A ll communications should be addressed to ie PRESS Athena, Oregon ATHENA, JANUARY 17, 1905 Dr. Lyman Abbott, clergyman, law yer, author and editor of Outlook, who in a sermon to Harvard students an nounced bis belief in a religion founded not on the bible, but on science, and the and the outreachings of the heart, is nearly 70 years old and has spent nearly his entire lifetime in the study of relig ion and writing of his conclusions. Or dained a Congregational minister in 18G0, he has preached in many of the famous pulpits of America, succeeding Henry Ward Beecher as pastor of Ply mouth church, Brooklyn, in 1888. He resigned ten years later to devote bis energies to literary work. Among his work are "How to Study the Bible," "Life of Christ," and "The Theology of as Evolutionist." Senator Heyburn has introduced a bill for the entrymen on lands proposed to be irrigated under the reclamation act and unable to cvltivate the same, and to provide means of support pend ing the building of irrigation works. The bill recites that qualified entrymen who have heretofore or shall hereafter make bona tide entry upon lands to be irrigated under the reclamation act may, upon application and showing that water is not available for the irrigation of said lands, obtain leave of absence from their entries for a period not to ex ceed six months during one year, until water for irrigation is turned into the main canals on the land to be irrigated.

Count Okuma is free to tell bis countrymen that they must expect to spend at least 81,000,000,000. The taxes will be piled on the people, inter national improvements will be stopped, even popular education is to be curtail ed. In Russia the same procedure will take place, causing even greater distress to the nation. And this is glorious war. Of course the immigration commiS' sioner'e fear of an influx of Japanese immigration after the war may be well founded, but just now it looks as if by the time the war is over they will have considerable additional room of their own in which to spread out. The German emperor has just unveil ed another statue of ono of his ances tors. Let us hope that his ancestors and the sites for statues of them may never be exhausted. William might be doing much worse things than unveiling statues. A New York policeman recently made 8200,000 speculating in real estate. Ho should be advised to watch out for large, flashy-looking women who approach with notes from Andrew Carnegie If John Barrett bus to pay $13 apiece for shirts in Panama, ailow your imag ination to dwell for a moment on the probable price of a shirt that would fit Secretary Taft.
