AS TO THE CHURCH.


The church, as a society, is not
to be blamed for the individual
acts of its members. Ministers of
the gospel sometimes 60 astray,
but that is not the fault of the
church. Even John Calvin tolera-
ted the burning of a so-called here
tic. but that is in no sense an ar
raignment Of Presbyterianism or
Presbyterians. Members of the
congregation fall out and fight,
but they are not taught to do 50 by
the spirit of Jesus Christ.
1t is mortal to err, and even the
uplifting influence of the church
cannot make strong every human
weakness. Though they may
sometimes harm the fair repute of
the church, the frailties of human
kind cannot change or damage the
eternal principles or lessen the
magnificent influence for good, the
church exerts on human society.
The wickedest man, does not, can
not desire to blot christianity from
the world. A hundred thousand
human heads, severed from bleed
ing BODIES and piled up before the
gates Of city,-this was an a.
chievement of mankind before the
church spread a bettering influence
over earth and men. The church
is the civilizer, the restrainer of
passion, the moulder- of higher and
better thought, and no shortcom-
ings of a frail membership, here
and there, can be laid at the door
Of christian teachings. These re-
marks apply, in particular, to an
article by Mr.. Ingle, in another
column, and probably are not in
conflict with his ideas.

TO HAVE SIX COMPANIES.
Of Cadets in the oAc Battalion
Never but Four Before-over
Five Hundred.

A few years ago, there were but
two companies of cadets at the col
lege, and there were scarcely
enough students to keep the ranks
properly filled. This year there
will be six companies in the bat
talon There has never been but
four before. The largest number
of cadets in the battalion in the
past was about 2eo. That was at
the end of November last year,
when the maximum was reached.
Now there are already. 600 and a
prospect of enough to swell, the
total long before the end of Nov
ember to over 400. The instance
shows something of the increaee
in the number of students at the
college.
Another instanc. is the chapel
exercise, shortly before nine
o'clock each morning, Once, a
few years ago, there were only
enough students to about half ell
the seats in the chapel. That was
seven years ago, when the total
enrolment for the year was ait.
At chapel yesterday the benches on
the floor were crowded and jammed
with students, There were chairs
in every possible niche and nook,
and each accommodated a student.
There were students standing in
the rear, and an overflow of stud
ents standing in the corridors. Or
the platform besides the faculty.
the senior class was seated. Be.
hind them and clear around the
room there was row Of chairs,
and student on each. The fac.
ulty chairs were so crowded for
ward, that the limbs of some of the
occupants almost hung over the
edge of the platform. And with
all this crowding there were score:
of students not able to enter the
chapel at al.
The number of students now i!

include pupils in vocal music, in

issues. but is confined exclusively

BEGINS TUESDAY.
New Morning and Evening Train
Service on the C & E to Albany.

A new morning and evening
train between Corvallis and Albany
giving facilities for a Corvallisite
to make the round trip to Portland
and return in single day, Is to go
into effect on the Corvallis and
Eastern next Tuesday. The new
train will leave Corvallis at s O'Clock
a. M, connecting at Albany with
the 7 o'clock local which arrives in
Portland at 10 a. m. The arrival
at Corvallis in the evening will be
at about 7:45, making close con-
nections at Albany with the even
ing Southern Pacific train which
leaves Portland at a o'clock. The
arrangement will give corvallisites
opportunity to start at Corvallis at
s in the morning and reach Port
land at 10, to stay there six hours
for business purposes and then
make Corvallis again before eight
o'clock in the evening. Or, the
round trip can be made to Salem.
with a return either at 1890 in the
afternoon or 7:45 in the evening.
It changes the old worn-out ar
rangement by which, in order to do
an hours business in Portland. a
Corva'lisite had to waste the better
part of three days, and gives an up
to-date facility which places Cor
wallis in a long deserved touch with
the outside world.
It is the Cascade train that is to
be utilized for the new service A
growth of transfer business from
the Westside over the c & E to the
Eastside. has much to do with the
new arrangement. This business
Is so increased that 60 to 50 cars a
week are : regularly transferred.
All the Westside traffic in carloads,
destined for Southern and Eastern
points, instead of crossing the steel
bridge at Portland. comes this way,
as does large portion Of through
Portland business. destined for the
same points. The occasion for use
Of this route is that the transfer
over the G & e at Corvallis is less
expensive than is the toll for load
ed cars across the Portland steel
bridge. The switching of the cars
in this traffic and its transfer has
largely fallen upon the regular va
quina passenger. On many occa-
sions however, special G & e trains
have been called into requisition to
help handle the business, until at
last it has been determined by the
c & E management, in order to
meet these freight requirements,
and also togive the Corvallis travel
ing public a better service, to put
on the new train. It is expected
that it will be permanent.
! A service of the kind was once
in vogue on the c & E, but the
passenger business failed to pay
expenses, and it was taken off.
After that, Corvallis people petition
ed the S. P. to put on morning
and evening train over the West
side. This train service came near
naterializing at one time, but a
change in the high officials Of the
company when the plan was On the
point of being adopted. caused q
change in the programme.

