THERE IS NO MIDDLE GROUND.
No person of sound mind and instruct
ed in the principles of common honesty
can dispute the fact that the Oregonian
is right when it denounces such men
the Rev. Howard McQueary for remain
ing in the communion of a religious body
and drawing from it a salary for his sup
port after he has not only abandoned its
r peculiar doctrines, but commenced
teach others fundamentally opposite. In
such denunciation the Oregonian has it
all its own way, for no one would care to
. dispute a proposition so self evident as
that a man is dishonest who takes pay
from a church after he has abandoned
her doctrines. But the Oregonian must
not imagine that thousands of its read
ers do not enter a solemn protest when
such men as McQueary, Heber, Newton
and Dr. Briggs. waring the moral tur
pitude referred to, are held up as sam
pies of a class of men so deeply skilled
in the art of higher criticism, that they
are compelled per force to eliminate
everything of the supernatural from the
Christian religion. It is believed that
there are tens of thousands of clergymen
in the various orthodox denominations
who are just as deeply learned in Chris-
tion evidences and scripture critcism
the gentlemen referred to who nnd no
difficulty at all in. believing with their
whole heart that it is no truer that Jesus
Christ lived and died than it is true
that he also rose from the dead. It goes
without saving that with such men the
silly and illogical teachings of the Rob
ert Elsmere school have no place. They
believe Christ was the Son of God or he
was an impostor. There is no middle
ground.- Either his pretensions were
true or he was a deceiver. That he
.claimed to be divine in his origin and
being is beyond question. The same
evidence that proves that he lived,
proves that he taught, that there was no
salvation for the human race except
through him. "He that believeth on
the Son hath everlasting life and he that
believeth not the Son shall not see life
but the wrath of God abideth on him.
No sane man, apart from him, ever
made such pretensions as these. If they
are hot true they are the words of a mad
man. Herein lies the inconsistency and
mental obliquity of the Elsmere school
They would worship at the shrine of one
whom their logic makes to be an extrav
agant pretender. " They would compli
ment as the purest and holiest and tru
est man that ever - lived, as the one
forsooth the race should copy after and
imitate, one whose whole life, their own
logic would prove to be a living lie.
Theirs is not the Christ of scripture, and
they only are consistent who reject the
whole story or believe the whole.
THE DALLES AS A
POINT.
TERMINAL
If the' road' to the Fossil coal fields is
ever opened, as we fondly hope it will
be in the near future, The Dalles will
take a new start on the road to progress
such as she has never witnessed before.
The fine agricultural district through
' which the road must run no matter
what course it takes will make it a pay
ing investment from the start. The
road will have the tendency to develop
the resources of the country in a way
that nothing else can and The Dalles as
a terminal point will reap all the ad'
vantages of its unique geographicol posi
tion. But a road to the Fossil coal fields
with The Dalles as its terminus is not
- all nor half of all the possibilities that
may be in store for us, if proper exer
tions are made to secure them. The
' contemplated portage road around the
falls of Celilo ought to have its terminus
here also and every possible effort should
be made to have it here. We are far
from being satisfied that a road cannot
" be built around the falls, whether below
the bluff or south of it at a cost not
much greater than that of a similar
road on the Washington side. But even
if the cost was considerably greater it
would be fully offset by the superior ad'
. vantages it would possess. Such a road
continued across the Deschutes river
which it onght to be, and for that matter
on to Wasco in Sherman county or
further still, would command the entire
. . traffic of that magnificent agricultural
county. ' If it would be obliged to leave
the Columbia before or soon after cross
- ing the , Deschutes it would be a
simple matter to run an incline to
the . most convenient landing, and
thus secure the whole river traffic of the
country on both sides of the Columbia
. above Celilo. Thus a three fold object
would be affected, all the advantages of
a portage road, and as far as Sherman
county is concerned without so many
objectionable- handlings of freight as if
the portage was on the other side, would
be realized ; the road would command the
traffic of such a large district that it
would commend itself to capitalists as a
perfectly sure investment, and the advan-
tage of being the terminal point of the
system. The present time is peculiarly
- favorably for such a scheme, as far as
the road to Sherman county is concerned.
Portland and Astoria are clamoring for
an open river as well as the people east
of us. If we could show them - that a
road could be built from this city at a
reasonable cost that would serve not
only as a portage but would control the
trade of an immense . country south 'of
the river we would have no trouble in
procuring the money to build it.
RESTRICTION DEMANDED.
The results that have followed the
lynching of the eleven Italians at New
Orleans who were charged with being
accessory to the murder of Chief of
Police Hennessey begin to look serious.

