggestions and the fulfilled Scriptures about His being pierced and not a bone broken (John xix, 31-37; Zech xii, 10; Ex. xli. 46). The boldness of Joseph and Nicodemus at a time when all others seemed to fail, the new tomb, the loving ministry and the fulfilled Scripture concerning His grave being with the rich in His death are a fascinating record (Luke xxiii, 50-53; John xix, 38-42; Isa. liii, 9). It would appear from Matt, xxvii. 62-66, that some of the Pharisees remembered, as His disciples did not, that He had spoken of rising again after three days and therefore they had His tomb sealed. Our lesson i verses give us only the beginning of | the resurrection story. They tell us of i the coming of the women to the tomb ' very early in the morning on the first ; day of the week to anoint His body, I wondering who would roll away the ; stone for them. How often we find ' the stone which we thought would i hinder us rolled away when we reach I the place! We read of an earthquake I when He died, but this is another one at His Resurrection (Matt, xxvii, 54; xxviii, 2). Inanimate nature is moved by these events while the heart of man remains harder than the rocks. Some day ! we shall see these angels, whose counI tenances are like lightning and their i raiment white as snow, and we, too. shall shine as the sun (Matt, xxviii. i 3-4; xiii, 43). We should be reflecting i more of His glory now in these mortal : bodies (II Cor. iii, 18). How beautiful . it is that the first word from the angel to these devoted women was “fear ..not” or “be not” affrighted (verses 5, 6; Matt, xxviii, 5,6). So He Himself said to the other women after He had i appeared to Mary, as He allowed them to hold Him by the feet and worship Him, “Be not afraid; go tell My brethren” (Matt, xxviii, 9, 10). With similar words He spoke to the disciples in the upper room that evening, saying: “Peace be uuto you. Why are ye troubled? Behold my bauds and my feet that it is 1 Myself” (Luke xxiv, 36-40). Even though we fail and fersake Him He has only words of peace and comfort for us. Matthew and Mark speak of one angel; Luke ■and John sp-aak of two, but there is-no discrepancy, for if there were two there was certainly one, whether the disciples or women saw one or two.Neither is there any discrepancy in the seemingly different positions of the angels, for they can move about more easily than we can. The words of tbe angel concerning Jesus, “He is risen. He is not here” (verse 6), are sometimes used by ministers at a funeral concerning the dead, but that is a wrong use of the words, for they refer to the resurrection, not to Ibe burial of the body. How very gracious it was of the Lord to tell tbe angel to send by the woman a special message to Peter and then to give Peter a special persona! interview (verse 7; Luke xxiv, 34) after all his base denial of bis Master. It is always so—weakest lambs have largest share of their tender shepherd’s care. The angels reminded the women that Jesus had said that He would be crucified and the third day 1 rise again, and yet when the women told the disciples that He was risen their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not (Luke xxiv, 6-11). Mark xvi, 9, says that Jesus appeared first to Mary Magdalene, but the full record of that appearance is found in John xx. 1-17. Is not His appearing first to her another illustration of the same great truth that we saw in His giving Peter a special personal interview? She was blinded by tears of unbelief, but one word from Him opened her eyes. A peculiar thing in her case was His “Touch Me not" when He afterward allowed the other women to hold Him by the feet. To my mind the reason He gave her was clear and plain. “For 1 am not yet ascended to My Father” (John xx, 17). Another wonderful thing that on His way to His Father in His resurrection body as our high priest He should stop to speak to her and comfort her. Having ascended and returned. He could then let others touch and handle Him as He did the others and the disciples that evening. (To be continued—) Z — Call up the dentist, make an appointment, and save waiting. J. W.
