PorUaad, Oct. 6. To the Editor of
The Journal Candidates, officeholders
and others of the Republican party or
any other party -may meet in conven
tion and formulate a platform spark
ling with fine sentiment and beautiful
phrases and bristling- with boasts of
accomplishment and promises. Will
this be- satisfying at this time to the
voters r Oregon? ' Today the farmer,

dened with, taxation. They are com
pelled to pay all that Is charged up
to them on the tax rolls and all that is
charged up j to them by everyone from
Whom they1 buy or with whom they
'trade. They are not in position to
charge to those with whom they deal,
taxes or any other items of expense.
These burdens must be lessened and
spread out so that everybody actually
bears his share of taxes, or disaster to
ail business Interests of the state will
surely follow. Everybody knows what
a platform la for that it is the vehicle
upon which a politician proposes to
Vide into' office. In this campaign a
party platform, no manner what it
ays, is an absurdity. Most of the
men who are running for office are
known. . A - great many of them have
records, - What are the records of
these men? What are their qualifica
tions to accomplish the things the
people want '.done? There is a large
element in this state that- must have
something done within the immediate
future. Who are the men most likely
to do the things the people want done?
The people must look to these men.
land not . to platforms, for relief. The
two men running for the office of gov
ernor have records. On wiych one do
you think you can rely in this emer
gency? Based on his record, which
offer the best chance of relief? How
many of the candidates have been in
the legislature before? What are their
records? Are the voters going to elect,
this 'year, men who are' likely to serve
special interests and not the Interests
of the taxpayers? They will, unless
they investigate. There are candidates
everywhere for the legislature who
have axes to grind for a special Inter
eat. Everybody knows there Is no
party politics in this campaign.

European capitals tell us of a confer

purpose of settling the question of the
Near East. The Christian world looks

called civilised and Christian, powers of
Europe are prepared to condemn to the
merciless sword of :the Turk the peace

Single Tax Would Break Them XXwn

of The Journal Writing In The Jour
nal. Mr. jOenllnger says: "Whatever
the land tax might be under single
tax. It would build up the state by
encouraging Industry to come in."
I fear Mr. Denlinger jumps to con
clusions. He should , know that agri
cultural prosperity la the basis of all
commercial and Industrial, prosperity,
everywhere. When farmers make
money and are contented, then, and
then only, does the state advance in
dustrially; because no manufactured
article can be made without first hav
ing raw material from our agricul
tural communities to manufacture
from and with. When you load down
the farmer with tax and whers else
will all the tax money necessary to
keep up our state come from under
the single tax system except by rais
ing it from the land and thus raising
tne tarmer s tax he will be ' unable
to make ends meet, and. so will de
crease production and merely raise
enough to eat. over expenses, or quit
altogether and go to the city for work.
A , poor farming population- means an
impoverished industrial condition, for
without raw material no industries
can te carried on, and without money
to spend, in , the farmer's hands, the
retail trade will go partially under.
Mr. Denlinger says it's "clear She
track for the dirt farmer by taxing
the iand so high that land speculators
can't hold their land." Does he know
that most land speculators are pos
sessed of large means, and that few
farmers are even well off financially?
Now, whom will this high tax hit most?
The dirt farmer, who earns his bread
in the sweat of his brow to pay his
already high taxes and. keep body and
soul together. He would clear, the
track, all right yes, of every poor
"dirt farmer'' in the whole state of

SCHOOL, BILL AND BRIDGE
A Plea for the Denial of the One and
for the Authorizing of the Other.
Portland, Oct. 4.-To the Editor of
The Journal There are a number of
reasons why Southeast Portland ought
to have a bridge. The proposed Rosa
Island, bridge will prove the solution
of the over-congested traffic of Haw
thorne and Morrison streets. South
Portland and Southeast Portland will
be brought closer together. The dan
gerous crossings of East Clay and
Hawthorne streets ,will be avoided.
South Portland will receive a 'lease to
a new life of development by the artery
that runs through the vast territory of
Southeast Portland and drains the en
tire Willamette valley and all the dis
tricts toward, Estacada. The residents
who would be benefited by this new
bridge voted for the Broadway bridge
and were willing to assume their share
of its cost, to show a neighborly spirit
and a broadmindedttess so necessary for
the, prosperity of a whole city. What
ever is for the ibenefliu of one section
of a city ought to be considered as
beneficial for the entire community. No
draw is required at this location, and
this Is a most desirable feature. Less
than half the money required for the
compulsory school bill would build this
bridge. The former serves no other
purpose than prejudice and would work
general harm, while the bridge to be
erected would bring the people closer
together and benefit the entire city.

THE BIBLE IN THE SCHOOLS
Advocate of Its Non-Sectarian Use Ad
vises Restoration of That Use
as in Former Days.
Portland. Oct. 6. To the Editor of
The Journal Allow me to thank you
for your editorial entitled "The Busi
ness of Crime." If it were read and
acted upon by all public officials here
would soon be a great reduction in
lawlessness.
I should like to say a few words
about the bill which-so many look upon
as an infringement upon religious lib
erty. There was a time when every
school In our country opened its dally
work with reading from the Bible, ind
prayer, or the Lord's Prayer spoken,
by teacher and pupils in concert. As
the foreign element Increased In num
ber there began to be objection to this
simple observance of faith in God and
respect to His precepts, and -gradually.
In first one state and then another, the
Objections of a very small minority
were taken seriously, and the shallow
thinking majority gave way. voting to
cease recognizing God's existence and
the authority of His word In the moral
life of our schools.
This naturally worked, as It was in
tended to do, to the establishment of
many more private religious schools, on
the grounds of unfitness of the public
schools to maintain religious and moral
training. Moral training Is, we know,
of vast Importance. The moral life is
upheld by religious knowledge, and of
that knowledge the Bible Is the text
book to all Christendom. Failure in
the moral life is always due either to
Ignorance of, or refusal to obey,' the
teachings of that book. The bill which
Insists .that all children shall attend
the public schools through the grammar
grades Is the reaction against the state
of affairs, which segregates thousands
o our future citizens in private Insti
tutions, where "private interpretations' j
Of Scripture are taught and where. :
often, the democratic principles of our
nation are disregarded or discredited.
It this bill fails to pass, it Is to be
hoped that another will follow which
refuses to hire privately taught teach
ers in the nubile schools, and restores
the non-sectarian Bible a part t
Oregon's ' school program.

among- which they omit the compulsion
of democracy and Americanism.-. After
saying the bin denies rights to the
