There have been several parties
through the community trying to hold
revival services at several points.
Some of the Christian people and
churches have been severely criticiz
ed because they have not given them
full support and an opera house to
speak in. These revivalists seem to
be sincere, and from all accounts are
trying to do good, but we think they
make a mistake by not having creden
tials from some organized body. The
church has suffered so much In the
past through a class of preachers,
who go through the country and pro
fess to be workers for Christ, when
the result of their labor proved to be
friction and disorganization.
We think it only Just that a church
should demand some proof In regard
to the former history and character
of such a person. This seems .so lit
tle to ask, for any one capable and
willing to do Christian work can easi
ly get the support of some organized
body. It Is so easy to counterfeit
anything that is good these days that
we think it would be well for even
the preachers to have a "trade mark."

The voters failed to agreo on a tax
levy and the manner of applying the
money, at the road tax meeting on'
the 20th. The meeting was held In
the evening and many failed to come
on that account. Judge Dlmlck was
present and spoke for about an hour
explaining the manner in which the
county's business is conducted. Ho
read a published report showing that
Clackamas County has a smaller ex
pense account according to size and
population than other counties of the
state, llo said that he and the late
Richard Scott had compared the taxes
of Clackamas and Multnomah counties
and had proven the latter much the
highest on account of a much higher
valuation, and also that Clackamas
builds a road for $1800 per mile, that
In Multnoniuh costs $5000, owing to
expensive engineer service and other
things.
The Judge thinks the initiative law
liable to prove expensive and unsat
isfactory but that the referendum Is
a valuable safeguard. A vote of
thanks was tendered the speaker.
It Is said that another tax meeting
may be called.
Two evangelists have just conclud
ed a series of meetings at. the Baptist
