THE MQRNTXft OREGONIA, MONDA FEBRUARY 11, 1901,
DIRECT PRIMARY BILL
BINGHAM MEASURE INTRODUCED
I OREGON LEGISLATURE.
It Amends the Anstrnllnn Ballot
Law, and Provides Three 3Ietli-
od of Nominations.
SALEM, Or., Fab. 19. BJnsham's direct
primary bill has been introduced in the
House by Representative Nottingham, and
In the Senate by Senator Inrnan, and re
ferred to the committee on elections.
There are several other bills on the same
subject, and it will probably be determined
exwi if any of them will pass. The
Bingham bill Is amendatory of the Aus
tralian ballot law. It provides that can
didates for office may be nominated by a
political convention, a committee of eleqt-o-s,
by petition as heretofore, or by the
direct primary method. The sections
which bear directly upon the latter plan
are as follows:
"Section 71 On Monday, sir weelps next
preceding the first Moncay in June, 1002,
and biennially thereafter, a direct pri-
mary election shall be held in the several
ejection precincts in the state, in accord
ance with this act, and the other election
lwa of Oregon, for the following pur
poses :
First To enable the electors to choose,
d'rectly by ballot, one candidate in the
i ame of each political party, and one
iiunpartlsan or popular candidate, if de
sired, for each office, to be voted for at
the next general election, the candidates
thus chosen to be known and designated
as the direct irimary candidates, or nomi
nees of the respeotlve parties.
'Second To enable the electors, like
wise, in years when a United Stats Sen
ator is to be chosen by the next Legis
lative Assembly, to choose a candidate
in the name of each political party, and
tae nonpartisan candidate, if desired, to
be -voted for throughout the state at the
next general election of said office of
Lnited States Senator from Oregon, as a
means of instructing their representati es
in the Legislatue, which candidate so
chosen shall be placed upon the official
ba.lot at the following general election,
and voted for and canvassed and certified
V same as in the case of Governor.
'Third To enable the electors, likewise,
in jears when a President and Vice
Tresident of the United States are to be
ch isen, to choose the proper number of
representative men as delegates from the
state, to attend the National convention
of each party for the purpose of choosing
and nominating candidates for President
and Vice-President of the United States.
The votes to be canvassed and certified
the same as in the case of state nfflnfirs
Fourth To elect direct primary county
and sta.te committeemen for the respective
pulltlcal parties, to serve for two years
from the first day of May following, to
manage and conduct the affairs of the
respective parties other than making the
nominations. There shall be nominated
and elected at the direct primary election
for each party one such county commit
teeman for each election precinct, which
cast 100 or more ballots at the last general
election, and the County Court shall com
bine smaller precincts so as to give them
a joint committeeman. There shall like
wise be nominated and elected fnr noTi
party one state committeeman for each
State Senator, and the electoral districts

FIGHTING WITH A HATCHET
DR. E. P. HILL OX THIS METHOD OF
ACCOMPLISHING REFORM.
Says Startling: Displays of Force
Often Seem Necessary to Aroase
Society to Action.
Rev. Dr. E. P. Hill preached last even
ing at the First Presbyterian Church on
the topic' "Fighting Intemperance "With
a Hatchet and Some Other Things." .He
chose as his text the following:
John ii:15: "And when be' had made a
scourge of small cords. He drove them
all out of the temple, and the sheep and
the oxen, and poured out the changers
of money, and overthrew the tables."
The speaker said: "These words bring
before us a very lawless scene. Some
men who had been given permission hy
thcjge in authority to trade within the
precincts of the temple were quietly en
gaged In their licensed business, when
suddenly there appeared a man who had
always shown the utmost reverence for
the law. "Without stopping to lodge a
complaint with a Justice of the Peace, he
lifted a whip and said, 'Begone.' The
cattle did not belong to him, but he struck
their flanks and sent them flying. The
money belonged to others, but he took
hold of the edge of the tables and reck
lessly overturned them, so that the
shekels went ringing and rolling every
where. Strange to say, the money
changers made no resistance. Their con
sciences made cowards of them. It was
riot because the reformer was stronger
than they, or that his weapon made them
afraid, for his whip was only some rushes
bound together. He probably did not
strike them at all. "But they fled before
his blazing wrath. They Instinctively rec
ognized that to resist "him would be to
oppose not only a man, hut right and
Justice anfl God.
