Editor Daily Star Mirror:
will you kindly give space for tn,
following:
i On questions of religion it can hardly
be expected that ministers of the so
called orthodox churches will agree witt
the teachings of Christian Science bu
in recent sermon on the value 81
Theosophy, Christian Science and New
Thought a minister of your city has
made the mistake of saying that the
teachings of Berkeley and Kant are
fundamentally similar to Christian Sci
! ence.
| Now Christian Scientists accept with
gratitude the good will of this minister
in preaching what he understands of
the principle of Christian Science, but
in fairness to the public and Mrs Eddy
the discoverer and founder of Christian
Science, the statement quoted should be
corrected
| 1t IS quite certain that a careful study
of the writings of Berkeley and Kant
together with the works of Mary Baker
Eddy will reveal to anyone that there is
almost no similarity between them.
Whatever else Berkeley may have writ
ten, he did write treatise on the heal
ing properties of tar water, and it need
scarcely be said that tar water has moth
ing in common with the teaching of
Christian Science So also it is true
that Kant is of little value in under
standing God as taught in Christian Sci
ence.
There is no record of anyone YER
having been healed of disease or sin by
reading the works of either of the two
philosophers named, while there are
thousands of we'll authenticated cases of
healing of both sin and disease as a re-
suit of reading the Christian Science
textbook - Science and Health, With
Key to the Scriptures Mary Baker
Eddy.
Christian Science is founded wholly on
the basis that Mind, God, is the only
reality, and it is from IN understanding
of this fact that all cases of healing are
performed.
Mrs. Eddy Says, 81 have set forth
Christian Science and its application to
the treatment of disease just as have
discovered them | have demonstrated
through Mind the effects of Truth on
the health, longevity, and morals of men;
and l have found nothing in ancient or
modern systems on which to found my
own, except the teachings and demon
strations of Our great Master and the
lives of prophets and apostles. The
Bible has been my only authority. I have
had no other guide in ''the straight and
narrow way of Truth" (Science and
Health, page 1862
Christian Scientists are glad to see
that the spirit of brotherly love which
makes all the world kin is fast being
realized, and they also believe that at no
distant day the leveling of religious
creeds and sects will come to pass, land |
there shall be one fold, and one shep-
herd" even as Jesus has said

Star Mirror: The following is a
copy of letter have sent to Senator
Borah:
Senator VIM. E. Borah, Washing
ton, D. C.-Dear Sir: am a Republi-
can, but l am going to vote against
you for the following reasons: You
opposed the first draft law and you
were opposed to sending U. S. soldiers
to France, and | think if YOUR
IDEAS had prevailed in that respect
that Germany and her allies would
have won and would now be invading
the United States. You also opposed
national woman's suffrage and paired
against it on the final vote. In my
judgment these are sufficient reasons
why every loyal citizen of Idaho
should vote against you.
Yours truly,
A. S. ANDERSON.

Socialist Plan
After-TIle-wa ar
Preparations Are Already Underway
to Meet the Conditions-WiIl make
Great Demand on Wealth.

The Socialists are preparing for
after the war. They have figured out
that the laboring man produces prac-
5ically all the wealth of the country
and dues not receive the full product
of his labor. They are going to de-
mand the other four-ffths.
This demand of Socialism rests upon
the assumption that there is only one
th.ng of value in the world-physica
strength. 1t gives no consideration to
the brain that conceives project, the
initiative faculty which promotes af-
fairs, or the foresight which creates
opportunity for the laborer. Only in
a very limited sense "all men are born
equal" All men We're not endowed
by Almighty God with the same
amount of brains, the same physical
powers or for the same position in the
world. The Creator, Who made the
material elements of different values
Who created flowers uf varied sweet
ness and birds OF divers rlummage
made men of different molds and
destined for different work in the busy
aWorld. Some were made to command
and others to obey. AL! men have, by
divine right, the same liberties, tho
same protection from society, the in
a!lenab]e right to life, liberty and the
pursuit Of happiness 1t was never
intended by the Almighty that all men
would equally enjoy tho fruits of the
earth. The poor will be With us Away
Some will be poor as tic result of mis-.
fortune or the fault of others. Theii
poverty properly accepted and pa
tiently to-ne will be their ladder to
God. Some will be ponr Ey reason of
personnall Indifference or want of in

Labor
For Home Rule
Sympathy for and Endorsement Of
Irish National Aspirations Voted by
American Federation.

