OREGON EQUITY NEWS '-WJSS!
Oregon is not flry enough for hay
making. The prospect for a tomato crop is
not promising.
Potatoes look like prosperity. It
depends on prices.
Too often when the price is good
the crop is poor.
Quiet should reign. T. R. in Eu
rope and Brown in Honolulu.
Prosperity is coming so say all our
exchanges, but it is slow in arriving
coming by freight.
We read the new social creed of
the churches and we got the idea that
church members are trying to be
Christians.
It is strange farmers should be
complaining of hard times when all
the scientific experts on Main St.,
are showing us how to get rich
raising big crops.
There is a little complaint of hard
times down on Main. St. Now it be
hooves us farmers to return courte
sies and tell those lawyers and mer
chants how to run their business.
The Oregon Bankers' Association
met at Medford and prayed to Con
gress to stop this trust busting that
they might prey off us farmers a lit
tle while longer.
That board of trade of Oregon City
successors to the late live wires seem
to have fallen heir to the guardian
ship of the harmony brigade. They
have enlisted in a good cause. We
may all tie up in the hitching sheds
or go down in the elevator.
President Mellen of the New En
gland' railroad trust testified that
they had bribed more than one thou
sand newspapers of their territory.
He also said that they had spent less
than other roads for this purpose,
Farmers subscribe for these papers
and drink the dope and pay the
freight. The thing to do is not to
do it.
The Farmers' Society of Equity
has attempted the biggest thing ever
uttemnted for American Farmers. It
in o-oinir to heln all farmers who
raise wheat to divide over $218,000,
000 saved from what usually goes to
the middlemen. It is the Equity
plan of marketing. If you are inter
ested inquire of an Equity member
or if none are in your locality address
the Equity editor.
Brother Kelnhofer says when roads
are good potatoes are worth nothing
and when roads are bad they are
worth $1.10 per hundred and he is
boosting for good roads. We suppose
he is going to quit raising potutoes
and expects his brother farmers to
haul them over to his farm this win
ter on good roads and pay him sofne-
thine for the privilege, iney comu
irnt rich buvinir when roads were
trrtfiA And sellim? when roads were
bad. Potatoes could go as Parcel
Post or balloon ballast.
Successful Farming tells us that a
health magazine says that alfalfa
cures nearly all the diseases in the
catalog from jumping rheumatism to
torpid liver. Why snoum we iar
mers drench ourselves with slops
. from the drue trust or trust to a doc
tors' trust just so long as we can eat
hav? It would be none of Dr.
Strickland's business if we ate the
hnlinir wire. We wonder if our doc
tors' trust is going to test again the
efficiency of raw crow t
Psyche was the Greek Goddess of
the soul and psychology is the science
of the soul and according to president
Wilson the cause of the present busi
ness stagnation is psychological. No
doubt this is true for we have heard
of soulless corporations. College pro
fessors certainly understand politi
cal metaphysics and the people may
decide to give the Democratic Admin
istration some absent treatment
which will be a valuable suggestion
to the next expounder of Psychic
phenomenon. Secretary Redfield is
another political clairvoyant.
The United States received an ulti
matum from John D's lawyers the
13th last. Federal and State officers
were severely criticised. That they
intend to defend their millions with
arms is believed to be indicated In
their statement. We believe the U.
S. will back down but Standard Oil
had better keep an eye upon the men
who lost their wives and children at
Ludlow, and Deacon John had bet
ter watch a few ministers of the
Baptist faith who live among the
people.
The public markets in Portland are
benefiting the consumer some Decuuse
the merchants are putting Aip a roar.
They claim that Japs and Chinese
are the ones benefitted and they are
the losers. Well Mr. Merchant, did
you not boycott the American gard
ner and patronize the Jap until the
American was forced out of the busi
ness? Oregon City patronizes John
Wing. Now Mr. Merchant you may
join the unemployed army. Have you
forgotten how you treated them last
winter? Chickens come home to
roost.
It is the opinion of ye Equity edi
tor that our Japs and Chinese earn
every dollar they get and more the
same as other farmers. The mer
chant that runs the corner grocory
is not getting rich. We favor pub
lic markets but what little we save
there will not benefit us as long as
larger combinations of commercial pi
rates stand ready to gobble what we
can save by throwing the little mid
dlemen in the ranks of the unemploy
ed. We will got more, sympathy from
the merchant when fie too must la
bor under similar conditions.
