Through all, means ahovo mention ed our church has not only changed rank in ItoKohurg, but also in the Oregon conference. The following comparison will make this clearly evident. In 1!M8 we wen; in a class of the following charges , viz: (iron wsvi lie, Gardiner, Independence, Marsh field. Klamath Kails, LaurcL vood, Woodhurn, Lents, Sheridan. In l!M)!i, we find our charge rated with Albany, Collude Grove, Ashland, Fo rest Grove. Illllrfhoro, Oregon City and the following churches of Port IhiicI, Montavlllu, Selwood and Cen tral. We have great reason today for (banking our heavenly Father for his past blessings to us as a people, uud our hearts :diould beat with the joy of anticipation as we look out through tho doord of opportunity, upon the fields already white for the haivest. Wo should also be thank ful for the success ami outlook of I ho other branches of God's great army fn this field, for H. has other sheep that are not of this fold. Dr. Ilenery Ostrom. one of America's greatest evangelists, says that we should not have our denominational fence so high I hat wo can not roach over to shake hands with on- neigh bor on the other side. Let ns all be familiar with the closing paragraph of the historical statement of our church as found In the discipline, which Ik ns follows: "The sole ohpect of the rules, regu lations and usages of the Methodist FOplscopft! chinch is that it may ful fill to tho end of time Its original di vine vocation as a leader In evun gcllzathm. In all true reforms and In the promotion of frnlermtl relations among all branches of the one church of Jesus Christ, with whom It Is a co-worker In tho spirit mil conquest of the world for the Son of God," Let us show our appreciation for past bleHsimis by moro faithful work In the ful ure. Let us so watch ami pray that we may overcome the world, the flesh and the devil L"t us live such holy lives that wo will bj a rebuke to sinners and a comfort to faints. Let us so hear witness to tho puffer Ing of Jesus that many will be led o repeiilniue Ifnd salvation, during the year.

Congressman Haw ley Asks for Many Appropriation!, AVashlngton, Dec. 81. Represent ative Hawley had a conference with the chief engineer regarding the do sired appropriations for Oregon Im provements in rivers and harbors. Mr. ilawley expects a favorable re commendation from the department for an appropriation of $500,000 for Coos bay, $300,000 for the Willa mette locks, and sufficient sums for the removal of bars and obstructions in the Coquille river, and that the government will co-operate with the local Interests for the Improvement of the Sillslaw bar. Mr. Ilawley to day secured the promise of Dr. Wiley that an Investigation will bo made immediately of the practice of mis branding salmon. A" great injury Is worked upon Oregon fish Interests through the misbranding of Inferior products as Oregon brands. At a meeting of western represent atives held today to consider plans for the rapid completion of govern ment Irrigation projects, Mr. Hawley submitted the draft of a measure au thorizing the secretary of the Inte rior to continue to completion the un finished projects, and the secretary of trie treasury to Issue treasury war rants, bearing 4 per cent Interest In payment of such work, warrants pay able after five and within ten years. The committee will probably frame a measure along the general lines of Mr. Hawley's plan. iniws dv AT TSTATF INSURANfF ZX Vo you want to build you a home and pay for it in small monthly payments and low rate of interest?
