(Written for Thb Times.) T,no glorious Kingdom of Heaven foretold By Moses and Daniel nnd prophets of old, To come to tho nations to bless and to save, In ages long aftor they rest In their graves. The voice of the Baptist, its coming declares, And for Its reception a peoplo pre pares. To Abraham's children announces tho King, ' Who is soon to be crowned where th Cherublms sing. But th'e tyrants of Galilee soon sil enced tho voico That had made the sad daughter of ZIon rejoice. Tho propUet of Judea is laid in his grave Who. annbunced first the advent of the mighty to save. But tho voice of another is soon heard in the land Announcing the Kingdom of God Is at hand. A mightier than prophets proclaiming to men The message to John told again and again. But JesuB is also delivered to men; Is crucified, buried and rais:ed up again. He meets and commissions his heralds to preach With earth as their circuit all na tions to teach. He ascends to his father, tho ancient of Day's, Receiving his Kingdom and glory and praise. The spirit comes down and announces the same With remissions of sins in Emman uel's name. Our Lord's cruclflers now hear Peter preach, The crucified Jesus commanding to each Repent, bo baptized In his blessed name, Remission of sins obtain through tho same. Tho reign of the King in his king dom begins Through Jesus is preached forgive ness of sin, To all who receive Him rejoicing in God, The path of tho Just by tho martyr is trod. Cornelius, the good man in word and deed, Though not a descendant of Abra ham's seed, Hears the message and enters the Kingdom on earth, When water and spirit completes the new birth. And so to all nations tho world around, Goes the message from Heaven, "God's word is not bound." They hear it, bellevto it, obey and re- poice; Like tho Eunlch and Jailor with heart and with voice. But the gospel of JesuB Jehovah's own plan To rescue from ruin his jioor creature man, Has long been perverted and hidden from view, By human traditions and nations un true. Its messago is simple, its burden is light, Believe, forsake evil, turn to tho right; Confess with' the mouth, God's own bl'essed Son, And ho will confess you. the angels among. Down Into tho water then go with tho Lord, As ho has directed In his Holy Word, And rise to oboy Him as long as you live. Eternal salvation from Him to re ceive. Your lions girth truth your breast plate tho right. Feet shod with the gospel of peaco In his might. Faith's Shield and Salvation's strong helmet your sword, Tho sword of tho Spirit God's Holy Word. Bo strong in tho Lord and tho power of his Might, Livo Godly in Jesus, shnn evil, do right, Then Ho will Uo with you and guide you always, And glvo you tho palm and tho crown at that day, C. B. W.

VOTERS Dally it is becoming apparent that there is a disposition on tho part of certain individuals to overthrow the primary election law and statement No. 1 thereof. Those who are lend ing themselves to this conspiracy are not very numerous, but aro noisy, and public attention should therefore be called to tho Issue their noiso In volves. In the palmy days of Oregon's po litical machine, of which they were Integral parts and benefactors, these conspirators were the political usurp ers In the politics and government of the Btte. On their part it re quired no recognition of right from wrong, no adherence to civic de cency, no devotion to ethics, no sense of honesty, no regard for or knowl edge of the fundamental powers, rights and duties of American citizen ship to be political bosses. All they needed, all they had, was of their own creation tho party halter and the party lash, and these sufficed for tho domination and manipulation of a half enfranchised electorate whose responsibility was shifted by the party from the individual to the Irre sponsible party boss; the party as sumed for itself and its boss the as sumption of tho king, "The King can do no wrong." The names of Oregon's machine politicians, living and dead, rise In the memory of tho peoplo as witness es to this truth. But those now liv ing and who would revitalizo In or der to oranment and adorn Oregon's political past putrescence havo no conception of tho power of a com pletely enfranchised people, thor oughly awakened to their own place and their fundamental importance in the scheme of government. The pretext for justification upon which this anti-Statement No. 1 con spiracy is based is tho assertion that the primary law destroys party or ganization, and, therefore upon such pretext, is predicated an appeal to party prejudice as the means to the end of overthrowing the law. If "machine" is meant by tho term "party organization," and party or ganization has no other or higher meaning than the concept of a mechanism of Individual human units unquestlonlngly obedient to a boss' will, then, yes, it not only destroys party organization, but it. ought to destroy it in the interest of free citi zenship and common decency. Let us try this issue out again be tween the would-bo party bosses, big and little, and the electorate, to finally determine whether tho boss shall furnish us with our party faith, our party platform and our party nominees for public office, or whether tho rank and file of tho Republican electorate, holding in common among themselves Republican beliefs and opinions, shall do these things under the provisions of the law they them selves enacted. In response to tho frantic appeals to party prejudice invoked against tho primary law and. Statement No. 1, it is well to call attention to the fact that Lincoln said this nation had been brought forth and dedi cated to tho proposition that all men are created equal; that tho civil war was fought to determine whether it or any other nation so conceived and so dedicated could long