Your Eciuity editor believes that
the most important measure effect
ing the farmer is Rural Credit. It
must be a direet-from-the-govcrn
ment-to-the-farmcr kind without any
middleman and be on a co-operative
basis. The credit or money issues
must be a full legal tender and bo
issued in quantity to satisfy all (le
mands of agriculture with nothing
but farm property for security. This
would soon absorb the business of
other banks oxccnt the Postal Sav
ings and then it could do a general
banking business for the merchant.
All farmers could unite on this and
win.
The first federation of farmers'
organizations has been consumated in
Kansas. Oregon could have had that
distinction but they failed to make
good. The Kansas people do things
with a vim. Seventy-five delegates
met at Emporia from several organi
zations including the Equity and
formed the Farmers and Consumers
Produce Association with John M.
Johnson of Emporia as president, and
C. D. Resler of Chanute secretary.
This is the first real farmers feder
ation in the United States. We will
watch it.
Over in West Virgina we read
where "Gen." Kelly's army of 50 un
employed were arrested for walking
on the right-of-way of a railroad.
They had not tasted food for thirty
hours. They were made to work on
the public road.
United States District Judge A. G.
Dayon of W. Va., is facing impeach
ment charges by Congressman Neely.
This judge has abused his high of
fice to favor coal companies against
the miners. We also read that the
crack in the Liberty bell is getting
wider.
Spence will suit farmers better
than some other fellows who want to
go to Salem.
If you have neglected your kidneys
and suffer from backache, weak back,
headache, rheumatism and distress

A LECTURE
on
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
By Francis J. Fluno, C. 8. I).
Man Who Knoios What
Christian Science Is
The Claims of , Christian Sci
ence on the Modern World
Dr. Francis M. Fluno lectured up
on Christian Science before a very
large audience at Busch's Hall Thurs
day evening, June 25. His talk was
of intense interest to those interest
ed in the religion of the church found
ed by Mrs. Eddy. Prof. A. Ot Friel
introduced the speaker with a few
well chosen words, A considerable
portion of the audience were from
Portland.
The claims of Christian Science on
the modern world are the claims of
Christian Science on the pre-historlc
age, the ancient age, the mediaeval
age, the present age and the age to
come.
Christian Science makes no un
reasonable claims on the modern
world; its claims are based upon the
Spirit of Love, Life and Truth, and

DR. MILLIKEN
REPLIES
TO HENRI
Baptist Pastor Thinks Bible A Good
Guide for Those who Seek
Scientific Truths
As a rule the Courier taboos re
ligious controversies. There are
probably as many opinions concern
ing religious matteis as there are per
sons who have any conception of the
word "Religion" no two being en
tirely agreed upon so abstract and
difficult a subject. Last week how
ever we published a communication
from one G. A. Henri who held that
the Bible was a most unscientific
book, and impossible to harmonize
with modern scientific thought. He
expressed the opinion that it should
be supplanted by the scientific liter
ature of today for the teaching of
morals, etc.
Dr. W. T..Milliken cannot accept
this opinion and replies in his usual
capable manner, in a letter which
follows:
I am pleased that Mr. Henri has
asked the questions given in his re
cent communication. They are
questions that often come up, and
that are honestly propounded. But
a great deal of the difficulty, it
seems to me, occurs through indefi
nite thinking, or because the thinker
is doing what it is so easy to do
looking from one angle only. In or
der to clear up this matter I would
like Mr. Henri to define his position
more clearly by answering a few
questions.
1. What does Mr. Henri mean by
"Science?"
Scientia" means "Truth," and Psy
chology and Theology are both listed
in the accredited sciences.
2. Will he please show a place
upon earth now, or in any enlighten
ed age, where science is not the di
rect product of a civilization due to
5. Will Mr. Henri name eome truly
great scientists who repudiate who
repudiate the Bible?
The world's two greatest scien
tists today are Rudolph Eucken and
Henri Bergson, both men of faith.
The late Alfred Russell Wallace (the
greatest evolutionist of the age) Ro
manes, Lord Kelvin, Sir Oliver
Lodge, and Sir William Crookes,
have all come from agnosticism to
faith. Gaultier, Le Roy and Carr
Janet and Munsterberg are a few of
the Christian philosophers and psy
chologists. In a Scientific Congress
in England in which over 300 scien
tists were present, ninety per cent
expressed themselves as Christians.
The science of the 19th century was
agnostic. That of the 20th is mar
velously Christian. Mr. Henri certain
ly is not familiar with the modern
trend of scientific thought.
Bob Ingersoll sat with some friends
of mine in an office in Fargo, North
Dakota, next morning after one of
his high-priced lectures against the
Bible. One of those present leaned
across towards him and said: "Mr.