Seattle harbor next month she will be
greeted by public demonstration
The matter of arranging the program
OF welcome to be given this, not only
the largest vessel that has ever been
in Puget sound waters. but one of the
largest freight carriers afioat, is at
present in the hands of the Chant e1
Of Commerce.
Secretary Meikle has preached the
subject to many of the business men
of the city, and it has met their hearty
approval. In their opinion the advent
of the Minnesota will mark an epoch
in the commercial life of the city, the
beginning of permanent and regular
freight and passenger service between
this port and the Orient, and that her
arrival should be taken public cogniz-
ance of is in their opinion eminently
proper.
Among the plans that of having as
large number of the mosquito fleet of
the Sound as may be available to &c
down the Sound to meet the Minnesota
and escort her to her berth has received

has been submitted But the plans are
as yet in their incipiency and just
what will be done Is az yet undecided.
The Minnesota, one of the largest
and most modern vessels of her class
afloat, was built by the Great North
ern Steamship Company expressly for
the Puget sound Oriental trade, and
will carry both passengers and freight,
making regularly scheduled trips. In
all respects she is superior to anything
afloat in Pacific waters.

fIAY BE IN 1T.
Decision of Attorney General to
Remain Is AnnOunCed-COrtel-
you to Be Postmaster General
Shaw aud Norton Nav Remain
But No Announcement Is Made.

Washington. Nov. 22-It is announ.
ced at the White House that Attorney
General Moody has decided to remain
in President Roosevelt's newca binet.
Prior to his tranfer from the navy
department to the department of JUS
tice, Mr.. Moody himself authorized
the announcement that at the conclu
sion of the present administration he
would retire from the cabinet to prac-
tice law in Boston. 1t was stated in
this that Mr. Moody had
formed law partnership that was
congenial and advantageous in all re-
spects. This was given as his only
reason for retiring from public life 1t
has been known for some time that the
Office of attorney general of the United
States was entirely to Mr.. Moody &
liking, and as it was also known that
President Roosevelt desired Mr. Moody
should continue in the cabinet, the an
nouncement just made is not surpris-
ing.
1t is understood that the president
and Mr.. Moody are in perfect accord
in their ideas rs to the conduct of the
department of Justice, and in order to
carry into effect certain plans which
the president and he have formulated
Mr.. Moody has decided, on the request
of Mr.. Roosevelt to remain in the
office Of attorney general.
The decision of Attorney General
Moody renders it reasonably certain
that the heads Of six of the great exec
utive departments of the government
have been determined on oy the presi-
dent for the next administration. Mr..
Hay will continue at the head of the
state department; Mr.. Taft at the head
of the war department; Mr.. Metcalf at
the head of the department of COM
MERGE and Dor; Mr.. Wilson at the
head of the department of agriculture.
and Mr.. Cortelyou postmaster general
after the 4th of March next.
1t is expected also that Mr.. Shaw
will continue AS secretary of the treas
ury and Mr.. Morton as secretary of the
navy, but as to those two no definite
information is obtainable. A change
is expected in hte department Of the
interior, but Secretary Hitchcock has
not let it be known publicly whether
he desires to remain or not.
