UNIVERSITY OF ORGEGON. Eugene.
Oct. 27. (Special.) Under the head
ing. -Religion on the Campus." the
Oregon Emerald, the official student
paper at the University of Oregon,
came out today in Its first issue since
t-.e Inception of the now famous Howe
Jlount controversy, with an editorial
warmly supporting: Professor Howe and
criticising Rev. H. X. Mount, who as
sailed the professor from the pulpit
f the Central Presbyterian Church in
Eugene Sunday night. Mount had ob
jected to the liberal views of Professor
Howe as expressed in a lecture after
class hours, which lecture Rev. Mr.
Mount attended.
Influences Would Dictate.
"If the preachers persist in their
attempt to dictate to the university
faculty In this matter." says one of
the significant paragraphs of the edi
torial, "there can be only one result
the college Y. M. C. A. will be swept
away in the general ruin. This will
not be the result of opposition to the
association itself, but to the necessity
that all brands of religion be treated
alike in a non-sectarian school."
"Professor Howe is not nearly so
unorthodox as President Taft.' says
the editorial again, "but how can any
one state with certainty that the peo
ple who elected him are not also here
tic"7" The editor of the Emerald Is Wil
son C. Nicholas, the son of H. B. Nich
olas, a Portland attorney. He Is a sen
'Jor. and besides editing the paper. Is
prominent In debating and other col
lege activities. The Emerald's editorial
is regarded as reflecting faculty and
etudent sentiment generally.
Following Is the editorial:
Influences Would Iiotat.
One of the hardest tasks In modern edu
cational lnatltutions Is to fre them from
the dictation of outside Influences such as
capital, labor, church, or state. The ellBhtert
tendencr In this direction will eliminate"
the most independent thinkers, for such
survival of the. fittest" leave only foola
and diplomat. Certain peraona In Kugene
and elsewhere have In the past attempted
'to Influence th University of Oregon and
ther will doubtless attempt to do so In the
future. This, however, la another matter.
The present trouble la with some local
preachers While It la practically lmpos
' eible to dednce from their platitudinous ex
plmatlons any definite statement of their
position, it seems to be only a recurrence of
the ancient prejudice that refuses to tolerate
free d. scission of religion. This may be an
unfair Inference but It la the only consultant
ground on which they can stand.
They can hardly confine their opposition
to the general subject of rella-lon on tha
campna, for It was there before Professor
Hoae aven mentioned the subject. It Is on
the campus every time the T. M. C A.
hoIl3 a meeting. Every time they hold a
Bible class religion la on the campus. The
professors take part In It every tiro one
of them teacnee one of these classea When
Professor Sweetser lectured before the T.
M. C A. a few days ago. religion was on
the campus. If the preachers object to
religion on the campus, why did they not
object to him?
Religion Not Objected To.
Bear In mind that "on the campus" la
not "In the class room." Of course when
the church refuses to give up Its favorite
d"grr.as In the face of advancing science.
1? 1 hard for an Institution founded -pre??lv
for research Into and propogatlon
of eternal truth to keep silent. Nevertheless,
the subject la kept out of the close room
as much as possible.
The present discussion, however, was not
In class and therefore It is an exact par
allel to the religious sorvlcea of the Y. M.
C A with the one exception that it wa of
a .different brand. This shows the real
trouble. The preachera do not object to
religion on the campus and do not pretend
to. If they could they would make every
one major In Bible study. What they ob
ject to Is unorthodox religion, religion that
ees nil truth no more in toe Bibl than In
the Vedas. religion that believes the science
end philosophy of todar superior to that of
.TOtM) years ago. If Ralph Waldo Emerson
were "at the University of Oregon, they
would object to him. If Tom Paine visited
the campus, they would "burn him at the
stake."
if the preachers rerslst in their attempt
to dictate to the University faculty In this
matter, there can be only one result the
Y. M. C. A. will be swept away In the
sreneral ruin. Thl will not be the result
of opposition to the association Itself but
to the necessity that all brands of re
ligion be treated alike In a non-sectarian
school.
Christ Place-d Above Miracle.
These remarks conrern only general prin
ciples. We would hold them good if Pro
fessor Howe were an atheist. But he is not
an atheist. He Is not even antl-Christlan.
"if the truth were known he Is a better
christian than many of the preachers. He
Is one who puts the teachings of Christ
above belief In a miracle.
We do not wish to become involved In a
wrangle over particular creeds, however,
and will, therefore, not erltlciie the beliefs
that either of the parties uphold. There Is
only one other point then that it is neces
sary to mention. While he refuses to accept
It as the fundamental difference between
Profeasor Howe and the Y. M. C. A.. Mr.
Mount does acknowledge that his main ob
jection lies In the fact that the professor
differs with the majority of people tn the
stale who are Chrietiana
Tart. Too, la Unorthodox.
As we have already demonstrated, thla Is
Immaterial. But there is no proof even
that it is true. Some of the greatest men,
among them President Eliot, of Harvard,
declare that Intellectual thinkers no longer
accept the orthodox doctrine. How do1 the
rtreachers know that a majority are on
their side? The matter has never been an
Issue for division, but until It is. they have
no right to assume how It would be de
cided. It may be unfair to use the Illustration
no more so than many we have heard: but
while the president of the United States Is
an avowed opponent of the so-called ortho
dox belief, how can anyone state with cer
tainty that the people who etected him are
not also heretics? Professor Howe is not
nearly so unorthodox as President Taft.

