Thnt de pends upon what Is meant by the phrase. Save them from what? iFrom hell, or course. Is It. the mission of the church to save souls Irani hell? That depends upon the location of hall, no you mean by hull some placo of tor ment in the next world, or do you mean the tornienf of body, mind and soul that is produced In this world by greed of Rain, and slavish prejudice, and .big otry, and hate, by oppressive monopolies, and corrupting pow er, and bitter poverty? I know there is a hell on earth which man .has made. Here, on this earth, I have witnessed the tor ture of the damned. Let us storm one hell at a time, mid the meanest one first. Itov. Horhert Hlgelow. TO THE SPECIAL SESSION. The big anil little members are get ting out their axes to carve out all their little, selfish laws; the third house force Is lining up to decorate the lobbies and worl; for good or bad, Its -tireless jaws. The mining man trom Similiter, wants the corporation tax law remov ed from o'er the "wild cat" company's head; the foxy railroad lawyer, in a plaintive, pleading warble, begs to class the people's portage witli the dead. O. the Multnomah, member, with, aces up his sleevelets; what, O what, can all his brooding silence mean? Does he seek to knife the tax law? Does he thirst for selfish vengeance? Will he spring upon the state some trick, unclean? There's the statesman from Hills boro, with a hog law for revision hack, back. Into the hazel brush, you go; and the fuming hop polo orntor trom turther up the vallny this Is not the time for hop dreams, you must J;uow. You have pledged to meet and right this law. and then adjourn, Instanter, although the boss for further gore may thirst; the people place a muzzle on your gushing oratory, ' although a score of hot air pipes may burst. You are going hack to remedy your own defenseless blunder. He quick, and know the sovereign people reign; lest the voter in the future recall the spec ial session, and you'll got no chance to "muff the ball" again, Association continues to furnish na good a list of attractions during tho romnlndcr of tho wintor, ns during tho two months just passed, with n vory fow oxcoptlonB, tho financial success of tho thentor for tins year Is yet to come with tho Increased theater pat ronngo of tho noxt throe months. No other city on the coast sIiowb tho Bnme proportionate appreciation of good shows and It tho management cultivates .tho theater-going habit by booking now and novel attractions, and by bringing tho noted performers hero, this appreciation of tile theater will bo Bllmulated, to tho pleasuro of tho patrons and tho success of tho manager. There Is profit In a good theater, rightly managed, hut tho sumo meth od of handling u theater patronage will not apply to Seattle or San Fran cisco and Pendleton. Pendleton will support a larger houso, fitted with more stage room, 'and more theater facilities. It is really tho best business open ing In the city today. The owners of the present houso could rent that building nny moment for other pur poses and a now opora house company would meet no opposition from them. The people of Eastern Oregon are now anxiously waiting to hear the recommendation of the reclamation engineers, who have gono to Washing-, ton to report on tho feasibility of the irrigation plans of- this state. Tho Echo and Sllvles river projects aro the two principal schemes undor advise ment, and the surveys made upon them during the past season havo been exhaustive and thorough, and tho peo ple aro willing to tru,st tho judgment of those In charge. It seems Impossi ble to believe that the government will overlook either of those proposi tions, located as they aro In tho state furnishing more to the Irrigation fund, during the past year, by nearly n mil lion dollars, than any other Western stnte or territory. The results of Ir rigation on all sides of those tracts, arc so highly successful, and the waste water supply so enormous, that It Is only a question of building tho reservoirs ami turning water on tho land. The people will do tho rest. woman's Nature If the people want to know whether It pays to keep politics out of county affairs, let them turn to the present condition of all the county nfilces in Umatilla county. This Is n standing Inducement to this county to steer clear of the politician, and his fac tional and selfish fights. Keep men In otUce wlipsg yfflclcncy and nbillty are Valuable to tho people. It Is safe to say that all tho county offices in this county wore never before occupied at one time by a list of officials whoso business capacity and management equalled that of the present occu pants. There have been scores of good men In all the offices, hut there scorns to bo a greater number of practical men at tho head of (he county affairs now, than over before at one time.

No matter how high tho price, Pen dleton people fill the opera houso 'for .very worthy production that comes along, and for this reason Pendleton people should got the best treatment and recolvti the highest consideration Irom tho theaters.