cotteries of blood-thirsty Italians breath-

ally met the approval of tne very best
I people the world over. The Italian gov
ernment, if the dispatches are to be be
lieved, has perpetrated an act of open
hostility to the United States by recall
ing the Italian "minister at Washington
who, in turn, has demanded his pass
ports from the department of state, and
all because, forsooth, the king of Italy is
unsatisfied with the progress of the
adjustment, between the two countries
of the matter relating to the New
Orleans massacre. There is petulent j
impatience about this act of the Italian j
king more befitting the warm blood of i
the fiery emperor of Germany. To say
the least one wonld have expected more j
good sense from King Humbert. The
United States has shown no disposition
to be unfair or to shield wrong doing, if
indeed any wrong was done. There
does not seem to have been any unneces
sary delay on the part of this govern
ment in the progress of adjustment. To
thousands outside the diplomatic circle
there was really nothing to adjust. A
band of murderous cut-throats, had met
a righteous judgment at the hands of
peaceable and honored citizens, whose
only fault was that they did not offer up
the venal jury that acquitted them in
the same holocaust. So the king gets
mad and we suppose the next move on
the checker board will be to send a part
of his vaunted navy over here to demand
indemnity or something of that kind.
Alarming reports are current of Ameri
can citizens being arrested on Italian
soil and retained as hostages. This
is a game two can play at. If the king
wants indemnity we will gladly give him
the whole Mafia outfit, while if he per
sists in his unreasonable hostility, the
climate of some parts of this country
may become very unhealthy for ven
detta brigands. Meanwhile this govern
ment is learning a lesson from this New
Orleans affair that she will do well to
heed. The gates of Castle Garden have
swung too widely inward for these many
years. The line must be drawn some
where and sometime. We have no use
for a class of immigrants, whom we can
not punish, when they violate our laws,
without getting into a row with the
mother country. The man who is not
willing to assume the responsibilities of
American citizenship with all that that
words implies has no business here. If
we reject a Chinaman because he cannot
be assimilated, we must reject others
for the same reason. This country has
too long been the dumping ground for
the social offal of Europe. Politicians
have from time to time placed restriction
planks in their platforms but the dumps
still continue to grow larger, until this
Italian entanglement at last demands in
thunder tones that the thing ought to stop
and stop right soon. While the nation
will always regard with pride every for
eign American citizen who walks worthy
of his citizenship, no matter to what
race he belongs or what country gave
him birth, we have no use for men who
look to a foreign country for protection,
while professing loyalty to the United
States.
OUR
'BRILLIANT'
PORARY.
CONTEM-
The Times-Mountaineer of last evening
has the following :
The B. C. and L. B. organ heads its
columns -with the following: "The
Chronicle is the only paper in The
Dalles that received the associated press
dispatches," and in the second local col
umn publishes the following item of
newt, which occurres about ten years
ago: "Kobinson, the new governor
elect of Massachusetts, was sworn into
office on the 3rd inst. He was warmly
received at the state honse by his pre
decessor, Gov. Butler."
There was a time, not far distant when
the'"retired minister" who presides over
the columns of our contemporary, knew
the difference between newspaper cut
tings furnished by the excellent women
of the W. C. T. U. and an associated
press dispatch. As the brother receives
only scissors dispatches from the Chbon-
icle and Oregonian he may require to be
told that the Chkoniclk does not print
its dispatches in the W. C. T. U. col
umn, but on the first page of the paper,
near where he found the news about the
Italian minister having been recalled,
which formed the basis of his article on
that subject in yesterday's Timet-Moun-taineer.
But Mr. Michell does not re
quire to be told that he quoted from the
W. C. T. U. column, and that the words
quoted are but the preface to certain
moral reflections which follow, from the
lips of one of the governor's named, and
which plainly show the reason why the
paragraph was used. In this light, his
remarks are of such exceedingly bad
taste that among all the words within
the range of English literature we can
only think of one sufficiently all-embrac
ing to describe the man who could stoop
to write them and that word we shall
not defile our pages by printing.
PATRIOTISM VERSUS IRON-CLADS.
Now that Italy has got mad it may be
comforting to this country to learn that
the Italian navy consists of "ten first-
class Lron-clads, five steel war vessels and
fifty sea going torpedo boats, besides any
number of lesser iron-clads and wooden
ships of war." Well, she will need the
whole menagerie when she tackles Uncle
Sam. . If we have not an army or navy
we have men, money, stout hearts and
willing hands and enough of surplus
patriotism at present running to seed
among foreign born citizens of several
nations alone to take the contract of lick
ing any son-of-a-gun that dares to poke
his fist in our nose.
THE RETIRED MINISTER
PRE-
VARIACATES.
When the "retired minister" says
that the paragraph quoted by him from
the W. C. T. U. column of this journal
was published as news' the Chronicle
remarks that he is a disciple of Ananias
and he knows it.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, in one of his
charming essays, savs however much we
may disagree as to the other qualities of
a gentleman, all mankind agrees so far
as to unite in the negative postition that
he is not one who blows his nose with
his fingers. The mellow old doctor must
be wrong, if we believe the Des Moines