The American Federation of labor,
at it's national convention in St. Paul,
had warm debate on the Irish ques-
tion.
It came when Joesph D. Cannon,
New York, one of the ablest of the
Socialist group, sought to have the
convention go on record as favoring
absolute independence for Ireland.
Cannon made bitter attack on Eng
land. He declared Great Britain has
no more right to ask Ireland to accept
home rule from her than to ask the
United States to do so. and asserted
it to be hypocritical to declare for the
rights of small nations with Ireland
omitted.
Delegate Timothy Healy favored the
Endorsement of immediate home rule,
and charged the militant Sim Feiners
with accepting German bribes.

played an important part in suppress
sion of the Sim Fein plot, began here
today.
The government charged that Dowl-
ing, while in a German prison camp at
Limburg, joined "German-Irish bri-
gade" and tried to induce others to
follow him. He was also charged with
participating in an attempt to land
hostile forces in Ireland.
Sir Archibald Bodkin, the prosecu-
tor, described the German plot in 1914
for the formation of an Irish bri-
gade" from Irish taken prisoners on
the British front.
The prosecutor described the means
used to induce Irishmen to join and in
Particular, the German promises to
them reading:

member of the Irish brigade to the

Sir Archibald read long document
issued by the Germans which said:
"The Irish in America are collect
ing money for this brigade. Join the
new unit and win your independence.
The Irish brigade is to fight solely for
the cause of Ireland with the moral
and material assistance of the German
government.
How Bowling Got to ireland.
The story told by Prosecutor Bodkin
of the arrival of Corporal Dowling in
Ireland follows:
ION April IL, fishermen going out
from harbor on the Clare coast saw
a man waving a handkerchief on an
island half mile from shore. He said
he had been washed ashore from the
torpedoed ship Mississippi during the
night. He paid the fishermen five shil.

" hat America
Is Fighting For
President Wilson on Fourth Of July
Restates the Terms Upon Which
Final Peace Must Rest.

President Wilson reiterated his rep
resentation of American war aims in
a speech at Mt. Vernon on the Fourth
of July. There can be no peace until
these aims are attained he declared.
Here is a restatement of those terms,
which will give all the warning nations
ample food for thoughtful cogitation:
"Q) The destruction of every arbi-
trary power anywhere that can separ-
ately, secretly and of its single choice,
distrub the peace of the world; or if
it cannot be destroyed, at least it's re.
duction Of virtual impotence.
"(2) The settlement of every ques.
tion, whether of territory, of SOW.
ereignty, of economic arrangement, or
of political relationship, upon the
basis of the free acceptance of that
settlement by the people Immediately
concerned, and not upon the basis of
the material interest or advantage of
any other nation or peoples which
may desire a different settlement for
the sake of its own exterior influence
or mastery.
"(3) The consent of all nations to
be governed in their conduct towards
each other by the same principles of
honor and of respect for the common
law of civilized society that govern
the individual citizens of all modern
states in their relations with one an.
other; to the end that all promises and

lings to land him at Ballyaline pier,
where he gave his name as James
O'Brien and described the torpedoing
of the Mississippi with great detail,
stating that the ship came from Bal
timore.
Later in the day his collapsible boat
of undoubted German make was
washed ashore. Bowling had 70
pounds of English money. He said
he had come from the United States
to see Irish friends before joining the
American army.
Prosecutor Bodkin in his address de-
scribed the German method of dealing
with Irish prisoners.
Those who joined the Irish bri-
gade," he said, were allowed dis
tinctive uniforms, special rations and
side arms, and mingled freely with the
German officers and men. Those who
stuck to their oaths of allegiance were
treated shamefully, their rations were
reduced, and every effort was made to
punish them for their conduct. Yet
So was the total number of recruits the
Germans secured after a long cam
paign among the Irish prisoners.
Bowling Hated by Comrades.
"The feeling against Bowling was
very strong among the loyal prisoners,
and on one occasion he was handled
so roughly that German sentries had
to come to his assistance"
The prosecutor declared the whole
story told by Bowling regarding the
circumstances of his landing and the
purpose Of his visit was untrue, as
Bowling later admitted.
HE was brought to London" con.
tinued the prosecutor, "and detained

now try to explain that he came in
