Japanese Temple in Peru.

A Japanese temple has recently been erected in Peru by priest named Taian Uyeno. It is the first of its kind ou the continent. The priest went to Fern in 1903 with 1000 Japanese emi- grants with instructions to propagate Buddhism. After great hardsnips' working first as laborer and then as h maker of confectionery, Uyeno slow iy amassed enough money to construct a temple, which he called "Jionji,' or .@Great Mercy" Later he founded |primary school for the education of

And again, and it is to this latter
statement of the editor that / wish, in
the interest of the truth of history. to
make brief reply. Says the editor: The
undertaking is bound to attract wide
attention because of the recognized lib
erality of thought which characterizes

I wonder if the editor of The Herald
has read the pope's encyclical sent out to
the church a few months ago? In char
ity l think he has not, or else he would
not have written as he has. The pope
is the recognized head of the church
and hence his edicts are law. An exam
ination into the authoritative instructions
of the encyclical will show, If l have
read the popes letter Alright, not only
Just the opposite of what the editor of
The Herald asserts, but will moreover,
relegate the pope to the middle ages.
The unequivocal position Of the pope
is against what he is pleased to call
modernism" which Is only another
term for the. critical spirit of the age
in its wide search for truth, no matter
what cherished dogma may have to be
yielded up nor what deiusion tradition
may be compelled to surrender to the
discovered verities of tireless search
for the things which God would have us
know.
The pope's letter DEGREES, among other
things. that all "modernist" professors
of literary institutions and educational
directors shall lose their places. And
this edlct will fall most heavily upon the
men in charge of the higher institutions
of learning all over the land.
Furthermore, the clergy are forbidden
to read 'modernist' literature. All books
are to be censored by committee ap-
pointed for the purpose before being
placed in the hands of the clergy and the
faithful. And as II further to stife in
vestigation and control the mind and
conscience the pope declares that eccle-
siastical conferences shall be held only
on rare occasions.
And as climax the pope DEGREES a
council in every diocese whose office and
work is to oppose all modern interpreta-
tion. thus giving the strongest proof pos
sible of the spirit of traditionalism and

The ubIic Letter Box
EXPRESSES HIS OPINION
ON "RELlGIoUs PROGRESS"

A few days ago there appeared an edi-
torial discussion of the above subject in
The Herald 1t was based on the action
of Pope Plus X in appointing commits
sion to revise the Vulgate, the accredited
Scriptures in use by the Roman Catholic
church.
Revision is not a new thing with the
Roman church. Indeed, the present vol
ume of the Bible, TO revise which the
commission has been appointed by the
pope had it's beginning more than 1900
wears ago. when Jerome undertook the
task of revising the many Latin versions
of his day The work was completed in
405 and while Jerome's version had SUI
perseded all others and was the textbook
Of the church, 1t was not till 1916 that
the Tridentine council officially declared
it to be such.
But revisions and lamentations had be-
come so numerous and varied that, to put
the matter forever at rest, another re-
vision was had, calling forth papal
bull indorsing and making authentic the
work of the revisions. This was in 1890.
But still the revision was incomplete,
for two years later, in 1892, the old
book was called in and a new one issued
the one in use today--to revise which
the pope has appointed a committee, in
trusting the work to the Benedictine
order.
This, as I gather from history, is about
the order and status of the Vulgate re-
vision begun by Jerome as reviser of
revisions more than 1900 years ago. But
all this is merely incidental to or sug-
gestive of the point ! wish to discuss In
this communication.
The Herald in discussing the subject
departs somewhat from line of logical
dissertation to pay homage to the Chris
tian liberaIity of the Roman church and
to make a side thrust at Professionalism
for it's supposed lack of charity and the
narrowmindedness with which it DETER
mines all theological questions given
birth at Rome. 1t seems to me that this
phase of the case was altogether un-
necessary, not to say illogical, or, as the
lawyers would put it, irrelevant, imma-
teriai and constitutes no part of the
res jesta." Or was 1t simply a morceau
of editorial taffy to stimulate the
vanity of ''this powerful church,?
The editor of The Herald, in speaking
of the appointment and possible co-op-
GRAFTON of Protestants with the commit
tee of revision, says: This is another
evidence of the increasing tendency of

HyHE passage yesterday by the counties
committee of the California promo
Il tion committe, of the radical anti
rebate resolutions of Isidor Jacobs in
stead of the emasculated platltudes
sought to be substituted by the resolu-
tions committee, marks definitely the in
auguration of the new epoch in the rela-
ton of the business public of California
toward this railroad problem. This was
a meeting of business men, largely ship
pers in a high degree sensitive to rail
road favor or disfayor. The resolutions
as introduced by Jacobs were very vigor-
Gus and very definitely to the point. AS
they came back from the resolutions COM
mittee they were vapidly piatitudinous
and safely general-just tie sort of reso-
lutions conventions of business men are
in the habit of passing. But after de-
bate on the floor the original outspoken
resolutions were substituted, by very
large majority, and stand as the voice of
the united commercial bodies of Cali
fornia Even more significant every per
son who spoke against the adoption Of
the resolutions, on the plea that their
language was too radical, expressed him
self as personally convinced that their
statements were correct and justified So,

