Exodus 33:25. For Governor The Portland Spectator ' recently suggested Captain C. Chapman, editor of the Oregon Voter, for United States senator, presenting in the Spectator's inimitable way, his claims for the office in a most convincing manner. This led the Burns News to remark : Tlio Spectator, cither through sarcasm or In a spirit of cusseclm-s.H, lias siiKKuslfil llic name ot C. C. Chapman for Unllt-d States Senator. As u propaganda iiroinnlRator and as a compiler of CiKUl'cs to fool the public on lax matters, Chapman is a decided success, hut as a candi date, for senator lie would he the joke of the camalan, and no one knows tills any better than Die editor of The Spectator. All of which provokes The Spectator to reply as follows: Tliat Is rather unkind to Mr. Chapman, and Is hardly fair to The Spectator. This paper did not suKt'est the "'name' ot C. C. Chap-I jnau tor united states senator;'' It aiiBueatotl Mr. Chapman himself for that liiRh honor. Why should the usually nstule edilor of the Hums News think the suctrestlon Is made either through sarcasm or In a spirit ot cussedness. What has lie over rend In The Spectator that would cnuso him to believe that anything is set down here In a spirit of cussednoss or sarcasm? The Burns News savs Mr. Chapman lnI,rIV;Kianla promulgator and a compiler of figures to fool the public?

Hut even it he should prove the joke hn'"!'.! Kn,.T,l!P,ST''ti,l'r "K,"n BBela '"l"-'l C. Chapman for the position of I'nltod Stales senator. While Captain Chapman, having helped kill the state income tax in Oregon, would be of immeasurable assistance to President Coolidge and Secretary Mellon at Washington in their efforts to repeal (he federal income tax, his record here makes him too valuable to be sent away. We need him in Oregon and suggest him as our next governor instead of senator. Promulgation of propaganda is now the chief work of an Oregon governor, and in this capacity Captain Chapman is but little less skillful than Governor Pierce, but his ability as a compiler of figures is infinately greater. While under Chapman the propaganda for white-faced calves of the range would give way to that for the bulls of Wall Street, his familiarity with the adding machine would preclude million dollar mistakes in tax levies. Contesting for the nomination with Captain Chapman will probably be the hero of Hicktown, Brigadier General White, lone survivor of the battle of the windshield, who has just returned from a victorious campaign in Southern Oregon, where, as his press agent asserts, he "merited the praise of the nation." He is likely, as soon as an angel can be located, to again become "the man of the hour," and lead the embattled hosts of Kluxers, vets and guardsmen under his command to indiscriminate slaughter at the polls. So we are apt to face a choice of military men for governor, for the war heroes are coming into their own, and we can choose between the calculating captain and the bold brigadier. The brigadier having conclusively proven the truth of the old adage that the pen is mightier than the sword, is armed with a fountain pen, unsheathed and ready for instant action, while the captain carries both a cash register and a cane. It will be an interesting struggle and already the strategy in unfolding. The brilliant brigadier invaded the Tierce preserves and bid for the vote of the long-haired men and short-haired women by denouncing the accursed cigarette and forever abjuring its use. The courageous captain countered by publicly signing the pledge to abjure the boot legger and swear-off on the moonshine. The brigadier's next move is anxiously awaited. It will probably be a manifesto against the monkey. thia wearing u cliurming little uur pi rubber apron with flaunting yellow flower on - the pockets, while Clraham had one one of cook's serviceable gingham ones. He wa stirring the delicious smell log contents of a doep saucepan on the electric stove, and Cynthia was spreading a red and white check od tablecloth on the kitchen table, and singing gaily. . , . Oh, Jim you re just in timo to slice the cheese very thin for the toaat," she told him. "Sorry, but I can't," he answer ed almost curtly, "Mother wants to see me at once, so I'll have to go over there. Don't know what llnic I'll be back." th, Jlmbo! What a Ahame that you'll nilfw the party!" Then, mil- lenly remembering that that wasn't unite the thin? to say first. she added. "X hope there's nothing serious the matter."

