inspect the three water grade routes
leading from this city to the Bitter
Root divide. The fact that he did
not 20 as far north as the Lolo pass
route, at the head.of the North Fork
of the Clearwater, or the northerly
branch OF the Middle Fork OF the
Clearwater, seems to clearly show
that bis road aims to pierce the Pit
ter Roots further south.
Parties reaching the city yesterday
from the Salmon river country report
that Mr. Pope on his trip to that
country examined four passes at the
summit of the Bitter Roots. All OF
these passes can be conveniently
reached from the National Park sec
tion and this fact Is taken TO indicate
that the Milwaukee Is planning to
pass near the park. The informa-
tion Is also given that In the wreck
of Mr.. Pope's boat ON the Salmon
river TIP he lost all bis engineering
instruments, and that he was COM
PEELED to wait here for several days
before new instruments fol which he
had telegraphed could reach Lewis

The Missionary CaI.--Matt 2S. 10;
Acts 1. s: 1 Cor. 16 8.
The work of the church is not self
Existence and perpetuation only, but
worldwide conquest. The early
church so understood it, and in the
first century went out to the uttermost
parts of the world as they knew it.
The gospel belongs not to one race,
nor to any one nation, but to "all
nations" In apostolic days they were
witnesses "in Jerusalem, in all j..
dea, in Samaria, and to the uttermost
parts of the. EARTH The apostles
literally and speedily obeyed the
great commission. The last selection
has reference to the open doors of
opportunity, which were never so sig.
nally inviting as to-day. The whole
world is open now to the missionar
les. Not only does the miss. mary
call come to us from the Word, but
Providence has opened every nation
and laid on the Protestant church the
responsibility of going 20 the ends of
the earth as an evangel of Christ.
But as in PauPs day there are
many adversaries" Opposing forces
face the church: but the promise of
victory is with us. Let us hear and
heed the missionary call
Many in our modern churches have
no vivid personal conception of the
missionary call. They do not believe
that their duty is to evangelize the
world. They need missionary con
viction. Bishop McCabe always in
sisted when missionary secretary
that everyone needed a second con.
version, conversion to missions.
Not only are many unconvicteG. but
many actually oppose the work of
missions. They need to study this
great commission. One imperative
need In church and In League is to
get our people to really believe in the
missionary idea, to hear the miss.
ionary call.
There is pressing duty to get
under the burden and to give some
fairly creditable answer to this call
Instead of giving thoughtless dollar
and imagining our duty done, we need
10 give by tens and hundreds. In
stead of playing at missions we need
to get down to business and do some
thing worthy of great church of
large ability. We would not depre-
cate what the church is doing, but
surely we have not yet measured up
to opportunity and ability. Thousands
of our best young students need to
be sent to the foreign field. Many
churches could support alone a mis-.
sionary in the field who are now Civ.
ing only few dollars. II we are to
really obey this call we must multi.
ply by the ten, twenty and hundred
fold our offerings for missions. We
must push this work. Organize mis-.
sion study classes, Circulate mis-
sionary Libraries and literature
Talk missions, think of missions,
dream about them, get really in
earnest, and then we hope to lead
the church to obey the great com
mission. We trust that this lesson
may be a real inspiration to every
chapter. Look at the open door.
Consider your duty. Do 1t quickly.

COMMERCIAL REVIEW.

r. C. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review Of
Trade" says:
Confidence has become more general
through resumption Of outdoor work,
opening OF Spring trade and cxpccta-
ton that the war will soon terminate.
Weather conditions are favorable in
most sections of the country, and there
is little interruption because of labor
controversies.
The most gratifying news OF the week
emanates from the iron and steel indus
try, where unprecedented output of pig
iron is not productive of accumulated
stocks. Other leading manufacturing
operations are making steady progress,
although larger orders would be well
coined by cotton mills and shoe shops.
In those lines the buyers are exhibiting
great caution. limiting purchajes to i'm
mediate needs.
Commodities are in good demand,
Dun's index number advancing slightly
to $To1,o32 on March I, against SIoT,-
o42 month previous, which indicates
that the people are consuming freely.
This is also shown by the large increase
in merchandise imported OF late, al
though for the last week there was a de-
crease of $2o64,2 ,228, compared with last
year. Exports gained $2,o7I,oI3.
Trade in woolen goods is quiet, but
mills are busy. Hides continue firm.
considering the season. Leather is quiet
and irregular.
BradStreet's says:

week are I,2S5os6 bushels, against oo7,-

II Is an unnatural and an unfortu-

happy comradeship and sympathetic
fellowship among members of one

What tie binds us more closely in

the quiver of God straight to his heart.
He left the church, went back to the

Young Men Wanted.

Whether we will or not we are all
growing older each day. Many. how
ever. are sensitive to the fact. and very
few would appreciate that which the
Lord spoke unto Joshua Of old when
He said: Thou art old ard stricken
in years" Never be setting sun, for
it is far better to retire in time than
to go down under a cloud. Many really
outlve their usefulness, and others
would honor themselves and bless n
great cause if they would but realize
they are growing old and stricken in
years. They may have done most
glorious works, but there remains yet
much more to be done. and new life,
new ideas, new blood is essential for
the proper accomplishment of the vic
tories yet to be won. Young men are
wanted, but the right kind of men
are needed to properly man the posi-
tiOns. Men OF courage. men of good
Judgment. men of perseverance, are
needed; but back of all that which duly
qualities such men is strong moral
character. for no employer wants
moral leper either in his business or
among his family. Many parents are
partially to be blamed. for in too many
homes there is drinking and gambling
MS the moral foundation Oh which chill
dren are building. Many parents neg
ect worship on Sunday evenings for

wonder why the children go astray.

more honorable and responsible places
