The Social Message Of the Hebrew Prophets

The so-called Christian powers
of the world might we'll consider
the possibility that Jesus meant
his kingdom to be one without
police and soldiery, a kingdom
resting on the one maxim of love
and gentleness, and not on a
myriad maxims of force and
violence. That Jesus, following
the high example of the earlier
masters in Israel. should have
sought to belittle riches. power,
rule. in themselves, is a rightful
inference from His utterance.
But that this Hebrew Of the He
Drews wished to move men 70
rest content under the injustice
and oppression of the world in
the hope of compromising abun-
dance and bliss in the world to
come is borne out neither by
the letter nor the spirit of his
teachings. And this would sig
nifty that Jesus was indifferent
to the fate of the poor and I'M
concerned with the problem of
poverty and the suffering which
it entailed, that he cared not
what bells of wrong and oppres-
sion men perforce endured in
this world, as long as they de-

corporation lawyers is on the constitu.
tionality of a measure. II they can
have it knocked out on that ground
their battle is won almost before it
starts. 1t was in this way that the
income tax was killed. and 1t is in
this way that the postal savings bank
is seriously endangered. The friends
Of this measure should not delude
themselves into the belief that the con-
stitutional objections to It are trifing
matters. In the opinions Of great law
yers they are most serious. Senator
Root introduced his amendment to per-
NIT the use Of postal savings deposits
for the purchase Of government bonds
for the express purpose Of giving the
bill constitutional leg to stand on.
With that provision adopted. the con-
stitutionality Of the measure could be
defended under the clause covering the
right of the government to borrow
money. At present the only constitu-
tional provision that can be cited In
its behalf is the general welfare
clause, and this is so vague and elias
tic that a court could give it wide
variety Of interpretations. President
Taft In his New York speech agreed
with Senator Root that this amend
ment would make the bill constitu-
tional.
In making a prediction Of what con-
gress win or will not do here Is fact
that may throw some light on the sit
uation: Practically one-half of the SEES
sion is gone, and not one bill embody-
ing any Of the presidents main poll
cies has passed either house. There
are four of these main policies, ex-
elusive Of federal incorporation and
ship subsidies, both Of which Taft
has said that he will not press at this
session. These four are postal saw
ings banks, conservation. interstate
commerce and regulation Of fnjunc-
lions. In some cases several bills are
comprised under one head, notably In
the matter Of conservation. With half
of the session over, the net progress
| to date, outside Of committee work. is
| that the postal savings bank bill is
| still being debated in the senate and
after passing that body will have to
| run the gantlet Of the house. The
other measures are In a still more
backward state. Query: If it requires
two and a half months to get one bill
part way through one house, how long
will be needed to put one dozen bills,
| more or less. through both houses?

MANY LABORERS WANTED

When A. J. Earring, president of
Chicago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul Rail-
way company, and Robert E.. Stra-
horn, head of the North Coast road,
declared in signed statements three
weeks ago that if the city council
did not rescind its previous action
and grant franchises without the ter
minal rate and common user clauses
they would abandon all construction
work in and near Spokane, it was
believed by many that the threats
would be carried out and several
thousand men discharged; but these
fears have proved groundless, as
there is greater activity than ever
Employment agencies in Spokane
have orders for more men than they
can supply and as a result of the
shortage of labor the wage scale has
been advanced from 1925 to $3.50
a day, while tracklayers are paid
from $3.50 to $2.75, and many of

Sc to IS day doing grading work
by contract. 1t is estimated that
more than 1000 men are employed
on the two roads near this city and
1000 more could find work in the
various camps, now running day and
night under instructions from head
quarters.
Employment agents in Spokane
have orders from the Hartman line
for 1000 men in the Deschutes coun-
try in Oregon, while contractors on
the Northern Pacific road in east
ern Washington are clamoring for
tracklayers. One contractor on the
North Coast has 1000 men at work
and wants from 500 to 900 more
Day and night shifts are being en-
ployed to hasten the work west of
here.
The lines in the fight for terminal
rates have been drawn tightly, the
two factions being headed by A. w.
Doland, president of the Spokane
Merchants association, in favor of
free franchises, and B. L. Gordon, a
local wholesale grocer, as chairman
OF the Peoples Terminal Rate COM
-mittee. The council Is standing
pat" for terminal rates and there is
every indication that the question Of
franchises will be submitted to a vote
of the people.
Farm labor is scarce in Washing
ton, Oregon, Idaho and Montana.
where large areas will go into wheat
and other grains, root crops and
fruit this spring than ever before.
The land is in excellent condition for
seeding and work is in progress in
many districts. The scarcity of la
Dor, the greatest problem that con-
fronts the ranchers and orchardists
in the irrigated and dry-farming dis
tricts, is accounted for In way by
the great expansion in industrial
lines and railroad building, and
though more than 10000 settlers
came into the country last year the
situation has not been relieved. In
fact, farmers say it is more acute to-
day than during any similar period
in the history of the northwest, as
many of the newcomers have set
tied on land, thus increasing the de-
mand for labor. Employment agen-
cies in Spokane and other cities in
the northwest are literally swamped
with orders for help at wages rang
ing from $3.50 to $2.75 a day, and
in instances they are offering ~

reckoning and then what of the fell
low who has bought his land largely
on time at an inflated price, with in
terest and taxes to pay on an inflated
valuation? The initiation of price
will not initiate the productive ca
pacity of his farm a single pound or
pennys worth.
The value of land should be based
upon it's producing capacity. If it
will only pay interest upon 800
per acre that is all it is worth Some
land may pay good interest upon an
investment of one or two thousand
dollars an acre in properly handled
orchard but it won't pay interest
raising pigs, sheep or cows on any
such valuation, but at the same time
there is plenty of land even in this
great fruit country that will bring
better returns farmed to some sort
of livestock than to orchard. 1t is
not every acre of this country that is
adapted to fruit. If 1t was we would
eventually have an overproduction,
and there would be little in the busi-
ness for any one. AS it is thousands
of acres are being set out by imprac-
tical men on land not adapted to
fruit that will never pay a profit and
will eventually be dug up after years
Of expense and waiting. Plenty Of
this land If devoted to producing
wool, meat or milk would bring an
income from the start and would
help regulate the cost of living.
