STHE FORUM: THE RULE OF FAITH AND PRACTICE To The Editor:- By your kind permission I would like to supply the information which is sought by Mr. L. Garrick, in your issue of the 24th. The enquirer appears unable to un derstand how "Two good and learned men such as Rev. Ford and Gibbs, both messengers called of God to de liver the same message, are found radically differing about the message the Master sent them to deliver. The answer is very simple. We are human; not claiming "Infallibility" neither do we speak "Ex-cathedra," Against our goodness is only a re lative kind, hence we are liable to mistakes. If we were inspired in the same sense as the Apostles were, we might, or ought to harmonize in our The Pinery Minam, Oregon. GOOD FISHING Tents, Beds and Saddle Horses for Rent.

The fact however is very clear that Mr. Gibbs and myself do differ "Radically" at least on the question of Baptism, for the gentleman referred to publically claims that Sprinkling is a Biblical Mode of baptism, also that Infants are proper subjects for the same, which two claims I most solemnly aver that the scriptures do not teach. You will observe that the scriptures are recognized as the stand ard of test; one of us must be in error, no matter what our claims to scholarship and goodness may be. We have presented our evidence, and the Bible reader must decido as to who is in the right. I would say in the words of Paul; I speak as unto wise men judge ye what I say". Next my friend asks, "Please tell when and where he obtained the real, goods he speaks of and what were the conditions on which he was en trusted with them, and how he can justify his indifference regarding the attitude of the other fellow towards these real truths, whether 'he accepts them or not. "The Real Goods" I claim are the (Inspired teachings, known commonly as the "Word of God". Which are available to all. My use of that expression was for the purpose of contending for sound doc true, by making a contrast with what might be called by the merchant as "Shoddy Goods" which aire "Doc trines of men". Many of the doctrines and teachings to be found in the churches of our city are foreign to the New Testament order of things hence may be justly called Unreal.

As a christian man I am by virtue of the same a Priest of God. See 1 I'ctor 2:5, also Revelation 1:6. As to what you interpcrt "Indiffer ence" on my paTt, was not intended to convey such an extreme conclusion. What 1 really meant to teach was the childishness teachings arc questioned and held up to criticism. Some folks are very sensitive on church matters, and others are such victims of baser passions so as to become, bitter, cruel, and wrathful simply because they have been opposed in their church plans and policies; I mean to inform the reader that I would not dccend.dl7 cleaning process. to such ignoble methods in my min- istry, 'out taKe as well as give. To act the baby, does not help matters. I am not "Indifferent as to how the alien sinner treats the message. If I could get all the churches of this city to simply put aside their man made creeds, and ecclesiastical, un soriptural appendage, and just be christians, nothing more or less I would be glad to direct my footsteps to some other field. I believe our divine Lord intended that his people should be One in Faith and practice. Read John 17:20-23. 1 Cor:l:l-13. 3:1-8. I teach, preach, and write, on christian themes just because I have unbounded faith in Bible truths, and i believe they aire the wly rule , of faith and practice. H. L. FORD. Mr. Eastman on. the Water Question Editor of Observer: Will you kindly print the following in the Forum: I receivea my wutor bill and paid snme. It was $5.20.- I guess there is no question but what the metev read all right. I know the officials figuied it all rght, so I have no kick coming. However, I remember last year the officials "told us that this year we would have plenty of water after the new reservoir was put in. Now this year they pumped water out of the river and tell us the pipo line isn't big enough to carry the water from Beaver Creek. There is plenty of water up there all right, but the pipes will not carry it so we have to stay by the Bame old price per 1000 gallons. The of ficials couldn't figure out last year that the pipes wouldn't carry the water this year. No. The commission also let a five year contract to the Eastern Oregon for street lights. presumably to save $600.00. That little piece of work prohibits the city right now from putting in an electric light plant. Can't figure ahead one year you know. Yes, save us $600.00, but at the same time we are paying for street lights in La Grande over $1500.00 a year more than Baker City for the same wattage. You see our Commission gives the Eastern Oregon a contract for five year3 at a certain price to save us $600.00 in five years of $120.00 a year, but at the same time we pay $1500 a year more for street lights than Baker City that owns its own street light system. You will possibly say that I started out to kick about water. I just want to show how far sighted our comission is. Years ago we should have owned Beaver Creek, Morgan Lake and the whole system, been making our own lights and had our own water system with the privilege of the odd number ed houses using the water 3 hours each evening on the odd days and the evens on the even days for not to exceed $1.60 a month. La Grande charges more for water than any other city I know of. The charge (is all right for the minimum, but we j should have the privilege of using the water for our lawns and gardens certain hours on certain days in each month, and to use all tho water for those hoira that can come out ot the ' FOR SALE Farm Lands.

I can :mpcrt corn from Egypt cheaper than 1 can raise it with La Grando city watr. Of course I will be charged with the, crime of wastefulness.' On my hon as a man I save all I possibly could, for I am from an irrigation country where water comes high. But the way water is selling here a man should save the bath water to water the chickens in and on wash day use the Nr am I specially favored with a nicely deco:ated receipt high in the dollar marks for city water. Some bils are $8.00, some $6.50, some $4.50, and many over $5.00. One man is hauling gravel today to fix up his well so he can install a windmill and cut out the City of La Grande. I say put on a reasonable charge of say $1.50 per month during the ir rigation season and then let the odd numbered houses use the water for three hours in the evening on the odd days and the even numbered houses water on the even days for the snme time and then fine them for irrigating at any other time. This would give us 15 days in the month to irrigate for three hours per day. That will sufficiently irrigate any garden on an 80x100 foot lot and have plenty of water for 'baths, and other household use. Is anybody else in town with me in this idea. If so for heaven's sake speak. The city authorities have to know what the people as a whole want or they will stay in the same old ruts. I believe in being plain. E. W. EASTMAN, La Grande, Ore.
