send him again if he would
serve.
That there has been a system
attic and industrious attempt to
inject the doctrinal religious
phase into this campaign, there
can be no doubt. That it was
done by persons favorable to the
candidacy of Senator McCreary
is difficult of proof. but is easy
of surmise. 1t has been talked
in this county by McCreary sup
porters. 1t was attempted to
be injected into the Methodist
conference at Russellville last
fall. Mr.. Johnson says in his
card of withdrawal that it has
been insidiously cir C u a t e d
throughout the state.
The editor of the Messenger is
not a Catholic. Heis a Metho-
dist, as his people were before
him. But he decries any at
tempt to inject a religious phase
into a political campaign.
The men who did it were not
actuated either by religious or
political motives, except such as
might insue to private ends.
The men behind it are as repre-
hensible as the present Repubh-
can Senator Bradley, who joined
the A. p. A. IS in Louisville and
told political friends in Paducah
that he expected to die in the
arms of the Mother church. "
If Senator McCreary is not re-
sponsible for this altogether un-
wise thrusting of this matter in
to the Democratic campaign,
then he is letting other people
do his managing for him. He
must call them off. or get off
himself. The Democratic party
is the party of freedom of
thought and opinion, and a few
members of a political kitchen
cabinet ought not to violate this
prin ciple. Bowling Green Mes

Wanted Church Craftsmanship

In the broad. strategic ideal it is
evident that nothing less than
full intercommunion between all
Christian churches, and nothing
short of economic and efficient
administrative organization ca n
meet the religious demand of
modern civilization. For ours is
not merely the age Of democracy
it is the dawn of a new era of
social cooperation. If individ-
ualism is not to be swamped in
some devasting flood of socialism,
it will be because the individual
shall be saved in a Christian fell
lowship and co-working. The

McCreary Should Get Off.

The Bowling Green Messen-
ger has never declared its choice
for governor. In fact, the Mes
senger dislikes UNNECESSARILY to
be compelled to take stand for
or against a candidate within
the party before the party auth
critics have spoken.
In the exercises of what we
considered a public duty, we
have heretofore given some rea-
sons why we thought ex-senator
McCreary should not be made
the Democratic standard bearer,
and why, even if made the gov
ernor of Kentucky. it would not
rebound to the glory or the cred
it of the commonwealth. In
saying this. we have not been
actuated by private or mercen-
AIRY motives. The election of
one man over another will not
affect the Messenger ard its
editor any more than it will af-
feet any other Kentuckian.
The recent withdrawal of Hon.
Ben johnson from the race for
Democratic nomination for gov
ernor more than ever justifies
our position and makes it all the
more obligatory upon the Demo
Gratis of Kentucky to retire
Senator McCreary from the race,
and let us agree upon some man
who can win, and after winning
occupy the governors chair with
credit to himself and honor to
the commonwealth.
Among the rank and file of
the Democracy of Kentucky
there is no fanatical religious
prejudice. Washington county,
for instance. where more than a
majority of the Democratic
voters are members of the
Catholic church. has not sent a

ALL SAVED GROIN LINER.
Cabin Passengers Given Precedence
to Steerage Folk.

Lone Hill, L. l., Life Saving Sta
tion-The 1,720 cabin and steerage
passengers on the stranded North Ger
man Lloyd liner Princess Irene were
transferred to the deck of the Prinz
Friedrich Wilhelm in five hours and
ten minutes Saturday afternoon and
one hour after nightfall they were on
their way to New York. The feat is
unparalleled in the history of marine
disasters.
Not life was lost, not a case of
panic was reported. The first pas
senger off was woman and the sec
ond baby. The cabin passengers,
masters of the situation and the lang
uage, generously gave precedence to
the more timorous steerage pas
sengers.
AS for the liner on the bar, night
fall showed her hard and fast in the
grip of the sands, and Captain God
dard, of the Lone Hill Life Saving
station, estimates she will be held
prisoner at least a week, perhaps a
fortnight.
In the SO hours since she struck she
has been favored by comparatively
light weather, but a stiff blow from
the southwest might open her plates,
crush in her bulkheads and wrench
apart her stout steel frame.

FIRE DANGER TOLD,
State Official Takes First Step to
Save Oregon Timber.

Salem - Inaugurating the fight
against forest fires in Oregon the
state forester issued has first ultima
tum which he hopes will be reprinted
in every newspaper in the state. B.
w. Elliott is assisting the state for
ester until deputy is selected.
Offices were opened at the capitol
and the first move taken was toward
warning the people against the danger
of starting forest fires.
In his letter to the people of Oregon
the forester says:
Forest fires, one of the greatest
sources of destruction to the most val
liable resources of the state, will soon
be restricted and their terrors largely
reduced if the people will cooperate
with the state forester in the admins
tration of the new forestry law enact
ed by the last legislature, which will
be ready for distribution in pamphlet
form in the near future.
Zone of the most important provis-
ions of the law is that making closed
season for burning from June to Oc-
tober l, during which period outdoor
fires of all kinds are prohibited except
under most stringent regulations and
the probability of heavy penalties.
sin this connection the state for
ester urges upon everyone the neces-
sity of doing all possible burning be-
fore the close season begins and thus
save the trouble and risk of doing
it by permission in the season Of
greatest danger when fires spread so
easily and rapidly. The state for
ester desires the assistance and CO.
operation of everyone in the protec-
tion of property from forest, grass or
brush fires, and to this end invites
suggestions and information calculat-
ed to assist in any manner in the per-
formance of his most important du-
ties. Copies of the law will be fur
nished promptly to all who desire
them. Requests and communications
should be addressed Fl. A. Elliott,
State Forester, Capitol, Salem, and
will receive prompt and appreclatlVe
attention"
GAS the dry season approaches, tim
Der owners in Oregon are making pre-
parations for more effective work thar
ever before in preventing damage by
forest fres," said G. S. Chapman,
secretary and manager of the Oregon
Fire association.
Zone way in which many owners
are preparing for the danger period is
by burning, during this spell of dry
weather, slashings, fern patches anc
places where fires can easily be start,
ed little later.
Nothing can be more important
than that such work be taken up while
heavy rains can be counted on coming
to extinguish any smoldering logs OF
snags before the dry summer months
arrive. With these places eliminated
and good patrols maintained, the state
should, next summer, make an en-
viable record"

