At the meeting of Pomona Grange, Patrons of Husbandry, of Clackamas County, to be heia in Park place, Wednesday, April 12. an- effort will be made to dispose of the wagon which was awarded Clackamas County Grangers at the meeting of the National grange In Portland last Novem ber for best exhibit. Tho wagon was a donation by Studebaker Bros., as was supposed at tho time, for the best indi vidual grange exhibit, but, Instead, the wagon was awarded to the entire county, with the result that it has been a subject of contention ever since. Around this solitary wagon has been waged a con stant warfare at the meetings of Pomo nas and in the subordinate granges, and yet there has been no solution to the knotty problem. Some of the granges want the wagon sold, and the money used to start a fund with which to buy ground and establish a permanent meeting place for Pomona Grange, but this plan does not suit the other granges.

We are unwilling to let pass the an nouncement of your retirement from the office of secretary of the State Board of Health without a public acknowledgement of the debt of gratitude which the commun ity owes you.

George Terry Morris, writing in the Boston Transcript of the special purpose and work of Rev. Charles Stelzle, now among the revivalists at Portland, intro duces the subject by saying: "Tne Presbyterian Church is identified In the popular mind with a system of the ology that Is somewhat out of date; and as the sects go It Is a conservative body. But it deserves credit for more enter prise than any other denomination In this country in two important particulars. It first picked out a largo-callbred college man, fresh from successful administra tion of student activities, and set him at work as a junior secretary of a board of foreign missions, ho first mastering their history and philosophy, and then becoming a burning advocate and champion of the cause, not only among young people, but on every missionary platform of this country among Protest ants. Robert Speer today is ono .of the most Influential, eloquent and thoroughly equipped missionary statesmen of his time, and the Presbyterian denomination has reaped richly because of his efforts in Its behalf. "More recently the Presbyterian Church has entered on another phase of pjoneer work among Protestant denominations, and again enlisted a youth by its appoint ment of Rev. Charles Stelzle, as an official of the denomination operating under the control of Its Home Missionary Society, whose special mission It Is to enlist the laboring men of the country In Christian work." From this introductory statement the writer proceeds: "In the light of the al leged or actual alienation of the wage earners of tho country from the Protest ant churches, Mr. Stelzle's appointment is peculiarly Interesting. For he was a workman from the tlmo he was 11 until a few years ago; he has done time in a machinist's shop; he knows the conditions of modern Industrial life from practical experience of them; and he neer has got very much if at all removed from tho artisan's standpoint. When the time came that ho felt that ho must enter the Chris tian ministry It was only with the Idea of beginning an apostolatc to the masses, and after a successful pastorate In a St. Louis church where his people were resi dents of the factory districts, he w?a called up higher to his present executive and quasi-episcopal place. Neither in at tire nor manner does he suggest the pro fessional preacher of the Gospel. He Is jolly wheh need be. sober when sobriety Is in order. Today ho may be expounding to a presbytery or to a ministers meet ing the essentials of trades-unionism in which he believes: tomorrow he will be dealing with Socialists. Anarchists, single taxers" atheists, on some street corner. or in a public hall, or at a session of a labor1 union, which, as a trades-unionist, he is permitted to attend. His mission Is to interpret the church to the trades union and the trades-union to the church, and in this -work he has the sanction of the Home Missionary Society of the Presbyterian Church and Its general as sembly. As he goes about he arranges, if nosslble and he has succeeded in six cities In getting ono member of a min ister's association elected a fraternal dele gate of the 'local allied labor council. and vice versa, a representative of the labor unions Is given the privilege of the ministers' meetings." When called to a community by local pastors to consult with thorn as to meth ods to "be adopted, Mr. Stelzle first ar ranges for conferences between clergy men and such wage-earners as may be in the churches. After a careful survey of the situation, plans for action arc mapped out, and he remains on the ground until tho schemes adopted have been tried and his expert advice has been tested. His plan of campaign Includes two differ- THE NEW CHAPLAIN OF THE SEAMEN'S INSTITUTE, THIS CITY, AND IN CHARGE OF (MISSION WORK TO SEAMEN, PUGET SOUND PORTS REV. A. K. BERNAYS.

