ANOTHER HOUSE OF WORSHIP
A New Evangelical Church to be Built
in the Eastern Part of the City.

Below is given the statement of Rev.
Fisher concerning the enterprise OF
building a new church in East Salem,
which will be pleasant reading to
hundreds of readers, The church
trustees propose to appropriate $500,
and hope to receive subscriptions
enough to make it reach S25OO. The
plans are made with that end in view,
and it is to be hoped the work may be
carried to success.
Nearly two years ago the Oregon
conference of the Evangelical associa-
ton purchased lot on the corner of
Chemeketa aud 18th. streets in East
Salem, hoping in the near future, at
that time, to be able to erect on the lot
a beautiful church. AS a temporary
place of worship the little tabernacle
athat now stands on the lot was built
In this tabernacle regular services have
Fbeen held ever since, and a good and
interesting Sunday school has been
gathered.
Y This temporary place of worship is
now to give way to a fine church,
plans and specifications for which have
been prepared. A committee has been
appointed to carry out the project, and
the church is soon to take the place of
the little homely tabernacle.
- pvG faaf af16 ia
q beautiful desigH, as will be seen by
the rawlings that have been made.
The inside will consist of main audience
room, prsyer and vestibule; the small
room will be so arranged that in case OF
necessity it can be thrown into the
audience room, and will seat more than
ffty people. Over this room will be a
gallery that will seat seven,y-6ve or
more people, and 1.-THE arrangement is
such that tue front of this gallery, or
balcony, will add very much to the
beauty of the inside of the church.
There will also be a vestibule connect
ed with the main enterance, and from
this into the audience room the pass is
through double doors swinging both
ways. These doors will be covered
with green blze. The entire seating
capacity will be about 4OO-that is, il
will comfortably seat that many.
1t will be seen by this that the COM
mittee Is not only building for the
present. but viii erect building that
will be both an ornament to that part
of the city, aud also a durable, as well
rs p-with-the-times building.
The committee does not expect the
people Of East Salem to build this
church for the Evangelical association,
but arrangements have been made by
which the church can be erected if the
people will be willing 20 assist little,
in order to have good, and also a
beautiful house built. Therefore a sub
scription list will be circulated asking
such as are willing to help us little to
do so.
By erecting a small cheap church we
could build without any help, but we
believe the property owners will be
willing to help us little in order to
have good and substantial structure
put up-something that will be up
with the times.
Plans aud specifications can be seen
by calling at the office of ] G. Booth.
We would earnestly solicit the hearty
cooperation of all the people in East
Salem in carrying out this project.

Mr., GEER.

The position of another leading can
didAte for governor is set ost in THE
JOURNAL. T. T. Geer suffers an in
convenience liable TO al men who
think-those who read after him are
forced to do a heap of thinking too.
Always favorlte with Marion county
Republicans, he now will be found to
have the warm support of large circle
Of Republicans of the state. 1t will be-
said against Mr.. Geer, that he is poor
man, and that be was member of the
last legislature. Both are true. But
he has heen in the legislature many
times and has remained poor. He has
said in print that whoever is the next
governor Of Oregon, will have to serve
for $500 and no perquisites. Mr.. GeeI
says he would do that. In these days
when road supervisorship is coveted
as lucrative position, by close econ
omy man accustomed to farm fare
could support himself at $500 a year
AS speaker of the house before the last,
Mr.. Geer made a record for himself
and the Republican party that COM
pares with the record of the last legis-
lature as Hyperion to Satyr.
