THE MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, JULY 26, 1909. 4 SAYS WW LAW INEFFECTUAL Primary Law Has Not Bettered Conditions in Oregon, De clares C. W. Smith. CIVIC FEDERATION MEETS Clergyman Urges Christian Voters to Cnite in Effort to Eradicate Corruption In Politics. Others Make Addresses. "There In one thing of which I desire to fixate. It had been supposed that the primary law would do much to reform affairs and bring about better conditions, but in Oregan such has not been the re mit, I understand. It shows that ' no matter what, the law, or system, the peo pl must be back of it, or it wilt not be effective. The people are everything, and this Government is Just what the ma jority make it." The foregoing was the closing remark of Dr. Charles W. Smith, bishop of the Mhodiat Episcopal Church, in his ad dress delivered yesterday afternoon be fore a mass meeting held under the " nuFpirrs of the Civic Federation In the Swedish! Methodist 'Episcopal Church. Beech and Borthwick streets. Bishop Smith was the last speaker, and he re viewed at length with gTeat earnestness the civic forces of the country, and told what influences oppose them. Bishop Smith said: Address of Ir. Smith. I do not know much about the Civic Fed eration In this city, but I can say that you have a hard fisht before you. It is not a ffsht of da vs. weeks, months or years; it Is a ftsrht to the end. There is no discharge in this warfare. It Is a hard fight because of the forces arrayed ajra.nt you. but there outht o be enough rood, bonost Chris tian men on the side of civic righteousness to win out In the -nd. I might say that human nature is arrayed against you. for there are the appetitJes. the passions all on the other side. There are patriots who serve their city or country well and honestly. They serve In the City Council without pay. They are rlan. honest men and deserve well of th?ir fellow citizens. There are salaried men who art- also honest and servo their country faithfully and honestly. They are men who Perform the duties for which they are paid without graft. They should receive the sup port and respect of their fellow cltisens. Thry should have the support of the church and they should be made to know that their iT.irts are appreciated by their fellow cltl zei s. Rut there la another class who aeek office only hut for graft. They are statesmen only for craft, and as such should receive the rnr demnation of al! good citizens and. If they cannot be sent to the penitentiary, oucht. at least, be drummed out of the com munity. That kind of men , ought to be watched and exposed. Their only regard for ofrice is that It affords them opportunity to graft. It Is truly said that the saloon Is the enemy of civic righteousness and the hotbed rrt political corruption. A gigantic, system of grafting Is maintained by this cIhss of statesmen through the saloon from the lowest brothel on upward. There is an organised system of graft. y Worse Than in Europe I do not say these thlnga to discourage you. hut to set before you Just what you must fight. Our city governments are the rnont corrupt In the world. They are worse than those In Europe. The church Is not numerically strong enough to outvote the corrupt element. We cannot outvote . the saloons atone. The churches do no have over 20 per cent of the vote. It Is not right to throw the whole responsibility on the churches, but all the righteous ele ments can combine and bring about better conditions. There are enough Christian and honest voters who want to Improve civto conditions to overthrow the corrupt powers when they unite, but there must be organi sation and leadership. Tammany, of New York. Is an organisa tion, of great political power, but Is not al together a political organization. It la both a benevolent and charitable organiza tion. It has a most complete organization. Its bosses look after the voter. If they are sick, they are cared for. If they want work, a Job la found for them. They are fed if they are hungry and. of course, thesa people vote the way Tammany wants them to vote. Sometimes Tammany Is overthrown when all the elements pulling for civic Im provements unite, but Tammany waits and tries It again, and wins out. It has a grip on its adherents, and snows something of the elements that you must fight to Im prove civic condition. Of course, all cities have not Tammany, but the conditions are much the same and the grin of the cor rupting power Is hard to break. The same conditions exist In most cities, but without Tammany. Means Long. Hard Flrht. Closing