A Glorious Race.


We have lately had the example of
what this personal influence could do
in business. y young man yet in his
thirtics has just been elected president
of the great steel trust. Why? Be
cause when Mr.. Corey was placed in
any position of responsibility he could
not only decrease expenses, but by his
personal example get better work out
Of the men than any one else. As per
sonal influence amounts to so much'
how can we have better influence for
good than by a public profession Of
Jesus Christ? When the Swedish sol
diers followed Gustavus Adolphus
down from the far north they did not
fight for him because he was Gustavus
/ Adolphus. but because they felt he was
a noble Christian. consccrating his life
to the Lord God Almighty. When the

of his followers until at last the vic
tories of LeipSic and Luton were the
results. and the reformation started
by Martin Luther was saved So from
a mere selfish standpoint it pays TO be
Christian. 1t pays to let your fellow
men know thnt you are living for God
and living for the divine cause.
Why. the enemies of Christ have
again and again proved that from a
mere selfish standpoint it always pays
to be Christian. Some time ago the
owner of a large brewery Of this coun-
try wrote to a prominent Sunday school
teacher asking him to recommend one
of Lis Young men for a responsible posi-
ton In his establishment. He wanted
him because he knew that that young
man would not drink and carouse and
that he would have a good influence
over his men. Oh. my young friends,
have often heard young men say, 1T
does not pay to be a Christian" From
every standpoint it pays 1t pays on
account Of your own happiness. 1t
pays in dollars and cents on account
of your faithfulness and work, and Il
pays on account of your influence over
others. Let us one and all today enter
into our first great partnership. Let
US sign ourselves as humble servants
and coworkers with Jesus Christ. Let
the Saviour be the head, the great
head, of that firm and Jesus Christ be
the director of our lives.
The cross is the most hOnored of all
earthly and heavenly signs in more

more efficient in his service. That
means your employer does not hire you
for eight or ten or twelve hours serv
ice. He hires you for every twenty
four hours out of every twenty-tour.
He does not say, "Sell me your time
from a. N. until p. H." but he says:
"Sell me your time from u o'clock
noon until II o'clock noon. l will then
give you fourteen hours Of every twen-
ty-four in which to eat and sleep, rec
reate and improve your mind and body
for the duties Of the following day"
Some time ago was talking with
hard headed and yet a clear minded
farmer upon this subject. He said:
You are right l do not hire my farm
hands from chores to chores, but
hire them for twenty-fOur hours out OF
twenty-four. | expect them at night
to take eight hours sound sleep, so that
they are in a fit condition for my work.

Chamber Of Commerce Discusses
Lack OF Patriotism in Certain
Quarters Of City

The meeting OF the Chamber OF Com
meree last night developed rather liv-
ely discussion on the relation Of busi-
ness interests 10 the chamber. II was
openly asserted that there are business
men In the city who make II rule
never 10 subscribe to public enterpris-
cs. leaving the task OF upholding the
dignity Of the community TO the patri-
otlc few who place the interests OF AS
toria and clatsop county first and the
rest Of the world afterwards.
, The discussion was precipitated on
the consideration Of a question involv-
ing the moral responsibility OF the
chamber 10 assume q liability contract
e,i by the Joint committee on manu-
tactures. The amount Of the debt to be
borne by the chamber is s2i4.bso. and
the members OF the committee on man
ufaeturies and industries are equally
personally responsible for the amount
on note held by one of the banks.
The question that arose WAS as to the
method Of iiquIdating the Indebtedness
some being in favor OF pledging the
chamber by resolution 10 pay $40 per
month, and the majority favoring no
special method. believing that tn" as
sumption OF the liability In sufficient
assurance that II will be paid as quick
ly as the finances Of the chamber ad-
init. The latter opinion prevailed and
was unanimously adopted. and subse-
auentiy motion was passed providing
for committee Of Ave to 80 among the
business men and solicit the amount.
The subscription list was opened al the
meeting and the gum Of s52 was raised

warning to the chamber against appeal

sp, a Drain on Taxpayers
Of County

District Attorney Allen is prepared
for the fight OF his life when the case Of
the state against Charles II. Lane. alias
John l.. Book. alias John Lane. and
Josler $. smith, alias John Lane. and
also charged with perjury, is called in
the court tomorrow. II IL understood
that the defendants will seek to OBJ
tain change OF venue, the object being
to get further time in which to build up
defense.
Witnesses have been subpoeanaed from
Seattle. San Francisco, and Portland
who win identify both defendants and
give evidence in the case. Seattle is
particularly anxious to get possession
Of the defendants long enough TO have
them explain to the satisfaction OF a

liar proposition. and several other peo-
pie who have been duped by them, II
is said. have their hammers out and
will knock with telling erect al the
trial tomorrow, or whenever II begins.
II is going to cost the county OF clat-
sop a large sum OF money to convict the
men. but District Attorney Allen says
that the mystery Of the movable knee

aliases, viii, he feels certain, be solv-
ed to the eminent satisfaction Of all
concerned and in the saving Of at least
5000 to the. city OF Astoria. Lane is
said TO be former inmate Of the CAL
ifornia penitentiary. where he served a
term for grand larceny. Smith Is the
business manager Of the partnership,
acting the part OF the silent partner.
Despite the fact that he has always
been the figure In the background in
the operations of Lane, he will be tried
first
Lane, 1t is alleged. is the man who
sued the City Of Astoria. under the
name OF John l.. Book. for damages for
injuries alleged to have been received
by him on a defective sidewalk on Du-
ane St. The accident he alleged, oc-
CURED on August q. 1900. Smith was
his star witness at the trial, testifying
that he was actually present with Book
when he was precipitated below the
level of the sidewalk. The result Of the
trial, as previously stated in the Morn
ing Astorian, was q vrdict and judg-
ment in the sum of $500. and after
some fortunate delay in the matter Of
payment a compromise on basis Of
$1,000 was about to be negotiated.
The timely arrival of information to
the District Attorney that the, men
we're impostors saved the city Just that
sum. and resulted in the arrest OF both
men.

tion was made by City Attorney

elapse before the state officials take
the oath of office. Governor Varda-
mans inaugural address will be de-
livered on the 10Th of January, and
his inauguration will be quiet affair,
without the usual accompaniment of
military parade or public demonstra-
tion.
The incoming governor expressed
his opposition several weeks ago to
any pomp or paroply attending his
Inauguration. and his wishes will be
respected. The national guard or
ganization will not take any part
whatever in the occasion. In this
connection an interesting bit of po-
litical gossip is being related. 1t
seems to be conceded that Adjutant
General William Henry, who has
served as the active head of the ma
tional guard for the past twelve years,
will not be re-appointed and rumor
has it that we'll known Young mil
ltary man in south Mississippi is
slated for the place. 1t is therefore
quite natural that Adjutant Henry
would not attempt to arrange a mill
ltary parade for the inaugural guard,
especially when it is in opposition to
the wishes of the incoming executive.
