that year, -which amounted to $82,01,
000. The , price o silver in 1904, ac
cording to the director of the. mint,
varied from: 55 to 6L eents per fine
ounce, representing a decided increase
pver the prices of .'1903, which varied
from-4S to 59 eents and only exception
ally rose to 61 cents m October, 1903.
- Sources of increase in Production.
The principal sources of the great in
crease in the gold production of over
$3,000,000, compared with that of 1903,
are easily traceable. Colorado added
nearly- $2,000,000 to her production of
1903, most of tnis amount coming from
the mines of Cripple Creek. Nevada's
output increased about the same amount

Discusses Attitude In Things Secular.
"The Minister as a Civilian" was
recently-the subject of an address by
D. Errett, pastor of the Christian
church of this city. The subject is one
of general interest, and Mr. Errett said:
There is a disposition to more closely
confine the ministry to the pulpit, and
exclude it from the rostrom to eom-

the dredgers., Alaska and Arizona show

ber of states show smaller increase. ,

is to blame for this condition; for the
mere intimation- that the pulpit, is a

The state of Washington produced
less gold than in 1903, the decrease
amounting; to $193,422, with a total
production of $314,463. This is
plained by the idleness of several large
mines in Ferry, Chelan and Okanogan
counties,. In F?rry county the decrease
seems due largely to the difilculty of
treating the or.-s, wKTch do not yield
readily to amalgamation or cyaniding,
while their siliceous character, makes
them undesirable for smelters., That the
state did not show a still greater loss
is due to the Mount Bak?r district,
which increased its yield from $36,38S
In 1903 to- $115,000 in 1904. The out-,
put of silver in Washington is small
and is derived mainly from the lead
ordes of Stevens " county,' but in part
from the siliceous ores of Whatcom
and Ferry counties.
J Ncmber of Mine.
The number' of producing mines in
the Western states, exclusive of Alaska !
In JU04, was 3Z54. To this should be
added several hundred producers in
Alaska and probably over a hundred
In - southern Appalachian states which
would iuak3 a total of about 4000. The
total number of placer mines reported
is 1349 and of deep mines 1903. Colo
rado has the largest number (567) of
deep producing mines, and is followed
by California with 474. In number ox
placer mines California easily leads '
with 711, and is followed by Idaho 1
wun zo.f, an by Oregon with 211
mines., California has by far the great-'
KI mur,.ii, or producing mines,
and is followed by Colorado, in which
the numb?r is 383.

of Mr. Lindgren's report is bis classi

according to its derivation from plac

But what must be hii attitudeIn
things' seeularY Shall he be prompted
in dealing with the strenuous things of
life about himf Or will he b$uine a
dolt and a -pigmy, circumscribe! within
the narrow limits of a congregation who
may choose him as the standard-bearer
of their cansof . ' . "
t:. Shall he become a factor in the politi
cal, the social and civic relations of
lifef Shall ho become an important
element vin the municipal life of the
people f These are some of the ques
tions that come up for solution, and
there are those who aay that the min
ister transeends his bounds when Be
deals with such problems. This. seems
to be the issue. .-
Now, I grant that the minister has
no right to be a partisan in the sense
that he become one-sided in his views
as between political parties, as they
are represented today. Bnt he does
have the right to condemn the wrong
and voiee his sentiments both from the
rostrom and at the ballot box. Who
has a better right than he as between
the right anu wrong of things social or
political f No man, whether, he be a
member of a political party or not, has
the right to be a party, to wrong-doing.
No political party should permit itself
to champion the wrong. And the min
ister can be a artisan only as between
right and wrong. There is a disposi
tion to manipulate the pew, and con
fiscate the pulpit in matters political.
But what right has the pew politically,
socially, moraUy. that doies not belong
to the miniBtryTf.
I claim my right as a civilian in the
matter of politics as I do in any other
question that belong to the rights of
man. Indeed, no minister has the right
to seal his lifts when there is manifest
wrong in any .department of life. The
worthies of old were men of state. Ood
made them prophets, judges, kings, et.,
with both religious and oliticaI powers.
The prophet and the priest were ad
visors of the heads of the government.
Jesus Christ told the authorities to ren
der unto Saesar the things that belong
to him, but to alo render unto God the
things that are God's. Government
must not be divorced from religious
rights. State anil church are prohibit
ed, and rightly so, but religion and
tate are not. So that the ministry
has the right to deal with the state
publicly in the matter of right and
ron. The man that goes wrong po
litically, is as much a sinner as the liar,
the thief or the. gambler and should h4
Je'alt with accordingly. How far should
the minister goi in mat tcrv political
municipal f Just as far as the wrongs
committed call for criticism, censure
and religious activity. No more, no
less. Should he mingle with" men in
the affairs of state and city f Most
assuredly. He should have a voice with
every patriot for the good the com
mon good. Should he hold office! That
depends. James A. Garfield was hon
ored both as preacher and statesman.
Ira J. Chase was the patriot governor
of Indiana as well as the gifted preach
er. It depends on tne man. As a rule
the minister has all he can do without
political office. Too many times it de
grades the ministry, but always because
there is not the true man behind it.
The preacher must be broad-minded,
not one-sided. He must open bis mind
to the mighty visions of life as they
-effect men. lie must not forget that
he is a preacher of life, and that life
stands for the excellence of ideals. But
t&the midst of all he varied and vary
ing conditions . of life, the ministry
must not forget its debt to all inter
ests. The church should be the factor
for molding public sentiment. If the
minister does not give the key-word,
and sound the key-note, there will not
be much progress in the world of ethies
and religion.
I therefore contend for the minister
civilian. For the highest, the upper
most place in the calling, the high, call
ing which he has assumed. Thus, I
believe our country could be made bet
ter, our wrongs righted, and our star
of empire set higher in the moral heav
ens to shine brighter until the perfect
day. -
