AND DOES IT DESTROY IT.
EY HEPPNER BRANCH NO. 1.
There has never been a great re
form advocated but that its enemies
charged it was opposed to religion.
They said it when it was proposed to
socialize or make public the schools.
They said it when it was proposed to
destroy the institution of chatle slav
ery. They said it of Paul when he
preached Christianity. They said it
of Jesus as recorded in Mark xiv,
63-4: "Then said the high priest,
Ye have heard his blasphemy;
what think ye? And they all all con
demned him to be guilty of death."
Exercise a little reason and common
sense. Socialism is industrial demo
cracy, a rule of both politics and in
dustry by the people. It matters not
what an individual Socialist might
believe, the question is, what would
the whole people believe? Would let
ting you have fuller freedom and a
say in the management of industry
make an atheist of you? Would let-
tine the whole people have freedom
from the domination of not only the
trust but also of all other exploiters,
make atheists of them ? The charge is
too ansurn, too preposterous, ior sensi
ble men to even consider.

MORE THAN 90 PER CENT was
the money of the chaps up-stream
who were throwing the bodies in,
having first carefully picked their
pockets.
The various churches in America
have been most diligent buying skiffs
and manning rescue crews.

The socialists are going to stop
these good people from throwing the
workers in. Then they won't need
aynone to fish them out down ' the
stream. They will attain this end
by making better conditions to live
in. If these good people would try
as hard to make good conditions in
the next ten years as they have the
past ten to make bad conditions to
live in they will, not have to enact
any prohibitory laws. The incentive
to do what is not right will then have
been removed. '
WHEN WILL THE CHURCH GO
UP STREAM?
By Livy S. Richard in The Portland
News.
Big-hearted John Paul refused to
bother with organized private charity
and in explanation used to tell a pithy
parable.
Some good folks lived on the bank
a river. Daily, hourly, they were dis
tressed by the sight of human bodies
floating by.
They got into a skiff, they and their
hired men, rowed to mid-stream and
rescued an occasional perishing broth
er. But though they worked all day and
far into the night, the best they could
do was to pull out about one drown
ing body in 10.
One day a radical came along and
said:
"Why spend all your time picking
a few bodies out of the river? Why
. not go up stream and nab the fellows
who are throwing these brethren in?"
Some of the rescuers had never
thought of that.
But, alas, most of 'em couldn't act
on the hint, for their living depended
on the throwers-in.
I had a curious reminder of this
parable the other day, when I saw in
a paper how a group of bully fine fel
lows in a city I know had banded to
gether to raise a fund for a federa
tion of charities.
In the paper was a list of big con
tributors the chaps who furnish
the skiff and the boat hooks. Since
such lists are pretty much alike every
where, maybe you d be interested in
A brief analysis.
The largest giver was a patent
monopolist, himself so rich his money
bothers him but in his great plant
are hundreds of women and girls puid
hardly enough to keep them alive.
