Auto-Da-Fe
On the same 'day that the Episcopal church convention
condemned Bishop Brown as a heretic and deposed him from
the ministry because he refused to believe ancient supersti
tions and regarded the bible symbolically rather than
literally, the dispatches also carried the news of the finding
of the charred remains of a young woman in Louisiana
swamps, who was, it was asserted, evidently the victim of
the "auto-da-fe."
The auto-da-fe is the time honored punishment for
heretics, imposed by the inquisition, and hence the funda
mentalists of the church overlooked a fine chance to give the
heretic bishop his dues, in the almost forgotten orthodox
manner the Ku Kluxers have revived in Louisianu. Webster
thus defines the ceremony:
AUTO-DA-I-'l' The coromotiy accoitumiiyliiy the pronouncement
of judgment by the Inquisition, which wns followed by execution by
the secular authorities ot those sentenced us guilty; hence the
execution nlone, esnechilly t lie burning of a herotic. Tlic auto-da-fe
was usually held on a Sunday between WhiltMiionday and Advent,
nnd often formed .a groat public solemnity attended by all classes.
The noniicuiH and condemned (clad in the sanbenito) wore con
ducted In u procession of ecclesiastics led by Dominicans to church,
where after a sermon on the true faith, they wore formally absolved
or wero sentenced ns guilty and delivered to the civil authorities.
Autoa-dn-fo wore held ns early as Hie 13th century ond ub kilo as
182(1, but were most frequent in the lalter part of the lGlli century,
i Heretic bishops have been burned at the stake oeiore,
five at one time a3 late as 1555 in London, together with
21 clergymen and 251 laymen. It was a favorite and effec
tive way of proclaiming the true faith with both Catholics
nnd Protestants, who lit fires all over Europe to purge
Christendom of heretics.
The revival of heresy trials
the auto-da-fe as proper punishment. It is direct action in
sending people to hell, who do not believe in your way, and
hence should greatly delight Billy Sunday nnd other funda
mentalists. Why not take a lesson from history, make a
beginning with Bishop Brown and destroy modern heresy
abornin in the method so effective in medieval times?
A Salesman Needed
There is sad news for the boys. Bill Thompson and his
barrel have pulled out of the senatorial race, taking what
Jilllo prospects there were for pickings for politicians. The
primary system and the corrupt practices net are given us
the cause all of which proves that as Mr. Stanficld says of
the Baker episode, there is good in evil.
It is a doleful tale that Big Bill tells. The primary system
requires the expenditure of money and the purity of elections
law limits this expenditure. Says Mr. Thompson:

had beauty, real beauty.

Four thousand dollars' worth of

flax for the manufacture of oil
from the seed was grown extensive

until Mrs. Lord nobody had serious

western Oregon Industry.
She was the pioneer In the plan.

In tills day of specialization many

condition exists not because of any
lack of properly qualified general

spread of superficial medical know

This attitude of criticism pre
