THE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATUJIDY, FEBRUARY 26, 1910.
TIRADE AIMED AT
STATE UNIVERSITY
Oregon "Rotten," Declares
Rev. F. E. Oliver, Incensed
at College Paper.
EXPECTS TO MAKE FIGHT
Evangelist Says He Will Ask That
School Be Cleaned Out or Wiped
Out, but Tells Students He Has
Talked to Fools Before.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
Or., Feb. 26. (Special.) "I am not
surprised at anything coming from an
Institution as rotten as your State
University. There are some fine
Christian young people in that uni
versity, but there is another c rowd
that is as rotten as hell. I am billed
to hold metings in several of the lead
ing towns of Oregon, and unless a cer
tain bunch is cleaned out of the Univer
sity of Oregon. I propose to take
the stump aginst this rottenness."
Referring in this manner to stu
dents and members of the University
of Oregon faculty who have been at
tending his meetings or do not pro
fess orthodox religious views. Rev.
French E. Oliver, a traveling evange
list who has been conducting revivals
in Eugene for several weeks created
a. sensation last night, when he de
clared from the pulpit of his meeting
house that he would preach against
the university throughout th& state.
Attack Made on Tuft.
"When I go to other towns, I am
going to advocate one of two things,"
Bald Oliver, "either that it be cleaned
out or wiped out."
Oliver is the preacher who gained
considerable notoriety here last week
by making a violent attack on Presi
dent Taft because he is a Unitarian.
In the course of his sermon he de
clared that the people of the United
States had disgraced themselves by
electing Taft, a Unitarian, to the
President's chair. The statement was
greeted with applause by some mem
bers of his congregation, but several
others got up and left the hall in the
middle of the sermon.
Oliver also bitterly denounced Eu
gene Unitarians in another sermon
last week, when he said, "I would
rather see a saloon opened here in Eu
gene than a Unitarian Church, and I'll
tell you why. You can vote out a sa
loon, but you can't vote out the Uni
tarian Church. The Unitarian Church
Is doing more to spread the doctrines
of Infidelity than any other agency."
Since these denunciations, . the mem
bership of the local Unitarian Church,
which was started here only a month
ago by Rev. Arthur Hayes Sargent, of
Boston, is said to have nearly doubled,
many of those joining having been uni
versity students.
; Calls Faculty "Jug-Headed."
For some time Rev. Mr. Oliver has
been attacking the university in his ser
mons. Recently he spoke of professors
there as "jug-headed" and "empty," and
Monday, evening, when several university
men, not members of the church, attend
ed one of his metings on the invitation of
Iho secretary of the Y. M. C. A., he de
nounced them to his congregation, say
ing: "I have talked to fools before."
What led directly to his attack last
nigr.i, nowever, was an editorial para
graph appearing in the Oregon Emerald,
the student newspaper, which is edited
by W. C. Nicholas, of Portland. The
editorial was as follows:
"The evangelist who is holding forth
in the big barn down on Tenth street con
tinues, with little regard for the fitness
of things, to make suggestive remarks
about the character and intellect of the
university faculty and students. His in
fluence might be greater with them if he
would quit talking about the 'vengeance'
of a supposedly loving God and attempt
ing to appear scientific by referring to
the cetacea (a kind of whale) as a land
animal, and the zodiac as a star. So
far as we know of no university student
has been converted."
"Either Liar or Fool."
"The man who wrote that is either a
liar or a fool, and he Is probably both,"
said Oliver from his pulpit. "I am not
surprised at anything coming from an
Institution as rotten as your state uni
versity." In the sermon referred to in the edi-.
torial on "Noah's Ark," where the min
ister is said to have spoken of a cetacea
as a land animal, Oliver had said that
when Noah was building his ark, he sup
posed skeptics had come around and
made fun of him. Noah, he said, had
"sicked" a cetacea at thorn. The minister
explained to his congregation last night
that he meant this as a joke.
There is much feeling among students
at the university against what they de
clare are the unwarranted reflections on
their character made by Oliver. Great
care has been taken by them, however,
that there shall be no attempt to interfere
in any way with his services.
Oliver directed an attack against mem
bers of the city School Board recently af
ter they had passed a resolution to the
effect that no address of a religious char
acter should be allowed in the public
schools. It was understood that this was
pasBed for the benefit of the preacher,
who had made arrangements to address
the- studentB of the city high school. In
a jermon afterwards Oliver told his con
gregation that he hoped they would have
enough sense not to elect another "bunch
f Jackasses" to the School Board.
Oliver is scheduled to give an address
"to. women only" Saturday afternoon.
His last sermon will be preached, here
Sunday, after which he leaves to fill con
tracts for revival meetings at Ashland
and Corvallis.
SALOONS WILL PAY $1000
Higher Fee Will Close Several in
Oregon City.
OREGON CITY. Or.. Feb. 25. (Spe
cial.) Increase in the license fee for
retail liquor houses has practically
been determined by the City Council,
and an ordinance has been introduced
raising the annual license from $600 to
$1000. This will probably mean that
six or seven of the saloons' in Oregon
City will be compelled to close their
doors within the next few months.
It i-s believed that the Council has
adopted this means to reduce the num
ber of saloons without impairing the
revenue the city receives from licenses.
LOWER RATE IS SOUGHT
Association Wants Cut in Freight
On Seed Oysters.
SOUTH END, Wash.. Feb. 25. (Spe
cial.) onwhat more than a year ago
the- Northwest Oystergrowers' Association
was organized in thle city with Wallace
Stuart, of the Tokeland Oyster Company,
as president, and H. C. Andressen, of
the Stony Point Oyster Company, as sec-retary-treaeurer.
The association was
organized to secure- a reduction in the
freight rate on seed oysters shipped from
the Atlantic seaboard to Wllla-pa Harbor
and Puget Sound. The established rat
is $2.20 and the demand is for a rate of
$1.50. whioh roads east of Chicago have
now signified their willingness to grant,
but the Western roads hold out for the
present tariff.
A meeting of the association, attended
by representatives from every oyster
company in the Northwest, has Just .been
held in this city to confer on" this matter
as the time for importation of ssed is
nearly at hand. At this meeting it was
determined to take the matter up with
the State Railroad and the Interstate
Commerce Commissions. Telegrams and
letters have already been sent to these
bodies as well as to Eastern shippers.
Two years ago more than 100 carloads of
Eastern seed were imported and planted
in this bay; last year less than 50 car
loads were imported, and, unless a better
rate is granted, the number will probably
be still less this year.

