"The state could care for the un fortunates nt about one-half the cost now being saddled upon the taxpay ers, and at tho same time offer bet ter treatment than is given them by many counties, where little or no pro vision is inude for their comfort," he said. Oregon counties are paying about $:t.) per month for each indigent, Mr. West said, whic the inmates of the Oregon state hospital are enred for at a cost of about $15 per month. "Multnomah county has a well-located and splendidly equipped poor farm," Mr. West said. "If this could " be taken over by the state and addi- tional buildings provided to meet the demands of increased population, the taxpayers would be saved." Juveniles, poor furms, mothers' pensions and the like occupied the session this afternoon. Judge T. J. Cleuton, Portland, who presides over tho juvenile court, was to talk late today on "Widows' Pensions," and was expected to make suggestions for the betterment of the present state widows' pension law. "problems In cident to t are of Children Wards of the Juvenile Courts'' was the subject of a discussion to be had following Mr. West's talk. Kufus C. llohnan, Portland, Multnomah county com missioner, president of the associa tion, delivered the annual "presi dent's message" today, CARRANZA AIDE IS BOMBASTIC IN EDICT EL PASO, Tex., Dec. 12. General Arnulfo Gonzales, provisional gover nor of Chihuahua, declared In his first proclamation of the people, after tho reoccupatlon of the city by Car I ranza troops that he would soon be ready to join the first chiof In forcing the retirement of the American puni tive expedition. . . ..... An original copy, of the printed - manifesto, which hears the date of December 6, was brought hero today from Chihuahua by a refugee. General Gonzales began his procla mation by saying that the people have the right to know the line of action their governors intend to pursuo while In office. He continued: "The state of Chihuahua, In which the spark of revolution found so pro , pituous a field and which has always beon so jealous a defender of the dig nity and cleanness of its institutions, giving a proverbial example as a bel ligerent liberal in sustaining its sov ereignty and integrity and showing so great an energy in repulsing any tres pass on its rights, today must lament tho disgrace of scelug its sacred soil desecrated by the proud Saxon troops, a misfortune that the bandit Villa caused with his deeds at Columbus. As these deeds not only Injure the sovereignty of tho state, but also of the country, it is to the ccntrol gov ernment that belongs the solution of this conflict which treatens ho nation itself and the responsibilities that history exacts before the present and future generations. The rest of the manifesto Governor-General Gonzales devotes to pro mises of educational, financial and international reforms and of cleaning out the rebels "who persist in their errors."

Scantlin So man)- useful gifts can be bought at the Closing Out Sale at a big sav I'lng. Ahrens. , (Conclusion) Theology is defined as the "Science of God," but scholastic theology, orthodoxy and ritualism all ossified thought, tho intellectual stand-patters, have conspired to befuddle mor tals with a tangled web of philoso phy and that begins no where, gets no where, and all along its troubled course studiously avoids everything that looks like common sense. In their despair, and in their deep dis gust with childish ghosh stories about an enenthropomorphic God, a god of human attributes and characteristics, It not of human form, an ever swell ing throng of thinking men and women posessing neither chart or compass, have drifted tar out upon tho troubled sea of agnosticism and atheism and are "As a weed, flung from a rock On Ocean's crest to sail. Where e're the surgo may sweep, Tho tempest's breath prevail." .-. The drift of science Is Godward. Mind is tho only attraction, the only law, for, resolved to Its ultlmato analysis, God is spiritual law, and man, being tho manifestation or ex pression of that law, Is spiritual con sciousness. Science and religion, rightly understood, are one and the same, for science is ascertained truth, knowledge of ultimate principle and Its laws. Religion is faithful obedi ence to the laws of God, who is the only principle, cause or substance of the universe, that "substaneo of things hoped for." There is, there can be no science that leaves omnipo tence, omniscience and omnipres ence out of tho reckoning, or seeks to divide the all with any supposed part thereof; or to crowd the Infinite into the finite. Matter may seem real, but "there ain't no such ani mal.' All there really is of man is "consciousness" and consciousness is neither in nor of matter nor indeed can be. A mortal man is but the "two and two are five" ot tho lazy school boy. Neither he nor the visi ble universe was created by spirit, God, for God's universe is good and eternal and can no more perish than God can perish. Tho material scien tists admit that matter is doomed to destruction, Were a single iota of God's creation to perish, that mo ment would God cease to bo inrinito, and therefore cease to be God. Like cannot produce its unlikeness and matter was neither created by spirit, nor self-created. It Is but a mirage, a misstatement of mind, a reversal of the truth of being; a stato and stage of consciousness, and has no reallty savo as we give it reality. When the wold fully recogni7.es this fact, and acknowledges it, there will this "mor tal put on immortality," and the old (material) heavens and tho old (ma terial) earth will pass away, and tho now (spiritual) heavens and tho new (spiritual) earth appear, and the Fatherhood of God and the brother hood of man bo established forover. God Is good, and good alone is con structive. The law of God Is the law of good. Evil, the antithesis of good, s Irrevocably destructive In Its nature and instinct, the denial of good; to behold evil," is not both good and evil, nor capable of producing evil or matter, or of tolerating them. It is its nature to destroy anything and everything unlike itself. Evil is igno rance, a mere negation, in everything unlike truth; and; if spirit, lod, Is truth, as the Bible doclares, and the antithesis of matter, then matter is evil, and that state of consciousness which recognizes matter and evil Is according to the degree ot its boliet, an uniformed, an Ignorant state of consciousness. Its only escape from that deplorable condition is the one prescribed by tho very founder of Christianity, viz; "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." God's unlverso is tho omnl presont, spiritual manifestation or ex pression of Himself and His idea. He knows no other. "He that dwelloth In tho secrot placo of the most high shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty." T. E. SCA.NTL1N. TORPEDO BOAT GRILSE AT SEA OTTAWA, Ont.,. I)ee. 13.