up the saloons and enforcing the taw mejns a long and a hard right. Mere enactment of laws closing up the saloons do-s not mean that the saloons are cloned. The law mut be enforced- But every t'hr .Mian citizen should stand for civic r!j;hrenusne5 and for American citizenship. Tiie people should be supreme in this country. The ptopie are the king, and the people can control if they will to do so. They can h.iv the kind of government they will to have. I believe in party organization and party government in thia country. It is only when on? party becomes overwhelmingly power ful and arrogant that It become corrupt, and then the other party steps In. lly uniting the honest Christian voters of all pir:is. Republican. Democratic. Ptrpullat, Prohibition and other parties, the end of civic righteousness may be attained. The other speakers were Raw A. Far rrll. who spok in the Swedish language; R?v. J. C. Larson, who spoke In the Nor gUn tongue; L D. Ma hone, editor of the Oregon Citizen, onran of the Civic Federntlon: Rev. I C. Hamilton, of Cen tral Methodist Episcopal Church, and Rev. John Ovall. pastor. Most of the speakers declared that the battle Is on for making Orepron dry in 1910. The musical and literary numbers were ex- client. The Methodist Episcopal choir sang several selections. A Swedish song was also rendered. Miss Christina Olseu sarar a snng and Miss Klna Chllds ren dered a temperance recitation. M. C. Keed. president, presided. IR. HILL IX HIS OLD PCLPIT IHsousscs Chicago's Problem at First Presbyterian Church. Dr. Edgar P. Hill, a member of the faculty of the AlcCormlck Presbyterian Theological Seminary of Chicago, for merly pastor of the First Presbyterian t'luirch of Portland, spoke from his old pu'pit yesterday morning and last nisri.t. in the absence of the pastor. Dr. William Hiram Foulkes. on his vaca tion. Dr. Hill was greeted a both services by larsre congregations. Dr. Hill Is visiting with H. C. Camp bell, at Twentieth and Carter, streets, on Portland heichts. He Is' to be In , Portland ahout three weeks. The Ladies- Aid Society of the First Church will tender him a reception tomorrow nlirht. It will be held in the rear room of the church. Dr. Hill spoke yesterday morning on Heart s Ease." and last night on "The Problem of Chicago." He remarked In opening that he played ball 30 yours f( on empty lots In Chicago which are now In the downtown district. He con tinued: Five million people have entered this country in the last mix year.. A year a?o we had a scene in Chicago which vu very sianincant. TVe were about to vote. On the Sunday preceding the election thousands of people gathered on the lake-front to ex press themselves on the. Usue of the elec- tlon But they were not there at free snd Intelligent voters, to register their impres sions. They were there as so many Bo hemians, and Italian and people of other nationalities, to be delivered over In great masses.' If the time has come when people In great blocks can be delivered at the polls by unscrupulous politicians, or by priests, the days of our boasted democracy are at an end: and the days 01 reuaausm have returned. There is not a Protestant church w.thin two miles of the City. Hall in rhlrauft which Is not struggling for life. simply because - their communicants have moved away to less congeatea aistricis. A few years ago 6V Bohemians marched through our streets to the rity Hall and demanded work or bread. When we see such thing we cannot be unmindful of the French Revolution. Amng the oermana. Bohemians. Poles. Italians and Jews have good material for building a nation. If It U only properly fleveiopea. POLITICS FOR "SUMMER With Remarks AUo for the Whole Round Year. Hlllsboro Independent. Politics are usually a drug on the market during; the Summer season of an off year, when the average man Is more Interested In flies and camp outfits than the machinery of govern ment. But -while we are about It it might be well to remind the Republican majority of Washington County that the state has elected a Democratic Gov ernor twice in succession and now has Charles W. Smith, Methodist Bishop, Who Declares Results of Primary Law Are Disappoint ing. a Democratic United States . Senator, which highly displeasing state of af fairs from a Republican standpoint was brought about largely through the efforts of "independent" newspapers ar "independent" political movements. ith bona fide independent move ments and the newspapers that sup port them little fault can be found. It is the privilege of any man to ask sup port of his own particular