THE UNEXPECTED HAPPENS.
SOMH wise men should discover a law of tlic unexpected. Tlie un
expected always luiiipeiis. 'J'lie i'ew limes it doesn't happen
merely proves the rule.
' Those things one worries about almost never mnteriiilizo and the
v.-orry is found to have been needless. Then there is no apprehension
whatever and suddenly the bolt falls from a clear sky, and pride goes
before tho fall. '
If someone could root out the principles of this law, a great deal
of harm could be avoided and a (treat deal of suffering either escaped
or greatly mitigated. .

There Is great rejoicing In anti-tax
circles. The now governor proposes peeled always happens.
to open his tax reduction campaign
by creating three now jobs at $1000
per, for each, It Is likely the "hostile
press" and tho "corporate Interests"
will battle this move to "take the load
oft the masses."
Mid to the tune of "Onward Christian .Soldiers,"- the country ob
cerved over 4,0(10,0110 voters rally to the standard of the greatest
American political leader of the present generation.
Everyone expected such a husky infant to endure. Many expect
ed it to gain political control in its first assault.
Hut the unexpected happened. In four years the Bull Moose
had completely disappeared and the two old parties were as vigorous
and combative us ever. ' .
Today there are similar evidences of political gestation. But, ac
cording to the prophets and even according to the leaders of the in
(urgent movements, no Third party is to result. There are only to
be a few blocs here and there, to act as burrs for the respective hides
of the Elephant and the Donkey.
. lint there is good reason to believe that the unexpected again is
going to happen. Under the surface of apparent calm, deep waters
are menacingly turbulent. There is, in our opinion, a real Third
party now in the making, a radical-labor-farmer-libernl party.
And in all likelihood, in l.wo years from now or six, Uncle Sam
will see the Democratic and Republican war horses join hands to com
bat the forces of what they will call the "Reds," while the "Reds''
will bo shoulder to shoulder storming the citadel of what they will
call the Reactionaries.
Politicians are, in the mass, very much like sheep. They saw. a
Third party blow lip and disappear overnight, so they conclude that
history will repca itself, and a Third party is impossible this time.
Maybe. And then maybe not. In all likelihood, there' will not
be three parties for long, but neither the Donkey nor the Elephant
can claim immortality. It would not surprise some people to see one
of them disappear or merge with the other, making a political animal
of entirely new characteristics and dimensions.
And one of the soundest reasons for this belief is that the Unex-

JAMES TOW1IEAD went to Dingbat's store, where he had
purchased goods, salt codfish, varnish for the floor, and pur
ple riding hoods, and saws to hew, and drills to bore, and shred
ded breakfast foods, .lames said, "The first- will soon bo here,
when I should pay my bill, but I can't- do the same. I fear, I'm
broke, already, si ill; 1 have a nalieess in my ear, my wife is lying
ill. Misfortune hit me unawares and made my spirit groan; the
way my gouly father swears would rend a heart of stone, my aunt
fell down the cellar stairs and broke her collarbone. Tho sur
K.con, always at. my gate, has made my bundle thin; the druggist
brings his precious freight, and bones me for the tin, nnd so your
bill will have a wait until my ship eomes in." Tho merchant cried,
"Oh, James my son, your candor cheers my soul, and you may
buy goods by the ton while you are in the hole, and you'll receive
no bill or dun until yoii have your roll. All merchant princes
like to aid the man who doesn't sneak, who, finding pay must be
delayed the candid trulh will speak; we'll wait till your misfor
tunes fade, be it a year or week. Your credit's good, so help me

