THE MOUSING OKEGOSTAN, THURSDAY, PEBTtrAST 21, 1893. LITTLE OF ETEREST MUCH BUSINESS, HOWETCR, DONE AT OLYMriA. Feature of the Day Was the Fost- lionemcnt o the Bill to Stop Worlc on. the Capitol. OL.TJIPIA, Feb. 20. This has been an uninteresting day in both branches of the legislature, although considerable busi ness was disposed of by the senate. The feature of the house proceedings was the discussion of Taylor's bill to stop -work on the capltol, -which was indefinitely post poned by a vote of S3 to 23. As soon as that measure -was disposed of, Scobey's bill, to appropriate $500,000 to continue work on the capitol building during the Jiejct two years, was reported back from the committee, with a majority in favor of its passage. It was not considered, how fever, and now occupies a place on the calendar under the head of second read ing of bills. A pretty fight is promised when it comes up for the third reading. Its opponents claim that the 28 votes cast against the Taylor bill today is not evi dence of their full strength, for several of their friends are absent from the city. Another investigation of a public insti tution was ordered today by the adoption of Representative Scott's resolution for the appointment of a joint committee to Investigate charges preferred against the board of trustees of the Ellensburgh Nor mal school by E. C. Price, architect, and John Nash, superintendent of construc tion of the school building. The board is charged with swindling the state out of S4O09, and the secretary of the board is charged with raising vouchers against the emergency fund, and with allowing in ferior workmanship and material to enter into the construction of the building, and jna.xr other irregularities. Friends of merabers of the board, however, say that tfcf y court investigation. The special committee of Inquiry to look Snto the charges preferred in the legisla ture against Judge Jesse Arthur, of Spo Irane. returned tonight, accompanied by lludge Arthur, his attorney. Tom Grif Jltts, and J. R. Lambley, who preferred the charges. Judge Turner and ex-Prosecuting Attorney Fenton, of Spokane, were Tnet in Tacoraa by the committee, and came over as witnesses. Tonight Colonel Eddy, chairman, convened the committee to complete the testimony, and, if possi ble, prepare a report to the legislature. Judge Turner, Attorneys Fenton and Grif Jltts and Chauncey Betts, of Spokane, tes tifled behind closed doors, and the Judge himself was called in and questioned again. About 11 o'clock the testimony closed, and the committee began its con sideration of the case. The belief is prev alent here that the report will not be fa vorable to Impeachment proceedings being brought before the senate. The resolution by Cline, populist, to ap point a joint Lexow committee to Investi gate all charges of misconduct of officials of wtate institutions, was referred to the house Judiciary committee. The new bills Introduced today appro priate $15,000 for an experiment in sugar boet culture: reduce justices fees 25 per cent; make the secretary of state presid ing officer of the house till a speaker is chosen, and reduce the compensation of receivers to that fixed by law for execu tors and administrators. The house committee reported favorably on the bill to abolish the salary fund. Interest in the final disposition of the Helena freight-rate bill Increases. To ly a story was circulated as to the or igin of the measure. It was said to have n?J2 JSfter dlrectlx Jtv. "" mieresis oi tne bankers and 'specu lators of the Palouse country, and that ha had been paid a slated sum to draft the bill, and another fee to appear before the fcurislatlve committees and make argu ment in favor of its passage. One thing that has lent color to the story has been the presence here of J. H. Bellinger & Sons, the wealthiest bankers In the ralouse c&untry: ex-Representative D. F. Anderson, of Rosalia; B. F. Shields, of Pullman, and others who are not farmers but have big holdings of wheat. It was asserted by those who repeated this story that nearly all the wheat now In. the Palouse country, as well as a large roportion of next year's crop, is held by bankers and speculators under foreclos ure sales or chattel mortgages, and notes secured by future crops. These bankers, it is asserted, have been loaning money to farmers at high rates of Interest. The failure of the wheat crop of 1S93, and the low price for the commodity in 1S91 made It Impossible for the farmers to meet their obligations with the money-lenders, anl anany turned their entire wheat crop over to the bankers at the then current price ranging from IS to 10 cents per bushel. Those who did not do this gave chattel mortgages, only to lose their crops later on by foreclosure sales. The holdings of the bankers and specu lators Is put down at from 1.000.00Q to 1. &00.000 bushels. By the proposed reduction in rates, it is said, they would realise a profit aggregating from $00,000 to 130.000. This profit will be greatly swelled by the incrjased price of wheat. Taylor's bill to stop work on the cap ltol building was reported back from the committee to the house this morning with a majority report in favor of indefinite postponement, and a minoritv report, signed by Rogers of .Puyallup. recommend ing Its passage. A lengthy discussion arose over a motion to adopt the majority report, and a great deal of interest was displayed. Every resident of the state is looking toward Olympia for some re port of the final disposition of the cap ital question. Scobey of Thurston. Rey nolds of Leu is. Moore of Skncit. smi others advocated the adoption of the motion. Reynolds made, a happy speech, in which he referred in a most humorous manner to the attempts being made by different localities to bring about a re moval of the capital from Olympia. Rog ers, populist, of Pierce, who has been abused of lighting the capitol building, in the hope that the capital might eventually be removed to his home at Puyallup, re futed the charge most earnestly. His only aim in opposing the construction of the capltol building, he said, was in the Interests of economy. He believed the atate should not entertain such a heavy expense when the people are struggling for existence. The motion to indefinitely postpone prevailed. The bill for a state road between Se attle and Tacoma was taken out of the hands of the committee on roads and bridges in the house this morning and re ferred to the appropriation committee, which means that it will not come up for consideration this session. HUIk Which Passed. OLYMPIA. Feb. 20.