declaration of principles, and unfortunately con ditions are sometimes such that the banding together of the best elements Irrespective of party is the only method by which a meritorious end can be at tained. But this condition is rare, and with it we have no quarrel. What con cerns Republicans is the "Independent" movement peculiar to Oregon which ap pears to have as its sole aim th'e reduc tion of the Republican major. ty and the solidifying of the unterrlfled and unwashed, as someone has put it. We have several times been treated to the spectacle of so-called independent move ments launched by a band of professed ly high-minded patriotic gentlemen with the purification of politics as the avowed motive, and when the returns were In and noses counted discover that a hitherto politically unsuccessful gen tleman with a conspicuous Democratic brand has landed some particularly luscious official plum and the Repub lican majority just so much nearer an nihilation. The Independent frankly acknowl edges it is a party newspaper and the business of a party newspaper is to help Its party win victories. No party can monopolize all the political virtues, and occasional mistakes are made in select ing standard-bearers, but we do not be lieve than In order to correct these mis takes it is necessary to lend support to the Tom. Dick or Harry who may be put forward as a panacea for all ills by a "disinterested" Independent move ment which secretly hopes to win enough recruits from the dominant party to insure Democratic success, or, In case there is no ticket of that party put forward you will usually find It thinly disguised under an "Independent" cloak. Indications now point to a more strict party line up at the next state election than for years past. Independ ence, so-called, received a bump a year aaro in the election of Chamberlain from which it will take years to recover, for Republicans who unthinkingly Joined the movement have had their eyes opened to Its true significance. There is also likely to be a sifting process, a separating of the sheep from the goats, as it were, and it Is likely to be conducted on the theory of "he who Is not for us Is against us." Con gressmen are to be soon elected, and If Republicans permit the tactics that elected Chamberlain, a Democratic suc cessor to Haw ley Is a possibility. The poll list reveals quite a considerable number of voters In Washington County who profess the Republican faith. In fact, the number is so considerable as compared with the total registration as to forbid the possibility of Democratic success unless, a sufficient number could be drawn to an Independent movement or accepted advice from in terested sources to give no concern to public affairs and pay strict attention to what the county Is capable of In the way of crops. It Is to be presumed these voters had reason for declaring their political faith, and. In the light of past events, will view with suspi cion advice which. If followed, would mean defeat of the party to which they proless allegiance, and It goes without saying they will see through crude at tempts from Democratic sources illy disguised by the cloak of Independence to discredit the utterances of Repub lican newspapers on political topics. Latah Expects Big Crops. MOSCOW. Idaho. July 25. (Special.) NVw warehouses and additions to old ones are being built and fitted up pre paratory to receiving the largest crop of grain, hay. fruit and roots ever har vested in Latah County. Local cherries are just making their appearance in mar ket and the quality was never better. The apple crop will not be as lange as some years, but the Indications are that the pear crop will be heavy, and there will be many carloads to be shipped if the market justifies tt. Monster Brown Bear Slain. CHERRYVILLE. Or.. July 25. (Special.) A brown bear, weighing 250 pounds, was killed near the Lost Creek mines yester day. Members of the hunting party who captured the bear were J. T. Friel. Jr., "William Stone and Ben Rod die. Trunks, suitcases and bags. La rarest variety at Harris TrixoX Co. In V ft v I ' ; ROOSEVELT'S HUNT GETS PULPIT JAR Dr. Luther R. Dyott Says Trip . to Wilds Is "Ignoble Spectacle." LOYAL AMERICANS BLUSH Clergyman Scores Killing for Fun as Infidelity Ex-President's Pastime Is Termed Coarse. Jealous Women Grilled. "An ignoble spectacle" was the term us-?d by Dr. Luther R. Dyott, of the Flrnt Congregational Church, referring to ex-President Roosevelt's hunting trip in his aermon yesterday morning. The min ister went on to say that Roosevelt's slaughter