ProlmMy no ity of , its si.e has inore accomplished musicians, and certainly none lias more lovers of good music. Our musical talent litis been proven in numerous operas, lint it was not until the formation of the .Medfortl Choral society a year ago that means wore found for adequate development. One of Portland's best-known musicians, AY. I?. Bour don, musical director of the Apollo elub, attended one of the recent rehearsals of tho society and declared that this city was in a class by itself and entitled to the blue ribbon, andtbat not even 'Portland or Kan Francisco could boast of an organization its equal. t is scarcely a year since a few enthusiasts met at the homo of George Andrews, who years ago won national fame as an opera star, and laid the foundation on which there now promises to arise, if indeed it has not already very largely arisen, a superstructure which may bring Medford as much publicity as its climate aud its fruit. This organization hicks only one tiling to make it talked of from the border to Mexico, and even to the far east, and that is whole-hearted public support aud appreciation. AVith litis condition assured there is the certaintv that there will come to this eitv in lival of music, eovering several ... , , as soioisis, such as mis made many oi mo ciues ol tiie mid dle west and the east famous.. The forthcoming concert to be given on November 28 in the Page theater will be the event of the winter, and should be supported with unstinted heartiness by the peo ple of .Medford. The Choral society has trebled in mem bership and now numbers 120. It will be accompanied by a full orchestra. Jt; is an opportunity for the people of Medford to show their public spirit, nn-opportunity that should not be missed. On this depends future development and festival plans, and we believe so much in the sound ness of the heart of the people of this city and of the valley that Ave expect not a seat will be vacant." RAILROAD A X organized assault is being made by the railroads, not only upon the eight-hour day, but upon state regula tion and control. Aggregations of railroad attorneys and spokesmen and affiliated interests are, shoutinrr lone and loud to put the forty-eight, state railroad commissions out! of business and consolidate railroad control under the sin gle interstate commerce commission. The theory looks reasonable at firet glance. Examin ation, however, shows that the railroads want: First Federal incorporation of railroads, which would remove, from state .jurisdiction any corporations so incor porated; and throw into federal instead of state courts legal (iiest ions affecting their acts. Slate courts are elected by the people, while federal courts have no local responsibility. Uailroad acta directly affect the life of the people. Second l?ailroads propose the creation of two federal commissions instead of one interstate commerce commis sion one of these, the "federal railroad commission," a court of last resort to appeal from the decisions of the in terstate commerce commission.' This is Tail's commerce court fiver again. It. was abolished because it decided everything for the railroads. Third The railroads propose that the interstate com merce commission shall work through a series of "regional boards'' located in all parts of the country, empowered to deal with local rate questions. These regional boards would do the work now done by state boards, but they have no local responsibility to the people of the communi ties in which they fix rates, as the state boards have. The plan is not favored by the interstate commerce commission. It is opposed by the state railroad commis sions, which claim it would be harmful to the interests of the public. The people are not clamoring for it, only the railroads are anxious for it for their own convenience. It may be that a system Honor tlian tin present joint but the plan outlined by the railroads dues not seem much better for anyone but the railroads. The Drift of Science Hy llt. J.

It Is only a short time a no (lint our own eminent astronomer. Prof. Karkin. made this oh.servation: "If t.; now u full year sinep nny book, pamphlet or letter has heeu received hero conlainiiiR nru.inontn naainst the M'lcntlilc ner.esf.it y for the rxist-ani-p of Creator to Recount tor the iiniv'iT.

And Science knows that thU Power is Mental, is (iod. and whope wiijn are past rinding out."