Has Increase of Drunkenness.
DAYTON, Wash., Feb. 25. (Special.)
That "wets" are furnishing liquor to
men to create an Impression that
drunkenness has not decreased in the
"dry" regime in Dayton, is the instance
of persistent rumors. With the local
option election set for March 29, drunk
enness is Increasing daily, and in view
of the bitterness betwen the "wets" and
"drys" and the warmth of the cam
paign, it is declared the "wets" are to
use this as an argument for the de
feat of locaIOption.
The latest arrest for drunkenness
was made last night by Marshal
George Dorr. "Bud" Pettyjohn was
locked up after he had created wild ex
citement on Main street. The trial is
set for Saturday and in the meantime

who furnished Pettyjohn, who has' for
years been on the list of Prohibitionists,
with whisky.

of C. A. Walters and N. M. Howell, who
were tried last Saturday for giving
liquor to William Dwyer, a barber,
found drunk on Main street.

BAKER CITY'S RATE
CONTENTION HEARD
Special Expert Argues for
Schedule Based on Pro
portionate Service-
MANY REDUCTIONS ASKED
Success Would Mean Change in
Rate-Making for .Whole Country.
Road Says That, Other Cities
Have Equal Claims.
BAKER CITY, Or.; Feb. 25. In a
hearing before Special . Examiner
George F. Brown, representing the In
terstate Commerce Commission, In this
city. Baker. City submitted evidence in
support of a contention that freight
rates to this city should be based upon
a proportional service charge. Several
Baker City shippers, as well as officials
of the O. R. & N., were questioned in
detail.
The case is the first brought before
the Interstate Commerce Commission
upon that contention alone, and if suc
cessful, will mean the establishment of
a different system of . railroad rate
making throughout the United States.
Citizens' League Brings Action.
The case is that of ; the Citizens'
League et al., vs. the O. R..& N. and
42 other railroads, and the contention
made by the league is that consumers
in Baker City territory are -being dis
criminated against by the railroads. The
assertion is made that it is unjust for
Baker City merchants to pay freight
rates to terminal or seaport points and
then pay in addition local freight rates
back from .these points on shipments
of goods from the East. It is also
asked in the complaint that Baker City
be made a distributive point and a
rate enacted permitting this..
Using the rate to Portland from New
York as a basis of 100 per cent, it was
contended by Frank H. McCune, special
rate expert, who is in charge of the
case for Baker City, that Baker should
pay only 88 per cent of the Portland
rate. By the same system, the rate
from Omaha to Baker City would be
only 80 per cent of the rate to Port
land. At present Baker City pays rates
on an average 45 per cent greater than
Portland. Baker City contends that this
should be reduced to an average of ap
proximately 15 per cent less than the
Portland rate.
2141 Reductions Asked.
A table of 2141 items upon which re
duction was asked was submitted by
Mr. McCune. His testimony was intro
duced in written form and there was
no cross-examination. Mr. McCune also
Introduced testimony to indicate that
water competition was not a factor in
fixing rates.
The Baker City contention was com
batted by W. W. Cotton, head of the le
gal department for the railroad. He
argued that La Grande and Pendleton
had the same right to ask for rates
to make each of those cities a point
of distribution, and that the company
must treat all points alike.
The principal witnesses examined
were J. S. Stuchell, manager of the Ba
ker Clfy Wholesale Grocery Company;
D. W. French, manager of the Basche,
Sage Hardware Company, and George
Stoddard, of the Stoddard Lumber Com
pany. E. W. Coman, general freight
agent for the O. R. N. Company, also
was on the stand.
J. N. Tteal, of Portland, represented
the Coast and Portland shippers.
The testimony taken today will be
submitted to the Interstate Commerce
Commission.

health means cleanliness not only outside, but inside. It means
a clean stomach, clean bowels, clean blood, a clean liver, and
new, clean, healthy tissues. The man who is clean in this way
will look it and act it. He will work with energy and think
clean, clear, healthy thoughts.
He will never be troubled with liver, lung, stomach or blood
disorders. Dyspepsia and indigestion originate in unclean stom
achs. Blood diseases are found where there is unclean blood.
Consumption and bronchitis mean unclean lungs.
Dr.- Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
prevents these diseases. It makes a man's insides clean
and healthy. It cleans the digestive organs, makes pure,
clean blood, and clean healthy flesh.
It restores tone to the nervous system, and cures nervous exhaustion
prostration. It contains no alcohol or habit-forming drugs.
Constipation is the most unclean uncleanliness. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant
lets cure it. They never gripe. Easy to take as candy.