"Now I have an Idea there were some
men standing near, some very respectable-looking
men, some men who suddenly
conceived an almgst violent regard for
the supremacy of law and order, who
were very much shocked by what was
done. They looked at one another with
expressions of Indignation and said, 'Is
not this dreadful? A man who claims to
be a prophet and who urges people to love
one another, acting In this unloving way.
He Is angry, and "no religious man should
be angry. He defies the law, and of all
people in the world a religious person
should reverence the law. Perhaps, he has
a brother or art uncle who gets drunk. He
would better go home and attend to his
brother or uncle, before he begins to tell
others how they should act.'
'There are some people who try to make
us think that a good Christian is an
effeminate-looking creature, sitting on a
cloud, with his eyes turned upward, and
with a palm branch In his clasped hands.
There are those who Insist that preach
ing the gospel mpans simply talking of
a man who lived 2000 years ago and Is to
day somewhere off in 'the sky. There are
not a few who incline to the opinion that
when a -Christian speaks of sin he must
tell of Noah's drunkenness, and Abra
ham's falsehood, and David's adultery,
but that it Is sensationalism or politics
to hint that some of the people in his
town are dissipated, or Impure, or dishon
est. It strikes mo that we have been
working the sweet and loving aspects of
religion considerably too hard of late
years. We have been talking almost al
together of God's love and .forbearance.
Suppose we say a word now and then f
God's- justice and his punishment of sin.
Even an earthly father knows there can
be no moral government in a home where
no discipline Is exercised. "We have been
arousing sympathy for the wrongdoer by
telling what a bad father he had, what
a vicious neighborhood he lived in, and
w hat fearful obstacles he has had to over
come. Is it not wise now and then to
say something of the man's own stubborn
ness in resisting every uplifting appeal,
and to tell how ho deliberately chose to
go to the far-away country of the prodi
gal? "We have cited the example of Jesus
to show how they may conquer the world
for God by lifting a cup of water to
parched lips, and by using the art of lov
ing persuasion. Is it not time to tell the
story of Jesus in the temple, using the
argument of force to stir the sensibilities
of those whose consciences were so seared
that nothing else could affect them, lift
ing his hand, not In benediction, but to
strike, and appealing from man's author
ity, which was being used to degrade men,
to Go'd's law, given that man might be
free?"
The speaker then referred to certain
criticisms which are always made when
an attempt is made to purify the life of a
community. He said: "A few weeks ago,
when an attempt was being made to en
force the gambling laws in this city,
some people asked, 'Why try to "enforce
such laws when we all know that the
evil can never be eradicated?' A dole
ful voice came rolling up from Astoria
Informing us that gambling had been go
ing on since the da.ys of John Jacob
Astor, and would continue until the end
of lime; therefore, it was useless to at
tempt to do anything against it. Sup
pose you try that argument in another
case, where an attempt Is being made
to clean up something or somebody.
Imagine- a man who has not washed him
self for six months! He Is getting dirtier
every day. He Is becoming so disagree
able that one does not want to be In
the same field with him. Suppose you
have made up your mind to endure the
unpleasantness of being Jn his neighbor
hood long enough to attempt to Induce
him to do something to make himself
more presentable. You draw near, and
say, 'Loolc here, why don't you wash up?
You are fearfully dirty, and you are get
ting more offensive every day.' And
suppose the object should look at you
with a lazy leer and reply, 'I know I am
not quj,te as attractive as I mlgqt be,
but I have been this Way for six months.
Besides. I could not get all the d'lrt off
In one washing. So I guess I will not try
to get any of It off.' "What would you
think of such reasoning? And yot that
Is precisely the argument that men have
offered with serious faces in this city
whenever an attempt has been made to
wash some of the dirt of intemperance,
or impurity, or gambling, from the life
of the community. The papers told us
that 500 gamblers left the city in pne
week, after it was" decided to close the
gambllnghouses. Surely any man who
can get rid of that proportion of crime In
one ablution Is justified Jn making an
effort to keep clean,."
Renin rk on Mrs. Xntion.
In referring to Mrs. Nation, Dr. Hill
said: "Now, assuming that she and the
Kansas saloonkeepers are both lawless,
is it too much to ask that Doth be equally
condemned? And yet that Is not what Is
being done. Men say, That crank ought
to be in jail. But hDW about those who
have been defying the law for years? "We
read, 'It is a dreadful thing to allow
such a woman loose In a community to
encourage disrespect for order. But how
about the saloonkeepers and the officials?
I have seen a great many critcisms of
Mrs. Nation, but the condemnations of
the other lawbreakers are far between.
