The United States geological survey

Companion. The survey was engaged
last year in making an investigation of
metalliferous ores. In summarizing
this work the director says the eff

members of the economic force of the
survey, in consequence of their en-

they have been receiving from the

practical experience in the field" he

3 we must recognize the imm-

til at last the mere ceremonial

7 will give US help and deIiverance
z in the dark hour. In that fatal
hour of battle Israel discovered
! that their help did not lie in
that mere creation of wood and
( gold; that it's presence with
Z them, and the careful observance
5 of their forms of worship did not
/ insure them victory. And so is
, it ever true. Religion is a thing
( apart from things and outward
( forms and ceremonies. Reli-
) gion is thing of the heart, and
! the heart cannot become the
, holy of holes in which God will
( take up his dwelling place ex.
\ cept as sin is repented of and
D cast out. This is the second
Z thought, then, which we would
2 emphasize. That even though
( God is imminent always in the
) welfare of man, he is far, very
Q far, from the Individual heart
4 that is given up to its own Iusts
' and desires. And let US not for.
( get that while sin is in the
Z heart and the life, the presence
D and favor of God cannot be won
I by zeal in religious forms and

( repents and turns from sin that

every part of Oregon, as it means "a
pull all together for the entire state.
Lincoln county should be represented
by representative, enthusiastic business

to the latter will be the live stock show.
The day of scrub cattle in Oregon is
fast disappearing, and Lincoln county
stockmen should be ambitious to con-
meet with all the valuable pointers
within reach.

would seem like submission to the

give the employees goods at cost in
