Lebanon - Express.
H. Y. KIRKPATRICK.
Editor - and - Proprietor
The present indication isthatths
long expected war is not for dill-
ayt. Russia and Japan are on the
verge of hostilities over the division
of the spoils' in the latten war with
China. Japan wai strong enough
to gain all her victories, but. sh
unjt not be stronj enough to bold
her .legiimate fruit. - Americana
who love psaoe should be thankful
that our country M not mixed up
in the Eastern quarrels. A general
war is to he deplored, but America
would reap men financial bless
ings.;
Tbs supreme court has rendered
a decision covering in part the
question of taxing church property,
As the .Express predicted, tn
court holds that the law does nut
. exempt that class of church prop-
erty which produces a revenue.
- In other words, when a church or
other JHke society owns and de
rives real from any property, that
. property must, bear its .proportion
of taxes, just as property owned by
. individuals. That property actually
Used for church purposes only,
must not pay taxes under the
present law. The justice of this
': decision, as far as it goes, will be
patent to every one, when it is re
membered, that, In Portland alone,
. millions of dollars worth of such
property has heretofore escaped tax
ation, and the burden of Uxee thos
' -shifted has been borne by the poblio
at large, who have received little
or no compensation. The spirit of
our constitution and laws demands
the complete divorcement of church
and state. Anything thst savors
of a connection between the two
should at once cease. Experience
of all ages and all nations demands
that we should guard this point
above all others, and put a quietus
' upon all attempts to ally the gov
.eminent with aqy one or all of the
many religious institutions of the
land.1 - There is -but little choice
between them." The opportunity
is all tnat is wanting. If given
the power.any denomination would
soon smother all Apposition. The
goverment, ' yielding once, could
'never shake off the tightening coils
of this dominating influence, but
would weaken and decay, unable
to stem the tide ol prosecution and
'murder Wat lias always followed
in the wake of such mUallianot,
