John M. Robertson, the liber
al candidate for parliament il
England, has a very interesting
article in the International Re-
view on the black and white
races in Africa, and the effects
of religion. From this article we
quote a few paragraphs that are
worthy Of serious thought.
He shows. what will be a sur
prise to many, that Mohammed-
anism has done more to elevate
and civilize the native tribes of
Africa than Christianity.
While the slave trade is still
conducted by the Arabs, this is
done in spite of the religion OF
Islam, which gives far less sane
ton to slavery than used to be
drawn from the Bible by slave
traders in the United States.
Wherever the natives embrace
Mohammedanism the slave trade
ceases, the raiders only making
captives Of the unbelievers.
Complete Mohammedanization Of
Africa would wipe out that traffic
in human flesh and blood.
Mohammedism also eliminates
the drink evil wherever it is
established, and it must be re-
membered that it was established
in Africa by the so-called Chris
tian nations, and the opium
traffic as well.
We pass this question without
comment, on to the committee
on Foreign Missions, at the meet
ing Of one of the great branches
of religious work to be held in
enc of our Corvallis churches In
few days. AS Grover expresses
it, "It is a condition that con-
fronts us, not a theory"

That means trouble all over the
state.
What a travesty it is on our
boasted civilization. nearly
every man in town yesterday
morning was wearing broad
smile. The stables report not a
single rig of any description left.
Teams starting off in all direc-
tions, with men and boys. And
the cause of all the excitement is
the beginning of .ae open season
for China pheasants. The law
gives the privilege of killing
something, and to kill something
is mans chief delight. The great
object and aim in life is now to
see who will get the biggest
string. Truly are we barbarians
all.
The races of the Multnomah
Fair Association, held at Irving
ton Park, Portland, from Sept
az to Sept 26, have demonstrated
the fact that honest racing will
receive the sanction of the public
aud will be we'll patronized.
Over 1000 people attended the
meet. The races were square
and honest efforts. The best
horses won, and there was no
trickery allowed. Nothing else
could be expected from the men
who composed the association,
under the presidency of such a
royal sportsman as Lou Adams,
OF the Transfer Co. We extend
our congratulations.
The name of our popular pho
tegrapher, w. G. Emery, ap-
pears among the list of artists
whose work was selected by the
judges at the annual convention
of the photographers of the
Northwest, held at Salem last
week., as worthy of sufficient
merit to form collection of
pictures to be sent next. year to
the National Convention, where
1t will be known as the official
exhibit of the p. A. Of the P. N.
w. This exhibit will also be
sent to the California Conven-
ton. to be held IN San Francisco
next month, and also to the
Worlds Fair at st. Louis in
1904. Our reporter learns from
Mr.. Emery that the photos selec-
ted from his exhibit were of two
little girls living in Corvallis,
one a 11xI4 carbon of Lois Gould
and an 8x1o carbon of Inez
Grant. The perfect poses and
sweet faces of these little tots
will therefore meet the admiring
gaze of many thousands during
the two years which will elapse
before their return home.

SIGNIFICANT QUERIES
Journeymen Stonecutters Of New
York Seem to Have Acted
as Blackmailers.

New York, July 22.-Before Judge New
burger in the court Of general sessions,
Lawrence Murphy formerly treasurer Of
the Journeymen Stone Cutters associa-
ton, has been placed on trial for grand
larceny. The specific charge is that Muir
ply appropriated $12,719, all the funds of
the union. Some of the questions asked. by
John F. Mcintyre, Murphy's counselor, in
examining talesmen which were regarded
as important and significant were: IF the
evidence during the trial Of this case
shows that it was customary in this stone
cutters union to levy fines and penalties
upon master masons, owners, builders,
and bosses, would this prejudice you
against the defendants?"
IF it is shown that thru the threats and
fear these owners have given up to per-
sons in the union, large sums of $4,000,
$40, 900, s25,OO0 and 900 from time to
time, would your verdict be inf1uenced?'
Gould you still return an unprecedented
verdict continued Mr.. Mcintyre If we
prove that persons connected with the
union were in the habit Of meeting in a
saloon to arrange plans for extorting
money from owners, builders and con-
struction companies, and then divided
among themselves these large sums sur
rendered to them to prevent strikes or to
bring them to an end?"
