RENTS GO SKY-H|GH.

'"rhey raised me SO per cent and
I might as we'll take it. because it's
folly to move round. The advance
is all up and down the avenue. 1t

most heavily. but professional men

be especially curious to learn If AS
SCISSOR Stewart will now, in turn,
raise the taxes on the various pieces
of property?"
The Traders block rents are up;
certain tenants in the Rookery have
met a raise of 20 per cent. 1t is even
said that the Spokane Club people
had to face big lift in rents. Other
large blocks are said to be involved

1t Is understood that a number Of
scavengers who were in line to get
the worst of it in the matter Of
changing the hours Of work have
partially compromised with the
health board and will await a promis-
ed resolution to be presented to the
council tonight.
A few of the scavengers live at
some distance from the city and this
proposition was, as they saw it, to
so rearrange the hours of work as to
bring them into the city an hour
earlier in the morning and keep them
an hour later at night, the object be-
ing to drive this long distance class
out of the business, and they were

Mr.. Doyle on the Upper st. Joe river
in Idaho. The ore is from the st.

formation is altogether different and
copper and gold bearing leads are
prominent.

in the form of complaints from pro-

Selling OFF
It's Lands

A prominent land attorney is author
ity for the statement that the sale of
Northern Pacific lands during the last
year has exceeded all expectations.
In fact, there never was such rush of
land buyers as last year. 1t is antici-
pated that these sales will be exceeded
in 1904. OF course there will be much
land go next year that is inferior to
that sold during the past year for the
reason that what has been sold during
1903 has been the very pick of the ter
ritory held by the system.

YALE BACCALAUREATD,

(Continued from Second Page)
 Most of us are so constituted and trained that the relaxation of discipline will not leave us at the mercy of blind passion; but it may leave us at the mercy of an almost equally blind spirit of selfish calculation.
 The whole course or events in the nineteenth century has been such as to lay men open to this temptation. The growth of liberty during that century has given people more opportunity to do as they pleased. They have been not only allowed but encouraged to pur- sue their own welfare; and the general results of this course of conduct have been good for the community. Under these circumstances, there has been a tendency to assume that if each man pursued his own interests in a more or less intelligent fashion things would somehow work themselves out for the benefit of the body polite; and that even if they failed to work themselves out In this way, the individual himself was free of responsibility.
 This attempt to make human selfish- ness the Fundamental standard of right conduct is as disastrous as the attempt to make our unchecked animal irl- stincts the standards of right conduct. Almost every evil-political, social or comrnercial-which constitutes seri- ous menace to the permanent prosperi- ty of our country can be traced direct 1y to our tolerant acceptance of selfish ness as basis of morality. Under the restraints provided by our laws and traditions and inherited tastes, the evil effects of selfishness may remain for a time unnoticed. just as the evil effects of appetite or passion may remain un- noticed. But if we allow self-interest to be made the guiding star of our lives, sooner or later there comes cri- sis when we face the choice between good and bad, and take the bad. Soon- CT or later there comes some temptation of pleasure to which we sacrifice our

RALLY AND BANNER RAISING.

Campaign to be Opened at Young Mems Republican Club To-Night.
 To the delight of the enthusiastic members, the Young Mems Republican club is to open the campaign with a rally and banner raising at the club house this evening at 8 o'cock. The banner is to be strung directly in front of the club, on it being the portrait of
 President Roosevelt and the candidate for vice president, MT. Fairbanks. Space
 will be left for Congressman N. D. Sperry as soon as he is renominated also for the candidates for governor
 and lieutenant governor.
 Chairman Michael Kenea1y of the state central committee has agreed to
 be on hand and tell the "boys" about
 the national convention. Congressman Sperry will also make a short address,
 besides one or two other speakers whom
 the committee at this time is unable to announce. The Second Regiment band will be on hand to enliven matters, and a large turnout is expected.
 At the club Saturday evening there was a large demand for excursion tick l cts to the Yale-Harvard boat race,
 and those who expect to go on this trip
 are securing their tickets early. The committee has arranged with the steamboat company that if in it's judg-
 ment the weather is not suitable for a
 race the boat will not leave the dock, and in case they do not go those who purchased their tickets in advance can
 redeem them at the club after Thurs 1 day.
 i No intoxicating liquors will be allow 1 ed on the boat, and all objectionable | features that have to be contended
 with on some other excursions will be 1 eliminated. Refreshments can be se-
 curedcured at city prices on the. boat,
 and Wells full orchestra will furnish the music.
 l Tickets, which will positively be limit
 ed to 700, can be secured as long as they
 last at the club house.

 Gentlemen of the Graduating Class: The really fundamental thing in a mans life is his choice of religion. Two religions are to-day struggling for the mastery. There is the religion of Mammon, whose dominant purpose is selfishness and whose creed Is indiffer- ence to moral considerations, except so far as they may be regarded as instru- ments of individual advancement. There is the religion of God, whose pur- pose is service and whose creed is loy- alty to something larger than your selves. The religion of Mammon ap-
 peals to those who value the external evidences of success-the pomp and the luxury, the title and the show. The religion of God appeals to those who value life for the work that it brings, and measure success by the honest effort that man has made to do his work. It appeals to those for whom wealth and power and profess lsional eminence are not ultimate ends,
 but means to larger service and sacri- l flee. It appeals to men who will not lsell their honor. no matter how high the price, nor betray their friends, no
 matter how great the advantage. It
 appeals to men who have vision large enough and purpose deep enough to 1 hold a straight course in the face of op- position or misrepresentation, and en-
 dure for conscience sake whatever Hardship may fall to their lot. These lwere the ideals of Christ, which he Iheld through temptation and suffering. This is the significance of every line in the history of his life and death. Who- ever follows him In this spirit has the fright to call himself a Christian and to | claim the promises of the Christian faith;-the promise that whoever will Hose his life for Christ's sake and the gospels, the same shall find it. By many roads do such men come to the feet of God; but thither do we all come at last.

Thomas of Trinity Episcopal church gave very helpful address on Life The meaning of life he said de- bends on whether or not we have a knowledge of one who is above us-the author and giver of life. Men who do not know of the love of God must find life a burden.
 The certainty of believing in and be- longing to God and His Christ are in- comparable to all else. In closing he urged his hearers to yiel themselves to the higher influences of life.