If both shall be condemned alike, there
will be no occasion for a reformer to gD
forth with her hatchet. It Is a simple
matter of history that such people as
this reformer have always had a large
place in the extension of the kingdom of
righteousness. Some such startling dis
play of force seems necessary now and
then to arouse -society to a sense of its
responsibility. John Brown was a law
breaker. Men who loved their ease held
up their Jiands in horror when he. with
this little company, captured the arsenal
at Harper's Ferry. The old man was put
to death. And yet somehow we Insist
that he was one of the nation's heroes.
"Whose heart is so dead that he will not
Join In the battle cry:
" 'John Brown's body" Ilea a mouldrins in
..the grave,
His soul iSj marching on?' "
EVOLUTION AND RELIGION.
Rev. TV. R. Lord's Reflections Upon
Recent DIscnssionsi
Yesterday morning, at the Unitarian
Church, Rev: W. TL Lord spoke upqn
"Evolution and Religion; Some Reflec
tions Upon Recent Discussions." He took
two suggestive texts from the teachings
of Jesus; first, "And. he called to him a
little child and set him in the midst of
them, and said, 'Except ye turn, and be
come as little children, ye shall in no
wise enter into the kingdom of heaven';"
second, "Blessed are the teachable
(meek), for theirs is the kingdom pf
heaven."
Mr Lord said, ,'rt substance:
"In the first place, let us be. religious
In our attitude toward the subject of
evolution itself. That religious attitude
is teachableness, the spirit of the little
child. No more perfect illustration pf
this spirit can be found than In Mr. Dar
win himself. Most frequently this qual
ity is wanting In those who oppose Mr.
Dirwln's theory. Prejudice and dogmat
ism are bars tQ truth. We should not
often say 'It is, or It Is not, so,' but rath
er prefer the habitual statement of Stan
ley Hall, one of the greatest living ex
perimental psychologists I think so, or
'As far as we have gone. Dogmatism
becomes no one. least of all those who
know little or nothing about, a subject.
If defenders of old theories should not
be prejudiced and dogmatic, not at all so
shpuld be the scientists, and yet they,
with some notable exceptions, are qpen
to the charge. "We alL-who have accepted
the new science are in danger of pride
and conceit of our modernness in
thought. Blessed are the teachable for
they shall inherit the world of knowl
edge. 'With this spirit iet us ask, What is
evolution? It Is the theory which sup
poses that the universe has come to be
what It Js by almost an etern'ty long,
gradual unfolding or becoming, from the
expanded gases in space to the solid plan
ets. Upon this earth, from a fiery ball
to the present condition, with all Its com
plex life, vegetable, animal and human;
a process of orderly development, one
thing coming put of another, ever in an
ascending scale, from gas to man.
"The evolution theory Is as old as
Greek thought. The original contribution
that Darwin made to the evolutionary
theory was In the biological department.
Greek thought was speculative, his was
scientific, and aroused universal Interest
In the world of science L-id philosophy
alike. As great as are the achievements
of modern science in this respect, scient
ists should not forget that even ancient
philosophy anticipated this modern hy
pothesis. President Schurman says:
'Among the Greeks we ind these fine
constituent elements of the modern evo
lutionary hypothesis: The belief In the
Immeasurable antiquity of man, the con
ception of a progressive movement Jn the
life of nature, the notion of the survival
of the fittest, and the twofold assumption
that any thing or any animal may be
come another since all things are at bot
tom the same.
"The opposing theory of how the uni
verse came to be what It is is called cre
atlonlsm, a theory In which oGd Is con
ceived to have created by flat each suc
cessive form of life.
''When we compare the two, the evolu
tionary theory appeals to the man of
thought. Thus the thinkers In all the
ages had anticipated science. 'Creatlon
lsm' is allied to magic, and seems more
wonderful because It Is abrupt and unex
pected. It is natural, therefore, that It
should have been the accepted theory in
the childhood of the human race.
"Evolution is now so generally accept
ed that It is assumed in nearly all the
universities and colleges In the world,
save In some of those that are under the
auspices of traditional theologies. Iherp
afe some small sectarian colleges, here
and there, where a real teacher in science
can remain only by the most guarded
statements." Here Mr. Lord referred to
James Lane Allen's "Reign of Law."
Continuing, he said:
"In all departments of learning, the
evolutionary theory is assumed; in all
the special sciences, In the study of man.
In his institutions, the state, and the
church, and why? Because no other law
so well explains, gives unity to the di
verse facts of the universe, including
human history.
