emphatically any personal so-called
devil or satan.
All the evil there Is, all the devil
there is, is-but the human false sense
Of things, expressed through the be-
lief Of evil as reality and Is no part
of God or His perfect creation. For
one to arbitrarily select passages from
the scripture and then state that these
apply to or condemn Christian
Science is to take position that is
untenable and absolutely unwarranted
by fair logic. It is possible to- take
scriptural quotations away from their
context and prevent them to seemingly
any purpose.
There are certain fundamental teach
ngs of scripture which Christian
Science emphasizes and the practice
Of these has resulted in inestimable
blessings to humanity. Jesus said, "By
their fruits We shall know them" It
is on the basis OF accomplished re-
suits in the healing Of sickness and sin
amoug the people that Christian
Scientists have their right to a fair and
impartial Judgment. On this basis of
practical results there can be but one
conviction, namely, that Christian
Science as a religious teaching and as
therapeutics agency, is OF greater
value to humanity than any teaching
since the time of Jesus of Nazameth.

Editor, the Courier.

Editor, the Courier.
Dear Sir: There is remarkable
and oft times deplorable tendency
upon the part of some individuals to
rush into print" and endeavor to
elucidate subjects concerning which
they have very little, If any, definite in
formation.
This is the case in the instance of
f. o. Anderson, who in recent issue
Of the Courier makes certain state
ments with reference to Christian
Science, and DR.. Fluno's recent lecture
on that subject which are, to say the
least, extremely misleading. The
abstract statement that Christian
Science opposes the Bible by denying
the reality of matter" is one impos-
sible of proof. The denial Of matter"
as reality does not constitute opposi-
ton to the teachings of scripture,
neither does the denial Of matter in
clude the denial of the perfect spiritual
creation, which Christian Scientists
understand to be the real End eternal.
Many natural scientists define mat
ter as simply "the externalized mani
festation Of human thought As Mr..
Huxley writes, after all, what do we
know Of this terrible matter, except
as the name for the unknown hypo-
thetical cause Of states of our own
consciousness" Christian Science does
not teach, 1--WE can think our disease
away by thinking our body away" but
with St. Paul it teaches that the neces-
sity is, THAT We put off the old man
with his deeds and put on the new man
- So, to-, p}<vb
eousness and true holiness" And again
lit is stated, Flesh and blood cannot
inherit the kingdom Of God" It is
certainly very plain that the Bible
teaches the possibility Of overcoming
the discords and diseases Of the desh
through holy uplifting thought" "Be
| We therefore transformed by the renew.
ing of your minds
Jesus and His disciples preached and
practiced this healing and saving
ministry, which is therefore funda.
mental Christianity. For any one to
attempt from scriptual standpoint to
condemn those who are endeavorine
earnestly, intelligently and consistently
to follow the precepts and example Of
our Master Is inconsistent and in
excusable.
1t is plainly taught in Christian
Science that to the human sense OF
things, and to that sense only, sin,
sickness and death are real, while to O
diviner sense OF things, or the sense
entertained by Christ Jesus. they be.
come unreal in the scientific appre.
hension of what reality includes. The
best way to overcome sickness, sin and
death is clearly pointed out in
scripture, and this overcoming includes
their complete destruction. No one
can overcome sin and sickness simply
by believing there is none" but by
knowing what is real and true in the
way established by Christ Jesus.
The statement that, christian
Science is pantheism because it denies
the personality of God" is incorrect in
premise and conclusion. In the first

want the tAriff high enough to protect
American labor. Theodore Roosevelt
in his st. Louis speech Tuesday SAID
that the republican party Is united on
the tariff, and following the leadership
Of President Taft, the ex-rresident ap-
proved of the non-partisan tarin com
mission to investigate and arrive at
the right figure, which will be the diff
ference between the cost Of production
here and abroad. It will not vote for a
reduction Of the tariff affecting Iowa
people, when the rates affecting the
New England states are left alone.
The last congress took the tariff OH
hides, and with others voted against
this measure because believe the
Iowa farmer who goes into his field
rain or shine and works increasingly
should be favored. The next repub-
+ lican congress Will restore a tariff on
hides"
At this juncture, Mr.. Kendall told OF
the enactments of the last congress,
emphasizing the great amount Of good
legislation that was written on the
statute books. He then referred to
the amendment to the rules Of the
house depriving the speaker OF ex.
cessive authority previously ex-
ercised by him, and making the
sitting of bills in committee impos-
sible in the future. In this connection
he told of introducing bill providing
for a pension of 81 per day for all OLD
soldiers, and predicted that at the
next sitting OF the congress this meas
ure would be made law. He also
stated that the next congress would
further alter the rules Of the house
so that all members of committees
would be elective and not appointed
by the speaker, and declared that the
speaker would not be on any commit
tees.
For All the Ticket.
In conclusion, Mr.. Kendall read the
statement Of Governor Carroll IN
which the standard bearer OF the re-
publican party declared that he was
going into every district In the state
to work for the election Of the entire
republican ticket. He said that the
rank and file of the party should
realize that this year the party has
nut into the field a number of candi-
dates that stand for the highest 1deals
in politics and they are men VINO are
worthy Of the support of the voters OF
the state. Mr.. Kendalls very splendid
talk was brought to close with
word about the Wapello county ucKet,
which he declared to be composed or
clean, reputable men. thoroughly cap
able of handling the duties OF the
various offices to the entire satisfac-
ton or all the people
G. w Whitmore, republican candl
date for the senate, was called upon by
the audience for few remarks, and