Ingersoll, do you really believe what
you teach? What is there in your
attack upon the Bible anyhow?" The
great agnostic chuckled and said:
"There is a dollar a head from every
sucker who comes to hear me." Yet
Mr. Ingersoll is still the great scien
tific light of some who like to be
thought hinking men!
6, Mr. Henri says that the Bible
is to be set aside because it is the pro
duct of an "Age of murderous ignor
ance." . Will Mr. Henri please out
line a code of morals superior to
those of the Christ? Will he name
a character in all history as flawless
as Christ? If the Character and
moral code of Christ cannot be im
proved upon in the light of the twen
tieth century, and his statement is
true that it arose in "An age of mur
derous ignorance," can it be anything
else than Divine? Mr. Henri him
self has here adduced one of the
strongest arguments possible for the
Divine origin of the Scriptures, which
could not be a natural product of such
an age as he describes.
S. M. SCORES WITHYCOMBE
Reviews the Same Old Trouble-some
Questions
The Courier sometimes receives
communications which we find it im
possible to publish. ' We do not wish
to deny any honest man the right to
express his candid opinions in print,
but we do not relish being the goat
and getting the blame for the ultra
radical effusions of our correspond
ents. Dr. Withycombe's recent
speech in Oregon City, in which he
is said to have insinuated that those
persons who were responsible for the
departure of Chinese laborers from
the Oregon farms were criminals and
murderers, and that those who preach
certain political reforms are fanatics,
and, finally, his throwing defiance at
the "rabble" has stirred up a veri
able political hornets' nest; and a de
luge of buzzing, stinging protests are
converging upon us from all sides.
These are costing the editor endless
trouble. We are trying our best to
save the good doctor from political
annihilation. We want him to hold
together at least long enough to make
the gubernatorial race worth loooking
at. We have tried to edit the bitter
ness out of the following communi
cation from "S. M." but it still re
tains a little.
Oregon City, Ore.,
. June 27th, 1914.
Editor Courier;
In your issue of yesterday's date 1
see that Mr. James Withycombe is
trying to repair the holes he opened
up in his political pathway. Now Mr.
Withycombe did say that it was "a
mistake to clear Clackamas county of
the Chinese," who made it impossible
for a white laboring man or woman to
live, because of the difference in the
standards of living of Americans and
Chinese? Mr. Withycombe did say
that the Chinese were excluded be
cause of an agitation by a rabble of
A fake gold mine has been promot
ed on Senate letter heads and some
one is going to be investigaetd. Wee
think it is useless under the late de
cision of our Supreme Court that con
gressmen are immune and can do no
wrong, even- during committee inves
tigations. And yet we read where
Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania
spent $12,860 to get the nomination
to succeed himself to a $7,500 job as
U. S. Senator.
Farmers of this nation are organ
izing and co-operating more and
more. There are now scattered over
our domain thousands of co-operative
enterprises owned and operated by
actual farmers. We have:
Insurance Companies 1867

If farmers do not band together
and stop this commercial robbery
that is slowly sapping their wealth,
health and happiness they will lose
the respect of thinking people; of
the people of foreign nations. We
say it must stop and we are going
to defend our families ana aemana
that it does stop and we are well or
ganized and going to be better organ
ized and better drilled and we will
see to it that it does stop.
Brother Farmer, you paid 20 cents
per pound for fresh salmon and want
to know why? Sulmon can bo can
ned by millionaires and they can
make a war down in Mexico and Con
gress spends ono hundred million dol
lars of our money to pay for canned
salmon and other millionaire goods
and that creates a demand and the
price goes up and you tax yourself
again to build hatcheries for the can
ners so you can build more legal
fences between you and your fish in
your river. SavyT
When a railroad goes broke the
sheriff does not sell the road from
the east door of the courthouse at
two o'clock sharp. No they get the
Interstate Commerce Commission to
let them raise freight rates on that
big wheat crop and they get sena
tor Bristow of Kansas to introduce
a bill to have the government pay
for space the mail takes up instead
of by weight, which makes them ten
million on each deal. The roads
are then able to pay their political
debts.
The Equity Society of Oregon is
suffering from inactivity like id
young man, and it must be put to
work. The Eauitv of. Oregon is a
power organized and as we look back
over the last two years it is wonder
ful what a change has been produced
over this state in the sentiment and
progress of agricultural education.
The whole stale has awakened up to
the needs of the farmer. Portland
and Oregon City have begun to real
ize the far-reaching possibilities that
agricultural prosperity will bring. We
must not loiter on this progressive
march, but we as organized farmers
should lead the van in our own ad
vancement. Wo should show th0 way
to peace and plenty for all. We
should not complain of our injustice
unless we show the way to justice.
