BRINGING NEARER NEW ERA Prof. Charles Ziieblin Lectures ' to His Students. . HITS BLOW AT ORTHODOXY Says It Hinders Right Thought in Religion, Politics and Social Lire Declares Nation Toys With Real Liberty. CHICAGO. Aug. 8. (Special.) John D. Rockefeller, J. P. Morgan and E. H. Harriman are the greatest friends" of Socialism in America, according to Pro fessor Charles Zueblln. the University of Chicago sociologist, says the Record Herald. That the industries built up by these men will result in the reign of Socialism In this country was the professor's prediction In a lecture or "The Constraint of Orthodoxy" yester day at the university. Professor Zueblin declared that the great capitalists are furthering a So cialistic era to a fat greater extent than the confessed Socialists, who ht.rm their cause by constant agitation. The Government eventually will find It easy to take over the industries o'. such men as Rockefeller. Morgan and Harri man, he told the students. Orthodoxy in religion, economics, pol itics and society was scored by the professor as "cowardice." He flayed popular standards in religion, the "aa credness" of the American Constitu tion and adherence to social conven tions, declaring that shirt sleoves should be as proper at dinners as the "claw-hammer." Reul Friends of Socialism. "The real friends of Socialism today are Rockefeller, Morgan and Harriman, . men who are organizing great Interna tional Industries," said the professor. -'Eventually. It will be a comparatively eVsy malter for the Government to ' tatke these industries ''over. ''The Socialistic zealots are enemies ''tojthclr creed, as compared with thes men. Th man who conceives his mls ' siofT f be to get up whenever oppor tunity ffers aid say that Socialism is the only thing that will save' society Is retarding evolutionary Socialism The people who are trying to be altru istic, trying to keep their mind" open and ready to accept a modified new society, are the ones who are forcing us into new lines of thought, and not the people who get up with their shib boleth and hope by saying a few mystic words to steer the masses who hav not thought the thing out. "When the Standard Oil Company had Imposed on it a great fine the otsher day it was following popular drift when its defense was that 'everybody does It.' This Is the defense for all kinds of business "chicanery." Many business men have made the same defense for Banker Walsh, who happened to be caught, although It was maintained that 'all the other bankers were doing the same thing." This defense is one of the results of economic orothodoxy." Talks About Politics. In discussing "political fallacies,' Professor Zueblln said: "The Unlteu States Constitution is to many of us as sacred as the NIcene or the Apostles' creed. The framers. ot the Constitu tion did not believe the American reo ple could govern themselves. So they evolved a system of checks, and since that time the people have not governed themselves. The worst fault of the Constitution is that it Interferes with spontaneity. "It Is a misfortune to be ruled by an autocrat, a benevolent despot. It is very much better to have a petty ward politician in the Mayor's chair, as we have, than to be governed by a one man power. "Class consciousness is the most con spicuous article of faith of the econo mic orthodoxlsts, not of the great un washed, but of leading people. The con ception of liberty in this country Is one of our great and precious heritages, but we play with It a great deal. We are considerably muddled to know Just how much the law ought to Interfere. "Many people would much rather aban don their religious faith than omit any of the social amentttles. Why should not a man go to dinner , in his shirt sleeves Instead of claw-hammer If he Is more comfortable that way? It's the ortho doxy of conventionality that we all sub scribe to. It seems strange that In a country like America there should not be more of fatherhood and motherhood in the home Instead of mastership and mistress-shlp. Our social position must be shaky, to say the least, when we are so reluctant to let our daughters learn to sew and cook. Orthodoxy of Fashion. "In'social life the orthodoxy of fashion prevails. Shop girls dress as the leisure class dictates, regardless of the conven ience and comforts of their work and station. The leisure class is just as in fluential in this country as it Is In Eng land, if not so well defined. But the one In -ngland will do Just as well, because It sets our standards for us. and we bow down before It. The artificial standard that it sets up we try to Imitate, even In the clothes that we wear. "We have a class which has nothing to do tut think about where It shall live and how it shall spend it. leisure. Tet If we have no right to -emand i. at a man stand on his own feet and prove his own worth In .the world. Irrespective ..f Vtiere or with whom he lives, can we ex pect independence of rel-glous thought? "Take the orthodoxy a ut the race ISM question. Whites cannot concede that any belief more liberal than theirs is cor rect. Our orthodoxy won't swallow the idea that the negro Is a man. I see lit tle hope of the solution of the race prob lem because of this intense race ortho doxy. Nobody has a right to assur-e to despise the Chinese. One must be hum bled in the presence of such a rac;. Some will say that they like "he Japanese bet ter because they happen to know a few Japanese university students an. - few Chinese laundrymen. It Is better to be long to a yellow race than to degenerate one. and we have degenerate representa tives In the white race. Good in Two Parties. "There is a political orthodoxy, and we call that loyalty. Loyalty to some petty political party, of which he knows no more than that his father belonged to It, Is the test of some men's conception of political science and the art of self government. The existence of two great political parties of this country Is as good an example of orthodoxy as th Methodist and Baptistchurches in re ligion. There must be two parties with slight differences In order to put men Into office. "The most repugnant expression of or thodoxy Is the continuance of the wor ship of the tribal deity. This Is seen In the worship of the Anglo-Saxon deity during the Boer war, . In the invocation of the Kaiser when he sent his troops to w'' h. its ENGLISH HOME OF JOHN HARRINGTON. John Harrington, known far ana