Dlxny Array of "Aliens," Landmnrlc ers," Anti-Landmarkem," Etc. PORTLAND. Feb. 20. (To the Editor.) My attention has been called to an item in the Pacific Baptist, a Portland paper, edited by Rev. C. A. "Wooddy. As there are in this country upwards of 3,500.000 of Baptists, In round numbers, and as the entire Baptist denomination, and to some extent all of the various Protestant sects of the country, are more or less interested in the issue leading to this little action of the "conference," I desire the privilege of making a statement regarding the same. I especially ask the favor of doing so through your columns, since the re ligious editor's are not open to me, and, as you will see, the editor's comment re fers somewhat to myself. "To Whom It May Concern" Is the title, and it reads as follows: "In reply to inquiries addressed to some of' its members, the Portland Baptist ministers' conference desires to have It known that the name of W. H. Shearman has been dropped, from Its roll of membership for cause; and that he does not represent the Baptists of the state and that he lacks the confidence of the members of this conference in the divisive work he is now pursuing. Pub llsed by unanimous vote of the confer ence. Portland Baptist Ministers' Con ference. " The editor's comment is as follows: "Referring to what is elsewhere said by the Portland Baptist ministers' confer ence concerning W. H. Shearman, it should be said further that he is, and has been since the early part of last October, the general missionary of the Landmark convention, a body which has no denom inational affiliation or fellowship with Baptist bodies North or South, East or West. Its relation to the state conven tions of Oregon ard Washington is only that of opposition and hostility. This convention and its agents have the right to call themselves what they please and do what they please; but they have, in common honesty, no right to represent themselves as other than they are, or as having a fellowship that they do not have. That this has been done would seem to be the case from lettero we have recently seen." As already stated, this man is an editor, and his columns are open to himself and his kind. First, I would state that this action of the "conference," the editorial com ment, and the real animus of it, all grows out of the fact that there is a division among the 3.500,000 Baptists of this coun try regarding the matter of receiving persons into Baptist churches who have been immersed by others than Baptists, or without the authority of a Baptist church all Baptists claiming that only a Baptist church .Is a true New Testament or Scriptural church, and that only a true Scriptural church can administer church ordinances or rites such as bap tism and the Lord's supper. The names of these two parties thus divided are usually known as "regular" and "alien," or as "Landmarkers" and "Antl-Land-markers." Of the regulars or Landmark ers, there were In the United States, ac cording to the figures given by the Ex aminer of New York, in 1SS0, 2,903,700 in round numbers; -while there were of the "aliens" or "anti-Landmarkers" only 4(5,700. The editor of the Pacific Baptist and the so-called "conference" are of the "alien" persuasion with the little wing. At least they are working with those bodies that are in sympathy with the alien, the "liberal" wing, the "new de parture," there being only four churches of this kind in the state of Oregon, out side of the Willamette association, and so far as I know "not one in the state of Washington, in 1SS0 and herein lies the real animus of their action and the editor's comment. As already stated, the eyes of the whole denomination are upon the division and the shape it is taking on the North Pa cific coast, and this action, no doubt, marks a new phase of the Issue, for up to this time, so far as I have heard, there has not been openly declared , "non-fellowship" between the two bodies; but in the East, North and South, there still exists fellowship and comity, even to the extent that the two great conventions have recently ratified, through special committee, at Fortress Monroe, terms of co-operation. The painful thing about the action of this editor and the "conference" is to all right-minded and good people the Jesuitical and persecuting spirit that it discloses; for in all common sensoand reason this conference has not the slight est jurisdiction over me. In any way, after I moved away from Portland, last sum mer, and became the general missionary of the North Pacific coast baptist conven tion, about six months since. Thus looked at from any point of -view, this action of the "conference" must be regarded as simply a far-fetched effort of the alien to Injure the regular Bamists hv a. daring "non-fellowship" for their gen eral missionary. Of course I was con sidered all right so long as I worked In conjunction with the aliens, and did not oppose the coterie known pretty gener ally throughout the state as the "Port land ring." If this action is to be fol lowed up by them, then the next thing to do will be to remove or "drop" my name from the position of preacher of the annual sermon before the Willamette Allen Association. Then, after that, drop my name from the