Church Notes

Church of God. Elder S. J. Lindsay will conduct the following services at the Church of God: Saturday, 7:30 p. m., bible lesson, subject: “Prayer.” Sunday, 9:30 a. in., bible lesson; 10:45 a. m., sermon; 7:30 p. m., sermon. Baptist. Rev. F. H. Beard, pastor.—Sunday school, 9:30 a. m.; morning worship, 10:45 o’clock; James school services: Sunday school, 2 p. m. and preaching, 3 p. m.; evening services, 7:30 o’clock; prayer meeting, Thursday evening, 7:30 o'clock. In the continued illness of the pastor all services will be in charge of Rev. J. P. Green. “A large part of Christian virtue consists in right habits.” Form the right habit of church attendance.

Presbyterian. Rev. J. Budman Fleming, pastor. —9:30 a. m„ Bible school; 10:45 o’clock, morning worship and sermon, subject: “Fishers of 'Men”; 7:30 o’clock, evening worship and sermon, subject: “Thirsting for God.” “If I„ was not with you in person I was with you in spirit.” That has been used as an excuse for absence from church and a quieting potion for conscience, but it is a poor substitute for personal presence. Spirits do not make up congregations and when one can be there in the body and is not he , might as well keep his spirit at home with him. St. Augustine’s Next Sunday, the fourteenth Sunday after Pentecost, the services at St. Augustine’s church will be as follows: First mass at 7:30 a. m.; rosary high mass and sermon at 10 a. m.; instruction for the children that do not attend the parochial school immediately after high mass; Christian doctrine, devotional exercises and benediction at 2:30 p. m. The holy sacrifice of the mass will be celebrated each day at 8 o’clock except on Saturday ■when the mass will be at 7 o’clock. Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, September 19, 21 and 22, are Ember days, therefore fast an] abstinence days.

St. Janies Mission, Newland. The dedication last Suriday of our little mission church as.racted a great number of people to our town to attend the very impressive services, which took place at 11 o’clock. Rev. Leo Spornhauer sang the high mass; Rev. I. Rapp preached the sermon; Rev. Nicholas Grieve, who had been delegated by the Rt. Rev. Bishop Alerding for the purpose, blessed the church. Many other clergymen were present. After the services the ladies of St. Janies church, assisted by the ladies of St. Augustine’s church, served a dinner at Neeve’s grove. They realized SBO from their meals. This, with the collection taken at the church, amounted to $125.. The church as it stands now is free from debt, owing to splendid home missionary spirit by the members of St. Augustine’s church. It, was through their assistance only that the founding and building of the mission vas made possible. The members of the Newland Catholic church wish to use this opportunity to express their sincere thanks to all who assisted and most especially to the members of St. Augustine’s church. There will be mass and instruction at Newland Monday. September 18, at 8 o’clock.

IF HUGHES IS ELECTED

(Continued from page one)

daily to the Progressives of the country to return to the fold and give Mr. Hughes their support in the campaign and their ballots in November. It is, however, important to the Progressive voters of the countrv who left the Republican partv because of the standpatism and the dominance of the Penroses, the Barneses, the Cranes, the Heminways, the Watsons and the Cannons, to analyze the inevitable conditions that win obtain if Mr. Hughes should be elected, and a Republican congressional and senatorial majority be returned, and to give thoughtful consideration thereto before thev support or vote for Mr. Hiughes. Should the senate be Republican Boise Penrose will become as the ranking member of the committee, of the finance committee; William Alden Smith of Michigan would head the naval affairs committee; Henry A. DuPont of Delaware would step to the head of the committee on military affairs; Francis E. Warren of Wyoming, efficient purveyor of “pork,” would assume the chairmanship of the appropriations committee; George E. Sutherland of Utah, who voted to retain Lorimer in the senate, would preside over the committee on privileges and elections. , and James E. Watson, should he be elected, lifelong intimate and mouthpiece of Joseph G. Cannon and James A. Hemin way, would, without question be given some post of distinction and power. ( onditions in the house would be no better. Joseph G. Cannon would either become speaker, or would be made the head of the committee on appropriations; Joseph w. Fordney, a protectionist of the most purple blood, would preside over and dominate the committee on ways and means, the most powerful committee of the house, and others of like etandpat faith and adherence would preside over and control the other great committees.

As President Mr. Hughes would find himself face to face with a con- I dition and not a theory. Both branches of congress would be organized on standpat lines and dominated by standpat ideals and purposes. Mr. Hughes would be compelled to do business with them. No legislation of any kind could pass either body without their support. These men are veterans and past masters at the game of politics, and Mr. Hughes Would be compelled to surrender to them and submit to their dictation, for without them he would be helpless. They are not men to submit to halfway measures. The terms they would dictate would be unconditional surrender. It is certain as the coming of the nigjit after the day, that the Progressives who voted for Mr. Hughes and helped him to victory, would find themselves left outside the councils of the administration and in the predicament of men who had left the party four years before, because of the dictation, brutal methods and sordid concepts of those in control of the party’s councils and affairs, and had then 'turned about and restored them a gam to power and authority. These men are still unrepentant standpatters. They are appealing for Progressive votes now only as a lift to place and power, and these once obtained, the old ideals, practices and purposes which discredited the Taft administration, will actuate them again. The leopard can not change his spots. He may paint or glass them over, but he can not change them. Should Charles Evans Hughes be elected on November 7. it will not be a twelve-month until the followers of Theodore Roosevelt will be testifying to the bitter proof of this prophecy. Why not avoid humiliation by refusing to join in creating the conditions which are certain to bring it about? It is difficult to understand how a self-respecting man can bring himself voluntarily to pay a price like that, for the empty privilege of voting for Mr. Hughes. r

