RIGHT OF THE UNBORN
CHILD.

For the past few weeks there
has been controversy over the
action of Marquette University
officials in refusing to sanction the
teaching of certain Of it's medical
instructors that it is right to
sacrifice the unborn child in order
to save the mother. This is an old
question in Church history as
we'll as in the domain Of the civil
law.
The Catholic Church has always
taken the stand that it is wrong
to do evil that good may come Of
it: in other words, the end does
not justify the means. True, the
ethics Of civil law in many places,
including this country, permits
certain operations that are sure to
end in the death of the child as
yet unborn. The reason alleged
is that the mother has a prior
right to life.
Now, sound Christian principles
recognize the taking Of another s
life as justifable only in three
cases: in just war, by capital
punishment, and in self-defense
In the case Of an unborn infant,
whose presence in the mother S
womb seems to endanger the life
Of the mother, there is no place
for the argument of self-defense,
or the question of an unjust
aggressor. The child is precisely
where Nature and the parents
have placed it. AS a living ra-
tional being it has as much right
to life and protection as the moth
err has. In fact, in a way, it has
more, since it is under the natural
protection of the mother who is
bound in every way to safeguard
the life formally committed to her
care. TO murder a baby were a
terrible crime; to slaughter an un-
born infant were a horrible trav-
esty on the law Of God and of
Nature.
If physician kills a child to
save the mother he simply places
utilitarian standards above the
laws of morality. The military
law would order shot a soldier
who would flee to save his own
life and thus leave his comrades
to. perish; the moral law brands
with the mark of Cain the physi
clan who would perform or the
parent who would consent to al
operation that would entail GER
tain death to a tiny human beine
that is placed under the protec
ton Of the mother, and that has {
natural right to life, and tina
moreover has no means of defend
) ing itself.
The laws Of the middle age
had severe penalties for thu
| crime of abortion, some nation
even decreeing death for tn
5 mother who would permit or prac
tice this act. The present con
troversy but shows how far tn
world has wandered from tn
sound Christian principles i
force in the much despised middl
!, ages.

Canada seems to be headed
towards independence. For many
years she has had a tariff against
imports from the mother country.
She coins her own money; insists
on making her own treaties, and
aims at other forms of independ-
cnt action. Now she remembers
the valor of her soldiers and her
10000 dead, and she sends her
own representative to Washing
ton. She has all the elements of
an independent nation and should
be one if she so desires.

Most Reverend Archbishop, Reverend

of worth to the world We ought to
know our end and purpose in the
world, and how to put to profit the
powers we possess.
A society in it's beginning is in
much the same position as a man in
his childhood. Friends and relatives
have the most eXtraVagant hopes OF
his future greatness. Time goes on
the child's mental and physical pow
ers develop, and in proportion as his
personal responsibility increases his
friends enthusiasm decreases A
child is carried in the arms of its
nurse and is not responsible for where
it goes, OF for what it does. A man
moves by his own power, and mus

Phenomenal Yields Expected.

Farmers are welcoming the pres
ent cool weather as it eliminates dan
ger of injury to wheat through hot
winds. Some damage was done by the
hot weather last week but it is said
to be small. Men who are well n
formed say that some phenomenal
yields will be recorded this year es-
pecially on the reservation. There
are fields where so bushels per acre
will be threshed If present prospects
hold out. Good yields are also ex-
pected in the light land sections de-
spite the few days of hot weather.
Wheat is headed out unusually well
and the crop is now almost made. 1t
is predicted today that the crop of the
county as whole will be above nor
NAL and had it not been for the hot
spell a bumper crop would have been
secured.

Use Old Road to Echo

Its a shame that the new highway
between Echo and Pendleton has been
opened for travel says Barney Old
field who has returned home from
Tacoma and on the return used the
now route up from Echo. The road
is gravelied for but a quarter of
mile and over much of the rest of the
road the highway is so dusty and so
filled with chuckholes that travel is
almost impossible. With the highway
opened and the lower end gravelled
many strangers take the road believing
that 1t is In good shape for travel The
hill road should be used instead says
Mr.. Oldfield. West of Echo the high
way Is good to Arlington with the ex-
ception OF a short distance. Mr.. and
Mrs. Oldfield attended the auto races