Now at our next meetings both of the
counties and of the State let us have
the product of our best thinkers and
leaders to blaze the trail for further
achievements of Equity. We must
not remain idle or rest on our oars.
We must not ask the members for
large sums of money to be paid out
in large Buluries to those who live in
cities,
We have organized because we
are poor and we are poor from in
justice practiced on us in the market
centers through a robbing system of
market manipulators. We must see
to it that this is stopped.. It musf be
stopped or we will all lose our prop
erty and self respect. We are the
first hands to create the food pro
ducts on which other people live and
they MUST have these products.
Then is it necessary that we furnish
anything else? Is this not enough
to command to bring other things to
us? on our own terms? With the
food of the country in our hands with
all the raw material for clothes in
our hands is that enough leverage to
lift other things? Did we put up a
lot of capital to get a paper to print
our doctrine and spread the word that
we demanded justice? This situation
is beyond all but those who are gift
ed with philosophy and it is the duty
of those to come to our meetings with
a plan for our activity. The situa
tion demands activity without Dig
outlays.

Gentlemen; We have used your Bliz

find them a very satisfactory machine
in every way. We put up over 600 tons
of corn and had no trouble cutting from
50 to 55 tons per day and elevating it
to a height of 32 feet, using an L-15 ma
chine. We consider them the best ma
chine made for the purpose. We also
used it to cut alfalfa and clover hay
fed to sheep and cattle at our yards this
Winter, and it handled the work in good
shape.

They cost nearly as much in the beginning and far
more in the long run, or short run, either, for that
matter. The Blizzard is a 'practical machine. It com
bines knives, fan and fly wheel instead of using these
as separate units, thereby saving power
and making a more compact cutter. It
elevates without fail into the tallest silo.
It cuts the material with a sheer cut,
does not crush it. The Blizzard is re
sponsive to control and safe to operate.
The Bliizard is widely imitated; but
nothing can shake its popularity with
those who have used them.

It is not a discovery of a new
Truth, but a new discovery of an old
Truth. It is the law of eternal
life, divine Principle; and is there
fore the Science of Sciences; the Re
ligion of Religions, and the Church
of all Churches. It teaches the scien
tific fact of a perfect God and a per
fect creation, as the basis of every
conclusion.
Christian Science takes nothing
from the world, but gives nil to the
world;' In the place of war we find
peace; and universal ns n:e is raised
i.i the dawn of that gind day "When
all shall dwell together, one Shop
heH f nd one fold."
Christian Science takes the world
where it finds it, and raises the low
er to the higher; and the hicher still
higher. It not only heals mortals of
sickness but it corrects the world of
such a thing as sickness . It not
only heals individuals of sin, but it
corrects the world of such a thing
as sin and iniquity.
As tho problem in mathematics is
found after the solution to be not only
perfect and correct but it is found
also that it always was perfect and
correct. Likewise man in Christian
Science is found after the solution of
the problem, not- only to be perfect
like the Father, but it is found at the
same time, that he always was per
fect; that the errors of human belief
never were true, any more than tho
errors of the mathematical problem
were true.
The so-called laws of health that
civilization makes and breaks and yet
builds upon, are as changeable and
unreliable as the wind that blows;
and no more the laws of God, than
the laws of evil are the laws of good,
or the law of wrong is the law of
right.
The divine law of health, which Is
the law of Life, the law of God, is
as changeless, immutable, pure and
perfect as the eternal God Himself.
And is man's spiritual birthright.
Christian Science shows that the
error of the ages is, in having two
powers, one of good and the other .of
evil; and this belief beclouds the eye
of reason, shuts out the true under
standing of life, and robs man of his
God-given inheritance.
the Bible?
Mr. Henri acknowledges in' his let
ter that the Bible arose in an age of
"murderous ignorance" (to quote his
own words.) Since the days ot the
apostles every period that has hidden
the Bible has been marked by decline
in scientific knowledge, while every
age of renewed Biblical research has
been marked by great scientific ad
vancement. A nation with the open
Bible has always been in the fore
front of scientific progress; on
without the Bible has given "to the
world very little that is scientifically
new. There never has been any de
gree of scientific knowledge where
there has been no revelation of God.
3. Where does Science contradict
the Bible?
The Bible contains the record of
Divine Revelation adapted to each
age. It also contains the record of
men's views about that Revelation.
Naturally these are tinged by the
age. God s plans has never been to
suddenly transform a man of 15U0 a.
