Another Bad Man Mistaken.

Jim Crate is sadie and wiser man
this morning. He has labored not under
the delusion that the world owes him a
living, but that eInall share of it, that
class of society known as the demi
monde, are financially responsible for
his needs, be theyklarge or small. While
in a house of i'll fame adjoining Maetz &
Pundt's saloon last night he made his
usual demands for money of the inmates.
Tney refused, but he persisted, even re.
sorting to threats of personal violence.
They retaliated and threatened to call
the police. He then defied the whole
police force of the city. Shortly after
ward Officer Connolly and Marshal
Blakeney arrived, having been sum-
moned. Crate fed to the room next
door, where he was followed by the Off
GERS. Being approached by Blakeney,
Crate shot out his left, but some way 1t
missed connection, and stinging blow
in the face felled him to the floor. Both
officers picked him up and he went very
meekly to the city Jail. Blood was
streaming from his face, and physician
lcalled, who found that Crate had sus-
tanned fracture of the nose. He was
patched up, and this morning appeared
before the city recorder. He plead
guilty and was fined $50. There is an
other fine of $50 hanging over him for a
misdeed some months ago, which he for
feited y coming back to the city. He
will now have to pay the $50, or serve it
out in Jail, before he is given another
opportunity to leave town.

Words from Ellis.

Hon. W. r. Ellis, writing to constit-
uent in The Dalles, speaks frankly in
regard to several matters of general in
terest. He promises that the Oregon
delegation will do all in their power to
secure the necessary appropriations to
protect and complete the work at tie
locks, and that speedily. In regard to
the public building at The DallesI he
considers the chance for getting such a
bill through the present congress is very
remote. Speaking OF the tariff. he is
sorry the senate would not take up the
tariff bill as it came from the house.
On the whole, he thinks the present
congress will not accomplish much,
agreeing with The Dalles correspondent
that they are too busy president-making.

Republicans at Grass valley.

The opening gun of the campaign in
Sherman county was the big Republi-
can rally at Grass Valley on Saturday
last. There were over 500 people pres
ent, many coming from a distance OF
twenty miles. The speaker of the even
ing was Hon. John Michel, who held
the floor for over two hours, amid much
enthusiasm. He handled the political
situation in his accustomed forcible
manner, and administered potent medi-
cine from his generous laboratory of facts
and figures. The inclement weather
(there was snow on the ground) did not
detract from the size of the assemblage,
Three brass bands and two quartettes
contributed to the enjoyment of the
evening.

Mr. stewart Enterrains.

Mr.. George Ernest Stewart, teacher of
the Young Peoples Bible class of the
Christian Sunday school, gave a recep-
tion to the members of his class last
Saturday evening, at the residence of
Hon. E. B. Dufur, the occasion being in
honor of the anniversary of his 10th
birthday. The event is one long to be
remembered by the merry guests pres
ent by reason of the manner in which
they were most happily and royalty en-
tertained. Father Time, who is, at his
very slowest pace, an exceedingly diff
cult fel low to keep up with, seemed to
have issued special orders for that even
ing, that his winged element tax its
speed to the very utmost, in order that
the hours might appear to be about half

PoLIrIcAL PREAcHING.

There is much to be said, pro and
con, in regard to the introduction Of
politics in the pulpit. Conservative
people pretty generally believe that II
is unwise If a minister had congre-
cation, all of whom believed as he did,
it would perhaps be well enough for
him to harangue them regarding any
views outside of religion which he
thought fit, but our churches are gem
orally made up of those, who, though
they may agree in religious faith, rare
ly do so in regard to political affairs.
1t is impossible, then, for a minister
to take sides with one part of his con-
gregation without offending and doing
injustice to another part.
Notwithstanding this, many clergy
men assume that they have a right as
American citizens to their political
views, which they conscieRtiously be-
lieve to be correct, and that they
would not be doing their duty to the
members of their flock if they did not
warn them against false politics the
same as they would against false re-
ligion. Thus it viii be seen that there
is a large difference of opinion be-
tween both people and clergy regard
ing this subject, and one of our con-
temporaries has requested the opinions
OF some of the most able clergymen, as
we'll as laymen, regarding it. II is not
surprising to find among those who
have given their opinions in answer to
5 this request the same disagreement
that we have already noted.
Some of these men, like President
Eliot, of Harvard, rather incline tow
ard the belief that ministers should in
sist on the general principles that ma
tional honor and honesty are the same
as personal honor and honesty, and il
is therefore proper that the minister
should inculcate such truths in his ser.
mons 1t is plain that President Eliot
is disposed to take sides in the poll.
tics Of the present day, while President
Warren, of Boston University, says:
"As a rule the best political service Z
minister Of the gospel can render is
that which incidentally results from
his personal influence as an enlighten
ed patriot and high-toned teacher o.
morals" He does not think a minister
should be identified with partisans il
methods that would lead anyone t
suspect his purity Of motive.
Bishop Foss. OF the Methodis
Church, says: My conviction is that
in general, the pulpit has too little t,
do with the moral aspects of politica
questions, but that some pulpits have
quite too much to do with merely par

We do not believe that either State
Senator John Pyle or Thomas ~ Stay
ton expected their friends to 90 to such
reprehensible lengths, but whether
they did or did not, their over-zealous

The ticket nominated is a strong

thereby nullify the effects of the most
