A Member Of the Legislature Replies to
/ the Resoluti ms Of the Ministers.
Ed. JOURNAL:-In the JOURNAL /
notice that the Salem ministerial as
sOciation has resolved that "its mem-
bers will not pray ia either the house
or the senate until the legislature is
unitedly at work" This is especially
tough. Christ never hesltatcd TO
pray for sinners whether they were
organized or unorganized, but some of
these latter-day disciples evidently
Imagine they are bigger than Christ.
1t is hard, very hard, for Christian
member of the legislature to reconcile
the pure religion Of Christ with the
church religion of today. In Christ's
day He stood with the poor and OPP.
pressed tax payer, but His alleged
ministers of the present dispensation
stand, mainly, with plutocracy, be-
cause plutocracy is able to pay their
salaries, while the poor, unfortunately
for themselves, are unable to pro-
duce sufficiently to suit the
preachers, In Christ's day the church
led In all political reforms. Today
the churches, for the most part, cling
like barnacles to the cause of the rich
against the poor, and it i'll becomes
the ministerial association Of salem, or
any other city, to poke its nose into
secular affairs. AS member of the
present Oregon Legislature, as a be-
llever in the excellence of christianity
and its influence rightly exerted on
the masses, object to the resolutions
of the Salem ministers for the good
reason that their prayers don't get
higher than than their heads. / sus-
picion that the senatorial sack of the
the Southern Pacific railroad may
have had something to do with the
adoption Of the resolutions. Now,
l risk being called ungodly by these
latter-day saints, but / will
wager my unearned salary against
church mouse that any member of
the legislature has just as much prac-
ical religion as any ministerial gen
tleman who voted on those resolu-
tions. 1t was done of course to influ-
ence public opinion. AS one of the
members don't need any of their half
hearted prayers. l have often list
ened to their supplicatlons in the leg
islature attentively and in most cases
the effort seemed to be 'to make a
better prayer than Brother So-and-
So" l believe that two-thirds vote
of either house could be secured on the
proposition to do away with the SER
vices Of the clergy entirely, on the
ground that it is unnecessary and
takes up too much valuable time each
day. The ministerial association is
too previous. 1t is not so essential to
the legislature as it may seem. The
Legislature can very we'll dispense
with the services of the ministerial
association of Salem. We are willing
to take our chances and "go it alone"

TIE rae to take place at the Park ice
rink this evening between Albert Dayey
and DesRocheau, the Negsu nee speedy
tskater, is attracting considerable inter
est among local enthusiasts and there
promises TO be very large attendance.
DesR och eau is expected to arrive on the
afternoon train so IA to try the rink once
or twice before the race comes off. Des
Rocheac skated Nels Ericsson, the st.
Paul champion, at the Ishpeming rink
Hast Wednesday evening and there is no
DOUBT bot that be will give Davey a
swift race IL the latter wins. Contrary
to What might be expected, many Calu-
met people are betting on DesRocheau,
principally from the reports of the race
he and Davey skated at Ishpeming sey'
.eral weeks ago. However, Davey'e
friends are confident that he can win and
sthe odds are in his favor. The race will
he for a distance OF one mile and will BIZ
called before 8 O'Clock.
The ice at the rink has not been in the best
aot condition for the past week or so, but
Mt was a little colder today and the skat
hng surface will be better this evening
The Fifth Regiment band will be in at
tendance this evening and tomorrow

How They Work It.

Tue Chicago Record states that out oil
the sixty four aldermen in that city seven
sot them are saloonkeepers, and, notwith.
standing the ordinance made by them.
fselves requiring that all saloons be closed
at midni xht, the saloons owned by four
'of the aldermen. viz; Coughlin, Bremen
Powers and Rogers, are open at all hours
of the day or night.
It appears, however, that Alderman
Rogers, whose saloon is in West Madison
sstreet, closes the doors OF his saloon a,
midnight, but having a restaurant mex,
door which is kept open all night the Gus
toners enter the restaurant and passing
through it go into the saloon. IL il
stated that last Saturday morning abou,
.2:3O twenty-three men were lined up nj
the bar drinking and number coming
and going.
From the above it would appear that
the restaurant annex is worked in Chica
go az il is in other places; it is to bt
hoped the nightwatchmen OF this village
will see TO IL that the racket is no, worked
here, although many people appear tc
ahink iti IL.

ported as not caring whether Hartsuff
was rejected or not.

A Islander case growing out Of i'll feeling
between nelghbors was up before Justice
Fisher this morning, but was SPEEDILY
settled. liz seems that Mr.. and Mrs.
Lacker resided in the same house where
young lady named Annie Rossman
lived. The Rossman girl lived with the
other family in the double house. Mrs.
Lacker suspected that her husband was
too intimate with Annie and once when
they were talking over the matter, Mrs.
Lacker took occasion to cell Miss Ross
man decidedly slanderous name. Annie
didn't like this and had Mrs. Lacker
arrested. The latter could not prove the
truth of her statements and pleaded
guilty to the charge. The Judge imposed
a So fine and costs, which had the de-
sired effect of soothing Miss Rossman's
injured feelings. The fine was paid.

The Experience of a
Red Jacket Mer-
chant.
Would There Were More.


Chance ! ring thrown us into the
company OF Mr.. Harold T.. Lean, OF the
Economy store, the conversation natur-
ally turned upon business matters and
Incidentally the progress he was himself
making came upon the taps. As will
no doubt be remembered after leaving
Mr.. Rupees employ he, with two Others,
started the firm of Lean, Wills 4 Craze,
but which, in consequence OF disagree
ments between the partners and for other
reasons, soon went to pieces, at the time
being considerably in debt. After which
Mr.. Lean obtained employment, but,
being so constituted, he felt be had to be
an business for himself and accordingly
opened out his present business in Red
Jacket, but, as some OF the judgments
obtained againt the old firm were still
hanging orer him, the business was
started in the name Of his wife; Mr.. Lean
being an honest man did not like this, 80
ne set himself TO work and made arrange
oneRts with the creditors of the old firm
aot q tCicoSc, u5 iai 90 NC w us iuuiNiuu-
ally concerned, by paying his share Zone
thicd) OF the debts. This naturally kept
his nose to the grindstone, but he worked
early and late, this he said was the rea-
Ssop he did not feel like closing when the
Others did, and by so doing has paid off
all his share OF the old judgment indebt-
sedness and consequently now has a clean
bill OF health before him and as business
has been gradually increasing Mr.. Lean
appears to have bright future before
him in the mercantile world, his straight
forward conduct having caused the
wholesale merchants to offer him all the
credit his business may possibly require
He had. we understand, some dispute
with one Of his brothers who had loaned
him some money, but for this also he
now holds receipt.
Mr.. Lean stated that he intended to
settle with another OF his creditors, being
a poor man although he had allowed his
claim TO run out and 10 Conclusion some
what startled US by stating il the News
would give him the amount Of it's ac-
scsuRt against the late firm he would see
that one-third vi it was paid. II other
of oar debtors would only do the same
swe should not be 80 much harrassed as
we have been.
