Special meetings will continue at the First Christian churcn an mis wee mt Saturday evening. The people o the Christian church do not claim to be the only christians in Albany. They do hollo, it in ba contrary to the plain teaching of the Bible for God's people to be divided into Beets and parties organ lied and named by human authority. These nameB and human- methods we believe to be hindrances to unity and of no specific value. They ought therefore to be discarded. To cu a man s ' .hintiin m t identify him with Christ To call a church christian has the Bame effect. That, is all ihe identification for which we care, la not tnat sumciBut. i While many Christian people do not A.A with n, n tn the imDortanco of thiB position we gladly co-operate with them in every possible way to advance the cause of Christ and wait for time . to work the change.

Cuktox, THE CITY ELECTION. The annual city election occurred yes terday. Only 473 vo'ea, three or four hundred lees than mual were cast, show ing the lack of interest in theconteit, though as a matter of fact backa were kept mnuning during the day according to custom. The vote was as follows : First ward O. P. Dannals. rep., 107; S. M. Penniogton, deut.. 54. Dannal's majority 53. tieoond ward S. A. Dawson, rep., 92 ; Bowersox, 1 third ward A. W. Boweieox, rep., 144; M. L. Wilmot, iudep., 66. Bower sox mafority.78. Tbe Counoil remains the same as for the past year exsept Mr. Bowertox. Elected Captain. ' The Albany College Foot Ball team yesterday evening elected Alton Ooates captain for next year. Ooates is not only one of the best players on the coast, but the manner in which he bandied the team while acting as captain displayed hia splendid generalship and -capasity for the position. A manager bis not been sleeted, but Kueseit Wallace ia be ing prominently mentioned ae a first oIsbb man for the position. Tbe team waa run during the oast year in a bail ness way by Mr. Thompaon.sa manager, and Mr. Templeton aa captain, while Coach Ewards is considered all right and has a big place in the hearts of not only tbe foot ball men but all tbe students of the college. Last evening the members of the team were given a banquet by the Herald. The City Election. Editor Democrat : . The vote at yesterday's city election was very light. There seems to have been no orgaaized opposition to the sncceBBful .caajdates,' while their sup porters showed considerable activity and evidently spent considerable sums in getting ont tbe vote.. In the second ward there was but one candidate, with hardly half the normal vote polled. The suggestion of the Morning Herald that tne issue was license or no license, sa loon or no saloon, ia not borne ont. by the vote. It may be trne that the conn- oilmen chosen yesterday are in favor of the saloon, but tbey would not nave dared to openly announce tbeir candid acy noon snch a nlatform. Aa a city. we are not proud of our ealoone. We do not boast of them when we advertise Ihe sdvantegeB of our fair city, but pasB them by without comment. In fact, we tolerate them because of tbe revenue they bring into tbe oity treaenry, al though every prinoiple of fair taxation la violated thereby. it is generally agreed that taxes shall be levied accord ing to property, that the rich shall jay in nrooortlon to tbeir nones, tne poor in proportion to their poverty, Bnt the li cense tax levied upon tbe aaloon 4s ul timately borne by its patrons, who are obiefly numbered among the latter class, and the tax ie thoa wrung from those who can leaat afford to pay it, trom homes already poverty-stricken and destitute. When this issue ia presented fairly and squarely to tbe people of Al bany, tbe result of an election will be quite different trom that ol yesterday. A V UIUK. Commencing Tonight.

' There was a reunion at the Jenks ome in Tangent on Thanksgiving day. And it happened on this wise. The '' daughters-in-law, fire in number, pre pared tbeir dinners, and, after chnrch, repaired to tbe home of Mrs, Mary Jenks, tbe mother, and in due time a bountiful dinner waa spread. It was in tended for the reunion of tbe entire family, though all were not present. Mr, and Mis. John Richards and Mr. and Mrs, Obarlei Jenks weie absent, due o distance and sickness. The resident minister and family took their places ia tbe count. This is the mast remarkable iamilv in ' . some respects in the state. The father, James B. Jenks, ot Tangent, died several years ago. rue mother it tbe sister ol M. 0. Calloway of this county and of tbe late Riobard Calloway, of Benton. The family consists of nine eona and one daughter, all grown and living in sight oftueolri borne, except tbe dsughter. all are thrifty, good and successful farmers, handle much mosey, and not one has ever been addicted to a vicious habit. Not a black sheep among them. All are members of tbe churob; all are demoorats. and are libeial with tbeir meanB along tbe lines of a bet'er life. Tbe teaaon tor these thingB Is this . The patents believed tbat character was werth more than money and so lived and taught their children. They made borne more enjoyable than eleewbere. so tbe children preferred borne. Tbe lather made tbte proposition to bis Bona: it tbey woul-1 remain with him until they were twenty-two, he would give them a thousand dollars each, and . then give tbem wageB as long as tbey remained with bjm. Five of the Bons are married. They were happy In their selections. Thirty-two sat at this bountilui table. Tbe point which I wish lo make by this writidg is thia ; If one family can be so raised, might not many more be so raised T ii hub ie due to :the uvea ana teachings bl their parents, are not fear ful responsibilities resting on all parenta. And are not huhdrede of parents in our land responsible lor tne ute-iaiiure oi their ohlldren? Do we not have just sucb children as we raise? P. A. Mobkb. Frank Craw's Escape. From tae Journal.

Before the baplets engineer eould realise where he was going tbe engine crashed through the planking ot the wbarl ana plungea into tbe water.
