PASTOR
Presbyterians of This
- City Reluctantly Part
with Rev. Walter L.
Van Nuys. . -x
, Rev Walter L Van Nuys, vbo
preaobed his farewsll sermon in tbe
Presbyterian cburob last Sunday anil
has gone to Pendleton to assume tbe
pastorate of the ohurch there, will be
greatly missed in this oily. In Mr
Van Nuys one cannot but recognise
tbose exalted Christian qualities that
are so essential in a suooessful minis
ter. He bas accomplished much for
tbechuiobio this oity. During the
past year there bas been improvoient
work on tba ohurch to the amount of
1696.23, 41 members have been added
to the ohurob making a total member
ship at the present timr ol 140 . At
tbe congregational meeting . of tbe
ohurch held on March 30, tbe follow-,
ing resolutions were adopted.
Whereas, about four years ago our
present pastor, R-v Van Nuys, came
to La Qraude and took charge ol this
field, first as a stated supply and af
terward as tbe pastor of the oburob,
and bas done four years of most faith
ful work lor tbis oburob
; Aud whereas, tne improvement in
the ohniob, both In a spiritual way
and from a business standpoint, is
most marked, as la evidenced by the
fact that when he oame to La
Grande tbis ohurch was being sup
ported very largely horn lh Beard
Home Missions and the funds raised
by, tte oburob membersalp itself
were small and nnoertalo and tbe
Democratic Primaries
Saturday was democratic primary
day. Thar was apparently no con
test with the possible'exoeption of tbe
interest taken by the friends of Jaa D
Slatir and Turner Oliver who 1 are
candidates for distrlot ' attorney. M
Slaters friends claim bs bas earriod
the oity by largo majority . The
following are the delegate (looted in

A COUGH SUGGESTION
This is the teason when chronic throat and lung troubles got tlirtir
start. Any cough is eerijus enough to hnve prompt attention ami
it is also important that ths beH potsible letn dy is secured. We
hop you will try our
WHITE PINE COUGH BALSAM ...
We feel that this is in inauy respects a superior remedy an I Hint
once familiar with it, you will rely on it as your general household
cough cure. It is pleasant to lake and cures quickly as any safe
remedy con. Prico 25 und 50 cents.

In a health r and prosperous condition
- And whereas, our beloved pastor is
about to sever his relations with this
church and to take up his labor tor
the matter in a large Bold of useful
ness . .
And whereas, tbe aclve member
ship in the ohuiob bss nearly doubled
and the congregation more . than
doubled during his past rate. 1
Therefore, be it resolved that ws re-
oogniio in our be oved pastor, tbe Rev
Walter L Van . Nuys, tboea exslted
Obrlstlao qualities and that zeal in
tbe Master's cause that has brought
our own church up to ita present
high standard and will be potent for
good in tbe new field to wbiob lie goes
resolved that we feel tle deepest re
gret that oor relations with him as
pastor, whiob have always been so
pleasant, are now about to be severed;
but that we feel that what is our loss
will ba gain for tbe people with whom
be will take up his new ' Wjrk, .. aud
that our only consolation ie in the
thought that his sphere of usefullness
will be enlarged: resohed that we
nommeud him and his faithful wife Io
the good people of Pendleton, and
trust that his labors til' re muy lie
pleasant to bim and pioduaiive ol
great good in the cause of Christ and
of humanity.
