The people of Prosser have sue
ceeded in pledging the commission
ers not to build court house in
Prosser during their terms of Of
flee. This means that the county
seat issue will continue to be the
same prickly thorn it ever has
been; it means that embers of in
tercommunity mistrust, strife and
discord will continue to shoulder
only to burst again into flame four
years hence; it means that Prosser
will doubtless again come forward
with frank admissions of failure
to support meritorious enterprises
and Kennewick will be guilty of
the same offenses; it means that
candidates for public office will
be fit material for political barter
and trade, just as candidates to-
day are being traded and bartered
for county seat votes.
For some time citizens of Pros

munities. The Courier Reporter is
disposed to accept these protesta-
tons at their full face value. But
why the plea? Why the lack of
cooperation? The answer is the
county seat question. 1t is the
thing that stands in the way Of
cooperation-the thing that has
made the county sick. And its i'll
ness has long since reached the
chronic stage nor can it ever be
cured by treating symptoms and
ignoring causes. The county can
never be cured of what ails it by
applying soothing salve to symp-
tomato eruptions or smothering
pack to shooting pains.
There is no use to waste words,
and time, and energy in preaching
the gospel Of cooperation until we
are ready to. stand square-footed
upon the only foundation upon
which spirit of countrywide CO.
operation can be built--a compro-
mise settlement of the county seat
question and the only possible COM
promise is to move it to Benton
City. The Courier-Reporter
stands upon that foundation.

If the people accept a republican regime" it adds, we will not accept without hesitation, but if they decide to maintain the regime of constitu- tional genearchy, 1t will be the duty of the republican advocates to retire definitely from political life.
 The other royalist organs also defy the Nenizelists to go openly before the people as sponsors of a republic believing they would meet with an unprecedented electoral disaster.
 The kathimerini accuses the origi- nators of the republic idea of being counter revolutionaries pointing out that the leaders of the movement which resulted in the overthrow of King Constantine decided to main tain the monarchistic regime.

sound ~corruptabie kings of earth.
That condition points to this very
day when doubt and fear are taking
their toll in suicides, murders, misery
and failures, therefore. creating a
veritable state Of hell here on earth.
Gar Nicholas, creator of fear and
inferiority among his subjects. sowed
the seed of Russia's present day con-
dition and what is it but a hellish
one? Europe in general was melted TO
fear and distress by Kaiser Wilhelm
and under the covering of every
breast, under the roof oe every home,
there is a s.nouldering fire thst needs
only the iightest breeze Of political
agitation to throw the world back into
another fiery conflict.
"All this comes from the perpetual
ton in the nation, in the home and in
the individual: of excitement. fear and
doubt. If these things then be an
earthly state of hell, what will that
place be to which the nondoers and un-
believers must be committed? The new
1sns' say there is no such place and
the newisms' also disregard regenera-
ton as well as conviction. repentance,
confession and conversion. They are
inviting men to go to heaven by fanci-
full methods and any other than
Christ's way of the cross. which is the
only way.
Jesus the Only Savior
Now then, having freely used the
lancet. We must apply the balm and
bandage. Christianity never did need
a masked enforcement nor helpmate.
Law and justice have permitted hollow
mockery in her p%retentious disguise to
come in the role of a helpmate and In
an unconstitutional as well as an un-
christian way dictate the ways of
church and state. This thing cannot
exist. according to the SCRIPTURES; be
not deceived, God is not Knocked. for
whatsoever n mar soweth that shall
he also reap With emphasis on this
verse of scripture, bringing men to
conviction of their sin and warning
them to flee from the wrath to come.
is the role of every Christian in the
program of salvation. That Jesus is
the only savior. the only way to escape
hell, the only door of which we enter
the fold should be and is thetesti-
mony of the Christian. This same
Christ lifted upon the cross to die for
the sins Of the world. His awful death
and then His resurrection and His
perpetual dwelling among us as the
comforter is truth enough to break
the power Of all sin.
"As Paul told Timothy so must we
stick to the gospel. Stay to the scrip
lures. Men will not hear today be-
cause their ears itch and want to be
tickled. Healthful teaching is distaste-
full. The desire of the multitude is
to have teachers who will reflect their
own opinions and prejudices, who will
not go against the grain or rub them
the wrong way who will flatter the mob
which calls itself the people; and keep
conviction well in the background. Only
Jesus saves"
