Team Work for Better Humanity.

The world is getting to care less for
creeds and more for deeds, The
judgment of mans worth is based
more upon his conduct than his af-
filiation with some particular
church.
1t was in recognition of this more
rational and tolerant spirit that
President Taft warmly greeted the
delegates of the Federation of
Churches of Christ of America in
W ashington, Wednesday and
commended their cooperative
movement as team work for better
humanity"
This was happy phrase to desig-
nate the new spirit which has grad
ually grown up in the religious
thought of the present day. There
was a Time when men flew at one
another's throat because they differ
ed in certain theological concepts
Families were divided and hearts
wrung over an Interpretation o
the scripture.
But that time has passed
Humanity is not so much interested
now in religious differences as il
religious similarities. Dogmas anC
religious prejudices have no
vanished, but men have found tina
identity of opinion is not essentia
to unity of ann.
1t has become more and more
apparent that in a broad sense al
churches, sincerely looking TOWARD
the betterment of man, are one, anC
that their cooperation is a natura
result of their work, which, as il
other fields of human activity
economies in time and effort, anC
adds to practical effectiveness

All members present at the luncheon
today admitted the seriousness of the
questions involved and also the COM
plexity of the interests involved. One
suggestion was made during the meet
ing that the coming meeting be turn
ed into a general mass meeting and
that the Commercial club as an or
ganization refrain from handling the
subject further. However, this line
of action was considered as improper
in view of the action of the club last
Tuesday and so the subject will be
placed squarely before the local or

IRRIG0N CLUB URGES
SPIRIT OF HARMONY
(special to the East nregonian

Especial to the East Oregonian.)
1rrigon, Ore, Dec Sat a meeting
of the commercial club Of this place
last night, held for the purpose or
considering the controversy that has
arisen over the proposed west exren-
sion of the Umatilla irr' CATION project,
resolutions were adopted as follows:
Resolved, that we deplore the ac-
tion of the commercial clubs of Stan
field and Pilot Rock and certain pri-
vate interests in opposing the west
Umatilla extension project.
That it is our unanimous opinion
that al property owners under what
is known as the west Umatilla river
extension between the Urnatilla river
and Willow creek in favor of said ex-
tension and that upwards of $50 of
said owners that also own Umatilla
river water rights, in the above DIS
trict, are decidedly in favor of it.
That the government guages in the
lower Umatilla river will indicate tina,
there has been enough water gone to
waste during the past twelve months
and for which no one has received
any benefit to irrigate fifty thousand
acres of the west extension
That we are in nowise opposed tc
the water users on the upper river
but invite them to store and use al
the water that they possibly can, al
of which will ultimately rebound t.
the benefit of the lower river.
That we believe in pulling together
for Morrow and Umatilla counties
the state of Oregon and the entir,
northwest.
That selfish private interests anC
political matters have got tangled III
in the water situation of the Umatill;
river in a way that will do great dam
age to the entire state and that we de
nounce all such interests, regardles
of nolitics and creed
That copy of these resolutions b
sent to the president of the Unite
/ States, 10 the secretary of the interior

tives and to the commercial clubs In
