It is often laid down as an axiomatic truth that denomlnationallsm is one of the greatest drawbacks to Christianity, and some years ago almost every relig ious body was deeply stirred by a ground swell in favor of uniting together every Christian denomination. It was speedily discovered, however, that this Idea was wholly illusory, because In order to bring It about each denomination would have to surrender tha special tenets that justified its existence as a denomination, and not one of them was willing to do that, though each of -them was ready to I accept the capitulation of all the others. Then came the suggestion that If a cor porate union waa Impossible, at least tho churches might cultivate the spirit of comity and co-operate In certain lines of work whero co-operation would not antagonize the tenets of any denomina tion. Modest as this last suggestion is, It haa been looked upon with more or less suspicion, and It will be a long time before It becomes an actual working principle in the churches. In the meanwhile, as was Inevitable, many earnest Christian thinkers are com ing to question whether, after all, de nomlnationallsm is such a bad thing. They believe that If Christianity were re duced to its least common denominator by the elimination of all tenets peculiar to each church, the result would be a body united, indeed, in fact and In name, but weak, impotent and unaggressive. Its creed would be little more than a pallid deism. Incapable of Inspiring any enthusiasm or commanding any alleg iance. Deprived of the picturesque forms, ceremonies and traditions in which the or iginal teachings of Jesus have in the va rious denominations enshrined themselves. It would have no magnetic or persuasive power over the multitude. It would be largely a remote abstraction, a sort of religious system of metaphysics or philos ophy, appealing only to the esoteric few. Denomlnationallsm makes the church a human thing because it injects into the warp and woof of its life the beliefs, opinions and colorings of the average man when he sets out to Interpret for himself the message of Jesus. That un der such conditions denomlnationallsm tends to propagate much that Is mistaken or false needs not to be said. To that extent It undoubtedly does harm to tha causa bf truth and blurs the picture of real Christianity. But, on the other hand, without the surplusage of denominational error tho essential teachings of Chris tianity could, net be preserved through the vicissitudes of the ages. For thus only it haa a body, and. what Is quite as Important, a body not so large but that Its members can easily take part in its corporate life and feel In its success tho same sort of local pride that a citi zen may feel in the prosperity of his town or county. Moreover, even denomi national rivalry, unlovely as It sometimes is, and wasteful as it always Is, does at least stimulate tho zeal of each Chris tian for his own church; and in working for his sect, from motives however mixed, ho cannot help promoting the cause of the larger good which each de nomination strives wholly to enshrine In Its creed. According to this view, then It results that not only must there be denomina tions, but that they are, under present conditions, distinctly helpful. And the only thing to consider is how their ad mitted evils may be mitigated. As to co-operation, not much can be said yet; but its advocates believe that It Is slow ly but surely forcing its way to prac tical recognition. As to religious comity, tha N-vldences of its-rapid growth In all the churches are 4oo numerous to men tion. The harsher tenets of the denomi nations are minimized, if not ignored, and In every part of the Christian world hands are clasped in amity over the most yawning denominational chasms. Two in teresting cases in point wero recently noted by The Portland Oregonian. A few weeks ago Dr. A. A. Morrison, rector of Trinity Episcopal Church, Portland, being called upon to officiate at the funeral of a suicido, uttered these words of com prehensive Christian charity and hope: It Is too generally believed that divine sym pathy Is denied to thoso who take their lives by their own hands. Such a doctrine Is mon strous and preposterous, and at entire variance with the teachings of Christ If one person U more entitled to divine sympathy than an other. It is the person who has been refused human sympathy and encouragement in this world, and proved Inadequate to the battles of life. Evidently the old ecclesiastical tradi tion that a suicide was beyond salvation has no place in Dr. Morrison's creed. And at about the same time Dr. Edgar P. Hill, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of Portland, said at the grave of an agnostic: He knew, no doubt, that he was standing on the threshold of the unknown world, and it may be that even thon out of the haze there were shining the clear rays of the Sun of Righteous ness. And let us trust that now, face to face with him in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge, he Is having ex plained these great questions which for so many years he loved to think about These' two utterances are symptomatic of the religious uplift and outlook of tho age, and show conclusively that the glac ial deposits of bigotry and Intolerance are fast melting away in the bright sunlight of charity and truth. DON'T RUSH INTO CITIES. Country Opportunities Are Large and Tempting-. "It has long been the belief of Mr. Stick, n-ey. the president of the Chicago Great Western Railroad, that the farm life of America has been needlessly somber," writes W. S. Harwood in Alice's Maga zine. "He is a very earnest advocate of a complete ohange in the methods of farm life. He is in favor of creating a little community wherever there are even a half dozen farmers scattered on the wide "Western. prairies. Ho would have these farmers come Into a common community, not in any sense theoretically com munal, but a community for cultivation, for mental advancement, for social prog ress, for tho fostering of the finer and tWe jollier features of life. He advocates the union of these farmers into such a town or community, each one going out from his home In the morning to his field as a city laborer goes out to his work. The houses he would have built at some Intersecting point, which would at all times leave the families of the farmers In Immediate contact Not only would there be a great increase In the satis faction of living, but protection would be insured in the emergencies of sickness, firo and tramps. He would obliterate the Isolation which separates the farmer from the world, and which, if we are to be lieve those who have made a study of the subject, does much to Increase In sanity in rural regions. "Yet on no point is he more strenuous in his writings than on the foolishness shown by intelligent men in flocking to the 'cities for employment in already overcrowded quarters, when the oppor tunities In the country are so large and tempting to the man of clear vision. Here Is a quotation from an address wKch Mr. Stlckney gave some time ago: " To the dogs with the sentimental nonsense that the cramming process of the city schools and the advantages of city churches, which you seldom enter, "are all that makes life llvlnr." and that to remove to the country Is to rob your children of these advanutages. Let la boring men examine the pedigree of the successful business men, the distinguished lawyers, tho leading physicians, the most eloquent clergymen, and almost without exception they are country born, reared nd educated." MANUFACTURED EXPORTS AMERICAN WORKMEJI SEND $1,000, 000 WORTH ABROAD DAILY. Increase in the Fast Five Years Six Times o Great as la Prior Five Years. , WASHING-TON. Nov. 4. Tho American workman Is contributing more than J1.0CO, 000 a day to tho export trade of the United States. The products of American workshops exported during the nine months ending with September, 1900, amount In value to $238,678,343, or consid erably moro than an average of $1,009,000 a day for each day. Including Sundays and holidays. Counting only working days, tho contribution of American work shops and workmen to the export trade, of tho United States averages ?1.EOO,000 dally. This grand total of $338,000,000 of ex ports of manufactures In the nine months ending with September, 1900, is three" times as great as In the corresponding months of 1890, and nearly 2 ttrnoa as great as in the same months of 1S95. In 1890, tho exports of manufactures in the nine months ending with September amounted to $U3,S&9,554; In 1893, they Amounted in the corresponding months to $145,793,884, and in tha same months of 1SC0 they were $338,678,243. This shows a gain of $32,000,000 in the flva years from 1690 to 18X, and of $193,000,000 In the five years from 1893 to 1900. Thus the increase In exports of man ufactures in the five-year period 1S95-190O is six times as great as during the period 1S90-95. Every Industry contributes to this vast aggregation of American manufactures which bring into the United States from other parts of the world more than $1,000, 000 daily. The various manufactures of iron and steel exported in the nine months ending with September last, brought to the United States $97,313,060; the refined mineral oil exported during tho same pe riod brought $32,046,134; copper and manu factures thereof, $46,299,392; wood and manufactures of, $40,353,547; leather and manufactures of, including boots and shoos, $19,870,691; manufctures of cotton, $16,614,906; agricultural Imple ments, $14,396.7S7; chemicals, drugs and dyes. $10,214,414; carriages, cars and other vehicles, $S,214,6S1; paraffin and paraffin wax, $6,024,737; paper and manufactures of, $5,156,915, and manufactures of tobacco, $4,348,306; while hundreds of other articles contribute In sums ranging "from $1,000,000 downward.