HNHE Los Angeles people now fighting
the billboard nuisance have won a
n victory that should encourage resi-
dents Of other cities who are hoping for
the day when the unslghtly poster shall
become an abomnation of the past.
Some months ago the city council of Los
Angeles passed an ordinance imposing a
tax on billboards, which the men en-
gagged in that dishguring industry de-
clared would drive them out of business
if the ordinance were enforced. They
obtained an order from the superior court
temporarily restraining the city from
prosecuting offenders under the ordin-
ance. That order has now been set
aside and the city can proceed against
the billboard fiends.
In his opinion Judge Bordwell, who
heard the case. gave little comfort TO the
poster-pasting people. "All questions of
policy or the wisdom of the act of the
council" he said, "in selecting this. that
or the other business or class and the
omission of others rest exclusively with
the council, and the courts will never
review them. Only when the court can
say, as matter of law. that the or
dinance places an inequality upon certain

SHOULDER TO SHOULDER

"HE counties committee of the

N at it's recent session at Fresno

railroads for their disregard of the
laws of the state and for rebating
and discriminating against shippers,
and demanding that the state legis-

is well to keep the result Of this con-
vention's action before the people Of all
parts of California. The cut and dried
plan of the convention was to adopt q
mild resolution. something that would
not embarrass the railroads, would not
hurt the feelings OF the Organization"
But it did not pull through. Mr.
Jacobs succeeded, after hard flght, in
reading his resolution, in spite of boots
and jeers. That these mouthings were
bluff, pure and simple, developed when,
at the time of the vote, but three
hooters dared to place themselves on
record by standing and being counted
as opposed to the Jacobs resolution.
This augurs we'll for the future Of
California. 1t may be taken to mean
that the opposition to the prosecution
of the Southern Pacific for its con-
fessed crimes is lacking in that moral
fiber which is essential to success. 1t
means that all that is necessary to
bring the railroad to book for its mani
fold crimes is a determined front.

CLEAR. CRISP AND CLEAN
A FAITHFUL ACHATES

mHE devotion of that eminent
statesman, United States Senator
George C. Perkins, to his great
and good friend President Roosevelt
reminds us in many ways of that other
fable touching upon the relations exist
ing between those boon companions of
mythology. Damon and Pythias, and OF
the heart-stirring story of Achates.
Senator Perkins maintains in Wash
ington press bureau now engaged in
the excruciatingly pathetic labor of
clearing the path of his great friend
of the obstacles which have lain be-
tween the latter and his long-desired
retirement from executive labors.
Most assiduously does the faithful
Achates labor toward this end. No
stone is too heavy for him to lift. To
make sure that the president is not
misled into following the wrong path.
to assure that the wrong road shall be
made as nearly impossible as human
ingenuity can render it. so that if the
president should happen to stray he
would instantly seek the road cleared
for him by willing hands-this is the
task which Senator Perkins has put his
hand.
The product of the Perkins press
bureau passes through the United
States mails, under a congressional
frank, of course, to all California news
papers which express a desire for or
willingness to receive it. Between the
1t,,os mas he diScarnad that rara dav0-
tion to which we have directed atten-
tion. Under date of December 13,
which fell on Friday, Senator Per-
kins writes:
1T remains now to be seen whether
the extended movement to renominate
the president at the June convention
win be continued or not. The forces
identified with the federal office
holders that it has been looked upon
as having the presidents sanction"
Thus, alasl does Senator Perkins
fail for once in his devotion to Roose-
velt. Is it possible that during his
absence from his bureau headquarters
a treacherous amanuensis or clerk
-'eQ1teQf Lne senator's S copy Is IL
possible that the astute California
statesman, falling asleep at his post
Of seif-imposed duty for moment,
permitted some arch-enemy of his
great and good friend to litter with
instructions the path he had once
cleared? Or does the faithful Achates
desire nothing more than to sound a
word of warning to the object of his
solicitation that the latter may not be
trapped into taking a false step?
Possibly the true solution may be
found in an affirmative answer to the
last question. 1t would appear SO, for
after the words quoted we read this
lightly veiled threat:
"Should 1t still continue, it might
give cause for awkward questions and
afford lever by which the Clayton
resolution relative to third terms could
be pushed through"
President Roosevelt is to be felici-
tated upon having so devoted a friend
adviser and guardian as Senator Per-
kins. He has few partisans who would
be so presumptuous as to warn him to
watch OUT for the third term goblin
in terms so pointed as those employed
by this daring champion and defender,
