A debate, "Resolved, Thst ths Bible Is In Harmony with the Theory of Evolu tion." held In the T. M. C. A. auditorium last night, was largely attended and evpkud.an excesslvs amount of Interest aa well as merriment. ' The spesksrs were O. Thompson, a well-known - llberallat, who came bars from San Francisco Immediately after th earthquake, and E. S. J. MoAlllster, a Portland attorney. , Thompson took the affirmative aid qf th question, while McAllister upheld ehe negative. Thompson's argument wss that not only t be. Bible, but everything else Is In harmony, with the. theory or evolu tlon, sine the theory of evolution Is a scientific explanation of an the life and aU ths activity of man. Thompson made no preteps of hsrmonlslng the story of Adam and Eve, of Jonah snd th whale, of Elijah ascending to heaven, of the resurrection, or any other explanation of the early history of the race, with evolution's explanation of thst history. These things, hs said, aa explained by evolution ars simply the result of the groping of undeveloped minds. . "The cow Is In th garden of Eden right now," shouted the liberal 1st "The eow does not lie awake at nlghta wor rying over th sins she hss committed." From his point of view, McAllister at tempted to show that th story of tSS) creation, of Jonah snd th whsle, and the many Biblical myths cannot be liter ally true and the account ef the origin of the earth by evolution be true also, Oreetlngs.