Register, for a few nights ago, at the
Grand Opera house in that city, Hon. J.
F. Willete, of Kansas, late candidate for
governor, in full view of his audience,
placed his index finger and thumb on
either side of his largest facial protuber
erance, and did, actually did, the act
the autocrat so earnestly deprecates.
Really, stories about the sockless Jerry
Simpson may not be slanders, after all.
i A Desperate Battle Between the Kloters ;
' and Guards at Frick's Coke Works.
i . i
' PiTTHBUttG, April 2. A desperate bat- I
tie is reported between strikers and the :
j armed guards at Moorewood this morn- j
1 ing at 3 o'clock. Three or four hundred I
j strikers approached the works of H. C. j
I Frick, and began to batter down the '
l gates. When ordered to desist they
i tired on the deputy sheriffs, slightly
wounding several. The latter replied
with the Remington rifles and killed
seven of the rioters instantly, while
many are wounded. The rioters have
cut the telegraph and telephone wires.
A private dispatch from Greensbnry
says that eleven men were killed and
twenty-seven wounded in the Moore
wood riot this morning. The dead
miners are all foreigners.
ANOTHER ACCOl'XT.
Farther
Particular of
Trouble.
the Rioting
Mt. Pleasant, Pa., April 2. At 2:45
this morning a mob of five hundred men
began rioting at the Standard works
They destroyed some of the company's
property and cut the telegraph lines so
that no warning could be sent to the
people at Moorewood. About 3, a party
marched to Moorewood.
In the meanwhile the wires were
hurriedly repaired, and word sent to
Moorewood that strikers would attack
the works in three places and had well
laid a plan to destroy the plant. The
sheriff was soon in readiness to receive
the attack and the men divided into five
parties, Captain Lanr having charge of
the party placed behind the big gate of
the barn and stable enclosure. As the
rioters passed the company's store they
raided it and marched to the barn and
attempted to break the gates. They suc
ceeded in doing it and as they entered
Captain Laur called out to them to halt
or he wouldfire. There was a rattling
volley fired by the raiders in the direc
tion of the deputies, some of whom were
seriously wounded. Captain Laur then
gave the word to fire and two volleys
were fired liefore the mob broke and
Eleven men fell dead in the road and
the wounded are estimated as high as
twenty-seven. The deputies who .took
part in the riot are experienced men,
armed to the teeth.
Last night Superintendent Pickard
told them that the raid was contem
plated on the works and presented each
man with a Winchester. "I have prom
ised protection," he said, "to our men
and I must give it to them when the
raiders come. Obey me. Fire the first
shot in the air, and then if they do not
retreat fire the second shot and keep
firing while you have ammunition.
Protect property, protect men at work
and protect your lives. Any man in
my employ who runs I will shoot dead ;
any man who is not willing to accept my
terms will please drop into the rear and
I will send him home under guard. Is
even-body satisfied?" asked the superin
tendent. "Yes, yes," rang out all along
the Line.
Each man was supplied with twenty
bullets. Some of the strikers say that
they had no intention of doing any dam
age, but marched to the works to intim
idate the men at work.
The dead were carried into the com
pany's store at Morewood. The strikers
demanded the bodies but wre refused
and the piace is now surrounded by an
armed mob of 2000 men, who say they
will burn everything on the premises
unless the dead bodies are given np.
The feeling is very bitter among the
workmen who denounce the action of
the deputies in no uncertain terms.
THE SITUATION IN ROME.
Our Minister Pleading Patience.
A
Poor April Fool Joke.
Rome, April 1. In official circles
it is Etated that the Italian minister at
Washington has not cabled anything
decisive to the government regarding his
recall. The American minister here, A.
G. Porter, yesterday requested the Ital
ian government to be patient for a few
days, explaining in detail the obstacles
existing in the United States to a speedy
settlement of the . question involved by
the New Orleans lynching.
Rumors circulated in the United
States that a number of Americans were
detained here as ; hostages for future
treatment of Italians in the United States
is classed as an April fool day joke of very
bad taste. Public opinion here is await
ing the issue of the negotiations in a
most tranquil frame of mind.
The newspapers of this city pronounce
themselves very' strongly against the
action of the United States government.
Influential Italians advise the Italian
government to send a circular note to
friendly powers denouncing the United
States as being confessedly unable to in
sure justice;
The cabinet will meet today and will
resolve upon what further steps are to
be taken in the New Orleans matter.
In the course of an interview
today
with an associated press correspondent,
Marquis Di Rudini said : "Personally I
am most kindly disposed toward the
United States government" and ex
pressed the hope that the civil authori
ties of the United States would not fail
in their duties toward society, lustice.
morality and law. "Public opinion,
however," he added "Demands a more'
energetic course of action." "If the
United States government," he continued
"does not perceive it is in the wrong a
diplomatic rupture is unavailable."
Continuing the Premier said: "Re
port that Americans have been insulted
and arrested in Italy as the outcome of
the present negotiations are " ridiculous
and false. Americans always receive
here, the best and kindest hospitality,
both upon part of the Italian government
and the Italian people, both knowing
perfectly the duties of a civilized coun
try. The pressure brought to bear upon
Premier Marquies Du Rudini and which
has compelled him to act vigorously,
is fomented by friends of Siguor Crispi,
late Premier of Italy.

