PLANS EXCURSION
TO ELK'S CARNIVAL

Travelling passenger agent Jack o.
Neill is spending the day in the west
end of the county in the interest of
the special train which 1t is proposed
to run to Pendleton the day of the
Elk's circus. The details for the train
will probably be worked out later,
after Mr.. O'Neill has made a partial
investigation.
It Is believed, however, that 1t will

up passengers along the line. The
train will arrive in Pendleton in time
for the big parade in the morning
and will not leave on the return trip
until after the afternoon perform
ance has closed.
Special rates will also probably be
ranted to people coming down from
the east end Of the county but 1t will
not be necessary to run special train
as the present accommodations are
adequate.

Norman Sarkis, addsetter upon the
East Oregonian, was formerly sub
ject of the sultan of Turkey and for
that reason has been an interested
reader of the news telling of the dis
turbances that have resulted in the
overthrow of Abdul Hamid. Mr.. Sar-
kis is a native of Syria which is one
of the states of the Ottoman empire
and is directed by an imperial COVER
nor
Being personally a man of progress
sive ideas Mr. Sarkis has rejoiced at
the triumph of the-Young Turks and
at the establishment of constitutional
government in his native land. How
ever he is fearful of much bloodshed
before the empire finally settles down
TO order under the new regime.
According to this former subject of
the sultan the mass of the people in
Asia Minor sympathize with Abdul
Hamid rather than with the Young
Turk movement. The most of the
people are ignorant. prejudiced and
bloodthirsty. So 1t will not be an easy
matter for the new government to re-
store tranquility.
Though a native of Syria. Mr.. Sar-
kis was raised as a Christian as are
many in his native country. However
he says that occidental people have
many misconceptions regarding the
Mohammedan faith. He says that
the Koran does not teach that the
faith should be extended by the sword
and that those who do not believe in
Mohamet should be put to death.
Christians are not regarded as "un-
believers"
But the Mohammedan religion does |
permit polygamy and in fact advises
such. Each man is allowed four wives |
and more if he is able to support
them. The Koran teaches rigid alb |
stenance from liquors. personal hon.
esty and high respect for womanhood. /
All education among Mohammedan 4
children starts with the Koran. Be-
fore a child is taught anything else he
is instructed in the teachings of Mo-
hamet. Consequently the Mohamme-
dan faith is deeply implanted in the
mind of every one born in the faith II
and as a result Mohammedans do not
become proselytes. In the opinion OF
Mr.. Sarkis the efforts of Christian
to convert Mohammedans
Is entirely futile and always will be
so. Not only is the Mohammedan
faith q ttra ptiva m itS followers hut ono
who deserts it for the Christian re-
igion would endanger his life in do
ng so.
Though well educated in the schools
of Syria Mr.. Sarkis declares that he
learned but little of the history of that
land until he came to America and
read the English world histories.