WARRENTON. 6r Oct. 31. (To the Editor.) I noticed In The Oregonian re cently an Interview of Mr. Thomas N. Strong, of your city, wherein he attempted to define or explain the meaning or deri vation of the name "Chemawa," believing, as ho alleges, that it Is derived from the words "che wawa," meaning, as he says, "true talk." Not entirely agreeing with Mr. Strong, nor yet meaning any disparagement to his standing as a philologist, but simply believing that I may be able to give a little light on the subject, I am induced to write this communication. "Chemawa" Is a corruption of the name "Chemeewee." The latter Is the Calapoola name of the place where the Rev. Jason Lee estab lished the first Methodist mission In Ore gon, on the east bank of the beautiful Willamette, about 10 miles below Salem, and about a mile or a mile and a half above the old Joseph Gervals place. It is now known as Wheatland. The accent is on the middle syllable of the name. Oly parents were there before Mr. Lee, and they assisted about the mission when it was established, and I have heard them speak of the place hundreds of times, and always called It Chemeewee, the long sound of "e" to the two last syllables. I have seen it stated, and I beheve Mr. Jason Lee was given as authority, that the name meant "Here we rest." It may have meant, "This is our camping place," or "Here Is tho resting place." or "The resting place" simply. But Mr. Lee, after the location of the mission, and hav ing in view, no doubt, the trials, priva tions and marvelous events of their jour ney across the continent, considered per haps that It would bo more In accord with their determination and condition to render it "Here we rest" When the Indian Training School wa3 removed from Forest Grove to Chemawa, its present site, tho matter of the name for the school and site was referred to then venerable Rev. Joslah L. Parrlsh, who -had been a member of tho Methodist mission, coming In 1840. when the mis sion was still at Chemeewee. He was a gentleman of the old school, whose youth and school days were passed at that pe riod in the history of the English lan guage when the long sound of "a" was much more In vogue than at present, and the broad sound was but little or much less used than now. Wishing to com memorate and preserve the Indian name of the site of the first mission in Oregon, he gave the name "Chemawa," never dreaming that the broad sound would be given to the "a" in the two last syllables, but Intending and expecting, without doubt, that tho name would be pro nounced as If spelt "Chemayway," which, I say, would at least be In a measure Idem sonans with the original name. There is an almost universal disposi tion among the whites always to vary a little from the Indian pronunciation of their words even in the most simple of them. Instances of which I could cite without limit, and Mr. Parrlsh was not entirely free from this fault, and varied from "Chemeewee" to Chemayway In the pronunciation of the name. It was published, I think, at tho time of the first opening or dedicatory exercises of the school at Chemawa that Mr. Par rlsh gave that name to perpetuate the Indian nanie of the old mission. I can fur nish tha testimony of living witnesses who were there, even before the estab lishment of the mission, th3t the original name was Chemeewee. Now, with refer ence to "true talk." I am not aware of any word "che," either in the original Chinook or the Chinook jargon, meaning "true." An Indian may say. "Alta. mlk& tlait wawa," meaning, '"Sovr you give a true statement," The "tlait" is from the French "droite" (right), pronounced droo- Downing, Hopkins & Co. Chicago Board of Trade New.