Portland Baptist Mis sion Union, and as having been chairman of the missionary committee of the same. Second, you will notice the covert word "seems" in the editor's comment. It is all in keeping with the general conduct and spirit of the man, for no doubt the citizens of Portland, and all who read the Daily Oregonlan ami the Associated Press dispatches, are aware of the fact that this editor was. in the month of July, last past, excluded and turned out of the Immanuel Baptist church, of Port land an alien church, one of his own kind upon charges, the substance of which was "double-dealing, hypocrisy, lying and general un-Christian conduct, ' as Rill appear to all who examine the Dally Oregonlan of July 11, 1SW. This man was at a subsequent meeting, and upon his own request, "restored" to member ship in the Immanuel church, by the adoption of a joint committee report, appointed by the Immanuel and the First Baptist churches for that purpose, which report was In substance that this man be received back into the Immanuel church upon his "application." in accord ance with section S, article 1, of J. New ton Brown's "Rules of Church Order." which reads as follows, towit: "Excluded persons may be restored to membership upon confession of their errors and giving evidence of repentance." After the church adopted this report (the Imman uel simply following the First Baptist in this), Mr. Wooday made a "statement confessing errors rtm! wraiw-risilni' tn tha I church, for which he asktu the pardon of the church." The base treachery and perfidy of this man will be the more ap parent when the fact is made known that during all this trouble o. . Wooddy I treated him with the greatest kindness, actually going to him- and begging him to come before the church, and I pleaded with the church to forgive him and to show mercy towards him; and I fur ther gave him the "hand of fellowship," for the church. If will be plain to all who read of his attack on me as to who has violated that act. No doubt it Is now plain to all that Mr. Wooddy simply acted a hypocrite again before the Immanuel church, for the purpose of gaining the "hand of fel lowship," "dsnominatlonal affiliation" and "standing," and finally a letter of dis mission to another church. This view of the matter is especially strengthened when his former experience with other churches is taken into account, say the one st Wes ton. Oregon. Finally, I must say that this matter is indeed very painful, as it no doubt is to all good people of whatever name. I have not made this statement with any feel ings of bitterness whatever, but after much prayer I felt that a statement of this kind was due the public, the cause of truth, my family and myself. A man who will do as this editor has done, violate so solemn an obligation, certainly shows himself thoroughly unregenerate and reprobate In the extreme. I am per fectly willing to let the final settlement of this matter be the forum of the public mind, where I think will be its place of arbitrament in its last analysis. It will all be settled In the providence of God. I leave the public to judge of alienism, if this editor is a sample. Wr. H. SHEARMAN. Some Irrigation. Methods. Dr. N. G. Blalock. the Walla Walla fruitgrower, has published a reply in the Irrigation Age to a query regarding the capacity of small ditches at different grades. He says: "A miner's inch is suf ficient to irrigate an acre of arid land well, and of seml-arld land two acres or more. The lateral should be run on the highest ground on tie farm, or, If a ridge or 'hogback' runs through the farm, the head ditch should run on it, and then irri- gate both ways from it. The best and most economical way to get water out of this head ditch is to make boxes of 1U inch lumber, four inches square inside and four feet long, with slide gate at one end. Place this box in the bank of the ditch so that the open end of the box is on a level with the bottom of the ditch, cover the box, pounding the dirt around the box so that the water will not cut through along side of box. Having ground prepared and ditches run, you raise the little gate, and allow just as much water to escape as you want, These boxes should be placed about one or two rods apart. Sow bluegrass along the bank of your ditch over these boxes, and you will soon have a beautiful sod which will not break. I have 400 acres prepared this way, and one man, who boards himself irrigates the entire 400 acres and does it well for $1 per day. This land Is nearly all in orchard, and aU in fruit trees, veg etables and meadow. I irrigate from one to three times per week, according to the season. Two hundred to 400 yards is as long as irrigation ditches should be made. Make other head ditches and boxes in the first place. Another way is to build a flume for the head ditch, and simply bore auger holes every rod or two, instead of the small boxes. TO THE PUBLIC The Oregonlan charges for all meeting notices, of whatever description. Calls for meetings, general invitations to public gatherings, etc, come under this head. Special rates, however, will be given on meeting notices of certain character, when it is announced, that no price of admission will be charged. AUCTION SALES TODAY.