healing meetings frequently at Ash
land,.. Oregon, in September and all
to meetings he held In Aledford. I
'At Albany his work was running j
stronger, both spiritually ami in!
Physical -healings, than at Ashland
linger crowds came to the meetings
when tlicro wns no prayer for heal
ing, and people responded more hear
tily to his invitations ("ultar inllh")
to come forward and seek Christ.
llundredH came to kneel nnd find
Christ as their personal Savior or to
receive fulness of blessing from Cod
in Christ, nearly .00 at tho last
afternoon meeting thnt wo attended,
and many at every service.
On "healing nights" tho Armory
would bo crowded (except for sec
tions reserved for business nnd work
Ingmen and women, or others), two
hours before time for tho meeting
nnd a larger building wns needed nt
many other times. People came from
nil over the Willnmetto Valley, nnd
evon from Washington and as far as
Montana. Mnny wero nettled in
answer to prayer, Dr. Trice always
nscribing this only to tho Jiower of
Ood, and In no way to himself.
Several ministers and a number of
well-known business men and others
of real prominence wero henled at
Albany of deafness, rupture, bad eye-
sight, and other iliseases nnd sickness
including somo said to be nt the
point of dentil when anointed anJ
prayed for.
I saw a woman, after her anoint
ing and prnyor by Dr. Trice, rise
straightway from her cot, where she
bnd lain nil day nt the side of the!
platform and then run, leaping and
praising (Jod. across the Armory nnd
afterwards walk out and go to he
boarding place. She was from lielle
fountain. Ore., and I understand U
well-known there. Iter brother-in-law
told me she had been sick for 19
years, and was bedfast or helpless
moro or less of that time, and had
been so for over a year. The same
day the pastor of the Ciraco Presby
terian Church, Albany, wns healed at
his own homo of severe deafness of
10 yenrs standing,' while praying for
the meetings and himself. Others
whom I know personally wore henl
ed, as was also tho case nt Ashland
and In my own home nnd congrega
tion at Phoenix.
Tersonnl letters to Mr. Gore from
Albany since wo came home sav:
"Thanksgiving night a lady who had
been confined to her bed nnd clmir
for 11 yenrs rose up at tho command
nnd walked the whole length of the
Armory, nnd thon,quiotly nnd firmly
back to her place." "A young man
paralyzed for yenrs, who was la' the
congregation, fell Lover under the
power during tho- healing service.
Dr. Price anointed nnd prayed for
him, and he walked home without his
crutches. He had two vertebrae of
his neck Injured so that physicians
had said that but pno other c.tse was
recorded where- tho patient lived
after such nn accident." "VVomler-
ful ' healings are taking place it
homes, sometimes in tho night." "Dr
W. II. lfinson of Portland, (prominent
Ilnptlst pastor) came up nnd was
healed." ,
"Friday night Dr. Trice was called
to Corvallis before he had finished
tho anointing nnd Dr.'" MeCrossan
(United Presbyterian pastor) took
his plncc nnd prayed for six people
all of whom wero healed, including n
woman 75 years old and crippled.
Saturday night six local ministers as
sisted Dr. Price in - anointing nnd
praying' for those desiring healing,"
so that nono thought, to be ready,
would be missed. All the co-operating
churches are going right on with
tho meetings, now thnt tho meetings
at the Armory under Dr. Prlco have
closed, and some of the pastors have
announced healing services to be held
by litem In their own churches.
Those letters nlso say, regarding
Dr. Price's meetings in Albany:
"There have never been less than lfi
or 0 ovnversions twleo each il.iy, nnd
tins is n - minimum, people an over
the house fell under tho power of
the Spirit. Some fell In tho vestibule
as they went nut. Friday night 12
high school girls came together nnd
nine of them fell under the power,
nnd were nil converted. Saturday
night all these nlno were busy ns bees
bringing -their companions to Christ, I
anil people enme pouring down to the
nltnr: over 70 enme then.' Sunday
night this was repeated, until 150 1
were on their knees, mostly young
people; a wonderful sight." .Dr.
Prlco often emphasizes this nnd the
salvation of souls, and tho filling of
believers with tho Holy Spirit In I
nnswer to their own prayer and full
surrender, ns being far nnd nway the
primary objects of his work, nnd not
bodily henling.
Dr. Price loaves Albany, with the
confidence and hearty support of the
co-opernting churches nnd ministers,
and hns been invited to return, to
work mere ngaln. This week be has
held meetings at Corvallis nnd Ku
gene nnd the week before Christmas
he will be nt Ashland ngaln for a few
meetings.
When the Ashland meetings began
In September. I wns curious to see
who nnd what Dr. Price and his "di
vine healing" meetings might be. nnd
1 wns very doubtful that they ought
to be endorsed or would prove very
beneficial. Ttoth nt Ashland nnd Al
bany. 1 found him preaching with
marvelous simplicity, sweetness nnd
power, the simple gospel of salvation
through .lesus Christ, tho very Son
of Ood, and tho crucified ltedeemer
Chrlst and who longs to get others
to love and serve Him too. Jlo does
not criticise the "score" others, uud
seems to forget himself in an aban
don of devotion to the Christ hi
loves to preach, "Jesus Christ, the
same yesterday, today und forever!
1 believe that those who would
criticise and score Dr. Price and op
pose his work, should first study their
own iiihlcs ngaln with open minds
and hearts, ami should give hltii and
his work full and fair hearing in pel
son nnd not by hearsay, lest they "bo
found fighting ' ngalnst Ood" nnd
shutting the door of wilvntlon und
faith against some I hat might enter
in.
I want to commend heartily tin
editorial in The .Mail Tribune of De-
cenioer 14. regarding tho work of
the Jackson County Health nssocia
lion and Nurse Fuldine. She de
serves our heartiest BUooort and
prayer, as do many others who serve
so faithfully In this und other lands
in the spirit of Him who "came not
to be ministered unto, but to minis
ter nnd to give his life a ransom for
many." Dr. Prlco plainly states that
ho is not opposed to doctors, medi
cines nnd surgery, but is seeking first
of all to win people to Jesus Christ,
and to lend them to receive the full
ness of the 'Holy Spirit; and then to
pray for henling for those who have
faitli to claim It through the imme
of Christ nnd who will uso it for His
glory.
Tlie fact that hasty and bitter criti
cism and opposition has risen against
Dr. Price nnd his work is not strange.
It was so with our Lord, who said to
his followers: "If they linve perse
cuted me, they will nlso persecute
you." It is nlso written of Him
"Jesus of Nazareth, how Ood anoint
ed Him with tho Holy Spirit ur-d with
power; who went about doing good,
nnd healing all thnt wero oppressed
of the devil: for Ood wns with him."
