s recalling the example of the illus
trious sage, teachers a4d student alike
will hold that the chief end of all learn
ing, the main object of all education Is
right conduct, &nd that the highest mani
festation of right conduct is justice,
"Side by aide with the work of educa
tion shall that of religion proceed. Un
mistakable Indications seems tc leave no
room to doubt that If the church
Protestant or Catholic would retain Its
position as a controlling factor in shap
ing the actions of men, it must place itself
In the forefront of that longing for eco
nomic justice which Is now so powerfully
sgitating the masses. They mistake the
temper of the times, they fail to rate at lta
proper value the Intellectual development
brought about by universal education, who
fancy that the minds of the multitude
can. long continue to be entertained, or
the yearning of their hearts be satisfied
with theological disquisitions about con
troverted dogmas, or the pageants of cere
monial worship. The people will no longer
believe that the paramount function of
lellgion Is to prepare men for the life to
come. They will insist that its office Is
to help them to right living in the life
this side the grave. Thp downtrodden and
the oppressed will refuse to assent to the
doctrine that to bear wrongs without a
murmur is meritorious in the sight of
God, or that the sufferings, of this life con
stitute the surest title to everlasting Joy
in heaven. The 50th century will cast
aside these doctrines as the false teach
ings of a past age an age when the
church derived its support from the favors
of a triumphant militancy, taught the
divine right of Kings to reign, and, on
condition of becoming a partaker in their
rule, helped Princes to keep their peoples
In subjection by inculcating the doctrine of
submission to authority. One more, as
as In the days of the apostles and the
martyrs, the true nature of Christ's mis
sion upon earth shall stand revealed,
Once more, his teachings disentangled
from the encumbering casuistry of
schoolmen and the subtleties of theolog
ians, will bo understood in their true and
sublime simplicity. Once more his gospel
will be known tp be the gospel of hu
manity, his kingdom the brotherhood of
man, and his rule the power of eternal
love and eternal justice.
"And ao, through the enlightenment of
the intellect, and the purification of the
heart, will justice be established among
the nations of the earth. And so peace
shall be proclaimed between the contend
ing hosts of capital and labor, on that
day when, not only upon the frieze of the
Courthouse, in the Valley of Santa Clara,
but over the entrance of. every school,
college and university, and above the por
tal of every chapel, church and cathedral
shall be Inscribed the legend, 'Justltlae
Dcdicara and when even thu,s,,by a com
mon and universal impulse of mind and of
heart, of reason and of sentiment, they
shall all In the cause of humanity be
equally devoted, dedicated and conse
crated to justice."

It had gone forth to the wprld tha,t Port

BOOMING THE 1005 FAIR.
Mr. Merrill Back From a Trip of Bx
plpttatlon to Ncf&hhorlng- Cities.
Councilman Fred T. Merrill, with his
secretary, R. Lee Ijaros. returned last
evening from a two weeks' visit In Spo
kane. Seattle and Tacoma. Mr. Merrill
had much to say about his trip. In the
following vein:
"I have just returned from a trip to
Pugct Sound and Spokane, where
I have bew preparing for trade for the
season of 1C02. and Incidentally advertis
ing the 19(5 fair. Of course, I have never
failed to speak of the many goodpolnts
of my oVa city, but I am here to say
to ou that Portland Is' not in It' with
Seattle or Spokane when It comes to
improvements and seypral other matters.
and tho people of Portland will have to
wako up or they will get lost in 4he
sh'jffie and the other cities in the North
west will receive more benefit from our
1905 exposition than wo will receive at
home.
"1 was quite surprised at the miles, of
new asphalt and other street paving
that have been laid in Spokane in the
past tix months, and Seattle is fairly
outdoing herself in Improving her streets
In every direction, and her beautiful
firebaat would do credit to a much!
larger d.y.
"There Is another noticeable fact in
these cities that when the Mayor. Coun
sel! and the city government decide to.
mane improvements in any certain dl
rectlozf, they go ahead and do It, and do
not allow every old calamity howler and
mossbzek to file a remonstrance. Then,
ago In. the Mayor and the City Council
run the affairs of the city, and do not
allow themselves to be dictated to; and
they have come realize that they can
not stamp out gambling and other vices
that necessarily exist in every growing
city. So they are doing the next best
thing regulating them, and at the same
putting from $00,000 t6 $100,000 per year
in the city treasury, thereby cutting
do.wn some of the Interest on their bond
ed Indebtedness and miking the burdens
of the. taxpayer lighter.
"If Mayor Rowe would take my
advice he would compel some of the
politicians and the municipal government
to show their hand at this lime. There
Is not a more moral man in the City of ,
Portland than Mayor Rowe, and he does i
not believe in gambling or other similar (
vices, uut lie is aware uuu iney will
Still exist, and if not with open doors
it will be behind barred doors and in
smoky back rooms. When men want to
gamble, they will find a way of doing
It. So why not regulate It and let the
poor shopkeepers, taxpayers and business
men generally receive a benefit from it,
and let Portland grow to 150,000 people
before the 1S05 fair, Instead of drying it
up and making It a mossback town,
when it should be a flourishing metro
politan city?
"While attending a social in Spokano
a few evenings ago I 'was called upon
to make a few remark?, which I at
tempted to do, taking Portland and the
1905 celenrs tlon as my subject. I stated I
that Portland had on her wir paint to
make this 19-33 fair the grandest exposi
tion ever given west of the Missouri
River: that the hustlers wero already at
work and that the remainder of the pop-
ulatijn weuld fall In Hnewhen they were
.iuru upuii. u UBt tjiuti a. iua.ii 111 ixio i
back of the room, In a bass voice,' re- .
merkf J, 'Yes, and while you and a few j
men are doing the hustling, the balance i
of Portland will be mildewing,' and 1 1
And thai Is about the opinion the ma- i
jority of the live citizens of the other
cities entertain towards our beautiful
City of Portland.
"And, by the way, speaking of a beau
tiful city, It Is a strange coincidence thai
While ordinances are being introduced
Into our City Council to cut down the
beautiful shade trees of our city, the
Spokane Council Is passing ordinances
to purchase thousands of trees to beau
tify tho city, and has already received
two monster carloads of them. I will
be satisfied to see some of the trees and
stumps In the business center of Port
land cut down, but will never be satis-
fled to have the beautiful shade trees i
of Portland removed, for they are onr
of the many attractions of our city and ,
will always remain a source of wonder
ment to the thousands and thousands of
visitors coming to Portland in the next
few years, after traveling through the
many barren cities and states on their
way to the Coast.
"I have assured them that the people
of Portland are standing splendidly to
gether In their determination to make It
an exposition that will attract attention
the world over, and that It will go
through with a whoop and a hurrah.
"I shall remain In Portland probably
for the balance of this week, and will
then start with my wife for Chicago, New
York and other Eastern points, and dur
ing our journey will leave no stone un
turned to boom our coming 1905 cen
tennlal.'' While gone Mr. Merrill was Interviewed
at length by the Tacoma Ledger on the
prospects of the fair.

