' "" I EDITORIALS 0F4 THE PEOPLE - Editor Oregon Statesman; What a "foolish man William Jennings Bryan is to think that he can conTince the world, the flesh. and the deril, that the bible is the word of God, Mr. Bryan had bet ter spend bte last days in trying to convince the universe that ap ples do act grow on apple tree, nortnat pears do not grow on Piear trees, as to try and convince a xnan that he Is not a monkey! when he thinks he is, for Cod's word says cs a man thlnketh so is he. .Then the adumbrate man, no matter how, well known or great, that he should feel himself called upon to act as an attorney for Ct?d Almighty in court, to prove that the sun and the - moon and the stars shine from heaven, or that light and darkness alternate ly cover the earth.' or that our breath keep the people of all na tions of the world of one accord ! a to Its necessity. Mr. Bryan .is not doing the gospel any good. neither is he , representing the rank and file of good christian leop!e who believe that man's first duty is, "seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his right- ousness, and all these things shall be added unto you. As no man knows where he is at until he knows God, so 4ts best -for those I who know God to convince those "who do not, that the monkey and its ancestors can ! never relocate the members of a human body like unto us, out of ! the material as vsed to manufacture monkeys, for "God created man in his own1 image in the image of God creat ed he him male and female creat ed he them." Genesis 1-27. Our 1 ancortora were devine. away back at the foundation of the world. and for tbe sixty odd years I have lived hear on earth man normon- key have not changed one bit in chape, I wonder If anybody has any . good reason to believe that J a monkey ever looked like a man before evolation took,, such a hold on their ancestors, 'i -I i WILL.
