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.

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.

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.

Mr. and Mrs. Hanna left for New York
