should go toj the world and then He

was the declaration of Evaneelist t.
K. Dickson in his lecture at Chris
tlanson's hill. Eleventh street be
tween .Morrison and Yamhill last
Sunday' night on "God's Last Appeal
td the Nations." He told of the mar
velous manner In which tbie gospeJ
Is being heralded to practically every
nation, kindred, tongue and people
in f ulftllment of the prophecy "writ
ten by Johti in the Revelation, and
bowed that! not only are many thou
sands of missionaries devoting their
lives to this work but many more
thousands of heathen have-been rais
ed np'to help accomplish this work.
Evangelist Dickson showed that
the Seventh Day Adventistj denomi
nation is taking a most active part
In the proclamation of the gospel,
making plain the fact that even
hough this church did not send out
Its first missionary until 1874 yet
today it has more than 5000; mission
aries on me ironuer, anq more tnan
6000 native evangelists assisting
them. .' He, showed that the Adven
tlsts are now proclaiming the near
ness of the coming of the (Lord In
12 different countries, and are-using
. 123 .languages. He also spoke of the
fast amount of literature that is be
ing circulated in many parts of the
world to help In consummating this
work. He showed that God is clear
ly guiding in the destinies of this
church, making prominent i its very
remarkable growth along all lints of
missionary endeavor In the compara
tively 'few years of Its existence.
In his discourse. Evangelist Dick
son said in part:
um i ue nation or rvi

are prepared for the ludement? h.
are ready to meet their Lord. No
ansuan ever did. more than to
keep the commandments of God
and the faith of Jesus." , This meets
every requirement, of the gospel.
This three-fold message iihs in
the second coming of Christ, for John
next sees .the Son of Man coming in
wc uvuu9 vi neaven, ana gives a
description of His return to His peo
ple, w nen He left His disciples on
me mount or unves. "a cloud receiv
er Him out or their sight." Angels
who stood by the disciples said to
xnem, ""inis same sesus which Is
taken up from you into heaven, shall
so come In like manner, as ye have
seen Him go into heaven."Acts 1:19
11. His departure was Dersonal and
visible; His return will be personal
ana visible. A cloud received Him
out of their sight; a cloud will bring
Him in signt again, and all "shall
see the Son of Man coming in the
clouas or Heaven with cower and
great glory." Matt. ' 24:30V Christ
returns a king,', for He has "on His
head a golden crown." Rev. 14:14,
signifying that He is no longer
priest. He has received a. kingdom
and now comes to begin His reign.
He has In "Hlshand a sharp sickle."
He Is ready to reap the harvest of
the earth. - In Hi parable of the
sower. Jesus long ftefore declared
that "the harvest is the end of the
world." Matt. 13:39.
Thus It Is clear that the return o
Christ will be heralded to all the
world by a cos Del message shaned

little over half an acre of unenltl

Is the price paid by Sam Jackson.
editor of the Portland Journal last
week for oo of an acre known
as the old hatchery site.
The wealthy editor of the Tfjrt-
iana journal needed tne urns tract
as an addition to his beantifnl inm
uirr home at Clear Creek, whre he
and his coterie of wealthy Portland
from the busy whirl of city life.
The purchase was nobody' busi
ness except Mr. Jackson's, of conrse,
and yet the transaction raits foT
some casual observations which may
or may not be pertinent. '
Mr. Jackson Is the self -proclaimed
guardian of the Interests of the
struggling farmer, and the down
trodden laboring man. If his editor
ial page In the Journal Is to be seri
ously considered. He la the arch en
emy of the land grabber, the rest
estate speculator, and the owner of
Idle lands. It's a fight to a fin!h.
with tho Portland Journal sounding
the bugle, and carrying the banner
at the head of the parade. 6o reads
the Journal editorial pare.
Now for the moment Editor Jrk
son steps down and out of h's edi
torial page and takes part la a little
real estate deal which has proven
to be a rather astounding transaction
when land values. In the Cleir Creek
country are considered. Editor
Jackson's magnificent country villa
Is located about six miles east of
Oregon City In what U known as the
Baker's Bridge country. There ara
some good farms In the" eomminlty.
thete are tome good lands, and some
mighty good people, but the com
bination does not warrant the estab
lishment of a precedent of fixing
land values at fSHOO an acre.
No one but M Jackson would
have paid the price, tt is true, and It
is also true that had anv one but
Mr. Jackson gone Into s'lrh a specu
lation nothing would have been
thought about the matter. Real
homeseekers men of the tc.11 who
want to purchase farms, for AGItl-
CULTURAL purposes who have
been finding solace In the Journal's
ranipalrn against the land speenlat
ora. in the vain hope that farm land
prices would b brought within reach
nf the man of limited capital, are
now watching the effect of Mr. Jai-k
lion's action. A deal of this" k:nd
does not bring- new opportunities to
the man of limited mean. The ef
feet la Indirect, but nevertheless far-
reaching.
Clackamas lands are rich, they are
worth money and the man who sells
is entitled to, and should receive.
good price- fair price But SS&OQ
for 66-100 of an acre of uncultivated
farm land Is too much money alto
gether. In Clackamas or any other
county.