England, and was educated at Elstree Hill School, which was founded by bis father. Rev. L. J. Bernaya. A graduate of Kebte College. Oxford. England. where he took a degree as nrst-class In modern history. Rev. A. E. Berncys was afterward for -0 years one of the Government Inspectors of , school In England. He came to this country In 1S0S. Mttllng for a short time at Chicago, where he studied at the University of Chicago. He wan then appointed pro fessor of German. Frenoh and history at Albany College. Albany, Or., and In 190102 was a member of the faculty of the BUhop Scott Academy, in this city, and was also assistant to Rev. C C. Bruce, at the Seamen's- Institute. In February. 1903. Mr. BernayA went to Tacotna to establish a seamen's- Institute there, and the insti tution was opened five months afterward, euccesfi marking Its work. Mr. Bemays was chaplain there, and also superintendent of mission work among seamen in Puget Sound ports. In April, 1004, he was ordained to the priesthood of the Protestant Episcopal Churoh by Right Rev. F. W. Keator, btahop of Oljmpla. and In January. 1905, was appointed curate of Grace Protestant Episcopal Church, San Franclcor and assistant chaplain at the Seamen's Institute In that city. On the departure of Rev. C. C. Bruce for England, last month, Mr. Bemays succeeded him In the mission work here. Mr. Bernays has a genial, pleasant manner, and Is very popular among his associates He speaks German and -French fluently, and expects to find a knowledge "of these languages ureful In his work along Uie river front. Mr. Bernaya has two sons and two daughters.

But he would have this done witnout any accentuation of class distinctions, and h has nn n tnr "missions" sunnorted by churches of the well-to-do In humbler quarters of the city. Such religious or ganizations as exist anywhere should be churches, and nothing less. In an interview, Mr. Stelzle, after his return from Colorado, where he had been studying the labor situation, said that Socialism is increasing among the workingmen of the West faster than Easterners realize. Jn uoioraao, lor in stance, the Issue, as he discovers it, is nnt unionism but Socialism: and the strife has entered many churches, officials dif fering fundamentally on tne issues in volved. For thousands of workingmen PoHnllsm has become a substitute for the church, the idealism of the earthly propa ganda taking tne piace oi wie visions aim Ideals of the religious faith. This Mr. ctoiTin hns ietpA not onlv bv word of mouth conversations and by hearing the speeches of orators, but by a careful poll through correspondence of the leaders among the Western labor leaders. He finds that they are sending aoout tne country as organizers and agitators men who were formerly ministers In Protes tant churches or who were Roman Cath olic priests, who will use the religious terminology and appeal to the religious mnHvec hut to tho find that an earthly Utopia may be set up, and without any reference to tne uie oeyona me Rra.v;.

A Few Facts That Will Interest the Property - Owners and the General Public The Oregon Auto-Despatch is the pioneer in Its line of business in the United States. "While electric trucks have been used for handling freight by large wholesale houses in the East, and have also Jrten used by transfer com panies In addition to horse-drawn ve hicles, yet this is tho first company to engage In the business of transporting freight and passengers by means of self-propelled vehicles. The general public, of course, is in terested in any new enterprise but property-owners who have had to pay for several renewals of pavements on our principal streets are especially interested in the success of this enter prise. All of theso vehicles have solid rubber-tired wheels, which are nine Inches in width on the largest trucks and consequently do no damage what ever to the pavement, even when car rying the heaviest loads, as the chjef damage to pavements, particularly asphalt, 13 the result of abrasions be gun by the sharp calks of horse's shoes and Iron tires of wheels. Storekeepers with stocks of goods subject to damage from dust are also benefited, as much of tho dust comes from horse droppings which be come pulverized, by constant travel. The ammonia from this is also thought to be one of he chief causes of the rapid deterioration of asphalt. The carrying capacity of these trucks has not yet been fully tested. A few days ago, one piece of machinery six feet high, six feet wide and 13 feet long. weighing 12 tons, was taken on one truck from the dopot to Its destination at Seventh and Aider streets in seven minutes. The company is also preparing to'go into the passenger business, as they al ready have two coaches here and an other en route, which will carry 24 passengers each. They will handle passengers from down-town to the Ex position grounds, giving them an op portunity to viow the city as thoy go to and from the Exposition. The original capital stock was 530,- 000.00 fully paid up, and was increased a few days ago to $50,900.00, a portion of which has boon subscribed byj)res- ent stocknoluers, and the balanco will probably be taken soon. The charging station, at Fifth and Hoyt streets has a 45-horse-powcr motor-generator set and Is now ar ranged to charge six vehicles at one time, and by running the necessary wires, 12 vehicles can be chargod at once, provision having been made for thisi number in the original plans. ic is prooaDie mr.i several private electric vehicles will be on our streets this season and tho Oregon Auto-Des patch has provided facilities for charging batteries of such vohlcles. It is said by exports that the charg ing: station (the French name 13 "Ga rage") of this company is the best one In the United Slates, belnp larger, more roomy, no posts in the way and In every way better arranged. Vehicles come In at the side door on Hoyt street, are run on cement wash racks, thoroughly cleaned and are then run to their station whero a movable plug connects them with the switch-board.