Cod. j The uuthor of "The I'nseen I'nl vi rse". says: "As far ns we can jtide 'the xlsihle universe, the universe of worlds, Is not eternal, while. Iiowovor Mho Invisible thiivcrsc i.s necessarily ! eternal." Sir William Hamilton In hie great work on Metaphysics sa: "All that thriii is now actually of existence. In tho universe, we consider ns lu.ving virtually existed prior to the creation of the Creator." Joseph Cook in his lecture on Uiolosy says: "Matter Is an influence of h divine nature und the universe is ono in its present ground of existence and In the final eniiM' Kvoii prof ItH'Vkel. despite what ho has advanced In hih repent novel "Kterulty" against the belfef of the church, and he is the only scientific authority living thut represents the scepticism of the past, but no longer in his influence felt, neither Is he quoted In the halls of science, is eom (lled to admit in his I If "lory of Crea tion: "That most naturalists of the present day are inclined to give up the attempt to explain of the genesis of life, and take refuge in the miracle oT lriconeeivit!ir creation." Prof 1UU in hit; ho Mimon sai-. irifotamv omsnoK. fhtdat. noykmber 24, The present Ktate of knowledge fur-Jof nlshes us with no link between tho living and the not-living there Is not a shadow of tnwtworthy direct evidence that ahiogenesis does take place within the period during which the existence of life on the globe Is recorded." Our own eminent, but very sceptical nelentlst, Prof. I.ocb( after many years of experimenting In tho government laboratory at Woods Hall, Mass, with sea urchins to vroduce life after chemically destroying all life, so far as chemistry can do this has abso lutely failed, and admits today that there exists "A chasm between the not-living and the living forms of matter." In his very fascinating and scienti fic work: "The Hlrth of Life", John Uorroughs says: - Ufc without ante cedent life seems a biological iinposH. Utility. The theory of spontaneous generation Is rejected by the hlolo sophlcal mind, because experience tells us that everything has Its ante cedent, and that there Is and can be no end to the caussal sequence." Prof, llergson, in his "Creative which Is immanent in the faculty of acting, we shall escape from the bond age of tho mechanistic view into tie freedom of the larger iruth of the ceaseless creative Impulse which Is immanent In life," Prof. Ilussel Wallace, a co-laborer with Darwin in establishing tho the ory of tho origin of species by natural selection, could not accept the wholo of Darwinism.- He could not acept the animal origin of man. He looked upon man's spiritual nature ns a mi raculous addition to his anlttal in heritance. Darwin's scientific faith was not able to stand alone; It had to lean upon theological props that an in finite mind Is back of all things. John Fislt, in Ms "Cosmic Philo sophy," says: "I argue that the presence of !6d Is the one all-per vading fact of life, from which there U no escape." Sir Oliver Lodge, in IiIb masterly work, "Sclcnco and Immortality," says: "Science has failed to account for th life of the lowest animal, the tiniest plant, the simplest cell, hnrdly visible, but yet self-moving, in the field of mlcroscopo, aud that It has to confess that hitherto In this direc tion it hns failed. It has not yet wit nessed tho origin of the smutlest trace of life from dead mater: all life, so far as has been watched, proceeds from antecedent life.;; In "Uenson nnd Belief," tho same writer says: "There l no real con tradiction between the discoveries of science nnd the doctrines of Chris tianity." Alfred Wallace, in his "Century of Science, Bays: "The latest investiga tion of science leaves only one con clusion poslble a conclusion reached outside of the domain of natural sci ence although capable of verifica tion In Its domain namely, that Uod Is the logical Creator and that immor tality is the logical completion of life." "1 know oT but six persons." says Graham Hood in a recent article en titled "Science and Divinity." who even claim to hold materialism, and I am not quite certain as to the sincer ity of two or three of these exception al Individuals. Twenty years ago I could have found fully one hundred sincere, scientific materialists. In those days agnosticism was the lush- ion. Then scientific men tried to ac count for the descent ot man by the protess of evolution, but utterly over looked the fact that they had acount ed but for iue part of mail's being and tluit tile purely physical. Hack A FINE TREATMENT FOR CATARRH Vnsy to Make nntl Cost Mttlo Catarrh is .such an Insidious disease and has become so prevalent during tho past few years that its treatment should be underslood by all. Science has fully proved that ( tarrh is u constitutional disease aud therefore requires a constitutional treatment. Spras. inhalers saleB and nose douches seldom if ever give asting, benefit nnd often drive the dis ease further down the air passage' and into the lutms. If you have catarrh or catarrhal deafnes.i or head noises, go to your druggist and get ene ounce of Pnr- mlno (double strength.) Take th homo and add to it 1-4 pint of hot water and -I ounces of granulated sug ar; stir until dissolved, take one table-spoonful I inifs a day. This will often bring quick relief from the distressing head noises, clog ged nostrils should open, breathing bPconie easy and mucus stop diopplng into the throat. This treatment has a slight tonic action which makes It especially ef fective In cases where the blood has become thin anil weak. It is easy to mnke. tastes pleasant and costs little. Kvery person who wishes to be free from this destructive disease should Hive this treatment a trial. Heath's Drug Storo.

The inference, then, from what 1 have quoted from both enemies and friends of the Christian religion is, that the push of lire, of the evolution ary process. Is back of ail and In all. We can account for It all by saying tho Creative Knergy is Imminent in naturo, nnd this gives the mind some thing to take hold or. Indeed, as 1 have already shown, science the new science pursues matter to the vanishing point, where It ceases to be come matter, and becomes pure force, energy, spirit and whom we cull Ood but know no more. Science, pursuing Its Investigations finds evidence of energies of which it scarcely dreamed a few years ago. Whatever science may call it, whether this energy he intra-atomic, inter clemenlal. or be described by some other name, it knows that it exists In .quantities fur beyond the power of man's mind to comprehend. Science ltois some day, somewhere, some how, to discover the means of unlock ing this infinite storehouse, und It' tlhs discovery is made all others which have been made will pale into insignificance before U.
