' Beginning with this number. The Bulletin will be issued here after on Wednesday afternoon in lead of Friday as heretofore. There arc many reasons that induce us to make the change. Wo have always liked Wednesday as a pub' iicatiou day; and furthermore, as mail schedules now exist, it will enable The Bulletin to reach its subscribers in much better time than under a Friday publication. It will also give our advertisers better results, as it will allow our readers more time to get the paper and read the store bargains offered before doing their Saturday's shopping. Hence, Bulletin readers aay look hereafter for their paper on Wednesday afternoon. Ths Quintessence of Foolishness. The Bulletin is well aware that it is a dangerous policy to discuss religious topics, but it has had something working iu its inner brain cells for so long that it needs roust give utterance to what is bothering it. And it is about the question of so many church organ izatioos in Bend. How foolish it is to attempt to maintain three separate church or ganizations in Bend. How much more reasonable would it be for the Protestant denominations to unite en seme one man, -good and able, and let him devote hb entire time to the one field. As it is now we have three the Methodist, the Presbyterian and the BaptUt. At stated intervals Rev. I.owther, from his bone somewhere about Trail crossing, drives a distance ot 25 or 30 miles in order to preach at Bend on the Sunday alloted to him; on another Sunday of each month Rev. Moore likewise drives some 30 or o miles from his homestead near Prinev'ilfc toliold services at Bend; and UcV. Mitchell oscillates be tween Bend and Rusland in his en deavor td preach the gospel at dif ferent points. And what is the result? Bend is ;ivcn a church service that amounts almost to nothing as far as direct results are concerned. With three .nen preaching from the same pul pit, with three separate organiza tions endeavoring to keep up the work," and with three preachers UirccVng this work, how can thtre be anything but mighty poor re turns for the effort expended? To accomplish results there must of leccssitv be one mind at the head .f the work td control and direct it. BedU'Bas a mixture of three. -Kd thht' is not the only trouble. Thejt 'mm raust live.

Thus these men are disgusted with the church s on institution and a good cause is done far more harm than good. This condition of affairs would be bad euough if there were much .1 -..!:,. Tin hnw much worse must it be when th& actual ood accomplished is very small in-1 deed. The Bulletin docs not mean to state that the church iu Bend is not accomplishing good. It would never do to step till church work But much more uood could be ac complished tlitm is now being done. J Willi the thrse organizations and with lite . work going in a sort of "hit and miss" style, there is not much interest manifested iu the services by the public. The nttrtul auce is .woefully small. Where there should be n church lull every Sunday listening to able and help ful sermons, there arc now, on an average, from half a dozen to two dozsn persons present. Fifty peo ple in attendance would be consid ered a very large congregation. There is no man statioucd at Bend to keep the work going during the wcvk, and the sum and substance of it all is that we have three meu driving long and tiresome distances on starvation wages to preach to a handful of indifferent people. How utterly silly itall is. And with what disgust mu3t the good Lord look upon such misguided efforts to serve Him and His cause. How much better would it be for the people of Bend to unite on sonic able man, pay him a living salary, and let him devote all his energies to this one town 'and vicinity. We would then have energetic church work and well attended services; the bt:rest would be kept aroused aud vigorous under one man's con stant direction; and people would not be tired and disgusted by pn attempt to support three organiza tions iu a town so small that one would be a great plenty. Yc, that would be much better. But The, Bulletin does not expect to see such. a stale of affairs come to pass. As long as human nature is constituted as it is, the denomi nations will continue to struggle for a starvation existence, aud Bend will coutiuuc to be given three or more sickly church organizations; at least, until the town becomes large enough to give them a proper support. A I'leasinz Innovation. Mxlru Tteimr. For the first time in a good many years a county judge has paid an official visit to this end of the coun ty, and the interest displayed can not but be pleasing to the residents of a district so long neglected. This sectiou has a right to expect to be treated as a part of Crook county, although long neglect had almost weaned it from that idea Nouc the less pleasing, however, is the innovation inaugurated by the new county board in making c trip through this section fur the pur pose of getting better acquainted Much benefit will result from a closer acquaintance of county offi cials with all sections of the county.

One evening shortly licfore they left two hunters came into town with an ex press wagon loaded down with dttrks, most of them mallard drakes, the result of one day's hunting. Dr. P. II. Dencer has n peculiar horse on his ranch This animal has taken upon ibelf the care of n cow, aud regularly each morning drives it to pasture, and brings it back to the barnyard each evening. As regular as noon comes the horse also drives the caw up to the wate--ing place, whether Iwssy wants to drink or not. Aud sometimes she doesn't want to go, aud then is when the fun begins. The cow re bels, the horse insists, and after mote or less of a shirmMi the cow is always forced to surreuikr, and is ('riven to the watering trough.