"Tlaaka hlyu tae wawa" ("They are having a lot of sweet talk"). "Chuh-he wawa" Is "new talk," or begin to talk. "Alta. chuh ho neslka. wawa" ("Now we will begin to talk"). I had intended to say something about the name "Champocg." but I will let that pass at this time, and perhaps take it up as a theme for another letter. SILAS B. SMITH. ELECTIONS IN 1900.

Ten, years ago, when the line was being surveyed for, they crawled everywhere. The usual Idea of these carnlvora Is that they are the klngj of beasts; that lions prance and lash tho.r tails, step after a lordly fashion, and are both noble-looking and noble In their habits.

Lions such as I have described prowled around the pioneer camp whenever it halted. Once, when tho pioneers had lit a .fire some fat slices of game wero laid across It on a piece of galvanised I o.i. A loud "hoosh" from a Kaffir roused one of the Englishmen from sleep in time to seo one of these large cats quietly licking up the grease left in. tho Im provised frying-pan. The Kaffir was fTlghtencd; the Uon was much moro so. At the human uproar he slunk away with his tail between his legs, Just as any do mestic pussy would have done If found marauding.

I have found that the addition of a pound of fair quality of moist brown su gar to a horse-feed of chaff and corn doubles Its work-producing power, and that, therefore, tho ordinary feed may with this aid be greatly reduced in weight without proportionally reducing the efficiency of the animal getting it When ho other feed is obtainable, a few pounds of flour, mixed with enough wa ter to make them easily drinkable, have great staying power, but few horseB would take this, howevor hungry, unless they had at some previous time been made accustomed to it. I have known horses, when there was little grass, ha bitually rob tho camp of fresh, salt or dried meat It Is even more certain that no horso would touch flesh, unless at some time accustomed to It. What strange food graminivorous animals will eat, when habituated to It, Is almost be yond belief. In Iceland "horses and cat tle ore frequently fed on dried fish. I have known shoep eat meat, fruit, bread, pastry, and the like, and even tobacco, in considerable quantity, without harm ensuing. During the early times of tho diggings, when gold was being found In large quantities, and horse feed, beyond the grass, was not procurable, many of the rich claim-holders fed the horses, used in their work on the mine, with bread, eooner than suffer delay. Bread, even unleavened, la better food for horses than raw flour and water, but It takes time to prepare, and is rarely avail able in on emergency, whilo Hour is much mere likely to be. In Singapore It is not uncommon for horses to" be -slven a loaf of bread soaked with a bottle of beer, which they eat greedily. a - Not a Visitor. Mrs. Gadd That new minis ter ain't much on vlalttn'.