"Those who oppose the acceptance of
this hypothesis have been, from the first,
mostly of the same class that opposed
the Copernlcan revolutionary conception
of the universe and Newtonian law of
gravitation, namely, the traditional reli
gionists few other?. Agass'z. is quoted
as an opponent, but he lived while the
evolutionary, theory was young In sci
ence; nearly all the grounds of his oppo
sition have been removed since his death.
Were he alive today, he would undoubt
edly accept the hypothesis. There Is rea
son why those who are prepossessed by
a primitive theology should oppose evo
lution. It seems to me to be revolution
ary of the theology upon which the or
thodox church Is built. If our honest
brethren could only see what a universe
of sublime order, progress and promise
they might enter, If only they would for
sake the. little world of contradictions
and spiritual horrors the ancjent, but
well-meaning, fathers built for them!
"What of religion In the evolutionary
theory? Religion, in simplest terms, Is
the soul's consciousness of God. To the
intelligent man, evolution seema to me
to be Of very much help. Evolution ad
mits of three attitudes of mlhd the ma
terialistic, the agnostic and the thelstlc.
The materialistic explanation of the uni
verse has no standing now n the court
of science or philosophy, I wrote recent
ly to Columbia University in Ne.w York
City to the department of. philosophy for
the most recent works upon materialism.
The reply qame, 'there are none. Ma
terialism is no longer recognized by mpd
ern philosophy.' Mr, Huxley says: 'Berke
ley and idealism Is more rational than
materialism.'
"The chief exponent of agnosticism is
Herbert Spencer, "but he confesses that
he stands In the presence of an infinite
power.
"The view held by all the great philos
ophers outside the field of dogmatic the
ology Is that this infinite power is the God
of "absolute will and reason the philoso
phers In nearly every chair In European
and American universities, In Harvard
in Yale, In Cornell, in Michigan, and
so on.
"These are the specia'l helps that evo
lution gives to the religious life: First, It
brings God near to man; the thought Is
of an Imminent God. All phenomena are
the immediate manifestation of his pres
ence. 'The thoughfls not that God made
the world, but that-he Js making the
world. He It Is who pulls and pushes in
that manifestation that we call matter;
he -. Is who pulsates and thrills In all

far from any one of us.' The old thought
is the thought of an absentee God, -who
made and tends his world. In the new
thought, he Is truly 'nearer than breath

"In the second place, evolution rescues
the lower forms of existence from a
sphere of practical atheism. It does not
take man down. It ilfts all below up.
As Browning says: 'God made all the
creatures, and gave them one love and
one fear, to show we and they are his
children, one family here.
"Dr. McLean said in his paper' that
evolution was antagonistic to a true phi
losophy. The trouble with Dr. McLean's
philosophy is that his philosophy is not a
truly spiritual philosophy. His GJod is
not Inside of his own universe.

Georgia "Watermelon Heresy.
Chicago Journal.
The editor of the Atlanta Constitution
felicitates himself on the prospects of a
large watermelon crop and quotes a
Northern newspaper to show how much
more useful -It can be made than it Is
at present. Tho case Is cited of a New
England farmer who pickles the rinds of
his watermelons, feeds the pulp to his
pigs, and sells the seeds "to Chinese com
munities, where they are a very popular
delicacy."
Nearly all the Atlanta Constitution says
is entitled to respectful consign Ulon, but
In this case we fear the edltoi has per
mitted his. .thrlfUness to overcome bis
state natrlotlsm. The Georsla water-
melon is nn exquisite, not to say heav- j
enly, product, and is held in reverence by
high and low, by rich and poor, by black
and white. The Georgian himself takes
pride in the way he eats It, which is by
broaklng It open with his nst, pushing- his
face into the luscious Interstice, regard
less of moisture, and coughing the seeds
gratefully at the birds. "We do not krtow
whether the Constitution editor tackles
his watermelon In this way, liut even if
he does not, we insist that It Is the only
true way to enjoy one. The state pride
of the average Georgian is vast. He
would regard a person who murdered a
melon with machinery, or approached It
nicely, for personal Use, with a knife ard
fork, with about the same degree of favor
sfcs an Englishman view's the countryman
who shoots foxes. The grosser commer
cial proposition Is even more preposter
ous. The Georgian might "stand for"
pickled rinds, but' not for the man who
gave, any part of a melon to a Chinaman
or a pig. He would want to lynch him.
Petitions- aro being circulated in the
country around Colfax asking the 'Leg
islature to make a flat rate on wheat
shipments, placing the maximum at ?3 60
per ton. r
