THE 0OvERNORSHIP.

Mr.. John ]. Lane, the able legislative
correspondent OF the Inter Ocean,
writes as follows to that paper on the
gubernatorlal contest:

Of bringing into open competition for

leaders who have hitherto made only
quiet efforts to learn how their candi-
dacies would be received.
That there will be several candidates
for the Republican gubernatorial nom
tnatlon next year seems certain from
present indications. That Governor
Yates would be candidate has long
been expected by the politicians WIN
have watched his course within TIT

trict Christian Endeavor Union was held

Baptist Church. The meeting opened with
a song service conducted by Mr.. Page L.
Zimmerman, and Miss Laura Bangs sang
a solo, Just for Today The devotional
exercises were conducted by Mr.. Carleton
R. Ball of First Congregational C.. E. So
ciety.
President Owen P. Kellar announced that
the union meetings for the coming year are
to be held in Calvary Church. and pre-
scented DIR. Greene. the pastor. who gave
the Endeayorers a very cordial welcome
back to Calvary"
DR.. Greene said there were tremendous
possibilities wrapped up in the Christian
Endeavor movement. and declared 1t as
his sincere belief that 1t Is the finest or
ganization in Professionalism.
Following DR.. Greene's remarks the
Christian Endeavor extension campaign,
inaugurated by DR.. Clark. president Of the
united society. was discussed by Mr.. Bail.
Miss Meynes. Mr.. Hayes, Mr.. Metcalf, Mr..
Stewart and others. Many suggestions
were made as to the methods needed to
strengthen the Endeavor societies and
make them helpful to the young people
and useful in the work OF the church. A
vigorous campaign for new members is to
be carried on in every society, the object
being to induce. II possible, every young
person who is a protesting Christian and
a member Of the church to become an
active member Of the Christian Endeavor
Society. and also to secure as many asso-
ciate members as possible.
The latter part Of the meeting was taken
up by an address by DR.. Merrill E. Gates
on the subject, THE Deeper Teaching
Which Imparts the Higher Power" Dr.
Gates spoke Of the great good which has
been accomplished by the Christian En-
deavor societies. He rejoiced in the growth
and extension Of the movement and the in
crease in its numbers the world over.
Every Christian Endeavorer, and every
Christian. whether an Endeavorer or not.
he said. should be soul winner. 1t should
be the constant aim to lead others to
Christ.
DR.. Gates recommended special study of
passages in the New Testament relating to
the Holy Spirit and His power and infiu-
ence In the lives Of believers. He urged
the Endeavorers to study to become Ia
mtliar with the Bible. The Bible was more
influential than any human arguments.
The next meeting Of the union will be
the first Monday In February. Sunday.
February l. win be Christian Endeayor
day, the twenty-second anniversary Of the
organization of the first Christian En-
deavor Society.