coLLlERY FIRE KILLS FIFTY.
Men Cut off Like Rats In Blind
Tunnel.

Scranton, Pa.-Fifty men Eand boys
are believed to have perished without
a moments warning Saturday in a
mine fire in the Pancoast colliery at
Throop, three miles from here. Some
estimates place the number of dead at
60. Three bodies have been recov-
cred. John Evans, head of the United
States rescue car, died from suffoca-
ton resulting from defective rescue
helmet.
Three men protected by helmets and
oxygen tanks pushed past the point
where the flames were first discovered
at 5 O'Clock in the afternoon and
stumbled over the bodies of two men
and boy, who had evidently fallen
while cropping their way to safety.
A majority of the missing men and
boys are foreigners, but two Ameri-
cans-Foreman Walter Knight and
Fire Boss Alfred Dawe-are thought
to have perished.
The fire started in an engine house
at the opening of slope leading from
the Diamond vein, 750 feet from the
surface. There were 400 men in the
mine, about 60 of them at work in a
"blind" tunnel at the end of the
slope. Escape was completely blocked
by fire, smoke and the generated
gases. The other men, scattered in
other workings, got out.
James Vickers, fire boss, who was
near the engine house when the fire
broke out, gave the alarm, and tried
to get to the tunnel where he knew a
body of men was at work. He could
90 only a short distance before he was
forced to turn back. He was so ex-
hausted that he had to be carried to the
surface. He gave it as his opinion
that no man could live five minutes in
the tunnel.

FRUIT PEST SQUAD STARTS.
Many Important Points to Have Q.
A. c. Stations.


Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
vallis-A general siege against fruit
pests of every description is now be-
ing arranged by the experts of this
college. Within the next week or
two six men will be employed to go to
various sections of the state and take
up this work.
This general fight against the pests
of fruit crops was authorized by the
last legislature at the investigation of
the fruitgrowers of the state. 1t will
be carried on entirely under the di-
rection of the departments of plant
pathology, entomology and horticul-
ture of this institution. Headquarters
will be established in the various fruit
sections of the state. 1t has already
been decided to establish one at Salem,
and others will probably be located
at Roseburg, Portland, Eugene and
possibly Milton. The work, however,
will all be directed from the college.
The details have not been deter
mined upon, but are now being care
fully worked out. The plans will
probably be completed within the next
week or two. Professors Cordley,
Lewis and Jackson, who have general
charge of the work, are confident that
it will result in saving many thou
sands of dollars to the fruit growers.

were rather the product. This state
ment was made at the regular meet

esting manner in which Dr.. Vande-
walker elaborated his theories for dis
cussion, the physicians present did not

ONTARIO SCENTS LINE.
Condemnation Suits Pointed to as
Oregon-Eastern Move.

Ontario That work is to be COM
menced on the extension of the Oregon
Eastern Railroad, known as the Har-
riman line, through the Malheur Can
yon to Central Oregon, is evidenced
by the commencement of condemna-
ton suits against owners of the Cas-
cade wagon road grant, for right of
way through its lands. The cases
will come up in the April term of
court, when it is expected that set
tlement will be made.
Surveys on the south side of the
Snake river from the Oregon Short
Line tracks to Homedale show that
the new track will strike the Short
Line near Arcadia, about seven miles
south of Ontario 1t is believed that
a double track will be laid to the pres
ent line used by the branch road run
ming to Brogan, thus making a double
track from it's connection with the
Short Line to Ontario, which will un-
doubtedly become the division point.
A coal shute is being built at On
tario large enough to hold several cars
of coal. 1t will be operated by hy-

INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE STATE|
STATE CAN'T STOP EXCHANGE
Land Reverts to Government if Irriga-
ton is Not Carried Out.

Salem Having been unable through
state legislation to accomplish the OBJ
ject, Wellington G. Howell & Co.,
during the closing hours of the late
congress, succeeded in having a law
enacted by which this company is per-
mitted to exchange 8,793 acres of
timber land that it had acquired in a
school section at present lying within
national forest reserve for about
$3.50 acres of land that had been re-
served from entry by the United
States government and which was
awarded to a Portland company under
contract with the state of Oregon to
reclaim under the Carey act.
The interests of the Portland com
pany were afterwards purchased by
Wellington G. Howell & Co. The
$3.50 acres that are to be exchanged
for the school lands lie in the Malheur
valley, about 20 miles south and east
of Burns and about 10 miles from
Lake Malheur. The Wellington in
terests acquired the school base, which
they exchanged for the arid lands in
Malheur county, through purchase,
not getting it directly, from the state.
For it they paid from $1.25 to $3.50
an acre. There are various estimates
as to the value of the Malheur valley
tract, though it is the opinion of State
Engineer Lewis that it cannot success
fully be irrigated. 1t was the plan OF
the Portland company to irrigate by
sinking wells, but no work was evel
done by that company.
