An Answer.
Kiutoi Democrat:
Plense allow me a little space to rply
to what 1 consider a contemptibie f ffer
of Rev. Mr, Holmes of the arrgsr t'y
so called Christian church. If A!r
Holmes baa com her to pick aqasnel
he can get It if he persUtf, Dce he think
it is smart to offer 60, tor a paswge of
scripture teaching sptlnkllng s. Christ
ian baptism? I will lve him $100 for a
king e passsge t(scling immersion as
Cbtistisn baptism. Ol course he will be
the judge of the pssrsge brought to him
and I will be the Judieol the passsge
he would bring to me, and this shows
thecootemptihility ci such an offer. Tbe
Mormonn could in tha aama a Afr..

poligamy, or
aama fnr a
psseage teaching the falibity of tbe rope.
And every man could defend his own
narrow creed with tbe same liberal tffer,
and be as ssfo in It a. Mr. iinl mAsa la
The fact 1 the offer of Mr. Holme is
nothing else then an offer to bet, and an
offer to bet is always tbe argument of a
bluffer and no attention is to be pair to
it until It becomes an inrult
The question of baptism is one over
which great and good men have disagreed
and it is ssie to predict that they will
continue to do so. But no man who has
he leset regard for the opinion and sin
cerity of another will ever fauntingly as
tall him as willfully Ignorant,
It would be a pity indeed if Mr.
Holmes wss the only minister in town
win could read hi bibls or if his people
were the only ones who lead chrUtisn
lives, and tj live a christian is the one
thing neediul.
Mr. Holmus need not think that he is
the whole ocean because hie hair Is wavy
or that because he wears spectacles tbst

Tbe man who believes all be heers
needs at least two stories to Ins head to
hold it.
Some one wants the office of city at
torney cut off. Well it hss been cut off
several years. The attorney gets paid
fr.r what he does.
Some one has been reporting that Ed
Davidson snd Comrade John Catlin wili
be run against each other on independ
ent tickets for chief of Police of Albany.
This item belongs to the misSt
column.
Ayers new style of almunac just out
ha forecast of nearly everything under
tbe sun but the coming city election. It
would take a real live prophet to hit half
of the winning tickets at the present
time,
Recently at a theatrical performance
in San Francisco tbe atage manager by
request went to the foot light, and stat
ed that Dr. Brown wa wanted at the
box office. Forty or fifty men arose and
swrtea lor tne oiuce.
I. J. Mums', manager of the TJ. C.
team said : "The U. of 0. team is cer
tainly a credit to it state. They would
be able to beat Stanford easily and Ne
vada would lie a "snap." I regret that
games cannot be arranged with these
teams."
A twelve-year Sedalla (Mo.) boy has
suffered nineteen fracture of tbe bone
of hi legs, arms and fingers since be was
old enougn to walk, lie bag a diseate
which renders his bones as brittle as
glass and liable to break on tbe sMgbteet
provocation.
ihinne, tbe weather prophet, of Mont
g ornery, Ala., predict, upon meteorlogi
cal observation, for the entire 20th cen
tury, and that 1900 will be a cold
year. He include 1900 in the twentieth
century a very proper thing to do. Mr.
Uunne baa done a big thing, and it is
fortunate for him tLat be will not live
to see how many mistake be ha made.
The following from the Baker City
Democrat indicate that that city ha
also bad some small-pox experience :
The Baker City school will continue
n session despite the small-pox scare,
r what some well informed persons pro
ounce to be a chlckenpox scare. It is
ot nnadvisable to have all pupil vac
nated , thus insuring protection from
e "re al thing" for at least 6 or 7 years.
i
Even Admiral George Dewey I being
talked about, and tbe papers re coming
pretty close to working np a scandal.
Give them a little time and they wil
hatch something. It is started on ac
count of the admiral transferring the
fine residence presented bim in Wash
ington to ba wife. - The papers jumped
upon him red hot., Now they have
transferred tbe property to hi eon
George and declare that it shall remain
in the family. One version u that a
widow somewhere wa about to proceed
against him for breacn ot promise. ruD
lie men could be more independent and
happy if they would buy their own prop
erty.
The Roeeburg Plaindealer has the fol
lowing enconrsging word for the gout
business :
"Goat are bofn metiers, are never
sick, live on tin cans, oak grubs and most
any old thing; are eaeily fattened,
weigh more than sheep, and their wool
is worth twice aa much. Tbe people
wbo are going into tbe goat business in
Western Oregon will all be plutocrat in
a few years."
It is an interesting fact that with all
