EVANGELICAL ASSOCIATION

EVANGELICAL ASSOCIATION
This denomination has Just held ii
annual association at Portland and re.
ports it affairs in very prosperous con
dition. In ten years the society in Or.
egon has built fifteen new churches
added twenty new organizations and
trebled its membership rolls. When
so many other churches report apathy
and some even decline ia strength, II il
very gratifying to the Eyangelcals un
der all the circumstances to report such
a growth.
Their field is hard one 10 work, az
their mixed population Of Germans and
Americans are scattered like pepper and
salt over a new country. About 10 years
ago this church was divided into two
branches and their growth is phenomen.
al on that account.I I may be a matter Of
interest to state that two centennials
will be celebrated this year Of the events
attending the anniversary OF its forma.
tion 100 years ago. These celebrations
will be all the more enjoyable in view OF
the fact that the church has weathered
the financial crash and is coming out in
good shape. with bright prospects, al
though still somewhat in debt. :
Rev. Noah shupp is returned to sa.
lem as pastor OF the first church and
presiding elder, with an assistant in the
person Of Rev. Y. b. Culver, Rev. J. f.
Smith OF Indiana, is made presiding
elder Of the new Portland district, and
Rev X. Pierce Of Boston has been added
10 the preaching force.

MONEY FoR nsrrER ROADS.

Governor Geer has received from the
United States treasury department q
letter stating that draft ior siiOi Od
had been drawn in favor Of the governor
OF Oregon, that sum being the balance

sales Of public lands within tho state
during the dscal year ending June 80.

can candidate and Republicans are en-
titled 10 know all the facts and 10 decide
whether they want man with the rec
ord Of attachments he has produced in
his own behalf for public prosecutor Of
the second largest district In the state.
Mr.. Hart says he was admitted TO
practice law In 1895. After that he
taught school one year at Falls City, and
has been county superintendent Of
schools Of Polk county for four years.
That county has sixty districts, and the
people are expected 10 swallow Hart's
statement that the duty Of supervising
those schools has not interfered with his
law practice, and at the same time
believe that he had any law practice.
THR JouRSAL has found one case in
which young Hart did prosecute in the
Polk county justice court. IL was the
case Of the State W. Blake on charge
Of the larceny Of bacon. As The infor-
nation comes TO us, he did not know
enough to allege or prove that the bacon
had any value, 70 he was shut out Of
court.
THE JOURNAL has found one case where
he appeared for a Salem lawyer in the
suit Of j. X. Sears Va. The Secretary Of
State. He was asked 10 protest against
any record showing an appearance.having
been made in the circuit court by coun-
sci on either side, but failed 10 obey in.
structions and entered an appearance,
prejudicing his clients interest thereby.
The experience he alleges In the fed
eral courts consists in filing petition
in bankruptcy case that was knocked
out on demurrer. He filed an amended
petition and that shared the same fate
and 10 the case stands.
IL is not pleasure 10 publish this rec
ord, but II is duty we owe the people
10 warn them 10 not elect man 10 an |
Office that is next in importance 10 the |
office Of circuit judge itself, aud is paid
nearly as good salary. Such public
prosecutor would reduce the Office 20 a
farce. The people who want an able, in.
dependent man In that office, who
would not be a stool pigeon OF any ring
Of lawyers, should vote for Jack Jeffrey,
a brilliant orator in the legal forum, and
who has record Of having sent crimi.

It is not an eXperi- mental medicine. but has stood the test of years, giving satisfaction in every case, which it's rapidly increas- ing sale every season confirms.

It was @ pet of the wife of the tnsIneer of a locomotive, and now it accompa- nies the engineer on every trip that h. makes. When the train has to make a long wait the cat go5s off in seacrh of mice, always returning when the whis- tie sounds, and at some Of the stations it is quite a pet. When the engine is running the cat sits in the cab or on the coal. and, as its fur is jet black, is beauty is not greatly impaired by it's grimy surroundings. Pussy must have traveled many thousands of miles for it has been doing duty for several years and was never known to miss a trip. That cats care little for peo- sons and are attached to placss and to their environments, was seen in the case of this cat last year. The engineer was badly hurt in a collision and was laid up for three months. Instead of the cat following him as a dog would doubtless have done, she stayed about the sheds until the engine was repaired ana then sine once more resumed her rides wa.h the substitute engineer Los Angeles Times.
