Tho ProhIbitIonists OF Cameron Have
Their Sincerity Tested.
For months the prohibitionists Of
Cameron have been abusing the munich
pal officers because of their failure to
enforce the law against the liquor SELL
ers in that town. They have been out
spoken and loud in their complaints,
and the fact that liquor was sold openly
and detiantly in the face Of the law was
userl rs an argument for the
Prohibition party. The traffic would
never be stopped, the Prohibi-
ton brethren would say, until
party prohibitionists were elected
10 iii the offices. But It happened that
everybody was heartily sick of the un-
restrained sale OF liquor in Cameron,
the officers now filling the responsible
positions MS well us the Prohibitionists
The officers were also sick OF the abuse
heaped upon them, and they held u
consultation to consider the matter.
To the great surprise and CONSERVATION
OF the "Dry Bund," they offered to ro-
sign their offices one at time and elect
Prohibitionists; one ut time
until they should be possessed
OF every office in the town. They
wanted the law enforced, they said, and
proposed to give their prohibitionists
friends chance to show their hand.
But the dear brothers were not built
that way. Instead Of accepting the
offer OF remuneration they are now de-
nouncing the officers for an effort to
"shirk the responsibility" The DRY
Bund" is hard to please.

talked, said Mr.. Reid, with q minis
ter at Johnstown, who had gone through
that terrible food, and asked him
what impression that great calamity had
made on the people; II he found it easier
to preach the gospel OF Christ to them.
Sir, said he, ! find that it is harder to
preach the gospel here now than be-
fore. The people nrc more wicked. 1t
seems that that awful avalanche OF water
as it rushed upon and over us took with
It much Of the peoples reverence OF God.
They seem hardened and are hard TO
reach with the thought OF Christ.
It is the gentlencss OF God that saves.
Christ came in gentleness. He came
up to Judge the world, but TO save. 1t,
and thank God it is the same still. On
one occasion some great cowarttty hufks
God have mercy on their souls
brought woman into his presence.
They said: "This woman was taken in
sin, and our law says she must die"
You all remember what he said to them;
and when they had all sneaked out,
Christ said to her, woman, where are
your accusers, hath no man condemned
youP" And she said, mo man, Lord"
And he said, Neither do / condemn
you. Go in peace and sin no more"
And she went out into a life OF honor
and usefulness.
Here Mr.. Reid recited in the most
touching manner the beautiful piece,
"Alary STagdalene." It is gentleness
that saves men, IND it is gentleness that
will save your sons and daughters. Mr..
Reid closed with aburst Of eloquence,
exhorting his hearers to be great in
God.

Our Future Trade with Asia.

The commercial outlook Of Oregon is
westward. IL Is nearer by the breadth
Of continent to the markets Of the old
east and Of the Pacific islands than are
the Atlantic ports. No Just estimate
can be placed upon the future volume
and value of the trade with Asia. No
one nation can control it, but the strug-
gle TO possess il viii be mainly between
England and our Pacific coast states.
British statesmen, with proverbial ssgac-
ity, foresaw this struggle, and it was not
the result Of accident that IN settling tho
Oregon boundary we lost the island Of
Vancouver and haf Of Puget sound
In this struggle the new north west
will have an advantage over California
in distance, and IN the fact that the
ocean stream which risss OF the eoaEt Of
Asia and flows eastward TO the American
continent gives TO every snip bound for
a northwestern port gain Of twenty
miles IN every twenty-four hours. The
region win have "a advantage over
Great Britain IN the local production Of
the staple articles required for the Asiatic
trade. He who should now undertake ~
estimate the commerce of the Pacific
coast with AEia and tho Pacific islands
twenty-five years hence would find few
who would not consider ms estimate ex-
aggersted. Senator Dolph in Forum

Cnrinns Test for AhiIitr.

A. well known down town contractor has
a peculiar theory. 1t is necessary for him
to employ great number of men in his
business, and they must possess certain
qualifications in order to give satisfaction.
First and foremost a quickness OF thought
and action is indispensable. Everything
else is subordinate to this.
"And the best place in the world to find
the very men l want is in a restaurant"
said the man to reporter.
The reporter did not see why this should
be so. and the man went on TO explain.
when in a restaurant" said he, you
see man take up the bill Of fare and spend
half an hour looking through its contents
you can put that person down as a man
with no decision of character. The man
who goes into restaurant, throws mis- hat
at peg and gives the waiter his order as
soon as he is seated is the man for me.
You can depend upon it that man can be
trusted to know what he is doing, and is
the proper man TO put in position where
decision of character is an essential qualif-
ton.

Outlaws rhs, Bring Incomes.

An advertising agent gave me some
interesting items today about the
amounts paid by some of the leading
houses here for advertising. The COM
pany who is supposed to lead the list is a
baking powder company which spends
$500, yearly in making their wares
known. Following them the Pearline
people coma, spending $500, 900 annually.
The Sapolio company is credited with
spending $l50,000 Among the dry goods
people, who are about the largest adver-
tisers in the daily papers, L. J. Denning
q Co. stand first. They lay out 500, eco
a year in newspaper advertising. Lord
& Taylor are reckoned next, with an ex-
penditure of $4,000 The big Sixth ave-
nue. bazars run anywhere from sc, 600 to
$50, 900 a year, and the merchant who
does not spend $25, 900 year nowadays
simply isn't in it," SO far as heavy adj
vertising goes.
OF course where such large sums are
expended there is a great deal of thought
put upon the subject and the advertis-
ing man is an important parsonage. So
deeply interested, indeed, are advertisers

somethinr Abou. a Grea. Preacher.

-
Mr.. Sp1rgeon has strong partiality
for the fragrant weed. On Sunday even
ings after the service at the Tabernacle
he may be seen reclining in the cushions
OF his carriage and putting away at his
pipe as he is driven home. he SAYS that
after hard days work he finds smoke
has a soothing and restful effect upon his
nerves. Westwood, his home at Beulsh
Hill, Norwood, is perhaps the finest place
owned by dissenting parson in this
country. BE has magnificent collec-
ton of plants. shrubs, etc, from all
parts of the world. The grounds are
laid out on most lavish scale, and all
the appointments Of the place are in
keeping.
Mr.. Spurgeon has sometimes been re-
monstrated with by persons more ortho-
dox than himself-if such can be con-
ceived-for driving On Sunday. His re-
tort is that he is under grace, while his
horses are under the law, so that their
Sabbath comes on the Saturday and his
own on the Sunday, which is a most con-
yenient arrangement. But it is fact
that he takes cares the animals shall have
at least one days rest in seven, which is
both prudent and humane.
The reporters transcripts of his Sunday
mornings sermon has TO be in his hands
by Z o'clock on Monday morning, when
he carefully revises the Ms. Whether
be makes any provision or stipulation for
the shorthand writer's rest day does not
transpire.
Mr.. Spurgeon spends much time and
pains on the preparation of his sermons
He has two secretaries regularly reading
for him, and when he has fixed upon a
subject he sets these gentlemen TO hunt
up in his ample library and elsewhere
matter likely to be useful to him. Then
he does the work of sitting and construc-
tion.-London Star.