The Resureection.
Now upon the first day of the week,
very early in the morning, they came
unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices
which they had prepared. And they
entered in and found not the body of the
Lord Jesus.
And as they were much perplexed
about it, two men stood by them in
shining garments. They said unto the
women, Why seek ye the living among
the dead. He is not here but is risen.
And they returned and told all these
things unto the eleven, and to all the
rest. It was Mary 'Magdalene, Joanna
and Mary the mother of Jesus, and other
women weie with them.
Then the same day at evening, when
the disciples were assembled, Jesus
stood in the midst of them and said :
Peace be unto you, and saith unto thein,
Receive ye the'Holy Ghost.
And when he had spoken these things,
while they beheld, he was taken up and
a cloud received him out of their sight.
St. Luke.
Easter Day.
The name Easter is belie ed to be de
rived from the Saxon-deity Eostre, whose
festival was celebrated "in the spring,
about the same time as the Christia'n
feast. Oster signifies "rising," and the
name is supposed by some to have come
from that word, EaAter leing the feast of
the Resurrection.
Easter is observed among all Christian
people, as the anniversary of the great
event of the resurrection of Christ. He
is dead, but returned to life. The egg is
taken as emblematic of a return to life.
It is to all appearance dead, but we know
that if placed under proper conditions,
life will come forth from it. The use of
eggs at master was auopiea irom an
usage older than our era. it was tne
custom, in very early times, to celebrate
the return of spring bv making presents
W- . .

