In Vts. academic procession was ex-PresKtent J Cleveland. President Wilson, in .the course of his address, said: "The vast accumulations of -wealth, the vast -material equipment of civiliza tion In our day .ought not to mislead us Into supposing that this Is an age gross and material beyond precedent, more de bauched by greed or "intoxicated by ma terial power than any that has gone be fore it It is not "Though Its spiritual impulses and con ccptions and undertakings do not run so exclusively along tho old, hallowed and familiar ways of religion, as Jn some noted days gone by particularly some days that shine bright and illustrious in the early annals of our own Nation the spirit of man has waxed as strong In our time as has his hand, and has given it self to works as mighty and as influ ential. "Many books and homilies have been written for us of late In advocacy of a simple life, .and beneath their sentiment lies a noble and enlightening truth. There Is no virtue in a plainly furnished room; a little circle of employments, a little group of friends is no certain means of grace. The simple grace may be very mean and . bare and unrewarding; and what Is worse. It may bs very selfish and belittling. "Tho kernel of the moral Is, simply that our life is greater than the things that wo handle, and that our life Is In us, not in our possessions or In our social or business engagements." " " After saying that God is abroad and not shut up behind conventional-walls, and "that tho college men, because of their best training, ought to be the best men, and men of God, President "Wilson continued: "It is no doubt ordained that tho world shall be saved, not only by 'the foolish ness of preaching,' but also by the cour age of action and the satisfying nobility of unimpeachable conduct, and colleges cannot make serviceable men unless they make men of brains, also men of principle."

MENACE IN LABOR'S ATTITUDE Dr. Thwlng Fears for Peace and Progress of America. CLEVELAND, June 12. The annual baccalaureate sermon to the graduating classes of Adelbert College and the Col lege for "Women of "Western Reserve Uni versity by President Charles F. Thwlng was delivered tonight In Beckwlth Me morial Church. Dr. Thwlng spoke on the subject, "Tljo Trusteeship of the Gospel." In the course of tho sermon, Dr. Thwlng said: "One of the conditions to which the trusteeship of the Gospel Is to be ap plied Is the subject known as labor and capital. This condition Is most serious. Two elements necessary for tho producing of results of primary value to tho com munity arc In constant or periodic antag onism. Capital at times seems to give ground for the Judgment that nothing is so cheap as human toll and no supply so certain or so large as human life. "On the other band the laborer Is lia ble to bo Jealous of the capitalist. He feels he is not getting his full Increment of the Increasing force of civilization. He feels himself often opposed, cajoled, played with, fooled. He easily becomes an an archist. He sees law breaking at the top and he at the bottom defies the law. Sullen, gloomy, revengeful, he often is. The labor union he uses as a mighty en gine of democracy both against tho capi talist and his brother workman. It is the most Important tool of modern Industry and of modern life. "The first element in the adjustment In the rights and duties of capital and labor Is an understanding of tho rights and duties of both capital and labor." In conclusion. Dr. Thwlng said: "I sometimes fear that forces now active may wreak themselves on tho com munity and again overthrow civilization, as it was overthrown in Southern Europe 1500 years ago. Neither this Nation nor any of the other advanced peoples of the world has any patent right to a constant progress or to a lasting existence." NATION THAT STRIVES.

Yet we stand out ride the realm of ripened wisdom and as surance and stable conviction. "The men of our time are more at tached to expedients than to principles, preferring action to thought; and our generation, so full of life and movement, appears at times to bo 'found nowhere under full sail.' "We have marvelous inventors, but few scientists of the first rank; excellent writers of schoolbooks, few authorities In education; admirable preachers, few the ologians whose voices are heard In Europe; skillful expositors of philosophy, no think ers who rank, with those of lands where thought has tlmo to brood and ripen.

