Sentiment and Principle.
-A
Will M. Peterson, the well known
uttoruey ia tbe newly elected chairman
01 me Democratic conuty central com
tmUeoy" In a letter addressed to detn
ooiatiof the connty, Mr. Peterson
voices tbe sentiment and principles
of too party as follows:
The salotary principles of our pri
maiy election law are meeting with tbe
hparty approval of all parties, especi
ally tbe great mass of tbe common
peoplo. and tbe "boss," the "jobber,"
tbe "political trickster" in Oregon
politics is notioeably getting to be a
tbing of the past.
An era of good, clean, wholesome
government In which all of tbe people
are at liberty to take an aotive part is
now at onr service. Bat political
parties are very essential, nnder onr
system of governrreut, and democracy
must continue to play its part; this is
why,-at tbis time, in this county, we
are seeking to have a genoral meeting
of tbe varions committeemen and
democrats in general on tbe aforesaid
date.
We must understand each other;
must know wbere we are, and as long
as I am ohairm an of the central com
mittee no "jobs" shall fee prt np; no

Uncoufessed sin ia one of tbe most
serious impedimenta in tbe way of
Boui-winnlng. It burdens tbe con
science, chills tbe heart, haunts the
mind, of ends God cutting oS the com
munication of Spiritual Power, not
only disqualifying for winning souls,
but often, eventually leads away from
Christ altogether. Tbe army of Israel
was not victorious nntil tbe sin of
Achau bad been confessed. Bead
Josb. 7, 19-26.
Some are covering secret sins, try
ing to bide unchristian tempers, nntil
they are barren of spiritual usefulness.
True there are certain legitimate aeo
rots for individuals, families and na
tions, some of which bad mnoh better
be held than openly declared,
against which I say nothing: "But
be that coveretb bis sins shall not
prosper," Pro v. 28, 13.
A man, a prominent christian, one
of tbe officials, took au active part in
a revival in bis own Cbnrob. He said
to another, "I do not understand wby
I do not have more courage and power
to speak to meu about their souls."
That very day be Spirit of God smote

of strength. . It is never otherwise.
Without unity there can be no real co
operation, without both there oan be
no real success in any enterprise, but
especially so in Christian effort. In
any community, where professed
Christians will be of one mind and
heart and soul in desiring a real revi
val, and each one willing to do bis,
or her, part, with right motives and
for right ends and in tbe right spirit,
following God-ordained methods, a
real Bible revival is inevitable. But
there can be no spirit of successful
evangelism in a Church where feuds,
baokbitings, biokerings and things ex
aggerated and imagined exist Christ
ian people of intelligence certainly
ought to, and absolutely must, if they
expect success in building np their
Church, rise in nobleness of life above
snob weak, harmful, Christless and
degrading things. Please read Rom.

people marched side by side, band in

long earnest seeking tbey found the
little one almost gone. Tbey took her
