M. fllostf-oni, of Hood Kivcr, Olves Views on I.ui-ltanla Affair. HOOD ntVi:il, Or, May 11. fTo the ICditor.) In today's paper I was pleased to note you are supporting our President's policy in the mutter of war rr no war over r Inking of noncombat ant vessels where lives of Americans are aaeririced. especially helples wom en and children. . but when "Kather" somebody fires the words of Christ at you in his support of the idea that one nation has a right to war with other nations under the golden rule of "Do unto others as you would that they should do unto you," I stn staggered St his Ignorance of Christ, who plainly taught non-resistance. Time and time again he reiterated the idea of returning good Tor evil. I am not a professor of Christianity, but I do claim to know that Christ was a lover of mankind at:d not a military despot who believed it was right for tho strong to prey on the weak. Without reference to any particular nation, I will say that the law of "self-defense" is all right. I think, but Christ did not live It or teach It as his message to men, but the law of love to all mankind. J. M. BLOSSOM. three nephews at the fronl. one r,f thern killed.

I notice Father Gregory again comes to the front in defense of Ger many's act in sinking the Lunltanla. and charges Americans with venal and mercenary habits, and says there would ba peace in Kurope now had w put an embargo on munitions. Also, he asserts there will be more occurrences like the t-inklng of the Laisilania. Per haps he knows, but let us hope not. It was this same Father Gregory who :mmediately sfter the invasion of Belgium, snd the sacking of Louvaln, asserted that Germany was the fore most nation in the world the most en lightened, the most peaceful and the most humane; and who denied the atrocities charged to her in Belgium.
