Peoples Church
Sets Forth Aims
(W. N. D. MacCullough.)

The Christian ideas and concep-
tions must claim citizenship in the
universal kingdom of truth.
If any of these ideas are spurious
coins in the general circulation of the
worlds religious market, the sooner
we know it the better. Therefore
we have surveyed the line of Chris
tian defenses in view of the present
need. We have dwelt with philo-
sophical and historical and practical
lines of proof and urge no hard and
fast distinctions between denomina-
tions, for we are chiefly concerned
with Christian evidences.
The judicial attitude of mind in
the church today does not mean a
disinterested attitude. No man ever
Investigated anything without pre-
disposition in favor of something
This is we'll. Truth cannot be found
otherwise.
A being without predisposition
might indeed exist in the form of a
petrified man, but not as flesh and

AShlander is
Hurt at TOI0

Central Point Herald: ]. A.
Calfee, an aged resident of Ashland,
was brought to this city from Tolo
on Tuesday evening, in a critical con-
a;.iGn from the effects of an accident
at the former place. Mr, Calfee had
driven a fishing party to Ray Gold,
and as the wagon crossed the rail
road tracks at that point was thrown
from his seat by the jar, alishting
on his head and neck. Unable to
walk, and with every movement ac-
companied by intense pain, he was
conveyed to the Kelsey Hospital in
this city on the evening motor, where
he has since remained. 1t is thought
that he sustained slight dislocation
of the neck, but prompt and careful
attention eliminated this, and his
present chances for recovery are con-
sidered excellent. His daughter, Mrs.
Burnett, of Ashland, was in attend
ance the latter part of the week.

ing few now who chance to hear of
Christ in this the only day of saliva
tion, and that He will consign all
the rest, the vast majority of His

Gently, however, all Christian people

deeper appreciation of the fact that

The Judgment Days.
Pastor Sexton also pointed out two
judgment days, corresponding to the
two days of salvation, arguing that if
there are two distinct periods of sal
vation, there must of necessity be two
separate days OF judgment He
showed from the Scriptures that is
1.-The saints shall judge the world"
{ Cor. 6:2), then it is evident that
the judgment day of the saints must
precede the day of judgment of the
world. Continuing, he showed that
while the judgment of the saints,
those who are really Christians, is
now in progress and has been for
over 1900 years, the judgment of
the world must wait till the church's
judgment is completed The worlds
judgment day, as the Apostle Peter
shows, is to be 900 years long. See
ii Peter, 3:7, 8. This will be ample
time in which to resurrect all man
kind and give them an opportunity
to learn of Christ and attain unto
eternal life, or reject Him and pass
into eternal life-''the second death"
Two ResulTections.
1t was then pointed out that the
subject of the resurrection is some
times misunderstood that there are,
in fact, two resurrections. Blessed
and holy is he that hath part in the
first resurrection. Rev. 20:6.
"There shall be a resurrection, both
of the just and Of the unjust"
Our Lord referred to these two
resurrections when He said: Mar
vel not at this, for the hour is COM
ing in which all that are in the

Many turned out Wednesday to
hear Pastor E. D. Sexton of London,
England, discuss what lies Beyond
the Grave" Interest ran high
throughout his entire discourse,
which lasted for over an hour. The
lecture covered much of the Scrip
lures from Genesis to Revelation,
and few sermons have been preached
in which the Bible was so freely quot
ed. The speaker was introduced by.
ex-Congressman Reeder. He has de-
|,livered over $4,000 lectures through
out the world and has averaged eight
lectures a week since last Feruary.
The pastor was very strong in his
contention that there is an oppor-
tunity for purgation from sin beyond
the grave. Nor was he without sup
port from the Book of books. In
fact, he said that the Scriptures as
whole supported this thought
Every knee shall bow and every
tongue confess that He is God"
Since this has never yet taken place
with the great majority of mankind
it's fulfillment must be future; be-
yond the grave many knees will bow
which have never bowed before. The
Lord Is that true Light (which light
eth every man that cometh into the
world" the billions not enlightened
on this side of the grave must be
enlightened oh the other side, else
Gods Word is false. II, if l be lift
ed up, will draw all men unto me-"
Surely the Lord has not drawn all
men unto Him on this side of the
grave; it must be beyond the grave
where these words will be fulfilled.
Two Days of Salvation.
Some might object, quoting the
text, Now is the day of salvation,
now is the acceptable time" etc. But
| this verse reads little differently in
the language in which it was first
written. Instead of reading, Now is
the day." as does the English, the
Hebrew reads, Now is day of sal
walton, now is an acceptable time" !"
implying that there is another day
of salvation and another acceptable
time. These blunders in translation,
made several hundred years ago. have
caused many otherwise well-thinking

Portland Experts who have ex-

declaring that little Rex Palmer,
aged six months, who has not worn
a stitch of clothing since birth, is
the most perfect child ever exhibited
before the parents education bureau.
The September Morn" babe was
brought before the bureau by his
mother, Mrs. Alice Palmer, after
neighbors had complained to the po-
lice that she was neglecting him.
According to the mother, the boy
does not wear clothes day or night,
and when the weather is good he
plays on a pallet in the open air and
on rainy days romps about the house.

the removal of some machinery, etc,

The Right Kind of Halloween

The Right Kind of Halloween.
We are glad to note to the fact
that at least some of the celebraters
of Halloween have taken the advice
given by Elder B. c. Tabor in a
recent article published in oyur val
ued paper and have changed the or
der of the day instead of deriving
pleasure by the destruction of prop
erty, which has, been the prevailing
custom of the past
A merry party OF warm friends
and pupils of Prof w. T. Van Scoy
and senior class of the high school
visited his home and presented the
professor and his wife with many
small gifts of love, consisting of use
full articles for the home We found
the professor in his usual cheerful
mood, ready to commend the young
people for their worthy attitude.
Professor Van Scoy is indeed noble
benefactor in our town. He has
given his life work to the advance
ment of our young people and town.
We thank all who have participated
in this form of celebration. We
think Elder Tabor's suggestion is a
good one. We trust that this will
become a universal custom.
We invite you to remember your
good beginning another Halloween.

GOVERNMENT ATTACKS
THE OATMEAL TRUST
Monopoly in Violation of Sherman
Law Charged Against Large
Company.

CHICAGO, June 12.-The Quaker Oats
Company-the so-caled oatmeal trust
controlling so per cent of the oatmeal
products and by-products of the country.
has been attacked by the federal court
in a civil suit filed here, charging a mo-
nopoly in 'derogation of the common
rights of the people of the United States,
and in violation of the Sherman law.
While the government does not ask for
dissolution of the Quaker Oats Com
pany. it petitions the court to decree the
corporation Fin and of itself to be illegal
and to enjoin the company from en-
gaging in interstate commerce in oat+
meal products until competitive condi-
tons existing prior to the combination
are restored.
The petition asks for temporary in
junction to bring about competition. The
name of Myron T. Herrick, American
ambassador to France, is mentioned in
the government bill, not as a defend
ant but as one of the directors and the
organizers in 1891 of the American Cereal
Company, which is declared to have been
formed with the design of restraining
and monopolZing the oatmeal trade.
The Quaker Oats Company, the Great
Western Cereal Company and a number
of individuals are named as defendants.