Builder of Mysterlons Railroad Vis
Its Eastern Oregon and Discusses
Plans of DeTelopment.
FENDLP7TOS. Or.. Oct. 27. 'Special.)
That the mysterious North Coast road
will one day extend down Into Central
Oregon and that possibly Pendleton will
be on his official railroad map, was the
statement mlo In this' city yesterday
by Hobert EJ. Strahorn, the mysterious
promoter of the mysterious railroad.
Strahorn waa on his way from Omaha
to Spokane, where he was due for an
Important engagement, and stopped off
here in the hope of being able to make
the trip across country from this city
to his bridge site across the Columbia
River near the mouth of the Snake, but
was unable to secure transportation. He
said his object In wishing to make this
trip was a (fTesire to secure first-hand
information as to the possible resources
of the country in case he should decide
to build a branch line down into this
part of Oregon.
He also said that he was now looking
for an easy grade across the Blue Moun
tains to the Snake River near its Junc
tion with the Salmon River and declared
that a party of engineers was now at
work in the mountains east of Milton antl
Walhi Walla, looking for such a possible
route.
In speaking of the Central Oregon
proposition, he gave out no promise of
early railroad construction, but declared
that as soon as the main lines were
established his company would immedi
ately oegln to reach out lta feeders and
that undoubtedly one of these would tap
Central Oregon. He said, however, that
he believed that part of this state might
reouiro a certain amount of development
before the construction of a third road
into that region would be Justified.

by the State Board of Equalization. This

Formally Opens Fair.
ALBANY, Or., Oct. 27. (Special.) Five
of the leading counties of the Willamette
Valley were represented in a magnificent
display of 200 boxes of perfect apples
when the third annual Apple Fair opened
this afternoon. There are apples on dis
play from Marlon. Lane, Benton, Polk
and Linn Counties.
A great many visitors from all parts
of the Valley arrived today to attend the
fair and Albany Is donning holiday attire
In honor of the event. Scores of business
houses-are decorated with the fair colors
and present attractive windows, in all of
which splendid apples are exhibited in
both beautiful and unique ways. The
apple will certainly be king In Albany
during the three days the fair is In
progress.
Only three counties will compete for
the grand prize of a J100 cup and $50 In
cash. These will be Marlon. Benton and
Lane. Linn County has an immense ex
hibit, but is barred from competing 1 for
this prize and Polk County has a large
display of Individual exhibits, but hasn't
the necessary number of boxes of differ
ent varieties to meet the requirements of
competition for the grand prize. Yam
hill County had announced an intention
to enter the competition for the best
county exhibit, but its display failed to
arrive today.
Plate Exhibits Attractive.
The fair is being held in the spacious
gymnasium of the Alco Club. On stands
ranged around one entire side and one
end of the big building stand the county
and community exhibits in boxes. A table
70 feet long holds the Individual exhibits
In boxes and another table of equal size
Is devoted entirely to the exhibit on
plates, making a splendid display. This
plate exhibit is by far the largest dis
play of the kind ever collected in the
Willamette Valley.
Besides the apple exhibits there are
some large and wonderful floral displays.
Ruef Bros., of Salem, have two large
tables filled with a magnificent exhibit of
flowers, including chrysanthemums, as
tors and potted plants, and George L.
Allen, of Lebanon, has an entire table
filled with dahlias of various colors and
kinds. Both of these exhibits are attract
ing great attention.
The most Interesting exhibit of the fair,
from an educational viewpoint. Is pre
sented by the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege. It consists of a series of charts and
pictures, showing the nature of diseases
in apples, peaches, cherries, vegetables
and garden flowers. One Instructor from
the school Is on hand all of the time to
explain the exhibit and It is expected
the charts and instruction will help fruit
men materially In fighting orchard pests.
Judge Stewart Presides at Opening.
Some Albany and Portland firms have
erected and equipped attractive adver
tising booths, with good displays, and
these well-arranged' and neatly equipped
places add to the beauty and attractive
ness of the fair.
The opening programme of the fair was
held this afternoon. C. H. Stewart, ex
County Judge, vice-president of the
executive committee of the fair, presid
ed. In the absence of. J. P. Wallace,
Mayor, Frank J. Miller. State Senator,
representing the City Council, made the
address of welcome, which formally
opened the fair. Musical numbers were
presented and the principal address of
the afternoon was given by Professor
Peck, of the Oregon Agricultural College,
who spoke on "Landscape Gardening and
Horticulture."
This evening a splendid musical and
literary programnfe was presented to the
fair visitors at the Alco Club by local
people. The programme was under the
efficient direction of J. C. Irvine, of this
city.

