Heretic
An ecclesiastical heresy trial in the 20th century is an
mazing thing particularly in the Protestant Episcopal
church with its constitutional vagueness of doctrine anil
tolerant tendencies. It indicates the survival of medieval
dogma despite the progress of science in an age of reason and
proves that the Episcopalians are as great fundamentalists in
their way as the Evangelical Beets.
Bishop Brown has been adjudged a heretic because
he does not take a literal construction of the scriptures but
a symbolical. To him God is "not a being with masculinity"
created in human image, but "a precious symbol of the
infinite reality which has brought us all things into being as
parts of itself maker of heaven and earth."
The Bishop declares that modern biology has made the
literal acceptance of the virgin birth, the physical resurrec
tion, hell and the bibical creation impossible but "in stripping
us of this literal interpretation, it has released the symbol
for greater usefulness." He declares:
''I see In Jcsm III nnly son, oi:r Lord, not literally but as the
symbol of the son uf (Sod Hie hitman manifestation of all that is
true and beautilul and good. Ihe eternal servant. I ee In Him every
tolling, eweatinif, blecillDR son of man. 1 ace Him In the uncounted,
unnamed and unknown workers of the world, despised and disin
herited and crucified my God made manifest In suffering flesh.
Thanks to human progress, they cannot burn the Bishop
at the stake for having opinions contrary to ecclesiastical law
that day has gone by, yet he is none the less a martyr to his
beliefs, which arc honest and sincere and not at all irreverent,
despite their clash with dogma. Bishop Brown is a believer
in the leveling socialism preached by Jesus and is therefore
as obnoxious lo the established order as the Nazarcne was
2,000 years ago. He is sacrificed to the intolerance of
the times.
"Raiding the State"
A strong lobby is present at the legislature working in
behalf of bills designed to protect holders of irrigation bonds
at the expense of settlers and the stale. Governor Pierce
brands the program as "an attempt to raid the state" and in
this surmise he is probably correct.
The lobby represents the Fluishakcr interests, the Anglo-Paris-London
bank of San Francisco, the concern that
financed these districts by purchasing their bonds through
Ihoir own brokers at a heavy discount, let cost plus contracts
at 15 percent or more profit to subsidiary concerns, and
peddled the bonds at or near par to the public, because of
state guaranty of interest, with the result that some of the
irrigation districts got only 56 cents on the dollar to show for
their expenditures, and the state is out the interest paid, due
to the protracted era of agricultural depression.
Spoliation and looting of irrigation districts of Oregon
constitute one of the biggest scandals in the history of the
state. The reaction has been to discredit irrigation and halt
the slate's development. The only ones profiting have been
those who manipulated the bond sales and contracts, and now
seek state assistance.
It is now proposed that the state refund principal and
interest on long term basis, payable pro rata, acre for acre:
that the sale of surplus water be permitted; and that man
agers be npixiinled by the courts as receivers to take charge
of the properties, whereby the state would get nothing for
its expenditures for interest.
The 'obbv for the bank is headed by Fred I.. Gifford, grand
dragon of the Ku Klux Klan,

While Rodney Evans and Rich
ard Startnount waited In the re-
cepticn room of the hospital the
voice that Dick had heard in the
crowd about the ambulance haunt
ed him. Two or three times he al
most had it and then it vanished.
It had made an impression upon
him. for. while he felt that It real
ly had no bearing on the case. It
waa a good clue to send the re
porters and detectives off on and a
t;ood snag to introduce to contro
vert the circumstantial evidence
that Itodney was taking on his
shoulders from Kathlyn.
The two men found Kathlyn In
almost the eame condition. Rod
ney arranged for the greatest spec
ialist in town to consult with the
young doctor who had been called
by Handy. Young Doctor Johnson
seemed very earnest and efficient,
lie mentioned in the course of con
versjtion with Diek that he lived
very near to Kathlyn and knew
most of the village celebrities by
sight.
"I have known Mr. Kvans and
MUs Leonard by sight for months,"
he Slid. "I keep my car where
Mr. Kvans leave bis when he goes
to call on Miss Leonard. I have
met him very often at the garage
when I was coming In or going out
on a call.'
Dick haitlly explained. "I may
as well tell you. doctor, that Mr.
Kvans and Mi.ss Leanard have been
secretly married for more than a
year. Mias Leonard has lived in
the village long enough to object
to bearing any man's name."
"I'm glad you told me that. It
explains many things. I had al
ways regarded her with great res
pect. 8 mo things that were not
very plain to me needed the ex
planation you have Just given me.
I had ahvavs hated to think of her
as throwing her life away."

Yes. I saw him an-jut twelve

"Did you see anyone else on the

The doctor hesiiatej a moment
and then aald: "Ics, 1 renumber

It seemed odd to rru that, although

was turned up, he was without an
umbrella. 1 remember thinking.
Why doesn't that man take a
taxi.' H')l need someone from my
profession tomorrow morning." '
"Culd you idviitlfy the man if
you saw him ac.tin?"
T am not sure.''
"Have you told the police?"
Doctor JolniAon looked btui'tled
"Why, no! It never struck me as a
clue. The pollfc have as yet made
no Inquiries of me."
"Who was at the garage at the
time you wcro there, doctor?"
"No one. Very often about
twelve o'clock at nl;;ht the man
who Is on watch got across the
road for his lunch. The regular
customers usually drive in and
leave their cara and when the man
returns he takes care of them."
"Doctor, you may be called upon
to give this testimony. As Mr. Ev
ans attorney I ask you to keep it
to yourself until I call upon you."
"Why. you dun't think that any
one would accuse either Mr. Evans
or Mas Leonard?"
