WAR AND MAX Y i brave lint tic lias been fought by the best brains of the world over the relation of science ami religion. In the bettinniiiM' of the con f'lii-1 ilio churcliineii attacked scieni-e valiantlv its the worst of all possible threats to every religious creed. Then came an era when science and religion were recon ciled, correlated and looked upon as interdependent. .Man increased the uses of science niarveloiisl v. And in that time beran a noticeable falling off spiritual ami ecclesiastical. The first quarter of the twentieth century marked a .succession of scientific triumphs. And the event is still being celebrated by the great war. ' Science has made possible the most stupendous horrors ever inflicted on man by man. It has prolonged the war, it has intensified the increasing miseries of the war. It hits wearied both belligerents and neutrals with the hopeless, endless intricacies of its progress. And in Hie cast and the west, wise men and foolish are thinking that if war is the best use which man can make of science, then an antidote is needed. And they find it in religion, science's old and original foe. Jt is impossible for a sane man to believe that the supremo end of science is to reduce human beings to can non fodder. Ruskin put it this way, years ago, dwelling upon a cer tain point of view: It mail! all the difference, in asserting any principle of war, whether ono assumed that a discharge of artillery would merely knead down a certain (iiinntity of rod clay into a level line, as In a briclt field; or whether, out of every separately Chri.stian-nuincd portion of the ruinous heap, there went out, Into the smoke and dead-fallen air of battle, some astonishing condition of soul, unwillingly reloaBcd. Science, organized and efficient science, works in this war as if the "red clay" theory of human life were true. And men of various modes of thought, men of books and libraries, psychologists, poets, even political prophets, are saying that science has been much too ambitious and has overreached itself; and that one result of the war, which will catch ii)) neutrals as well as the enemy nations, will be a new respect for and interest in religion. Modern civilization, having sent millions of men and women and little children out of this world unwillingly be fore their time by means of scientific warfare, must soon make an accounting. And somewhere, when the balance is struck, man will rediscover tho FARMERS WK frequently rend of strike rioting by workmen seek ing to better their condition but rioting by fann ers seeking the same end is new. farmers seem to be the slowesj of all industries to recognize the value of unity and yet emit rolling largely the production of the necessities of life, they have in their power the enforcement of just, demands as no o her class. Instead of iiiiiring to further their ends, farmers are usually easy prey for the speculator, middlemen and oth ers who take as toll all the traffic will bear. The speculat ors of the exchanges. Ihe elevators, the commission men and countless parasites live off the farmer. The farmers of North Dakota are in revolt. It is an agricultural state, but .somehow or other the profits of the Dakota farmers have enriched the millers of the twin cit ies and the grain gamblers of Chicago. Declaring that fundamental political reform is necessary to enable the fanner to secure his share of what he produces, the .Dakota farmers' league has gone into politics, nominated candi dates for governor ami state legislature, with excellent prospects of success and securing legislation needed. The fanners of New York have combined to secure higher prices for milk, the profits of which they claim arc monopolized by the distributors. New York City is threat ened with a milk famine. The farmers are holding back their milk and using force to compel ot hoi's to do the same. Crossroads are picketed and milk confiscated. Cheese fac tories are being erected to utilize the withheld milk. Some day. perhaps, the Oregon farmers will see the wisdom of acting in unison. Tin: present leaders of the state grange, however, are not big enough to grasp the problems presented and fritter away their time in reac tionary effort to prevent development. A lobby is main tained at the state capitol. whose main effort is directed towards preventing good roads, while further restrictive legislation in a slatv where progress is already tietl by a mossback const it ut ion, is favored by initial ive while tho real problems of production and marketing are passed up. SIMPLIFYING CAPITAL I's arc as thick as telegraph poles on a mov ing train in Colonel L'ooseveit 's lirjl) battle cry at Datlle Creek. Outside of carping criticism, the speech is mostly about ".Me and My Policies" very little about Hughes and still less about the republican platform. W'c arc told what L'ooseveit and various officials of his administration did, and what L'ooseveit thinks, ami what L'ooseveit would do. but nothing to enlighten us as to what Hughes would do. President Wilson says "that certain prospect of repub lican success in November is that we shall be drawn in one form or another into the embroilments of the European war" and ihat "the force of the 1'iiited States will be used to produce in Mexico the kind of law and order which some investors in Mexico consider most to their advantage." Colonel L'ooseveit 's speech furnishes all the confirma tion necessary-- if the colonel paru. as he evidently docs, lie has evidently boon made receiver for the pally bankrupted by Hughes' ineffective campaign and speaks with the voice of authority. P'Wo or needless war is the Usilc for War is I he onl alleruatiw' In the president's policy, ami it is well that the coioiii I fas simplil ied the issue for the people.