MARSHFIELD, Or., Oct. 27. (Special.)
The conynittee appointed to confer with
the Commissioners of the Port of Coos
Bay regarding the Government's action
on the improvement of the bar, have
agreed upon a plan of action. There is
general objection to the dredging of the
bar as recommended by the engineers, be
cause of the belief that it will not be
practlc&L Jetty improvement Is wanted.
It has been decided to send a committee
to Portland to confer with the engineers
with a view of having the recommenda

with the Oregon Congressional delegation.
The result of the visit to Portland will
probably have much to do with the action
of a committee which will later be sent

Columbia Southern Irrigating Com
pany's Procrastination Brings
Government's Threat to
Reconyejr Patents.
SALEM. Or.. Oct. 27. (Special.) The
State Land Board has received notice
from the Interior Department at Wash
ing to show cause within 60 days why
75C0 acres of the 11.659.48 patented to
the state In the Columbia Southern proj
ect should not be re-oonveyed to the
Government. A special agent of the de
partment has reported to the Government
that "nearly the whole of the lands so
patented to the state were patented by
reason of misrepresentation, and that
said lands are either entirely unre
claimed, are too high for reclamation
under the system by which it was pro
posed to Irrigate them, are unfit for culti
vation, if irrigated, or are in a poslstlon
where no water Is available for their
irrigation."
The desert land board has taken the
matter up with the Columbia Southern
Irrigation Company and will endeavor to
induce the company to proceed with Its
work under some definite agreement
with the state or dispose of its equity
In the project.
Property Looked Over.
While State Engineer Lewis says that
no definite offer has been received for
the project. It Is admitted that the prop
erty has been looked over by several
concerns that have the financial standing
to carry the work to a successful con
clusion and that there will be no diffi
culty in the state completing the project
if the present troubles can be cleared
away.
Heretofore there has been much diffi
culty in getting the stockholders of the
irrigation company together to egre
upon anything. The matter has been
hanging fire for several years. The In"
terlor Department approved Oregon Seg
regation List No. 13. embracing 27.000
acres of land, in January, 1904. On Jan
uary 19. 1905, 11,600 acres were patented
to the state upon representation of the
state officials. The engineer of the com
pany was at that time employed by the
state as Its engineer and some time later
the state learned, it Is alleged, that there
had been fraud, and brought suit against
the company to annul the contract on
this ground. r
Court Finds for Company.'
The Federal Court found for the com
pany on the ground that the state, by
accepting the report of W. A. Laldlaw,
president of the company and also se
lecting agent for the state in this matter,
had been a party to the fraud, if fraud
there had been, but which, however, had
not been conclusively proven.
By adopting a new and more vigorous
policy in handling the project in the
future, the desert land board hopes to
