SlX.MoSTHS I" Thukk Months M THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1903. Jonathan Bourne, Jr., the man whose strength was very apparent as a candidate for the United States senate from Oregon, was horn February 23. ISoti. at New Bed ford, Mass. He came to Oregon in May 1878, and has made his home in Portland since that time. Mr. Bourne graduated from Harvard in the class of 1877 with the degree of Bachelor of Arls and was ad mitted to the bar of Oregon in 1881. He is regarded as one of the best educated men in the state. He engaged in the active practice of law but a few years when he turned his attention to mining in Oregon. He has spent more money in Oregon mines both in Southern Oregon and Eastern Ore gon than any other man residing in the state. His enterprises and investments have not all been suc cessful and in 1893 Mr. Bourne lost almost his entire fortune con sisting of about $3,000,000 left him by his father who was one of the wealthiest men of Massachusetts. Since his misfortunes Mr. Bourne has been more successful in his mining affairs and is in a good way toward regaining part of his lost wealth. He owns the E & E mine near Sumpter which is con sidered worth half a million dol lars besides other mining proper ties in eastern and southern Ore gon. His home is now in Port land. He was married in 1893 to Miss Lillian E. Wyatt who is a sister to the well known lawyer, John R. Wyatt of Albany. M hool Report, We are reliably informed by sev eral parties that Editor Holder, of The Review had taken the trouble to write the American Type Foun dry, with whom both The Review and The Journal do business, as the Journal's business standing. It Beems that his information has been of such a character that his dwarfed conception Haw fit to cir culate the report that Mr. W. T. Fogle was still a partner in The Journal. That there had been no sale, but that he had withdrawn his name from business effect. This is an injustice to both The Jour nal and Mr. Fogle inasmuch as the sale was bona fide. Had Editor Holder come to The Journal like a man we would gladly have re ferred him to our accounts which are open to the public. Better still, he could have consulted the County Clerk's records. In either case he would have found the sale to have been a bona fide one. We make mention of this in a spirit of defense and not through malice. The election of U. S. Senato from Oregon was accomplished on the 42nd and last ballot, and had a logical termination. The Jour nal believes Fulton, the successful candidate, was the choice of a ma jority of the voters of the state of Oregon and the legislators who stood by him through thick and thin are to be commended. With Mitchell and Fulton in the Senate and Williamson and another able man as Tongue's successor, say Binger Herman, Oregon will have a deltgation in our national body of which any state might well feel proud. Prineville, Ore., Feb. 21st, 1903. Mr. Editor: In studying the plan of salvation as expounded by the first desciples that they made much of water baj tism as taught hy our Lord and his Apostles, i.e. "Ho that be lieveth and is baptized, shall he saved," etc., Mark 10:10 and Acts 2:38. "Then Peter said unto them, 'Repent ye and be haptiied every one of you in the name of- Jesus Christ untofor for the remission of your sins; and ye shall reciove tin gift of the Holv Ghost." " I find that from these, passages and others the doctrine was taught that water baptism was a part of the plan of salvation as was faith and repentance; and being put in u the same sentences and a part of the same phrases, it was counted an essentjnl I also find -that for nearly three hundred years there was 110 other mode than immersion eanclioned, and that not until the Council of Ravenna 1311, A. D., did the Roman Catholic Church declare it to be indifferent whether affusion or immersion was practised, and even now there is one or more ca thedrals where immersion is taught and practiced by the Cath olic Church. I also find that the Episcopal Church returned to the ancient practice when thev split off from the Catholics, and they continued this practice for about one hundred years. This was also true of the Presbyterian and Con gregational Churches; and Martin Luther tried to do the same. John Wesley, and many others who have been leaders in Mlioinm thought, believed in and taught immersion and practiced the same. Now forasmuch as this with other things, taught plainly by the word of God, and has been laid aside by many professing ministers otttie gospel m their attempt to build denominational and sectari an churches, and because of this the people, who are led by them. President Roosevelt last Satnr. are kept from a knowledge and day signed the bill providing for a yuruupuuon in wnat many of us department of commerce, thus con- fomia, Utah and several other states and was found to be want ing in several respects when appli ed to Oregon. All those resident in tho arid sections of the State have petitioned for legislation along this lino and Senator Pierce has drafted a hill which Is aimed to supply all needs. After having been drafted this measure was sub mitted to those most concerned und not until it had been approved by them was it placed before tho Legislature. It provides for elections in irri gation districts and for officers, oaths of ollice, etc. The treasurer must furnish a- bond in a sum twice as large as that ho is con sidered likely to have in his keep ing during his term of ollice. Sen ator Pierce is being highly praised for his work along this line. The following is the the report of School district No. 37, from Hay Creek, Oregon, commencing Sept. 8, and ending Feb. 20, 1903.

There Is said to be also some ru mor that tho school house is to be repaintod in tho near future. Hoy Chitwood has left school and is now working for Mr. Wheeler. Several of the pupils wore absent at different times last week. Last Friday afternoon was .prin cipally spent in a spelling contest, in which Ray Joslin of tho V grade took first placo and Fay Chitwood second. The lesson was taken from the V grade work. Visitors for the week were Messrs Henry and Joe Montgomery and Win. Roberts.

By this method all can hear and the discussion will be devoid of heated words and atmospheric disturbances. I lor one want to know and do the truth as it was practiced and taught by our Lord and his apostles. None can loose aught but error by such a discus sion, and we all want to get rid of that, I am sure. By .the present segregation of denominational wajls there is little chance of an exchange of views, and hence many are kept in enforced ignor ance on subjects that by this method may be laid open to the unbiased judgment of all in this community. I hereby challenge proof to the contrary of the above affirmations. E. A. Child. T Reclaim the Oregon Deaerla. A measure that is intended to cause the desert to blossom as a garden and to bring forth fruit has passed the Senate and is now be fore the House for action. Those who were interested in it most de clare it to be the greatest step for ward that has ever been taken in the eolonization and cultivation of the State of Oregon. This is Pierce's Senate Bill No. 181, regu lating irrigation and conferring upon irrigation corporations and districts the right of eminent do main in order that none may stop them in their labor of upbuilding the State. While the law it is proposed to enact does not in any way rob others of their right to water from all streams that flow within reason able distance of the land they wish to irrigate, it does provide for the transportation of that water by means of ditches, pipes or flumes across the property of others. This will prevent the stubbornness of others, or the rivalry of oppo sition companies or districts re tarding developments. In some ways the Pierce law re books, but it goes further, although in reality only intended to maki the present law operative.