and the children play, and the world

Mothers.
The Lord gave the word ; the women
who publish the glad tidings are a great
host.
Instinct leads the brute-mother to
protect her young by the sacrifice of her
life if necessary. Blind instinct might
allow the mother to crush her little one
to death in too close an embrace. Edu
cated parental love is needed for the best
good of the child. The more intelligent
the mother is the more tender is her
heart toward neglected or abused
children.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning voiced
the cry of London's toiling children, till
England was aroused. .
When mother love strives to right
some wrong against the home, she comes
right up to a stone wall which legisla
tion alone can remove. Hearts and
brains are powerless without ballots.
Persistent work on this line tells on the
education of our people. We look for
results.

The Anti-Nuisance Leagne.
The following was referred by the Na
tional executive committee of the W. C.
T. U. to the general officers, and by them
signed and forwarded to the Anti-Nuis-anee
League in New York.
The recent decision handed down by
Judge Field, of the United States su
preme court in the California case, seems
to emphasise the subject matter of the
resolutions.

crime injurious to society is an outrage

Robinson,' the new governor-elect of
Massachusetts, was sworn into office on
the 3rd inst. He was warmly received
at the state house by his predecessor,
Gov. Butler. The new official evidently
means business. In his inaugural ad
dress he urged a more general enforce
ment of the registration laws, and also
of that relating to traffiic in intoxicating
liquors. He censured the facilities for
obtaining divorces. Akin to this are the
following utterances of his address :
Adventurers and visionaries may try
to set labor and capital in bitter hostilty",
,stir np bad blood among citizens and di
vide all the people into envious and an
tagonistic classes, but they are only in
stigators of mischief, and the greatest
enemies to those whom they profess to
aid. All the statutes relating to hours
of labor, employment and schooling of
children, intimidation of laborers and
kindred subjects should be strictly en
forced. If they are not expressive of
the judgment of the people, let their re
peal come regularly.,
Sam Jones in a recent sermon declared
that he was no more to blame for being
a prohibitionist than for being a chris

The Italian Minister Demands His Pass
ports. Washington, March 31. Baron Fava
has presented to the state department
his recall by the Italian government and
has demanded his passports. The de
partment was greatly surprised because
it was wholly unexpected and because
the investigation into the New Orleans
matter was not completed.
The reason for the recall is that the
king of Italy is dissatisfied with the
progress of the adjustment between the
two countries in regard to the New Or
leans massacre.
This action can be construed into no
other way than an act of open hostility
on the part of the Italian government to
the United States with which it has here
tofore been on friendly terms.
Blaine Refuses to Talk.
Washington, March 31. Blaine has

The Arrest of Americans Has Keen
Wholesale.
Washington, March 31. It is now re
ported around the state department that
it was at Florence that the eighteen
Amerii ans were thrown into prison in
stead of Rome, as first rejortd. It is
also said that others have suffered the
same fate in Italy. In all cases the
Italian officers have refused to give im
prisoned persons any reasons for their
arrest.
