Many OF these have been rcpettlons Of

PICTURES OF CHRIST,

A timely article at this season APP
ptaB In the current number Of Public
Opinion on 'Likenesses Of Christ in
Art II consists OF quotations from a
paper by Sir Wyke Bayliss, president
Of the Royal Society Of British Artists
ON this subject, IN which the author
sets forth the somewhat exceptional
view, that existing portraits Of
Christ are, in the main, true to the
original Il has generally been sup
posed that these paintings represented
Only the ideals OF the respective artists,
but Sir Wyke maintains the anthem
ITCHY Of the existing pictures.
He arrives az this conclusion by %
process OF reasoning similar to that
by which theologlans establish the
genulneness Of the Scriptures. He goes
back step by step, until he comes to
the earliest ages, and the similarity
between all the existing portraits, he
thinks, can he accounted for only on
the superstition that they an have for
prototype common original
Tho paintings Of Raphael Corregio,
Michaelangolo, and Albert Duerer he
says, takes us back to the period Of
the Renaissance. Their paintings Of
Christ exhibit most striking similar
lty. Then he proceeds to consider the
frescoes I'm the cataconbs, These, he
claims, are mostly from the third and
second centuries There are two like.
nesses IN the cataoombs--one that Of a
Roman youth, and the other that
which rcappeow IN the paintings Of
the masters. one is symboncal the
other, we are told is clearly a real like
ness.
But Sir Wyke considers the 'pateN'
stIl more convincing He explains what
these are, In early ages OF the
church they would lay the body OF their
dead upon a layer OF fresh mortar Be
fore the grave was closed sacrament
al cup would be placed near the head
Of the corpse, The vessels were Of glass
ana would fan to pieces, while their
base would lmbcd itself IN the mortar
and be preserved on these bases the
sane likeness Of Christ has been found.
There are portraits Of John OF Paul, Of
Peter and Of Christ
Another testimony IS drawn from
the so.called Veronlcas The le-
gtnd IS that Veronica, plying
Jesus. as lie went 10 His DEATH wiped
the sacred countcnance with a piece Of
cloth, and that His portrait was mirac.
ulougly impressed on the fabric. Sir
Wyke says the Yeronicas are face.
cloths from the graves Of the FIRST mar
tyrs, on which Roman artists had
painted a likeness Of Christ, as the
Romans very often buried the dead
with pictureclOth on thelr faces. Ihe
paintings OF the renaissance, the mo-
sales OF the basilicas, the pictures on
the sacramental vessels, the pateras,
and the Veronlcas, form, according to
the author quoted, very strong test!-
mony In favor Of the authentlclty Of
the likeness preserved to us as that Of
the Redeemer. As will be readily seen,
the strength Of the argument depends
entirely on the statement that the varl'
Gus pictures given W. are In the main
Identical This Is denied by compe-
tent authority.

THE MoMENToUs QUESTION

That there are at least two sides to
every public question Is generally con-
eeded. II may therefore be admitted
that the present water-bonds question
Is not all one-slded, There is to be a
comparison Of the opposing sides on
this matter tonight The Commercial
Club of this clty--a recognized Import
ant factor in local adairs--wili afford
opportunity for the desired presenta-
ton. Every fact and proposition as
ISOLATED with the vital question OF a
permanent and suitable water supply
for this city, ought to be brought out
clearly,
However. the immediate point to be
considered IS the voting on the pro-
posed bonds, The terms on which
negotiations shall be entered into FOR
the exchange Of water, and all the
disputed matters which directors have
urged, may consistently be made sec
ondary to the main proposition now
confronting She taxpayers. An election

The Deseret News has been outspoken
for many years against increased tax
alton, by which the burdens Of the
people would be increased instead OF
lightened. 1t has also opposed the e.
Establishment Of water commissions
which we viewed as contrary TO vested
powers IN existing authorities But on
the present vital question we stand
solldly for the Issuance OF the proposed
bonds. az we recognize that 1t would
not be the means OF increasing the load
upon the taSrayers. nor Of making new
offices. nor Of deprlvlng the munici-
nallty Of any lawful powers, but
would make possible and sure q pro-
