"Because he la the highest type of tta Christian gentleman."

' j cletles. it seems that he has made the most of this Influence In this campaign. nod I was curious to discover] 'on my arrival here whether there was support from the church and semi- i f • religious elements In the country for ! the Kepublicau nominee. My arrival In this connection could . ' not have been better timed. As I entered the office of Mr. Tuft's private | ' secretary Friday I saw Bishop J. c. Hartzell of the Methodist Episcopal I ; church emerging from a conference with Mr. Taft. The bishop, I knew, has episcopal supervision over the work of his great church in Africa. I He has been so engaged for the past > twelve years and has met and formed the ai-qualntance of many leading men not only In Africa, but In Euro)>e and [ America. His acquaintance and Influ- , j enee within the Methodist church are . i second to those of few men. as he was for fifteen years an officer of the so- , clety which founded and now maintains a system of Institutions of learni lng among both white and colored I people In the southern states. He came to "induce Mr. Taft to make a speech | !n Chicago before a society of which the bishop's sou. Rev. M. c. Ilartzell, | Is president. It seemed odd to attempt to interj view a churchman of his prominence i ! on a political question at the bead- | quarters of the Republican candidate, ! ! but I asked him for bis view of Mr. [ I Taft and the support of him by Chris- I | dan people. He answered very readily : "The American people are to be congratulated upon the fact that whether ! Mr. Taft or Mr. Bryan Is elected pres i ldent of the United 8tates they will have a man at the head of the nation j who Is not only clean tn moral cbarac j te.-. but whose pen and speech and ex I ample are alwayB for the best Ideals - 1 of our civilisation as represented In the I , teachings of the Christian church." The bishop thought for a moment and then continued: "On some theo- ! logical points I differ from both. As ! a good Presbyterian I suppose Mr. I | Bryan assents to the doctrine of 'dli j vine decrees.' which teach that from 1 all eternity It has been fixed who ' should be saved and who should be | lost. I do not so read Scriptures. Mr. ' Taft. I understand. Is one of the Ed- ! ward Everett Hale type, believing that , Christ was a divinely perfect man I whose precepts and life on earth are , the key to man's salvation In time and r eternity. With the church 1 believe , that In that perfect man dwelt the dl- j • vine nature." r Applying bis discussion In a practi- i > cal way. Bishop Uartaell continued: j i "Which of these men I shall vote for | • will not be decided by their religious ' beliefs, but what they are as men and ' j by the principles and policies they | • 1 stand for in the administration of the i | government. 1 believe tbat In acting I , upon this view, as an American dtl- ] , zen. I am in harmony with the spirit | . and purpose of the founders of our re- i I public, who put Into the constitution ( that there sbopld be too religious test J as to qualifications to any office or-pub- ■ 11c trust under the United States.'

TIFT Life AM Rendered Valuable Service to Railroad Men. THE TOLEDO-ANN ARBOR CASE : Advice Given In Judg* Taft's Daemon . Adopted by the Railway Brotherhoods— Damocratic Politicians Use ; Trickery to Deceive the Toilers. The members of the various brotherhoods connected with thegreat rail road systems of the country are gen- ; e rally regarded as possessing more than the average degree Of intelligence. Their callings and the obliga- - Hons springing from those callings make the possession by them of a high order of Intelligence Indispensable. Notwithstanding this fact the same system of absurd falsehood Is relied on to deceive and trick them Into withdrawing their support from the Republican party that 1s in general use by Democratic politicians to Influence even the commonest and most Ignorant of the unskilled laborers of the country. One form which this system of trickery most frequently takes, is that of hinting at what terrible things Wil- ' 11am H. Taft did against labor organ- ! Izatlon and its members while he was ' on the 1/eneh. " : : ! The one official act and declaration ; of Judge Taft which to being used In . that way on railroad men to his deci- ; sion In what Is known as the. Toledo- . Ann Arqor case. Yet In that case ' through his decision Judge Taft rendered an actual, tangible and really ] Invaluable service u> the cause of lai>or organization. His advice given to labor ' organizations In that case has been « generally adopted by the various-broth I g erhoods and their members. One of i « the rules of a great labor organization. the Brotherhood of Engineers, which 2 was the cause of the trouble (rule '.-> I| has long since been voluntarily drop 4 peil as being contrary to the best Inter- 1 1 etas of both the public and the organ |4 ; lit ion itself. :j More than all that. Judge Taft's .1.- | ' I cisiou In the Toledo-Ann Arbor < use ! | | | contains as good, broad and sound la- ; | | bor doctrine as ever found Its way into J | I print. j Now. what was that Toledo-Ann Ar- j | bos case? Most enlightened railroad j < tnen know all about It. Many of them. % ! particularly the younger generation of 4 them, do not. j J A strike of locomotive engineers pre- j railed od the Toledo. Ann Arbor and j 1 North Michigan railway. One of the j rules of the brotherhood (rule 12> re- ] quired In substance that when so or- 4 dered by the head of the organization J the men of the brotherhood or other j roads should refuse to handle the - Mrs | of the road on which the strike pre- J vailed. 1 This rule was a dangerous one. It 1 probably never should have been 4 adopted. The attempt to enforce It In 1 this case brought eight or ten railroads 4 Into court They sought prelection j against what on Us face was a: least 4 an unwise policy for any body of men j to adopt and Involved In operation a 4 possible stoppage of the carrying com- ^ merce of the entire country. | It was a case of sympathetic strike, n 1 And the sympathetic strike stands to- ] j day. from choice, repudiated hy all re- ; sponsible organizations of laboring people and their members. The principal outcome of that Ann Arbor case was that the right of em- 0 ployees to leave their employment ^ whenever dissatisfied with Its condl- j tlons was fixed beyond all possible fu- _ ture questlbn and seme admirable advice given tfi the members of the organization. -to which they have faith- r fully lived up, both Individually and J 1 | collectively, since. e 1 "We wlrfh to make plain If we can." t said Judge Taft in his decision, to the - ; Intelligent and generally law abiding men who compose the Brotherhood of £ 1 Locomotive Engineers, as well as to I ■ their usually conservative chief officer. 6 what we cannot believe they apprecl- ' ate— that, notwithstanding their per- ' feet organization and their charitable. 1 temperance and other elevating and ■ most useful purposes, the existence and enforcement of rule 12 under their organic law make the whole brotherhood 1 a criminal conspiracy against the laws ( ' of the country." | ' That the rendering of this decision 1 by Judge Taft was. then. In result an ' I enduring service to all railroad men I Instead of embodying anything con ' | dieting with their rights and privileges : i before the law must appear plain to any ordinary man. If there still re- . 1 malned any doubt on that score It j ' would be removed by the reflection I that the rules laid down by Jndge Taft ' I ln>- that case are now made a part of '• ] the contracts and agreements of all ' j great railroad brotherhoods.
