Resolutions Of Regret.

The following resolutions were
passed by the First Christian church,
G. w. johnson, secretary, ON the
departure of Elder J. w. Webb
Bro. Webb, it is with deep regret
that the First Christian church of
Salem has learned that you are
about to leave our state. And we
cannot let slip the occasion to avow
our feelings. Compared with the
worlds ages two years is not long
period ; but in the life of church
or a man it is long enough to pro-
duce revolution in things that
make for eternal veal or eternal
woe. Hence, to the church and the
homes it represents, a two years
pastOrate is not light thing. Dur
ing such pastorate you once served
us and it is in our hearts to say
that in all its varied rounds of duty,
its mingled happiness and pain at
the altar and at the hearth, you have
endeared yourself to all its members.
Large is our debt Large will be
your reward. You are about 10 take
up your abode in a state where you
are so we'll known that you will
scarce need any commendation Of
ours; nevertheless the church has
this day by unanimous vote adopt
ed the following:
In as much as Rev. ]. w. Webb
after a three years residence in our
city two Of which he spent as pas
tor Of our church, is about to remove
from our state,
THEREFORE,, belt resolved, that Sa-
lem has had no better citizen or the
church a more .wO rthy pastor.
That nothing but his own convie-
tiOns took him from us.
That we will ever hold dear the |
memory Of himself and his worthy |
family, and that We do hereby affec-
commend them to the love
n God, and 10 the confidence Of all
men. !

Architecture East and West.

The Americans are the quickest people
IN the world to adapt themselves to new
situations. The western people travc,
much, at home and abroad, and they d.
not require a very long experience to know
what is in bad taste. They are as quick
as anybody believe they gave MS the
phrRse--to ''catch on" TO quietness and u
tow tone. Indeed, don't know but they
would boast that If it is a question of sub.
dued style, they can beat the world. The
revolution which has gone an over the
country since the exposition Of 1876 IN
house furnishing and decoration is quite
as apparent at the west as in the east.
The west has not suffered more than
the east from eccentricities Of architecture
In the past twenty years. Violations of
good taste are pretty we'll distributed. but
OF new houses the proportion Of hand
some, solid, good structures Is as large in
the west as In the east, and in the cities |
think the west has the advantage in
variety. 1t must be frankly said that If
the easterner is surprised at the size. cost
and palatial character Of many of their
residences, he is not less surprised BY the
refinement and good taste Of their in
teriors. There are cases Whers money is
too evident where the splendor has been
ordered, but there are plenty Of other
cases where individual taste u apparent,
and love Of harmony and beauty. What
am trying 70 say is that the east under
values the real refinement OF living going
along with the admitted cost and luxury

ELECTRIC FORCE.
The Great Fundamental Force Of the
Universe As Applied to the Sick.

One of the Drs. Darrin, the fam.
Gus Portland physicians, is in the
city with headquarters at the Che
mekete and is preparing to lay siege
to the great enemy of life and death
disease. Their power of re-
storing health to humanity is
acknowledged. Electricity or cleo
tro-magnetism, is the agency thro'
which they work.
Experiments by scientists are con-
stantly and surely proving electric
ity to be the great motor power of
creation. Electricity is the most
powerful chemical agent, as we'll as
the basis of chemical action. 1t is
the primal element of light and heat
the promoter of life and the sustain
er of health.
Disease yields readily to its mag
netic touch, and even unrelenting
death is averted by its presence.
Thousands of afflicted and suffering
bear witness to its healing power.
The electromagnetic as practiced by
the Drs. Darrin has revOlutionized
the practice of medicine, asis shown
by the testimonials which they have
received throughout the coast and
wherever they have practiced.
Old practices are giving away to
the new customs are changing
and nowhere is this more noticeable
than in the practice of medicine.
Science is working by cause and eff
feet. Times are changing. New
things are upon us, while the old
are fast disappearing.
Behold one Of the greatest martyrs
to the cause Of science. See Calico in
the gloomy dungeon of the Inquisitlon
because he invented an instrument that
unfolded to the view of the astronomer
new worlds-worlds floating IN space
ami independent of our own spheres
Space would fail to show the vast numbers
of theories that were once deadly opposed,
but are now acknowledged facts, even
among savans. And why this hostility
among all classes to the inception Of the
good and the tr le2 1t is because they do
not obey the injunction, prove all things,
and hold fast to that which Is good"
These reflections are suggested by the
presence of DIS. Darrin in. ..SaIom. They
relieve the sick by process that is op-
posed by those who know not the won
derful effects. As the disturbance of the
vital fires is the source of diseases, they by
some mysterious power restore The equi-
librium, and thereby impart health. All
show their appreciation of their valuable
services by flocking in crowds to their
rooms. Over 100 visit their Portland
rooms daily for treatment. The trophies
If their success are seen not only in the,

The Smallpox situation.

No more trouble Is now appre-
hended In this county on the score
of smallpox. The quarantine otn-
GERS have nobly performed their
tasks and Il spread of the disease
has been averted. The question
now arises, how nre our quarantine
officers to be recompensed? 1t
seems there is no law calling for
their creation and hence no means
for their payment, Judge Shaw is
ma quandary and says the only way
in which his authority would cover
the case or in which money could
be secured from the county is to
treat those afflicted as paupers-in