General Index in tHo TentK Volume. -
The editors have given to the subject of an Index the close attention which
this Important feature demands; and the have picparcd an Analyt.cal Index
With a special view to three things simpllolty, accuracy and compreht-nsslvencss.
It has been found that a number of Indices relating to various parts of the
same speech wore confusing rather than helpful. For th's reason attention has
been concentrated upon ono general Index which embodies in alphabetical order
every name and subject contained In tho entire work, together Tilth many hading
topics that rnlght bo chosen for study. In thli way It bzcomes at once an Index
and a Concordance. Each general -title. as "Art," "Science." or "Literature" wllj
be foufed to Include references to every after-dinner speech, address, lecture, or
anecdote bearing on that particular topic. Tho alue of this arrangement to stud
ents and prospective speakers must be obvious. They are enabled at a glance
to obtain a cyclopedic grasp of the whole subject. Cross-references are minute
and exhaustive, If further study on a gjven line is dcilied.
Great attention has been
paid to the selection and re
production Qt the IULUS
TIvATIONS. They are exe
cuted In photogravure full

STRICTURES ON SCHLEY.
Correspondent Say He Is a Well
Meantna Failure.
ST. PAUL, Minn,. Nov. 14. (To the Ed-
Itor.) You will doubtless recognize the
following:
Hiq "MiKtnkc," Glorious.
Doubtless, Schley made mistakes In May and
June pf 1S0S. Wo all make mlaukes, which
we rup Jn bitterness and tear?. Tho careers are
few that can stand unblemished In the nerce
light of searching and hostile Inquiry, but euch
mistakes as thoec he made scorn to hae been
those divagations of dlsoernmcnt which expe
rienced judges as well as the universal senti
ment of humanity forgive and forget If proved
to havo been Incidental only to the impulsive
promptings of a sound heart, steadfast and
true. Such, for loyalty and fidelity, bravery
and tenderness-, was the hero of Santiago's na
ture, such were his mistakes. They are crowns
of glory, services and sacrifices, achievements
and error- all, -compared with the envy and
jealousy that have hounded him to this closing
act In his Ions life of heroism and honor. In
Mr. Radnor's panegyric the country wU join,
and not only thin country, buj. tne hearts of
brave mtn and devoted women, wherever his
story Is told. The mistake he did not make
was that of being cowardly. and ungenerous,
and for that, moro grJevous In Judicious eyes
than anything charged against him. his critics
must answer In the court of mankind. Port
land Oregonlan. ,
So we are to understand that, if a man
I be but physically brave and have ensag-
I ins personal qualities, he Is to rank high
among our country's heroes, no matter J
what bungling and Incompetence may be i
justly laid to hl3 charge. It is easy to
picture to oneself your roll pf fame:
Horatio Gate3, General "Wilkinson, Georgo
B. McCIclIan. B. F. Butler. N. P. Banks.
KS.4
Rosecrans, Don Carlos Buell and all the
rest of the well-meaning failures.
Schley was more lucky than they be-
cause a competent man came to tho res-
cue and retrieved his blunders before it
was too late. If General Grant or Ad-
miral Farragut had ever had the mlsfor-
! ,tune t0 send Jn a nastily-written dispatch
in a moment when 'a thousand urgent
matters were pressing upon their attcn
tlon, and failed to give due credit to ev
ery subordinate concerned In an affair,
they woqld, according to your logic, havo
been "cowardly and ungenerous" and en
titled to no credit for their great services.
it would be interesting to know Just
how you arrive at your conclusion that
Schley's vaccillatlon, disobedience and
general incompetence, displayed up to the
time of Sampson's arrival off Santiago.
were incidental only 'to the "generous
promptings of a sound heart." This at-
tempt to manufacture a hero out of an
Incompetent, because ha hannPnrf to hn
on hand to share in the successful out
come of another's brilliant planning. Is
