REASOXS FOR BIBLICAL

Doctor J. D. Gillllan Will
' Point Out Reasons,
Which Are Apparent.
Dr. Gillllan will Sunday morning
how some causes leading to the de
mand for translation of the Bible, and
why new versions were ordered by the
rnwC iicouom wuu are laminar with
the New Testament and the Sermon
on the Mount will have to think, a lit
tle before the following s:ems clear
to them. It is from the WJekliffe ver
sion made early in the fourteenth
century. By turning to Mat. t. begin

understood:
"And Jhesus seynge the peple went
up Into an hll, and whanne he was
set his desclples camen to him. And
he optnyed his mouthe and taught

"BleBsld ben pore men in spirit, for

"Blessed ben thei the ben of dene
herte; for thel schalen se God.
"Blsssed ben pesible men; for thel
schalen be' clepid Goddes children."
In TIndale's version of 1525. the fol
lowing from Ephesians 11. 13 ff. seems
little better than the foregoing, al
though all of two centuries lat.r.
We could scarcely cull It F.iwHh
all; but that is a sample of our mother
tongue of that day. We are glad they
revised:
"13. But-nowe in Christ Iesu, ye
whyche a whyle agoo were farre off,

"Dllley was at first Inclined to take
ftie part of the Institution In tnis con
troversy," said Gibbs today, "until he
heard that governor Wen was scpon-
irlMe for the employment ,i;f the ne
groes. He gained this infoirarUP-.a
tr rough a small hole in the Avail of
his room, which happt-nel to be neMt

hrough conversations liet'.wcn t)r
Evans and other officials .uiri th n he
decided to Join the beW'gerents and
eifned the remonstraniv. These "r.e
groes, as I understand It., secured th
positions through the governor., i
understand that Lynthcomb used to be
a chef on a dining car when the gov
ernor was. railroad commissioner, and
when he became governor the nero
and his wife secured the positions.
"On the remonstrance we secured 19
names and there are 16 of these who
have threatened to walk out unless
the negroes leave. During the time
when the negroes have been at the
asylum white girl attendants have
been compelled to sort over ttmlr
clothing for the laundry, and I rebell
ed against it."

WAGE RACE WAR.
Salem Asylum Employes Balk at Hut.
mi? Jegroea ar.
A Sal m special says: Race pre
judice has been fomenting at the Ore
gon State Insane asylum since last
Friday. It resulted In the discharge of
two attendants at the cottage farm
and In threats from 16 others that
they would resign unless certain ne
gro help was discharged and brought
out statements to the eeffct that Gov
ernor West was responsible for the
employment of the negroes who have
caused all of the trouble.
James Lynthcomb and wife, negroes
were added to the force of asylum em
ployes last Friday. When they were
taken to the main building Friday
noon and placed at, one of the tables
with the attendants who were dining.
several attendants walked out of the
room.
The negroes were then taken to the
cottage farm, a part of the Institu
tion, where the woman was placed In
the dining room .and a position In the
engine room was given the man. The
man, It Is said, was transferred later
to the position of night watchman.
When the negroes were received as
employes at the cottage farm an Im
mediate protest was heard and W. J.
Glbbs, one of the attendants, began
circulating a remonstrance, which
read:
"We, the employes of the asylum
farm, consider It an Imposition and
disgrace to have colored people occu
pying the positions that they do and
we object most strenuously.
This was signed by 19 of the at
tendants, according to Gibbs. who
headed the remonstrance.
This remonstrance was forwarde.lt o
the asylum officials and as a result.
Gibbs and Supervisor Dilley were dls-