wide as the "Latrd of Pillar Rock," has purchased fnur acres and a mansion house at AlnwickNorthumberland County, England, and has announced his Intention of retiring from the fish-packing business on the Columbia River and spending the rest of his life at his new home. Mr. Harrington began life as a sailor and 40 years ago arrived in the Columbia River. He located on a ranch at Skamokawa and operated a sailing schooner on the Columbia River. Later he went Into the fish packing business with Everding & Farrell at Pillar Rock, and has been located there constantly for the past 27 years. China, In the devotion to the Russian deity as shown by the attitude of the Czar. This is dragging down the infinite to the basis of jingoism, and in suppos edly civilized countries. "The ordinary person cannot give a reason for his devotion to a religious be lief. He Is orthodox In it, that's all. He Is devoted to his devotion. There were people who listened with great delight to Ingersoll's lecture on the mistakes of Moses, who would have pulled out what hair ne had left If he had lectured on the mistakes of McKinley. Men scoff at the story of the golden leaves forming the basis of the Mormon belief, when they can't produce the tables of stone on which were written their ten command ments." EVIDENCE OF A CRIME PORTIONS OP WOMAN'S CLOTH ING BESIDE BLOODY POOL. San Diego Police Believe Murder Has Been Committed Threat- . ening Note Also Found. SAN DIEGO. Aug. 14. Finding por tions of a woman's clothing torn and blood-smeared on the outer end of the Santa Fe dock at a late hour last night, with wisps of a woman's hair lying near a pool of blood, has caused the local po lice to suspect that a tragedy has been committed there. A woman's garter and a black leather purse were also found. In the pocket book was a note reading, "Dear May: Meet me tonight at the old place at S P. M. If you do not, I will fix you and him both. Believe me I am in dead earnest. So long, my otice little Sweet heart. B. K." A line of blood spots from the place where the evident struggle had been car ried on to the edge of the wharf led to the suspicion that a murder had been committed and the body thrown Into the water. Divers are Investigating that portion of the theory. CRASHES INTO A FREIGHT Express Train ' Upsets Cattle Car, Killing Many Three Men Hurt. SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 14.

REFORM TICKET ISTI T Sweeping Victory Gained Ryan Faction in San Francisco. by DARK DAY FOR GRAFTERS Herrln and Harriman Interests Lost Control of Party at Pri maries Labor Party Still for Schmitz. SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 14.-The pr. mary election In this city yesterday re- iluivIPHAN 'LAIRD OF PILLAR ROCK" BUYS HOME - P X suted in a sweeping victory for the Re publican League or Ryan ticket, which stood for earnest support of bribery-graft prosecution and the present Mayor and Supervisors. The opposing forces, led by Postmaster Fiske, elected not more than 14 delegates to the party convention, which will consist of 149 delegates. The result Is a notable triumph for the reform element. Casey Faction Defeated. The regular Democratic ticket was vic torious and will control Its convention, the fight between the Bylngton-Mahoney faction and the old McNab organization resulting In a victory for the old order. The" Democrats cast a few more votes than In previous primaries, but their showing Is not impressive. The radicals carried the' day for the Union Labor party, Casey and his anti graft policy losing In every district in the city. With this victory for the radi cal element In the labor party, Schmitz is looked upon as their nominee for Mayor. Crushing Blow to Herrln. The Republicans cast the heaviest vote of the three parties, and the victory of the Ryan League Is a sweeping one. Postmaster Fiske and the faction backed by the Herrln and Hariman Interests have been delivered a crushing blow. Ryan . refuses to say that he will be tne "candidate for Mayor or ' that Dis trict Attorney Langdon will be renomi nated. In an interview he Is quoted as saying: New Birth to Party. "Our victory means this one thing definitely, howeverr It means opposition to Southern Pacific and railroad control of the Republican party. We have got the control In San Francisco away from the railroad and we intend to keep the party clear of that Influence. This vic tory means a new start for the Repub lican party. Henceforth the people will control the party's affairs. The organiza tion of the party will rest with the con-, vention on September 17."

Wick, of Valparaiso, Indiana, has been chosen as head of the business department In the Pendleton High, School, to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Professor W. M. Chrlstensen. No successor has yet been secured for A. E. Harrison, who recently resigned as principal of the High School. Monday, September 9, is the date that has been set for the opening of the Pen dleton schools. This is about one week earlier than usual, but It Is thought that it will prove more satisfactory to open a week early and thus enable the schools to close up the work of the year before the warm weather begins in June. HOLD WHEAT FOR RAISE Umatilla County Farmers Jfot Dis posed to Sell at Offers. PENDLETON. Or., Aug. 14. (Special.) More than 200,000 bushels of new crop wheat has been sold in Athena at prices ranging from 69 to 71 cents. - Practically the entire amount has been purchased by the Preston-Parton flour mills, as they are offering a few cents more per bushel than are other grain-buyers. While some wheat has been secured by Pendle ton buyers, the amount Is comparatively small, the farmers having shown a dis position to hold for a better price than that offered so far this season. Harvesting is being carried on more successfully today than any time since the rain of last Thursday and farmers express the hope to complete the reason r without any further delay. Many 50 and SO bushel yields continue to be reported from the Athena and Helix sections and IN ENGLAND 4 , I ! I 1 bumper yields are also being harvested on the reservation, but the renters, anx ious to secure the land as cheaply as pos sible, refuse to give any figures. It Is known, however, that some of the largest yields In the county will be from reserva tion farms. ADMITS HE FIRED DEPOT Brakeman at Boulder Responsible for Awful Accident. BOULDER. Colo., Aug. 14.
