of wit. progressed smoothly from 1.15 until adjournment,
 Yesterday MT. Jerome devoted him self to the prisoners life history. To- day he based his questions chiefly up- on various documents, letters and memoranda which he produced in sur prising numbers. The one he found 26 sheets of foolscap paper on which were pasted a strange variety of news paper clippings and scraps of manu- script. Thaw Identified it as some thing he had prepared. and sent to Dolphin M. Delmas, his chief counsel during the first trial, for use in pre- pairing his closing speech to the jury. Some of it's contents were strange enough to cause suspicious of the au- thor's sanity. but these bits Thaw in- variably explained by saying they were letters written to him and his family by persons whose kind inten- tions probably were better than their mental balance.
 Lots of it was rubbish" he added, but some of the letters contained ideas I thought MT. Delmas might use"
 Thaw's part of the compilation showed him as a man of many tastes and interests. In it he quoted pas sages of Scripture regarding sins against the young and referred to the dragon tales in Percy's Relioues for striking similes regarding Stanford White. He culled from his volumi- nous correspondence the most striking expressions that might be put to the same use.
 Delmas' opinion of his clients sug- gestions was indicated by the fact that he turned the carefully prepared sheets over to the committee of alienists be- fore which the prisoner appeared dur ing his first trial Mir. Jerome got them from this source.
 Two Other Witnesses Heard.
 While Thaw was, of course, the cen- ter figure at the hearing today, there were two other witnesses, Susan Mer- Till, the former New York lodging house keeper, and Clifford w. Hart ridges Thaw's former attorney Mrs. Merrill went further into details re- garding Thaw's alleged abuse of. young women at her house. She admitted having had dealings also with Stan ford White.
 Hartridge testified to the truth of parts of her story He said that the money he turned over to the woman, which she said was used to prevent the girls Thaw whipped from making trouble, did not come from Thaw him self He said that he had received S1O3, 900 from Mrs. William Thaw, but had used large part of it for "vari- ous purposes" connected with bis em- ploymeht by the family.
 Evelyn Thaw was an interested. au- ditor in court again today but her husband on the stand ignored her presence She naturally looked at him but he resolutely refused to look at her Indications are that the hearing will last at least a week longer.

It is the lesson of history that where the government is
the most completely united with tn church the government
corrupt and the church is weak in its moral and spiritual
power
The campaign in Oregon for a constitutional amendment
for prohibition was started with big church meeting in East
Portland presided over by bishop,
platform was adopted and regular campaign organ
lied.
Does Oregon want public policies backed by church rule
|Of any denomination?
Is that an American proposition?
We are of the opinion that if the temperance societies. the
w. C, T. U or the Good TemparS would carry on educational
work along purely non-pOCa lines the result might be
beneficial.
But to put highly organized political machine into Oper-
atom to carry out prohibition and Sabbataran policies and
carry on the program entirely within the church organza
tonS is mistake.
There not less devotion to chtianyl not less devotion
to morality in Alabama, because the prohibition amendment
was defeated but more devotion to AmhCan ideals of free
government
If the church can rule in one matter can in another
If it can de Coree and enforce total abSnanCe by COM
mand of law can nfoCe Puritan sabbath abolish SUM-
day amuemenS stop Sreet-CaS trains steamboats, and all
open air gatherings on Sunday
It can prohibit dancing sports Of all kinds use of tobacco
and other articles on which places its ban, and the free
dom of the individual to enjoy life is gone,
The lesson Of the Alabama election is that on hard SHOW
down (excuSe the gambling phaSe) Americans oppose the
church dCtation in affairs of the state,

LESSON OF THE ALABAMA ELECTION.

Before the recent prohibition election in Alabama it was
openy and publicly declared that the churches must rule the
state
The speaker of the house of representatives left his chair
and announced on the floor of the house that the church
must rule in Alabama"
In the Alabama campaign the ChurChe lost out.
Before election day rolled around nearly two hundred men
constitution beauSe they did not Want church program
forced on the state,
This objection does not apply to any particular denomna
ton but just as offensive in one state another and
just as Objectionable from one church as another
AmeanS do not believe in the union of church and state
on any question Of great public policy
Dear christian and moral fellow citizens do you believe in
Taking the church into politics
Is that the tendency of the age
At RoSeburg in the city election there was nominating
Contntion held in church and church ticket put up
and defeated
In many other towns of Oregn this has ben done.
Is it beneficial to the churChe2
Does it really advance public moraItY2

Makes THREATS OF
A TARIFF WAX


Washington, D. C.-Unless the ne
gotiations which will be undertaken
by the State Department with Ger
many under the maximum and mini
mum clause of the tariff are very
successful and can remove the sus-
picion existing among the importers
and manufacturers over there, com
mercial war will ensue. Both Ger
many and France are greatly agi-
tated over our new tariff, and pres
sure Is being brought to bear upon
those governments to retaliate The
German manufacturers and newspa-
pers take the view that the new
tariff Is aimed chiefly at Germany.
The government in Germany is being
urged to apply the German maximum
rates to all American imports.
The Germans are pointing out
that in 1908 the American imports to
Germany amounted to 1907, 10000
whereas the German goods imported
into the United State amounted to
but S121, 100000 So the Germans
are calculating that if the United
States is bent on war of trade, Ger
many can put up with it longer than
the Americans.

Ruined by Baby Talk.

in writing in McClure's of the work
being done with defective children BY
Dr. Wilmer, the psychologist of the
University of Pennsylvania. Mari2n
Hamilton Carter says:
Once ia a while rare stammer-
ing case Comes to the laboratory
where there's nothing the matter with
the child-the matter is with his dear
mama. In 1905 DIR. Wilmer examined
a boy of IL who talked baby talk-a
bright, alert youngster, to all appear
ance normal. But nobody could I'M
derstand a word he uttered-except
mama she understood it all perfect
ly I-aw-ow-ay' was to her ear
/ want to go out to play as plain as
anything could be. 1t was her ten
der custom to reply likewise. and she
took pride in the thought that she had
never allowed her Willie to associate
with the children ON the block She
had encouraged him to be her baby
and Kept him from growing up too
soon by prattling to him.
Except for his unintelligible Ian
guage, the examination did not re-
veal defect, physical or mental, in
the boy, and DR.. Wilmer was forced
to the conclusion that the trouble lay
in the persistence of an infantile
habit of articulation for which the
mother was solely responsible. Through
sentimentality and over-indulgence,
she had almost ruined his chances for
a useful and possibly successful life-J

found an Irish girl ruling over an es-
tate of 175,OO0 acres. She is daugh-
ter of the Earl of Ennislillen, and
her marriage to Lord Delamere was
a romance of the hunting field. Della
mere was thrown from his horse and
the young woman nursed him IN a

and Delamere took his bride to East
Africa. He now owns the largest es-
tate of any individual in that coun-