C. into a twentieth century Doctor of
science. He works along the plan
of an evolution. I have been trying
to get every man who comes along
and shies a criticism at the Bible to
specify the instance to which he takes
exception, but all seem to avoid the
issue as they would at , a case of
smallpox. It is unfair ' to criticise
any theory, or any work, without
specifying the thing to which you
take exception.
4. When did the sudden decline
in interest in the Bible, to which Mr.
Henri reiers, occur T
The New International Year Book
for 1913 contains the annual report
of the American Bible Society. Last
year they sold or gave away 4,049,610
Bibles. This was an " increase of
354,409 over 1912, and was twice the
output of 1907. The British and for
eign Bible Society disposed of up
wards oi b.uuu.ouo Bibles last year,
the largest issue in their history.
Y. M. C. A., Bible Schools, and
Young People's Societies report more
Bible Classes and many more stu
dents of the Bible than at any time in
history. The Republic of China has
made it a text in the public schools
of that nation. Where then is the
decline?
Mr. Henri, like my friend T. Lord
C. (to whose peculiar method of rea
soning he shows a marked resem
blance) pays a tribute to Christ. Will
he please arise and inform us where
he will go to learn about the Christ
he honors if he religates the Scrip
tures to the shades of oblivion?
The final test of science is EX
PERIENCE. The chemist's test tube
pestle and mortar and reagents are
but methods of reducing the unknown
to experience. The laboratory me
thod in all science is simply the re
duction of all knowledge to the test
of experience. I can take Mr. Henri
to several hundred of the most intel
ligent people of Oregon City and vi
cinity who have met, not a dead phil
osophy, but a living Christ Jesus; and
have, through that meeting, a new
life that they, never knew before. To
their inexpressible joy over a half
million people of his Nation last year
have met this Saviour and have prov
en the truth of the revealed religion
of God. 1
Brother beloved, you cannot smell
a rainbow, lhat is the wrong sense
to employ. You cannot hear a sun
set It is folly to deny that such ex
ists because this is so. Neither caw
you find a spiritual God with physi
cal senses. It can't be done! But
a psychology has proven that we
have other senses than the physical,
soul senses. How slow those poor
fool scientists are in finding out
truth! The New Testament taught
us that fact over nineteen hundred
years ago, and millions through the
ages have proven it true! We speak
not as dreamers, voicing strange
phantacies. but as honest men and
women telling what we know to be
true. And until vou successfully
answer in the negative my seven
questions, and prove the experience
of the millions of Christendom to
be an ignorant superstition I will
cling to, and teach my old Bible.

common people, as against your
svumu iur capital and special privi
lege..
You say the great need of Oregon
is more outside capital. Did you
ever stop to think that if a billion
dollars of capital comes in it will at
10 per cent take tens of millions out
oi uregon .' Did you ever stop to
think that England is bleeding Amer
ica yearly because we have made our
selves believe we need English cur
rency to bolster up our credit, when
as a matter of fact all the credit w
ever had or ever will have is right
here, and ever will be here, and all
we neec w get tne benefit of it Is
to have the profit of what we produce
retained for the producer?
Did you ever stop to think that 40
billion dollars of debt is what pre
vents the farmers of this country
from forging ahead? That this is
driving them out of the farm busi
ness; because to farm they must go
on the Chinamen's standard of ex
istence? Listen! All interest must
be paid by the producer. Private
MRS. WINN'S
ADVICE TO WOMEN
Take LydiaE.Pinkham' Veg
etable Compound and be
Restored to Health.
Kansas City, Mo. "The doctors told
me I would never be a mother. Every
month the pains
were so bad that I
could not bear my
weight on one foot.
I began taking Ly
dia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Com
pound and had not
finished the first bot
tle when I felt
greatly relieved and
I took it until it
made me sound and
well, and I now have two fine baby
girls. I cannot praise Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound too highly
for what it has done for me. I always
speak a word in favor of your medicine
to other women who suffer when I have
an opportunity." Mrs. H. T. Winn,
1225 Freemont Ave., Kansas City, Mo.
Bead What Another Woman says:
.Cumming, Ga. "I tell some suffer
ing woman every day of Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound and what it
has done for me. I could not eat or
sleep, had a bad stomach and was in
misery all the time. I could not do my
housework or walk any distance without
suffering great pain. I tried doctors'
medicines and different patent medi
cines but failed to get relief. My hus
band brought home yourVegetable Com
pound and in two weeks I could eat any
thing, could sleep like a healthy baby,
and walk a long distance without feeling
tired. I can highly recommend your
Vegetable Compound to women who
suffer as I did, and you are at liberty to
use this letter." Mrs. Charlie Baq
ley, R. 3, Cumming, Ga.