BIG LINER BURNS; 428 ARE RESCUED

Steamer Congress Destroyed by Fire Off Marshfield, Ore. WINS LONG RACE FOR SHORE Vessel Is Mass of Flames When Rescue Boat Arrives—Aid Summoned by Wireless—Ship Valued at $1,250,000. Marshfield, Ore., Sept. 15. —En route from San Francisco with 253 passengers and a crew of 175, the Pacific Coast Steamship company’s steel steamer Congress caught fire 30 miles off this port late Thursday. Captain Wins Race For Shore. A terrific race to save the steamer’s human freight at once began. The Congress dashed for shore. In deep water off the harbor entrance she cast anchor, the flames creeping forward meanwhle from the after hold to a point amidships. Boats were swung out and lowered and the work of taking off the passengers began. Among the rescued was Miss Emma Schafer of Chicago. Passengers Are Rescued. As fast as a boat became loaded It proceeded to the government bar dredge, Colonel P. S. Michie, to which the passengers were transferred. When the work began the forward jjecks of the Congress were black with terrified men, women and children. As the work proceeded the passengers became calmer. The sea was smooth and the weather fine and there was little delay. Ship Wrapped in Flames. By dark all were off the Congress, and the Michie and the Tillamook headed for the harbor. The Congress by this time was Completely wrapped In flames from stem to stern.

Fire Starts in Steerage. The fire was first discovered about three o'clock in the afternoon. It broke out in the second hold in the steerage, from a cause unknown. The Congress was then well out to sea, but the captain set her head toward shore. The flames at first were confined to the compartment where they originated and it was hoped they might be controlled. However, all efforts of the crew, first to smother the flames and then to flood them out, proved vain. No Panic on Board. The passengers for the most part behaved well and there was no panic. The ship’s officers repeatedly assured those on board that port would be

made in ample time for all to be saved. Wireless calls were sent out urging all vessels to come to the rescue, and these were repeated at frequent intervals until the wireless power plant became disabled and useless. First the main wireless plant became useless and then the auxiliary went down, but not until the Coos bay station had received the S. O. S. transmitted weakly by the auxiliary. As a result of this message having been caught ashore life savers from the government station and an army of volunteers were on the beach when the burning Congress hove in sight. When first seen smoke was pouring from the vessel and the volume increased rapidly. The vessel is a total loss. Ship Is a Crack Liner. Shn Francisco, Sept. 15.—The Congress, which was builf for the Pacific Coast Steamship company at a cost of $1,250,000, is a steel steamer of 7,985 tons, 424 feet long and 55 feet broad. It is the finest vessel on the run between San Francisco and Seattle. The ship was bound for Seattle when the fire was discovered.

But There Are Some Exceptions.

“As Maine goes, so the nation.” Ever hear that before? Of course you have. Maine has always been a Republican state and with a state election in September has' always been decreed by the Republicans to be a criterion of what will follow throughout the country in November. This might be well and good but for the fact that there are on record several instances of where Maine went Republican in September and a Democratic President was elected in November. The Republicans realize that the administration of President Wilson has been a most successful one and that he is certain of re-election, and as the proverbial drowning man they are grasping at every srtraw in an effort to pull him under.

JAPAN ASSURES U. S.

TOKYO AND PETROGRAD TO KEEP “OPEN DOOR" IN CHINA. Declare New Treaty Does Not Amend Agreements Made in 1907 and 1310. Washington, Sept. 15— Both Japan and Russia have given the Jlnited States assurances the treaties of 1007 and 1910, in which both pledged themselves to respect the integrity of China and maintain the open-door policy, are not repealed or affected by the new Russo-Japanese treaty. The assurances were given to Ambassadors Guthrie at Tokyo and Francis at Petrograd. The state department received Mr. Guthrie's note. It resulted from inquiries made by him at Tokyo "by direction of the state department regarding the effect of the new treaty. The statement issued by the state department says the Japanese government has now most courteously added to a former oral assurance the following note to the ambassador, dated September 13:

“The imperial government desire to assure the American government that the new convention is in no sense designed to repeal or to modify the provisions of article 2 of the convention concluded between Japan and Russia on July 31, 1907, nor have the imperial government entertained for a moment any intention to depart from the policy to which thuy have avowedly committed themselves respecting the maintenance of the independence and territorial integrity of China, as well as the principle of equal opportunity for the trade of all nations in that country.” The result of similar Inquiries at Petrograd is commented upon by the state department as follows: “The minister for foreign affairs of the imperial Russian government in like manner assured the American ambassador in response to his inquiry that his government had not withdrawn from the conventions of 1907 and i9lO, but will maintain unimpaired the provisions of those agreements, notwithstanding the fact that no mention of them was made in the convention of 1916.” State department officials expressed complete satisfaction with both.
