DIVINE HEALING.
Attitude of Some Ministers PASSING
Strange. Rev. WatSon'S Position.

EDITOR HERALD: - Kindly allow me
space IN your valuable journal for few
words on healing the sick by Divine
power, as exempified by DR.. Mclnturf,
and to take some exceptions to the letter
OF Rev. Watson published in the Bulletin
OF Saturday, from the standpoint of a
layman with no particular church aflilia-
tion-or prejudice.
l have heard DIR. McInturf preach sev-
eral times in this city, and heard no doc.
trlne asserted detrimental to that taught
by the meek and owly Nazarene, and |
have personal knowledge Of some of the
healngs effected by him in Aberdeen,
and, as he makes no charge for his heal
ing, and his preaching has no other ten
dency than to increase interest in Chris.
tianlty, | confess the position OF some
ministers OF Aberdeen, in trying TO be-
little him, have to my mind assumed a
very inconsistent attitude. The persons
healed are known, and the facts can
readily be learned, but it seems that
those who are most noisy in decry ing
this work have made no effort whatever
to verify their allegations.
The position taken by DR.. Watson is
not tenable, from scriptural point OF
view. He says, "The only instruction
for the present age that the Elders of
the church are to anoint, and the prayer
Of faith is to save the SICK" How much
more do we want? He then says, "there.
fore miraculous gifts have gone from the
church," That lie, because God does
heal the sick, therefore He does not
heal the sick" That surely is a most
ponderous therefore" He says DR..
Mclnturf is in error in saying miraculous
gifts do remain with the church today.
That is, in MIR. Watson's opinion these
gifts do not remain. Just what his opin.
ion has to do with it is beyond me, in
the light OF the scriptures.
Regarding his statement that Phillip
could not impart miraculous gifts, find
Acts 8:8-l7, that apostle referred to laid
on hands not for miraculous gifts, but to
impart the Holy Ghost. Again, Acts
1867, see the Phillip had power to
perform miracles in marvellous manner.
Quoting Paul, Mr.. Watson betrays as
great density on Greek as he does
throughout his letter ON Bible QUOTA
tions. would be pleased to have him
give the chapter and verse where Paul
said these gifts would be withdrawn.
Yours for a Square Deal,
J. G. X.

MONTESANO SUICIDE.
Hotel Nan Shoots Himself in the
Head Friday Afternoon.

MoNrEsANo, March 23,-Alexander
Nichols, proprietor OF the Montesano ho-
tel, was found dead in his room, reclin-
ing on the bed, yesterday afternoon with
bullet hole in his right temple, and a
32-calibre pistol lying on his stomach.
Nichols had been drinking heavily the
night before, and went to his room about
s O'Clock in the morning. No one heard
the shot and it is not known Just when
he committed the fatal act, as it was not
discovered until O'Clock in the Afternoon.
Coroner Girard was summoned and an
examination showed the bullet had en-
tered the head above the right ear, and
passed through door into the next
room where it was found. He left note
to his wife bidding her and his two
daughters goodbye and apologizing for
his conduct.
Nichols was about 4S years of age and
was member OF the city council and
constable of his precinct, and leaves
wife and two daughters who are highly
respected, and who have the sympathy
OF this entire community in their sore
bereavement.

found that the option he had put up for
did not run TO him, and he Immediately

HoQUIAM, March 22.--The double cut
band saw of the Hoquiam Lumber &

mill in which it was was completely
wrecked. The huge wheels were thrown
in all directions, and it was miraculous
that no one was killed or injured.
Other pieces went up through the roof,

This will curtail the cut OF this large

THE WAY OF IT.

When ! was very young and saw
The way my sisters beau
Made OF himself an arrant fool
said I'd ne'er do So
But many girls I've loved since then,
And | much better know!
Each time that love bade me 10 WOO
Most willingly / won't
Each time she was the dearest glrl
In any continent,
Each time the angel did with me
Whatever was her bentl
And ey'ry time the one loved
Another fellow we'd,
wondered how she ever had
Completely turned my Lead,
And Nicer will be fooled again."
Unto myself said!
But love IL sueh a curious thing,
All-seeing though it's blind,
II Il would only take ones heart
And not also ones mind.
| guess more happy marriages
And happier we'd find
oh, I've been fooled full many times
Although I'm fairly bright,
The mill Is one we all pass through
Whose hearts are tuned Alright,
And though'love makes slave OF you
You'll hail It with delight!
And then--well, then like me some
day
You'll fall in It's sweet strife,
Some angel fair will promise you
To be your own for life,
And you'll be prouder FAR than Punch
To think you've won a wife!

NO DANGER OF PANIC.

There is no danger OF a panic.
Those who are predicting It over.
look the fact that the worlds vol
ume Of money Is increasing. Raising
prices follow an increase In the cur
rency and It Is impossible to have a
general panic when prices are rising,
or course, there will be readjust-
ments In special cases where specu-
lation raises prices above the nor
NAL level but we may expect a steady
Increase in the level OF prices and a
continuation OF prosperity as long
as the volume OF money increases
more rapidly than population and
business.
The trouble is not with wealth
production, but with distribution,
The trusts are bleeding the public;
the tariff barous are extorting from
consumers and the railroads are ov-
exchanging patrons, but these things
can be remedled now easier than ever
before. The trusts can be dissolved
and they will employ more people
and sell more goods under compe-
tltion; the tariff can be reduced and
the wage roll and the output in
creased; railroad rates can be re-
duced and the patrons can use the
money thus saved in buying what
the manufacturers have to sell.
Now is the time to dissolve the
trusts, reform the tariff and reduce
railroad rates and no threat OF panic
should scare the public,-Bryan's
Commoner.