endure. And ii the dedication of the battlefield of Oettsyburg, he said: "It is rather for us to be here dedicated to tho great task remaining before us, that from these honored dead wo take In creased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion, that wo have highly re solved that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation, under God, shall have a now birth of free dom, and that government of the people, by tho people, for the people, shall not perish from tho earth." Ho never said party once. President Roosevelt has said: "A party is of worth only In so far as it promotes the national Interests, and every officer, high or low, can serve tho party best by rendering to the people tho best service of which he Is capable;" properly recognizing the peoplo, and not the party, as the sov ereign power. Washington, in his farewell ad dress, said: "Let me warn you In tho most solemn manner of the bane ful effects of tho spirit of party gen erally. This spirit, unfortunately, is inseparable from our nature, having its roots in the stronger passions of the human mind. It exists under dif ferent shapes in all governments, more or less stifled, controlled or re pressed, hut In those of the popular form It is seen in Its greatest rank ness, and is truly their worst enemy. . . All obstructions to tho exe cution of laws servo to organize fac tion, to give it an artificial and ex traordinary force; to put In place of tho delegated will of the nation the will of a party, often a small but art ful and enterprising minority of the community, and, according to tho al ternate triumphs of different parties, to make the public administration the mirror of Ill-concerted and lncongru- TO THE TOLD IN A WORD. 4 Sparrows hate blue. Hot water drinking cures insom nia. Tho Incubator is an Egyptian in vention. Tho unvaccinated may not vote In Norway. Tho word "bosh" is Turkish and means "nothing." A wild elephant can scent an en emy at a dlstanco of 1,000 yards. Pianos aro provided for tho in mates of the London almshouso of Lambeth. To educate a boy at an English public school, such as Eton or Har row, costs at least $1,500 a year. Over 15,000 people, practically all tho Inhabitants of Markneuklrschen, In Saxony, are engaged In violin mak ing. A grain of pure musk will scent a room for 20 years, and at tho end of that time will apparently not havo lessened In tho least In weight or odor. Women rodo astride till Anne of Bohemia's times. Sfho being de formed, had to uso a side saddle, and the women of her court) to flatter her, adopted a saddle of the same awkward make. ous projects of faction, rather than the organ of consistent and whole somo plans digested by common counsels and modified by mutual in terests." I have made these quotations for the purpose of holding up tho mirror to those "calculating Republicans" who are howling for party organiza tion, by which they mean only party machine, and who aro vainly seeking to rehabilitate It by overthrowing tho primary elections law and Statement No. 1 as the means by which politics may be restored to them as a busi ness. Neither Statement No. 1 nor the primary elections law Is tho perfect Instrument of government that their advocates and defenders desire; but they havo proven as reasonably ef fective as their hampering environ ments will permit, and have given life and potency In Oregon, at least to tho public demand for the elimina tion of the boss and his machine from party control, and have provided In this state for the exclusion of Ore gon's United States senatorships from tho auction block at Salem. As pointed out many times before, Statement No. 1 does not pretend to penalize disobedience to Its mandates by tho Infliction of corporal punish ment In goods or person, nor in any manner to contravene tho statutes and the constitution, but what It aims to do and what it does, is by legal I methods to define specifically the pop- I ular will in a given matter and to J keep constantly before the legislator j. the essential fact that ho Is nothlnffiT more than a public servant, tempor-M arlly clothed with authority to exe- I cute the popular will as It may be manifested to him in an authoritative form. Tho men who were Instrumental in engrafting upon the political system of Oregon this desideratum aro in the very highest sense of tho term Re publicans by nature, the character of whose achievements demonstrates ex actly where they belong and where they would have been in tho days of Lincoln and the civil war. But Ore gon's gain by this development of civil government Is not all her own. Tho example it affords to other state3 in the way It points out tho way of escape from Intolerable abuses grown up under tho machine and boss sys tem of politics, is not being lost in tho great sisterhood of American commonwealths. Many of them aro even now in Titanic struggle with tho potential powers that dominate their eir 39tl re- cs-1 it governments, endeavoring to wrest themselves from machine control pre paratory to the next step for the res cue of their senatorial elections from enln n. n.intlnn oiic Ul auuiiuui i I advise my friends and conwu ents In Oregon, in their own interest, in tho Interest of cleaner politics, in tho interest of true Republicanism, in tho Interest of completely enfran chlsed and ideal American citizen- ship, to vote for Statement No nominees only for the legislature in! tho Republican primaries in April; tel vote only for Statement No. 1 noml inees in the June election, and to votJj for their party nominee for Unlte States senator. In Oregon the kea to continued triumph for Republlca party principles, In the rule of th sovereign people, as exemplified Lincoln and Roosevelt, Is the pe petuatlon of our primary electlo law and Statement No. 1.
