Indications of Peace,
Washington, Jan. 18. It Is learned
the Russian government has closed
a contract with the American steel
trust for 90.000 tons of steel rails for
delivery at Vladivostok not later than
the middle of May. It Is said the
first shipment Is already on the way
to Seattle for shipment by Hill's
steamer Minnesota. It Is pointed
out that this amount of rails Is just
the amount needed to construct the
second line to Vladivostok, which
Russia had concluded not to build
as tong as they held Port Arthur.
It Is concluded, therefore, that Rus
sia intends to bring the war to an
end, and It Is believed here that
Roosevelt will soon be requested by
Russia to act as mediator and bring
about this result. This Is only one
phase of the Indications, and the war

evangelist of the general conference
held In Los Angeles last May. This
conference Is the highest body of the
church, und represents the whole de
nomination. Dr. Smith was chosen
from among 17.000 ministers who
belong to this denomination, thus re
ceiving the highest endorsement of
his church.
Some mouths ago, when the local
church began to look for tin evnngel-
lst, Dr. Smith was their choice, but
It wus not thought possible to secure
him, as his time is occupied so fully
law.
Broadly speaking, the bill provides
that whenever the payment of a tax
shall he disputed It must be paid and
suit brought to force the state to
return I ho money. The proposed law
is modeled on u rule of the rullromls
ilieiuuLaLs; that wim n freight bill
Is questioned It must be paid and
redress demanded from the officials
afterwurd.
Several other features of the bill
are drastic in their provisions. For
in the large cities, where ninny I instance, it Is specified that no taxes

movements. But fortunately for our
city, he has decided to give Pendleton
one of his "Ten Day Pentecostal"
periods. Each forenoon from 10 to
1 1 o'clock Dr. Smith will conduct
what is known as a "worker's meet
ing," to which he especially Invites
all ministers and Christian workers
of all denominations.
Dr. Smith has spent many years In
the evangelistic - work, and comes to
us with the best of methods and In
structions. This will he a special op
portunity for i,li workers to reoelve
help for future work. His afternoon
and aveniutf services always prove to
be seasons of great Inspiration and
profit.
Mr. Wall, a commercial salesman
from Heattle, where Smith Is now
holding meetings, said of him: "I
know of no man ih the United States
whose coming to Pendleton would be
a greater blessing to the city than
Dr. Smith's." R. W
may soon be at an end.
