Western (Kan ) Spirit. Aclergyman at McPhersou has recently written a letter to the press acknowledging the courtesy of rail | roads in giving half fare permits to clergymeu and thereby coutributiug liberally to the cause. He eaye: “I now bave in my possession (be- ing traveling evangelist) annual half fare permite over eleven differ ent roads, and each of these permits contans the number of clergymen who have received like permits up to the date when mive was issued The ageregate shows in round num bers 56,734 preachers who are annu-| ally traveling over these roads at one half the regular fare. The rail road men give it to them ‘Then let | us see what they give. Suppose that each of us would pay these companies only ten dollars each year (and that 1s a very low estimate) the amount would be the handsome sum of $567,340 paid, or rather giv en, by railroad men to the support of religion. And this only represents a few of the many railroad systems, and ovly partially represents those few. Where ia there another corpo ration, orgainzation or church that gives so much toward the Lord's work annually?” Tho railroads of Missouri treat the ministers in like manner, with the exception of the M.K & T, which charges full fare.
