TWO CHURCHES.

A prominent Methodist minister
who has been attending the Presbyte-
RAN assembly faithfully, remarked
the other day that the Presbyterian
church was about what the Metnodlst
church was 25 years ago, and that the
latter is about where the former was
then. He meant this, that the Pres
byterian church had taken on a gooo
deal of the old time Methodist enthu-
siasm. while the Methodist church
had been marking time a little, ana
taken up the Presbyterian gait of the
former time.
There was in this little expression
of opinion a mingled note of glad
ness and regret. He was pleased tha'
the Presbyterians had abandoned their
measured step and little sorroWful
that the Methodists had taken it up,
saws the Columbus State Journal. we
quoted the remark of this minister to
another well-known clergyman, in the
same denomination. and he said, with
a smile, Il guess there is a good deal
of truth in what the brother said"
T. is hardly probable, however, that
this interesting transformation IS
more than apparent. Or rather, the
fact is that both have felt the stamp
of the age, as all denominations Will
and must, for as science, art, inven-
ton, education advances, so also do
temperaments and habits change, and
even the statements of doctrine.
The stirring revival of a century or
more ago does not often take place
now, and especially in our rich
churches. but one could not doubt
there is as much real. sincere religion
in these as in those former days. when
religious fervor was more easily
aroused. There is a new disposition
but the faith is about the same. And
yet, when one thinks about it, he is
apt to believe that in those early days
the very winds of heaven were blow
ing through the Methodist churches,
and today if the Presbyterians are
catching the breeze they are mighty
lucky.
There was noted in the tones OF
these two clergymen a feeling of joy
that the Presbyterians were getting
hold of the Methodist spirit. but at
the same time there was evident also
a resolution to reserve large portion
of it for themselves.

GOVERNORS TO GATHER.
State Executives to Attend, Including
Most Western States.

Governors of many states are ex-
pected to attend the fifteenth Nation
al Irrigation congress to be held in
Sacramento, September 2-7 next. The
president of the congress, Governor
George E. Chamberlain of Oregon, has
written to the governors Of the six
teen western states and territories
which come under the provisions Of
the national reclamation act inviting
them to be present and especially urg-
ing the Importance Of the presence Of
the executives of all these states.
Governors of other states have also
been or will be invited to attend and
several are expected to travel long
distances for the purpose of attending
and participating in the congress.
The great irrigation works which
are being constructed by the nation
al government in the sixteen west
ern states and territories are an in
centive to keen interest in the Ma
tional Irrigation congress and it is ex-
pected that most of the governors of
these states will attend. Other states
are directly interested in forestry and
have a common interest in wise gov
ernmental conservation and develop
ment of national resources.

WHERE PRIMARY Law IS
NOT MADE APPLICABLE

OLYMPIA, June 13.-In an opinion
given out the attorney generals office
holds that where community incor-
pOrates as a town of the third class,
the officers to be elected at the time Of
the vote on such incorporation need
the direct primary law of the state.
The question was raised by the
prosecuting attorney of Pacific county,
who called attention to the fact that
it would be practically impossible to
comply with the provisions of the pri
mary election law in such case, there
being no official with whom nominal
lions could be filed as required by the
primary laws, and this, with other
possible complicatio leads the at
torney general to conclude that the
provisions of section 702 of Balm
gers code should govern in such
cases.
Under this ruling the election to be
held when the town of Raymond in
corporates in the near future, will be
regarded as an election to fill unex-
pired terms, as the officers then
chosen will hold only till the general
city election in December.
The attorney general also holds
that the petition for Incorporation
must be published two weeks before
the same is to be acted upon.

CHILDREN THREATEN TO
SUICIDE AND STOP TRIAL

CHICAGO, June 13.-The threat Of
four children to commit suicide if
compelled by order of the court to tes-
tify against their father, on trial for
murder of his son, was the sentiment
tai development that caused another
adjournment to be taken in the case
of John Gross before Judge Kavanagh
in the criminal court.
The blocking of a murder case be-
cause of the refusal of the state*'s
witnesses to testify against the de-
PENDANT is unparalleled in Chicago.
A remarkable court scene followed
the declaration Of little Mary Gross
today that she would end her life if
compelled to take the witness stand.
'Tll drown myself in the lake if you
make me turn against my father"
she sobbed Her declaration was the
signal for an outburst of grief in the
part of the five members of the Gross
family.

UPR00T ORANGE ORCHARDS

bushes in the city of Marysville are
to be cut down within the next few

GOOD FOR ENTIRE WEST
Public Land Convention in Denver
Promises Results

DENVER, June 13.-The public
lands convention in Denver, June 1S-
10 and 20. is likely to have far reach
ing results. 1t is the first time on
record when the western states have
officially attempted to get together to
discuss matters of mutual interest.
1t is generally recognized here in the
west that the people of this section
have problems that are unknowS in
any other part Of the country. Condi-
tons here are entirely different from
those that prevail east Of the Missouri
river and it is exceedingly difncult to
make the eastern people understand
these conditions. On the other hand
the people of the east having the bulk
of the population, control in legisla-
tive matters. The only safety to the
people of the west, therefore, is to
oppose any and every attack upon
the constitutional rights (of the state.
The gradual encroachment of the ma
tional government upon the rights of
the state has probably been due more
to ignorance than with any intention
of harming the west, but the result
is the same. The Denver convention
will undoubtedly serve notice upon
the national administration to keep
hands Of these rrerOgativeS that are
conferred upon the state by the con-
stitution.
While every effort is being made to
rigidly exclude party politics, the con-
vention will undoubtedly have an i'm
portant political significance. This
recognition by the people of the west
ern states of the mutually of inter-
est that exists, will certainly have it's
effect upon the future political action.
Of late years there has been a decid-
ed disposition of the western states to
vote together when it comes to ma
tional affairs. This convention is
not likely to discourage this tendency.
This is one of the reasons why the
people of the whole country is watch
ing the convention with so much in
terest.

CUT THE WEEDS.

Although a majority of the house
holders of Walla Walla take such
pride in their lawns and abutting park
ways as to make it unnecessary
to insist upon the elimination of I'M
slightly weeds, there are many locali-
ties in the city in which the weeds are
permitted to grow in the streets and
along the borders of the parkways,
thereby adding to the danger of en-
croachment upon the lawns when the
seeds begin to fly
Because of this neglect by some, the
beauty of all the lawns is ENDANGERED.
TO obVlate this. a general crusade
against the weeds should be started
