Phone Main 211 0 Twelve Year in Portland WILL COMPLETE JOB 0. R. & N. to Finish Troutdale Bonneville Project. REBUILDING ENTIRE LINE KxpeiHlitiire of $100,000 Involved in ncdm-lion of Grades and Elim ination of Curves on Stretch 20 Miles in Iongth. Work will lv resumed at once on the chansi of the O. R. X. main lino between Troutdale and Bonneville. Orders to this effect were Issued by General Manager O'Brien yes terday. He lias bad Iho resumption of this work under consideration for the past few days, and has decided to go ahead and complete the project. He ex pecttf the new line to be built within ths next ?o days. The work yet to be done in volves the expenditure of about WO0.000. t5ctinftnictlon of the main line ofjhe O. R. N. between the two points, a dis tance of about 20 mill, was commenced last year, and the contract was let to Iho Pacillo Coast Construction Company. The ta.k of rebuilding this piece of track was about half accomplished when the prders to stop work on all Harriman projects In this state were . issued early this Winter. One by one the different construction projects of the Harriman line have been taken up again, and It was expected that the rebuilding of the main lino between these points would be th next work to be resumed. "The work means the reconstruction of the main line." said Mr. O'Brien. "The changes will be very radical, the object V.eing to get away from the grades and curves of the original construction. In some places the change will cost the com Pnv a high as SWO.OOO a mile." The contract held by the Pacific Con struction Company includes the laying of track on the new' portion of the main line. The company will hecin assembling gangs of workmen at once, to take up the work where it whs dropped a few months ago, and will rush it through. The ground is hard anil there, is much rock where the new line Is being built, making it practi cable to keep the work up In rainy weath er as well as In dry. There are a number of deep rock cuts to be made, and eome hemy tilling to be done. This niece of track is now far from straight, and there are a number of hills the trains have to climb between Trout dale and Knnneville. With the comple tion of the work now ordered resumed, this part of the line will be one of the best stretches of track in the state. NOT CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MenHal Healing Kntlrely Different, Says Correspondent. PORTLAND. March 14. (To the F.dltor.) An article . entitled "Mental Healing Science," republished in your issue of the 14th, makes some statements which the writer is desirous of correct ing. The article states that Christian Science 'would never have been heard of had the medical profession recognized and adopted mental therapeutics." the various phases of which are now being exploited. Alfred Fallow in an article in the De cember issue of The Arena has dis tinctly delined the difference between Christian Silence and all methods of so called mental healing, from which we quote the following: It should be made clear that however significant the effects of mesmerism may be In support of the proposition that ap parent healing can be effected without the use of drugs, this does not establish any likeness or relation between Chris tian Science and such mesmeric or liyp notlc method of relieving pain. While the sick may be temporarily re lieved by any means whether mental or material which breaks the human belief of over-excited nerves or other material conditions, such temporary paralysis manifestly does not and cannot dem onstrate Christian Science. that Tight ness of thought or freedom which ex cludes disease. Seekers after truth are not to be blamed because in their course they cx iwritnenl with those mortal mind methods which from time to time have appealed to llioni. Nevertheless, over coming disease through hypnotism is lik mastering one error or 111 by accepting bondage to a greater ill. What the auneftt needs ia lueutsl ttXvriliaUuu. It argues nothing in favor of the utility and sanity of Christian Science that eminent philosophers have been able to effect certain results through mesmerism, since the basis of the latter system ia an asserted power of mortal mind while the basis of the former system is Truth, Science, that power of divine Mind, de clared by Jesus to be the means by which he hoalcd .the sick and raised the dead. Respecting this matter the Boston Her ald has said: "Mesmerism implies the exercise of despotic control, and is much more likely to be abused by its possessor, than otherwise employed, for the indi vidual or society." Subsequent to her discovery of Chris tian Science Mrs. Eddy has not believed that mesmerism can be used for good since its ill effects far exceed the advan tages of any imaginary temporary relief, and she has taught her students the unreality of its asserted power in order that they may not be influenced by it or be tempted to obtain a knowledge of how it is done. If. as is generally conceded, mesmerism, hypnotism, etc.. ma.v he utilised to accomplish evil results and to ' uetraua good, it is manifest that it is not of God, but is a product and result of mortal sinful belief, and this is the teaching of Science. Christian Science demonstrates that evil needs only to be understood in order to be shunned: that sin and disease are not overcome by human will. There is less need for exercising human will in the practice of Christian Science than there Is for darkness when we open our windows for light. Hence proofs of paganism and historical beliefs in mes merism as a means of healing are I IT i"oSieMve nor germane to a