Evolution Conflict Declared No Menace To Christian Faith Clu-iMt la his heart. .Any mlBireiit- ton and her three children, Mr. The present much discussed conflict between Modernism hud Fundamentalism Is not "weighted with destruction to Christianity II. D. Ciianibera of St. Paul's Kpfs copal church told his Sunday morn liitf congregation. Science so long us It is true, he declared, will not destroy, "The fear Is," he said, that some will jump to conclu sions that do not exist. A little knowledge fs sometimes dangerous. A man can believe in evolution and he a good Christian. "We must re- 1st wilh knowledge. Man is Im noi'tal, and that Is enough until II things are proven." . Rev. Chambers spoke ' on the subject, "The Power of Courage," ising for his text the passage, 'J-'car not, but let your bands be trong." The church and Christ hi il ly have little to fear from attacks rom without, according to tho peaker, what It has to fear is that spirit which arrays class against class In serving God, The reason for the divisions of Christ ians is fur from good Christianity and will result in disaster if con tinued In. Je.sus prayed that all might be one. " 'Fear not,' do not let the mind dwell on the difficulties. Go labor on, 'spend and be spent. Labor Is not bounded by today; it is eter nal." Duty as an nntldote for fear was cited by Rev. Chambers. "It is a fine thing to be watchful," he en id "to wait, to hope and to pray, but a greater thing to work. Work drowns out many anticipated dif ficulties, averts many instances of slaying lions that do not exist." i "The thing that unites Christ ians and makes them strong Is not fear, but love und faith, he said, There is no fear in tho words of Jesus, "I am with you always," in the 'words, "Let your hands be strong." "The !ow Commandment, was the subject of the sermon given yesterday morning by Uev, Charles Ward, pastor of the First Congre gational church of Sal em. Rev. Mr. Ward took his text from John 13:3 "A new commandment I give unto you, that ye love one another even as 1 have loved you." "In all thia disgusting squabble over fundamentals," lie said, "practically no mention is made of the new' commandment of Christ. Yet Jesus said thatv this should be the distinguishing mark of his fol lowers: 'J;y tills shall all men know that ye are my desciplos, that ye love one another "It concerns me not," ho declar ed, "whether you are good debat ers of church doctrines, but I wish that you might all take as your creed, 'I believe in tho new com mandment of Christ; I believe in loving my fellow men even as Jesus has loved us. Such love will eliminate humar slavery from the earth; It will ban ish race hatred and industrial con flicts; it will free humanity of the greatest curse, war. No man, no group, no nation will go out to slay those whom they love with Christ like devotion. "The dreain of human brother hood will never be realized until men keep this new commandment of Christ. The average man is poor in love. lie may have wealth lie may belong to a church, but he ment - of him quickly brings the fiercer passions into action. But our Christian fellowship ought to aid u In acquiring the love -f Hied life." Christians are too often prone to be aggressive In their thinking it was stated by Rev. H. F. Pem- berton, pastor of the Leslie Metho dist church, Sunday morning. "Wo like to think of Paul when he said. 'What then shall I do?' We might better sometimes turn It around and let Jesus ask us what ho can do for us. "What would you ask Him?" ho continued. "We often seek out tho smaller, loss Important things, and let our larger opportunities slip by." Rev. Mr. Pemberton expressed the Christian Ideal as set forth in the words, "Seek ye first the king dom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you." Solomon had the cor rect Idea, he said, when be pray ed, "Give thy servant an under standing heart." "There Is no bar to our asking the same thing." he declared. "We talk about the wisdom of Solomon, but other people have been just as wise as he has. Wo can be as wise as Solomon and pray, 'Give us an understanding heart,' ' Pride, ambition and self esteem are apt to crowd out the finer things of life, he stated, and many persons become Indifferent to the Christian life. , Society (Continued from Page Three.) cousins, Mathilda Ann, Margaret Jane and Joseph Houston.