GENERAL HUMPHREY EXPLAINS Did Not Expect Agents of Foreign Vessels Would Hold Them. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, "Wash ington, June 12. Senator Mitchell has re ceived a letter from Quartermaster-General C. F. Humphrey, In further explana tion of his action in awarding to the Boston Steamship- Company tho contract for carrying lumber from Portland to Manila. He calls attention to the law of April 2S, 1904,- which becomes operative June 23, and adds: "Inasmuch as Laidlaw & Co. and Tay lor, Young & Co. offered no American vessels, and the shipments of the lum ber extended beyond June 28, It Is ap parent that this office could not accept either of their bids without violating the law, and for this reason the Boston Steamship Company was requested to sub. mlt rates for the transportation of the lumber In American bottoms, which It did, offering a rate of $10 per thousand feet which is 50 cents per thousand less than their annual contract rate for car rying freight from Puget Sound, and also waived all demurrage for both loading and unloading, all of which constitutes a very valuable concession to the United States. "The provisions of the law requiring this office to accept none "but vessels of American register for the transportation of its freight is as embarrassing and un satisfactory to the Department as to the shipper, and It must be apparent that when Inviting proposals this office could have no knowledege In advance that no American registered vessels would be of fered, and In view of the fact that Messrs. Taylor, Young & Co. limited the time of acceptance of their vessels It was cer tainly not supposed that they would hold them longer than that time for no Un live .Reardon and his men are the county's subpenas servers. He did this on his own Initiative, said Mr. Sandford. ELECTION IN ARGENTINA Manuel Quintana Is President Fig uora Alcorta Vice-President. BUENOS AYRES, June 12.

COLLEGE AND 'TOWN ATTEND Graduating -Class of .Nineteen in . ' Caps and Gowns, Cross the. Chapel and . Become Alumni. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene, Or., June 12. (Special.) Sixteen hundred people, almost half the population of the college town of Eugene, assembled ' in VUIard Hall today to Jiear Rev. "W. S. Gilbert of Portland, deliver the bac calaureate sermon, his subject being, "Can Ye Not Discern the Signs of the Times?" The address was replete with admoni tions to the 19 members of the graduating class, and was highly Instructive and forcefully Impressive. - Friends and patrons of the State Uni versity, graduate and undergraduate stu dents thronged the campus early, and when the time came for the commence ment week exercises to open, Vlllard Hall was filled and many were standing. Prior to the baccalaureate address & special musical programme was delivered under the direction of Professor I. M. Glen, who was congratulated for the success of the opening exercises. Eva L Stinson ap peared in "From Thy Love as a Father," a solo obligato, which was the strongest musical number on the programme. The graduating class, 19 in all, which Is the smallest class the university ha3 grad uated for four years, were seated Just In front of the stage, and It afterwards, at tired in caps and gowns, marched up to be added to the Alumni' Association of the Oregon State University. Mr. Gilbert said in part as follows: . "Even within our memory changes have taken place in all the world's life. So swiftly do changes come that we all have seen how easy It Is for ua to get out of touch with our timer The world does not forgive a man who refuses to move on. Amid all the changes the earnest man wishes to know what the trend is. We can not trace more than one of the many marked signs of our time, and It Is our purpose to inquire as to the trend of modern thought regarding religion. That the people today are more generally religious- than ever before we know full well. The church Is. today reaching the masses "more than ever before. But we wish to inquire only as to the attitude of modern thought "There are some men who have been great thinkers, who have seemingly dis believed in God, or who at least have failed to realize any personal relationship of men with God. The world has had time to scrutinize their teaching. It is difficult to name a recognized thinker of modern times who has not in some way or other conceded the essential claims of religion. "University life may seem rationalistic because of the character of the work In hand. Statistics, however, will show that the trend of student thought Is. toward religion. "In conclusion, Oregon asks that from our university men and women shall come forth who shall lead. So to us much is given, and the man who thinks will rec ognize hi3 resultant duty." ADDRESS PACIFIC UNIVERSITY Dr. E. L. House Speaks to Students and Church Members. PACIFIC UNIVERSITY. Forest Grove, Or., June 12. (Special.)

There were also several anthems by the church choir. Then Dr. House spoke, choosing as his subject "The Supremacy of Heart and Intellect," and his address was full of deep thought He spoke of the great won ders man has accomplished In solving the mysteries about him, and of the many secrets of Nature remaining that we can not understand. But the present age Is an Intellectual age; we have accomplished more along every line in the last 600 years than had been accomplished in all the centuries before. And as this intellec tual progress goe3 on, Christianity ad vances, atheism is no longer condoned. "With it have gone traditions, dogmas and superstitions, and in their place stands Christianity, unchanged and unchanging. "The selfish searcher does not find God, but he who throws himself unselfishly Intd the search for truth finds God; he must search for him with love, for God i3 love. The only wisdom of the age3 Is that of God. The only teachings which have stood the test of time are those which are In accord with the Divine," said Dr. House. The speaker also urged the necessity of seeking God early, before the habits of life are formed. The most lasting be liefs are those which are formed in youth. Religion Is the result of experience, and. he who has his life founded on a relig ious growth has an Impenetrable defense. "With a few words of encouragement and advice to the members of the gradu ating class. Dr. House concluded Tils ad dress.
