BIBLE THOUGHT FOR TODAY
And ye skull serve the Lord your God, mid he shall Wes,
thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from
the midst of thee. 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? Well, very likely he Is; but nevertheless and just the same
1 10 Spectator suggests him tor the position ot United Slates Senator.'
The statement that Mr. Chapman would be the joke of the campaign
,f.iSw . Kn,",uliH,ua """'"Union, with no better basis ot fact than
might 1)0 found In the nurns News' prediction of the sort ot weather
wo may have for the primaries. 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.

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. ,