of animals for sport is enough to make a loyal American blush. He said that to kill for fun is coarse in fidelity. Dr. Dyott 'v sermon yesterday morning was upon "Faithfulness." his text being: "The Lord Is faithful, who shall estab lish you, and guard you from the evil one." He said, in part: Btrarge doctrines, and teachers with a zeal, not according to knowledge, naa un settled the people to whom Paul wrote. Paul, himself, had satd something about the sec ond coming of Christ. The people had interpreted his words quite liberally. Would be teachers had Impressed them with the Idea that Christ was surely to return to the earth, and that his coming was at hand. So they rave up their secular vocations and- piously waited for the coming of Christ. 1 hey became disconcerted, and useless in earthly employ. A religion which interferes with persons doing the so-called secular things, which ought to be done, is, in some respects, worse than no religion at all. One is best prepared for the coming or tne Lord, whatever that coming nifty mean to him, when, with clean heart, clear brain, and consecrated life he Is found doing the things that ought to be done doing the or dinary things with an extraordinary spirit. It Is in being faithful that we register life in Its best. Men of cynical nature, saturated In pes simistic moods, are often Inclined to think that most persons are unfaithful. They call attention to the fact that In business. In poll tics. In the home and In the church there are so many persons who cannot be trusted. They dwell too much upon the exposures or wrong, forgetting that, with ail the Imper fections of human nature, people are still so good that crime, and not well-doing, is news, and that the exposure of wrongdoing has a specific mission and that It Is not al together without Its salutary Influence. When the lightning strikes, that which It hits may be killed, but the atmosphere Is purl fled. At the same time It should be remembered that while many persons are unfaithful. many more are faithful. There are married men whose Itvee are decayed to the core, and they violate their marital vows and are not fit to live with, while won: anhood. bound In the vows of loyalty unto death, remains pure. A husband may be like a rotten stump, while his wife is like a pure and tender vine, still clinging to that stump. Some men are bad. Many more are good, and In business, in politics and religion are the eslt of the earth. Some women are wicked, more wicked than man. Vile In nature. Insanely Jealous, without cause, while the objects of the murderous hearts retain the consciousness of clean life. There are men In politics who libel the very word statesmen, but there are more who are trying to do their duty and It is mighty cheap and criminally culpable busi ness for us to Indiscriminately throw mud at all politicians because some of them do wrong. There are some persons in the church who sting their Lord with the kisses of traitors, but many more are faithful, and It Is the work of small and prejudice- poisoned souls to condemn the whole church for the failure of a few of Its members. We should all allow the faithfulness ox the Lord to establish ua In faithfulness to ward God and man and every living crea ture. This means that we have no right to prey upon the creatures of the lower world. Just for the love of sport, and the destruction of life. We have no right to take the life of an animal, save as in so doing we administer to the life, the safety and comfort and needs of humanity. To kill for the fun, or fondness of killing. Is coarse inndellty. The ex-President of the United States Is making an Ignoble spectacle of himself, and It Is enough to make a loyal American blush. Unfaithfulness Is the one awful thing that despoils life. Faithfulness Is the one divine thing that holds God and man to gether In the Interest of life, and all of th best things of life. SKELETON FIND STARTLES Coos County Coroner Believes Grave of Indian Dead Was Robbed. MARSHFIELD, Or., July 25. Much ex citement was created at Empire by the finding of a skull and other parts of a human skeleton on a farm near the city. Coroner Golden investigated, and H i thought that the bones were those of an Indian girl who was buried there some years ago and that the grave was robbed in order to steal the relics and valuables buried with their dead. An effort Is being made to discover and punish the criminal. Some years ago a man was sent to the penitentiary from Empire for robbing the graves of Indians. DAILY METEOROLOGICAL REPORT. PORTLAND.
