Various reports have been current
from time to time that the duke Of

May Divide Stevens County.

Olympia.-Saturday the house COM
mittee on counties and county bound
aries held two protracted sessions
and decided to report out the bill for
setting off Pend Oreille county from
Stevens, with the difference that in
stead of being teamed" with Spokane
county in a judicial district the lineup
will be with "old' Stevens county, an
arrangement that will be accepted by
the petitioners.
The Methow county division will not
fare so we'll, as fighting delegation
appeared before the committee from
Okanogan county, headed by T. S.
("Lord") Blythe, large owner of If
rigated lands in the Methow valley
with T. S. Elliott of Brewster and
Representative Faulkner as good sec
onds in the opposition to the proposed
division. The principal reasons ad
vanced are the large debt of Okanogan
and the lack of assessable values in
the new territory.

FARMERS UNION ASKS LAW.
Ranchers Request That Threshermen
Register Number of Bushels With
County Clerk.

Members of the farmers union hope
to see the legislature make law which
will compel every owner or manager of
a threshing machine to register with the
county clerk of the county in which he
operates the number of bushels
threshed.
Without this the number of bushels
produced is a matter of guesswork, the
farmers say, and they think it impor-
tant that the actual grain output of
the northwest should be known.
The farmers wish to make this a tri-
state affair and urge the passage of the
law by the Idaho and Oregon legisla
lures as well as by that of Washington,
The matter will be taken up for dis
cussion at the big tr1-state farmers
meeting at Walla Walla next month

VATICAN CLASHES
WITH GERMANY
Theology Professors Required to Take
Oath Disavowing Modernism.

Berlin, Jan. 30.-Widespread interest
has been aroused by a letter from the
pope to Cardinal Fisher, archbishop of
Cologne, relative to the oath disavow-
ing modernism which is now required
of the theology professors by the
Vatican.
This ruling has already resulted in
the withdrawal of several members of
the theological faculty at the Univer-
sity of Munich, and has called forth
sharp controversy.
After declaring that the bishops
should not permit foresight and eau
ton to develop into faintheartedness
in connection with the driving of
clergy from office when they refuse
no surprise that those who fear for
their own positions are striving
against the edict, even perhaps calling
upon the state to prevent its being car
ried out, the pope proceeds.
Gin fulfllment of duty so far as
God s praise is directly concerned the
struggle should not be summed. On
the contrary it should be courageously
entered upon"
The letter sets forth that professors
of theology in state schools need not
take the oath, except when they are
at the same time occupying the pas
toral office, but it regards as coward
ly Indifference the action of state
teachers who make use of the permits
sion of Rome not to take the oath be-
cause of those who, though of the
Catholic church, declare it to be VIC
lation of human intelligence and q
hindrance to progress of science.
A recommendation follows that
temptations for other reason should
not be permitted. Newspapers of al
shades of opinion foresee government
action. The Kreuz Zeitung says
"There can be no doubt of the pope's
intention to enter into conflict will
the Prussian government, the conse
quences of which can not at presen
be foreseen.
The Kolnische Zeitung says: cit i
not too late to reply to this high
handed policy, thus far and no far
ther.
The Leipzeiger Neuste Nachrichtel
says: 1.-THE letter shows that the Vat
lean intends to proceed in the modern
ist movement without consideration o
the rights of the state.''
