No! There are hundreds of people
who do none of the offenses referred
to above and are appraised morally
good, and Yet they are not convert
ed. The great mass of our noun
tain people believe that conversion
consists in an outwardly righteous
life, reform of the evils of the
body and a general change in char
acter. Breaking away from sin is to
them being born again. But that is
the greatest mistake of modern
time, an error which holds millions
in its destructive clutches.
The new birth or conversion con-
sists in the bestowal of faith. A per-
son is converted, when faith in
Christ Jesus is wrought in his
heart. When the iailer at the pris-
on-house in Pbilippi said to Paul
and Silas: "Sirs, what must do to
be saved?" these apostles answered:
believe on the Lord Jesus Christ,
and thou shalt be saved!' This the
jailer did, and that moment he was
converted. When the apostle Philip
met man of Ethiopia on the high
way he exclaimed to the traveller
the suffering of Jews for the sins of
all men. The Ethiopian made a pro-
fession saying: II believe that Je-
sus Christ is the Son of God!" When
faith came to his heart he was born
again. Who then is converted and

FAITH IN CHRIST.
The New Birth and Faith.

When is a person converted?
When he stops drinking liquor
When he makes up his mind to do
better? When he promises to live
more godly? When he stops cursing
and gambling? When he leaves I'M

life? When he goes to church? No!

become a partaker of heaven! Let
the scripture answer: HE that be-
lieveth on the Son hath everlasting
life. John 1886. whatsoever be-
lieveth on Him (Jesus) shall not
perish but have everlasting life
John 1915. "Wkosoever believeth
that Jesus is the Christ is born of
Cod" l John 81. Since the re-
generation of man consists in faith,
we anxiously ask: what is faith in
Christ, and how may one get this
faith?
Faith Is knowledge.
Paul asks: "How shall they be-
lieve in Him (Christ) of whom they
have not heard?" Rom. 1914. 70
believe in Christ without knowing
of Him is impossible. Therefore it
is necessary to have Sunday Schools
and sermons in which the story OF
Christ is told. For the same reason
we must send missionaries to the
heather. To believe is to know!
Hence the Bible says: Faith COM
eth by hearing" and calls faith "the
knowledge of Christ jesus, the
knowledge of salvation. " Christ in
his prayer to the heavenly Fail er
describes faith as knowledge: ''This
is life eternal that they (the people,
may know Thee the only true God
and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast
sent" We must first know, who
Jesus is and what he has done for
us to save us. We must know that
His suffering on the cross was for
us. (Rom. 1917; Phil.3:8-9; Luke

COREY ASKS WHY
CONTINUED from page ID


Why this decrepancy?
On the other hand, for the sake OF
argument, I accept the quotation OF
$1.OS as being the correct price at
Portland, and deduct the freight rate
per bushel, Pendleton to Portland,
III cents, do we not get a price OF 81
cents that the farmer at Pendleton
should receive instead of the SO cents
offered? And price of 92 cents at
Baker instead of SS cents offered?
Does not the Portland quotation OF
s1.OS on No. White Club wheat and
Liverpool $1.31, allow for the stated
five cents bushel deduct on Club and
Forty-fold wheat at Portland, due to
alleged inferiority of Oregon grain, as
stated in your editorial?
Another matter that the grain grow
er would like to have explained Is
reason for Seattle quotations on ike
grades of grain being invariably high
er than Portland prices, notwithstand-
ing the fact that we have the lower
down river haul rates to Portland.
In your editorial of December End.
1919, you stated-"The people OF the
interior have as much interest in the
matter as those of Portland. The
excessive rates which they now pay
through having the water grade rates
raised to parity with those OF the
mountain roads reduced their profits
by the amount of the excess. Iho
price of the farmers wheat is fixed at
liverpool, or 1t will be again when the
Government no longer guarantees the
price, and he receives that price less
freight"
In the light Of current quotations,
therefore, will you kindly explain to
the interior farmer the Portland-Seat-
tie quotations in their relation to the
Liverpool market as fixing the price
of this product at Pendleton and Ba-
ker, for example.
Are not the principal differences In
our calculations apparently caused by
the fact that you have used the pro
portional Chicago to Baltimore insteAd
Of the local rate used BY me, ma
which I insist is the correct ratl 70
use wheA computing Portland ana
Chicago prices on wheatY
In the example quoted by you IN
which the Portland Dealer broke just
even on his sale at Liverpool and re-
ceived net $1.09. the quotation price
on soft, white wheat on the date, dld
the farmer receive for that wheat the
Portland rate, $1.09. less the rail haul
charge or did the farmer receive sew
eral cents Tess than that amount as
was being offered at Pendleton. and
other interior points on the 18th in
slant?
True, your figures only amount to
some four to eight cents per bushel
but on the annual one hundred-nil-
lion -bushel crop moving through Port
land it would total four to eight mil
mions of dollars, which would help
some toward paying the farmers an
nual taxes
still maintain that Portland enjoys
an advantage over Chicago in rates
on grain to Liverpool as follows:
Chicago to Liverpool 31Ac per
bushel fincluding Insurance and COM
mission.)
Portland to Liverpool fyour figures)

mission.)
Difference 13c, per bushel. the DIS

counted for.
