sentative Martin, Democrat, of Colo

BISHOP KEANE UPHOLDS
WRITINGS OF APOSTLES
Noted PreIate of Catholic Church
Declares New Testament of
Individual Inspiration

IT do not want to ridicule any one,
but we are face to face with a vital
problem. The New Testament is a cre-
alton of the church by a few of its
best members-all of them preached, all
went into the ministry with enthusi-
asm; they were the living church,
and incidentally in leisure wrote out
this, that and the other
These were the expressions of Rt.
Rev. Bishop John J. Keane in his lee
ture last night on 1.-THE Church and the
Bible" in a course of lectures which he
is giving under the auspices of the
knights Of Columbus in the Mason OPP
era house.
Bishop Keane defined the position of
the Catholic church regarding the di-
vinity of the Bible.
Bible" said the bishop. "One, the Cath
olic theory, and the other-and L mean
no offense when 1 say 1.-THE Protest
ant. We differ in other ways, but that
is incidental, while we differ on this
and this is fundamental. The Catholic
theory is that Jesus Christ established
a church, a real organism, not mere
organization, which was to continue
through all time.
"The other theory Is that God speaks,
not through the church, but to the sim
gle individual, that the New Testa-
ment consists of individual inspiration.
We believe 1t was not the person but
the office instituted. AS the father has
sent me, so I send you.' The church OF
apostolic days was one with preten-
sions of universally. We have sacra-
ments and hierarchy with life inde-
structible.
1.-The claim looks strange. Our Lord
never wrote a line and never gave a
command that a line be written. The
apostles wrote little, but all preached.
The church labored fifty years before 1t
was written. 1t was written by the
church after perfect organization, and
is the product of the Christian church,
written incidentally, casually, with no
set purpose to contain a complete rec
ord of what our Lord taught.
"I don't want to minimize the value
of the New Testament. How could |,
who believe in the church which Great
ed it and preserved it? The New Tes-
lament was never intended to be rule
of faith or a standard. The books were
written incidentally, with no attempt
at complementing one another. 1t was
never written with the purpose of MAX
ing it into one.
"You who are not of our faith hear
the little child say, 'God bless our
holy Mother church. You never use
such speech. We speak of Jesus Christ
as an only mediator standing between
US and God, not isolated from the in
carnation, but living as the head of the
church, and we come to him through
her. This Is our holy mother church"
This evening Bishop Keane will speak
on "The Pope: His Office and Prerog-
atives."
The closing of the series will be given
Sunday, evening at o'clock in the Ma
son opera house Bishop Keane will

OVERLAND TRAINS MAY
CROSS IMPERIAL VALLE\
Opening of Border Custom House
Indicates S. P. Will Use
New Route

Ell ICENTRO, April 15,-The new Gus
tom house of the Mexican government
at Los Algodones, just over the inter
national boundary line on the inter-
California railroad, about seven miles
down the Colorado river from Yuma,
was opened yesterday for business
1t is believed the opening of this GUS
tom house and the establishment of a
corps of officials means that at an
early date at least one Southern Pacific
overland train will be operated from
Yuma by way of the Inter-California
railroad and through Imperial valley,
instead of over the old route skirting
the sand hills along the extreme east
erly part of this basin. Such change
would be of much benefit in advertising
the resources of the valley to thousands
of passengers carried by the overland
trains
Senior Francisco Barron, Mexican
consul at Yuma, has charge of the ee'
tails of the opening of the new station
for the Mexican government.
The officials to be established at Los
Algodones include a collector of Gus
TOMS deputy collector, general official
clerk, three inspectors and servant.

Columbus, o.. Jan. 22,--Evidence
of enforced high prices of breadstun
has been discovered by Prosecutor +.
NJ. stephens, Lorain county and At
torney General Denman advised him
Saturday to bring criminal proceed
ngs at once, pledging the states as
sistance.
Stephens sent In two letters in
which millers threatened TO refuse to
sell certain dealers any more flour un-
less they would maintain the uniform
price fixed.
In one the letter purported to have
been written by the Akron branch of
the Washburn. Crosby company and
had been received by Keep Brothers,
Elyria grocers. Keep Brothers had
been selling Gold Medal Flour for
so ped sack, while other dealers
charged $1.9 They received this
letter:
"In the future we wiz not be able
to furnish you with Gold Medal -four
unles you shall be guided by the spir-
1t of other dealers in Elyria and
charge the same price as other dealers
1t will be great advantage to you to
maintain prices"
The other letter purports to have
been written by the Riverside Milling
company, of Elwria, TO j w. Dahlka,
Oberlin grocer. The tenor OF this let
tier was that the pri-es of -four must
be maintained or supply would be
shut off.
Denman wrote Prosecutor Stephens
that these letters plainly indicate at
tempts to enforce standard prices and
hence are violative of the criminal
sections of the antitrust laws. He
told the prosecutor TO begin criminal
action at once.
