Instead, arms them with al most supernatural strength to combat evil. God waa something still outside the world, looking upon and governing It Indeed, but as a Judge, a critic, not as a Father. Thla view Is called the eminence of Ood. or God held up. There Is another view of God. It came from the Greeks, and though their gods were many the Idea may be applied to one. This is of the emi nence or nearness of God; God In eveay thing the trees, the flowers, the winds: all nature Is permeated by him. In him they live and move and have their being. Aa the flowers spring upward to wards the sun. and his light and warmth cause them to put forth, to bud and bloom, so all his creation reaches up to his love and csre.

Proprietors of seiond-clas restau rants and liquor resort, scattered throughout every quarter of tlie el'y have apparently rat nsldf what mea ger respect they formerly held for t.ie ordinance regulating the sal of liquor to minora and adults and continue un checked In their braien violations of he law. It 1b evident that the llj-t-! method of the police In enforrlr.g the specified regulations governing 1 sal of liquors Is the dlrei-t cause of the effrontery on the part of the proprietors. The oora-lonsl arrests by the police of certain proprietors for violation of he liquor truffle have apparently had little effect. Although the police u- lared war on the lawbreakers at times when the erring proprietors were haled Into publicity the proposed cru sades never materialised. Hull's Arrest Is I-al. Since the arrest of U . Hull, the proprietor of the notorious "Whit? Front Orlll." a South l.rtland re sort several weeks ago. and the sub sequent suspension of business there, tne police have, for some unknown reason, not seen fit to cause similar molestations. Throughout the South and North Knds and In the heart of the city In the dow n town district, as well as on the prin cipal thoroughfares of fie Kast Sld- the proprietors of cafes restaurant grills and brer saloons which cater ! those of the fe.ninine sex with a thlr.t . for liquor have been permitted to vio late the law without fear of police In terference. Not alone have Cie propri etors of such resorts violated the law governing the sale of liquor wICiou. meals, but in Innumerable Instance the minor law lias been utterly dis regarded. It la not an uncommon sight to venture Into any of thes- establishments, which are or at ira.it should be. under the surveillance of the police, after dark, and observe joung girls stll In the early teens an t well under their majority of years tilting a glass of an Intoxicating bev erage to her Hps.

While such scenes are nightly wlt resed In every section of the city, yet toe greatest patronage from this source Is secured by the proprietors of the es tablishments on tit "Klalto.- the district in the Immediate vicinity of Sixth and s-tark streets. In this section there are a dozen liquor-dispensing places, some of which cater to the lowbrow" element and others which gladly extend courtesies to the more elite. Two of the most no torious restaurants of this class In the Ity are located on the so-called "Rtalto."' Tliese place are the Mecca where habit ues of the underworld congregate or vir tually reside when not otherwise en-ga-ed.

Nothing has been done by the police to rec:ir the situation. In the places of the less disreputable class in the down-town district the laws restricting the sale of liquors are openly e.'ed. This may be. assigned particu larly to the fact that seldom. If ever. police officer In his line of duty enters ie places to see bow things are g In?.

GOD IS LOVE; LOVE IS GOD Modern View of tlie Impersonal Ruler of the Vnlverse. PORTLAND. Sept. J. CTo tho Ed I tor.) And 1 beard a great vole out of heaven saying, 'ltehuld the shelter of love la over men. and love will dwell with them and be their God. And love snail wine away all tears from their yes. and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain, for the former things haTe passed away.' " There are two waya of thinking of God. One. the Roman Idea, which I all through the Did Testament, and still pervades the church of the present day. This Is the thought of a ruler, a Ud of atrength and power, who shall Judge men shall sit on the clouds of heaven and render to every man ac cording to his work. Someiiiiiuc spec tacular still clings to this aspect of ;d. and Christ In teaching his doc trines to his disciples and followers found that among the most difficult things to eliminate from their minds concerning himself. In vain he said, the "kingdom of heaven Is within you." or "like a grain of mustard seed," very small at first, or like the leaven hid in the meal until the whole Is leavened, they slill persisted In thinking his klnsdom one to be seen, they still looked for the result before the be Ktnnlng. the harvest before the plant ing. This Roman Idea of God left out much, often all. of his love, and put force In Its place, as was natural con sidering the power of Rome. Thla same doctrine was and Is still taught by the theologians of both ancient and modern times. The preachers thun dered of sin and of Judgment to come and filled men's mind with fear, wbjle PORTLAND COUPLE CELEBRATE THEIR GOLDEN WEDDING l4 i - ' ' r . -' " i H v... . i:V" ::: l" i 1 m MR. n MR a.
