''The principal thing that Christian
Science teaches ard demonstrates is
that God is Air' and that God is
Love" the understanding of these
propositions and their demonstration
by practice heals the sick and reforms
the sinner. Christian Science admits
that to the sick and suffering the pain
and disease are very real, but wnen
through the understanding that God
is All and that God is Love-" the
come nOthingness, a proof which is
infinitely more potent than would be
whole volumes of abstract specula-
tions on the subject The cure is
wrought not simply bS refusing to be-
lieve in disease or pain and by be-
lieving in God" but by the uLder-
standing of God and His relation to
man and the universe" says Henry
Deutsch in the Pioneer Press of ST.
Paul
ITO those who come to it with a
spirit of honest investigation and will
ir.gness to be taught, Christian Science
becomes readily comprehensive How

that are worthy Of the name. Christ

Senator Brown thepe are two verdicts.
If you believe she Hlled him after
she is guilty of murder in

AMEND ATTACHMENT LAW

PORTLAND, Nov. 3O.-A special
meeting of the commercial bodies of
the state will be held in Portland to-
morrow to consider the necessity OF
asking Governor Chamberlain to call
q special session of the legislature. The
meeting has been very quietly ar
ranged and for time it was the orig
inal Intention TO keep the meeting a
secret Home banking AMI business in
teIests are asking for special legisla-
tion and the special session may be
called TO meet this demand
Speaking of the proposed session
Governor Chamberlain said: 81 under
stand that a meeting of the states
commercial bodies will be held here to-
morrow TO ask me to call a special
session Of the legislature I understand
that an amendment to the attachment
law is desired and the passage of a law
arranging for holidays which will pro-
tect the banks and at the same time
allow the courts to continue. l have not
yet decided what action l would take
should the special session be request
ed. l would certainly consider the mat
ter very carefully. If 1 thought that
public necessity demanded such a
session of the Legislature l would call
it although personally do not wish to
do So
The meeting will be held at the
Portland Commercial club The desire
for amendment of the attachment law
is strong. At present the Oregon law
is loosely constructed and foreign
creditors are given unusual powers
over native business men. The local
men feel that they should have protec-
tion and are anXiOuSly demanding it.

JAPS MAY Be
IN DEEP WATER
Important Evidence Given
Before Commissioner
TREATY WAS VIOLATED
GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS ALTER
ED POLICY IN REGARD TO
cOOLlE IMMIGRATION TO
THE DOMINION.

VANCOUVER, B. c., Nov. 30.-Evi-
dence that is given credit for the
greatest weight and which may bear
the fruit of Importance in diplomacy
negotiations, changing in a large de-
gree at least, the cordial relations now
existing between Japan and Great
Britain, was Introduced before the jap
anese immigration commission yester-
day afternoon by S. Gotch of the Nip
pom Supply company
Gotch testified that he had made a
visit to Japan last winter AMI that
While there he persuaded the japanese
immigration company to see their gov
ernment officials and persuade the Off
cials to alter their policy in regard to
restricted cOOlie immigration to Can
ada. This was successful ard the gov
ernment decided to allow Wholesale
immigration as long as it was shown
that the men had work in Canada.
Gotch testified that the men had been
supplied to the railway companies for
construction here.
Federal Commissioner King was ap-
parently greatly impressed with the
testimony of Gotch. "The mission of
the commission has been finished" he
said when the witness closed. He de-
clared later that he could not see how
the Japanese government could explain
it's action as laid bare by Gotch in the
face of their agreement looking to re-
stricted immigration in the treaty with
Great Britain.

WOMAN Tells P|T|FvL TALE
ANNA HERMANN AGAIN UNDER
ARREST CHARGED WITH
DIsoRDERLY CONDUCT. O

The perplexing problem as to WHAT
disposition shall be made or Anna Her
man is again the main topic of discus
sion about police headquarters today.
For many months the woman has
furnished amusement for the local city
papers; articles appearing regularly
under the caption. ''AnL.a Welcomed
Home Again. "Anpa Herman Runs
Amuck," etc. With the arrest of the
unfortunate woman last evening by Of
ficer Buck who charges her with dis
orderly conduct, the Wit and0 humor
here ofore almost necessarily dis
played to play up a story of the de-
graded woman is peculiarly missing
fortunately lacking.
Last evening the proprietor of a To-
cal hotel informed the police Jepart-
ment that a woman had been occupy
ing one of the rooms in the building
for the past 4S hours and that she re-
fused to leave. Officer Buck was i'm
mediately detailed to investigate the
case and upon entering the room oc-
cupied by the Herman woman founl
her in a most deplorable condition.
When taken to the police station she
was questioned as TO the cause of her
conduct and in reply she told pitiful
story of her downfall. She saidb that
her mother who now resides in Mos
COW, Idaho, was the cause of her dis
grace and that she had compelled her
to have degrading relations with men
because of the good financial profit She
received in doing so. With tears
streaming down her cheeks she con-
tinued her story of degradation and
the horror of her career since she en-
tered upon the life OF m:Ssry and
shame.
The woman now occupies a cell i'm
the womans ward of the county Jail
where she will probably remain for
several months or until some arrange
ments can be made for her keeping.

DEBT OF HONOR
At LAST. PAID
WALLA WALLA CITIZENS AID IN
FREEING WHITMAN MONU.
MENT, FROM CLOUD.

Through the diligent and untiring eff
forts of Rev. j. @. Reid and, President
S. B. l.. Penrose, the debt against tne
Whitman monument has been raised.
In less than eight hours. $3.50 was
pledged by the business and profess
sional men of Walla Walla. and this
amount together with the $500 sub
scribed by the various churches, Octo-
Der p is sufficient to pay the remain
der Of the debt
The history of the labor attached to
the erection of this beautiful memo
rial shaft has oftimes been repeated
through the press and from the pulpit,
yet at the. same time the brave strug-
gle in honorably liquidating the debt
is worthy of renewed attention.
Ten years ago the shaft was COM
pleted the total cost of which was
$2100. The monument was unvai.ed
shortly after its completion with inn
posing ceremonies, yet the debt still
remaining against the structure was
$1,100. The agreement entered into be-
tween the contractors and the prime
factors in the movement was so draw
as to provide that no lein could be
placed against the monument prOvid-
ing the cost of the erection was not
paid within a stipulated time. 1t will
thus be seen, the debt could legally be
termed outlawed yet it was a debt of
honor and the beautiful tomb over the
remains of their Christian martyr must
be paid.
1t was not until during the past two
years that the work of concluding this
debt was taken up in rea. earnestness.
By an agreement reached at the re-
cent session of the Washington synod
held at Tacoma the churches through
out the state were asked to subscribe
to this fund, and October 81. 1907, set
aS the date for the contributions The
amount received at this time, however,
was not as encouraging as expected
as less than $500 was subscribed. With
renewed zeal and with the jetermina-
ton to cancel this indeb; ;edness, Rev.
Reid, President Penrose and Rev. Rice
willingly entered upon the task. While
Rev. Rice was unfortunately absent
during the last campaign for funds, he
was nevertheless Instrumental in lend
icto rd IN m
is partly due the grand success.
The last canvass was completed last
Friday, when Rev. Reid chairman of
the committee, announced that suffi-
cient promises had been secured to
guarantee the liquidation of the debt.
The amount pledged, which included
$3.50 in cash. was also sufficient to .pay
the expenses of yesterdays Eelebra-
ton.