justification of power. The power and Justification of Christian Science is found alone In its divine origin and in the blessings it brings to all mankind. LUTHER P. CUDWORTH. Committee on Publication. LAYMEN IN MISSION WORK Will Hold 'Rally in Portland Last of March. The Laymen's Missionary Movement, an interdenominational work, is planning a rally in this city for March 30 and 31. The convention will be opened with a banquet at the Portland Hotel on the pight of March 30. at which more than 830 committeemen will be present. There will be several vis itors of prominence and the chief ad drers will be given by J. Campbell White, secretary of the National com mittee. The purpose of the campaign is for the general dissemination of knowl edge concerning the work of foreign missions. It is especially desired to reach as large a number of laymen as possible - and to interest them in the work. "The Laymen's Missionary Movement has spread with amazing rapidity nnd has secured the indorse ment of the foreign missionary boards of the United States and Canada. It has sent laymen abroad to investigate and has received interesting reports of their findings. Many public rallies have been held in important cities throughout the United States and Canada. The Presbyterian, Congrega tional, Methodist. Baptist and in fact nearly all of the evangelical churches have made large advance in their ap propriation for the work of missions. The Portland executive committee of this movement is made up as follows Dr. Henry Waldo Coe. chairman: E. N. Wheeler, secretary; G. F. Johnson. E. L. Thompson. Dr. George M. Wells, W. O. Smith, G. Evert Baker, J. A. Mc Ferron, J. C. Luckel. Til FDR SUITTER Court Refuses to Quash Mur der Charge. PLEAD IN CASE TOMORROW ROOSEVELT, THE EXTRAVAGANT Oae Reader Inquires Why The Ore Konlna Support the Administration. SPOKANE, Wash.. March 11. (To the Kditor. ) I always read The Ore ftonlan when I can pet it. and I have been at a los to understand how you can support the administration of our present Kmporor as you do. when he stands for all the iniquities that you oppose. To be explicit your editorla. on "Our Extravagant Government." in your issue of the 10th. calls for re trenchment, but Mr. Roosevelt wants more warships and hiprhcr appropria tions. You oppose the ship subsidy bill, but you must know that Mr. Tioosevelt has Indorsed it and even used pressure to push it through at previous sessions and I have no. doubt is doing; the same thing- now. Tou criticise the ever-increasing army of useless Federal officials, but you know that Mr. Roosevelt has added more of this class, some illegally, by the way. than any other President. You fiercely oppose the Aldrich bill, but your news columns have told your readers that Mr. Roosevelt has agreed to sigrn this bill. Now. why not be just a little con sistent? You oppose intelligently and ably many of the iniquities and errors of the Cxar. and at the same time maintain that he can do no wrong-. "Why not admit that he is by nature and Inclination a lawless man who acts on impulses and without due consid eration and has even been extrava gant in both private and public life? J. A. MOKUELk AUUfetJltt glt&tB for 11,00, Judge Clcland Rules That Indict ment Against Officer Who Shot Henry ShafTer Was Regularly Presented to the Court. Nathan H. Suittcr. the policeman who is held for second degree murder be cause of having exceeded his authority in killing Henry Shaffer, a longshoreman, who was resisting arrest : on a. minor charge, lost the first brush in his fight for liberation from the county jail yes terday forenoon. Through his attorneys, John F. Logan and Dan J. Malarkey, Suitter filed a motion to cjuash the in formation against him. The motion was presented before Judge , Cleland and promptly overruled. Failure of the District Attorney to give the accused man a preliminary ex amination or to submit the charges to investigation by a grand jury was made the basis of the motion. It was urged that the constitution of the state and of the United States had been viojated in presenting an information or indictment direct to the trial court. In passing un favorably on the motion, Judge Cleland called attention to the fact that a similar question was raised in the trial of Guglielmo, an Italian murderer who was lately executed. The question was passed on by the Supreme Court at the time and defined as not constituting any breach of law. The document as presented yesterday was regarded as a play for time, as it is known that Suitter is averse to trial before the June election, contending that political questions would have a bearing in the trial of the case. Shaffer, the victim of Suitter's revolver, was a mem ber of the Longshoreman's Union, which is interested in seeing a vigorous prose cution of the case, as are many influ ential Germans. Suitter's fellow officers of the police department are standing by him in his trouble in a substantial way. They were instrumental in securing : the legal services of Messrs. Logan and Malarkey, possibly the most formidable available counsel for defense In a murder trial. The police department raised a fund of Jo) to apply on the amount required to defray the expenses of the trial. Suitter added 1500 to this amount out of his own pocket. In case of a conviction In the trial court, another S500 will be required to pay for appeal to the Supreme Court and this amount will doubtless have to be provided by the police force. Judge Cleland set Monday at 2 P. M. as the time for Suitter's appearance to plead to the charge against him. Mineworkers in Brief Session. INDIANAPOLIS. March 14.
