REV. N. A. MATTHEW'S, DID,.
Addresses the Young Peoples So
CietieS FRIDAY Evenin0.

Rev. MA. Matthews, of the First Pres.
byterian church. Seattle, addressed a
crowded house in the Congregational
church last Friday evening.
| The occasion of this meeting was the
first anniversary of the organization of
the Y. P. S. G. E. OF Grays Harbor. The
program consisted OF singing by the
Young Ladies' Chorus of the Congrega.
tional church, two solos by Miss Suzanne
Baker, of Hoquiam, and the address by
DR.. Matthews.
Although the music was we'll rendered
and fully appreciated, the address by DR..
Matthews was the "piece de resistance"
OF the evening.
The topic, "The Civic Duties of the
Church," was handled in masterly
manner. The thought, the salvation Of
the country from graft and mob rule,
was 30 woven into the work OF the young
peoples societies of the churches, by
the speaker, that the civic duties of these
bodies were made exceedingly plain and
placed upon them as an imperative duty.
Some of Aberdeen's citizens have been
complaining that the addresses OF DR.. d.
N. Mclnturf have been rather severe and
personal, go far as the churches are con.
cerned. Had they heard DR.. Matthews
they would have certainly said that the
address last Friday evening was not far
behind along the same line.
DIR. Matthews is lucid and eloquent
speaker, and at the close OF the address
many went forward to thank him, and
several business men invited him ia
make date for another address in the
near future, in this city.

Briefly, such is the record of the
last legislature on revenue and tax
alton. 1t will be noted none of the
increases fall upon the ordinary tax
payer. Not only that, but for the
llrst time IN many sessions, no
change was made in the manner of
and time for paying taxes.
Just how far the anticipations of
the effects of these new laws will
be realized, only the future will de-
termine.

The Watterson dark horse" will
have no chance for the Democratic
nomination If his good points are not
exhibited. 1t has always been the
rule in the Democratic party that all
who are candidates, or who their
friends desire to be nominated. shall
have fair field and no favors asked
or expected. That this good old
Democratic plan may not be rescind-
ed, Mr.. Watterson should name his

and past performances. But as he
does not seem willing to do this we
may be permitted to guess that
Judge Harmon Of Ohio is the man
that Marse Henry has in mind, and
for the life of us we cannot think
why there should be any mystery in
proposing him as one who is worthy
Of consideration. He certainly meas.

question; or whether he would unite
the factions in the party better than
Mr.. Bryan can is the question that
must be considered and decided be-
fore he or anyone else will be nomi

AVAILABLE CANDIDATES.

A canvass of the newspapers, both
Democratic and Republican, during
the past month. gives evidence of a
very singular and sudden alteration
in sentiment concerning Democratic
prospects in 1908. The apathy that
always accompanies an inevitable
candidacy seemed, up to two months
ago, to have settled on the party; but
now, since the appearance of ten
available candidates, the whole com.
plexion of the situation is changed,
and nowhere is this more evident than
in the editorial pages of the news
papers referred to.
Among the names suggested as can.
didates are Overman, White, John
son, Daniel Swanson, Rayner, Cul.
berson. Carmack. Beckham, Smith
an1 Francis. 1t is a singular fact
that in all this long list there is not,
except Johnson, the name of single
Northern man. II seems to be gen.
orally conceded that the South is to
name the next candidate of the party,
and II is probably the most significant
sign of the times that this inevitable
event has excited no adverse criticism,
either in the North or West.

CHIEF JUSTICE GIVES ADVICE.
Urges Warning Factions Of Church to
| Adjust Differences.

Amid the acclaim of large NUMBER OF
the congregation, which appeared to have
declared a holiday to attend the hearing OF
the injunction proceedings instituted by one
faction Of the First Colored Baptist church,
Of 9th and Dumbarton streets, against the
remainder Of the church members, Chlef
Justice Clabaugh today, doffing, hguratlve-
ly, the judicial ermine, enacted the role OF
peacemaker in an attempt to save threat
ened disruption of the church. The court
advised both the compliments and de-
PENDANTS to exercise more charity and
patch up their differences. not only to save
the church as body, but also to avoid
costly litigation. AS the court proceeded IN
his discourse, heads were nodded In &C
quiescence and CALCULATIONS of God bless
heard.
Chief Justice Clabaugh stated that as he
was satisfied of the uprightness of Rev.
Edgar Kicks whose ministrations as pastor
had been temporarily enjoined, he would
remove from him the operation of the tenn
porary Injunction so that he may act as
pastor and call a meeting of the congrega-
ton in order that the voice of the majority
may be learned. He, however, declared
that the ousting of the complaining
deacons and trustees had been unlawful
and he ordered them reinvested with their
authority until such time they might
have opportunity to be heard in defense Of
any charges to be brought against them or
until a new election be held.
Attorney Joseph H. Stewart represented
Rev. Mr.. Kicks and the defendants, and
Attorneys Thomas L. Jones and James E.
Padgett appeared for the compliments.

counter one of the nature wells at any time.
For several mornings past the fog over the
water has been very thick during the early
hours of the morning, and at no point on
the river was it thicker than at the juno
ton of the channels just below this city.
This the steamboat men ascribe to the fact
that the water coming out Of the harbor
and the Eastern branch is conside rably
warmer than that of the river, and the
cool air of the early morning has made. the
fog at this point all the more dense. The
steamer Lackawanna on the ferry line be-
tween this city and Alexandria,. has had
difficult Job landing at the steel plant pier
during the fogs. but as she carries the
workmen from this city and Alexandria to
the plant during the early morning it was
necessary that she SHOULD land there in
spite of the fog. To aid her officers in
locating the pier in thick weather the
managers of the steel plant have deter
mined to erect a fog bell on the wharf to
be rung during fogs The bell was yester-
day taken from this city to the pier and
will be placed in position on the end Of the
pier at once.
