The City Election
Ine city election, winch oc
curs next Tuesday, will see
seven candidates in the field for
coucilmen. l?ut one of these is
a memler of the present council.
although several of them have
served previously. It is pre
sumed that all of the candidates
are imbued with the spirit of
serving their fellow citizens hon
estly and intelligently.
While there are two tickets, so
to speak, there is no real issue
other than that the officers who
are chosen shall be those who
are best constituted to deal with
concluding the negotiations of
taking over the old water plant
and providihg for a new one.
On the matter of a more ade
quate water supply the people
have hecome a unit. There is.
of course, some diversity of opin
ion as to what methods shall be
pursued in obtaining the desired
result, and the radical and im
patient have talked of the recall
and other drastic action. We
do not believe, however, that
the best results could be ob
tained by such a course, nor by
the election of those whose ideas
run to such radical methods.
Thejreal issue in the city elec
tion is in the selection of council
men who will be best fitted to
handle its water problem, who
will be broad enough to lay aside
prejudice, who will not be guided
by self-interests or influenced by
private considerations.
Although every effort is being
made to close the negotiations
for the old water system, they
may, as in the past, fail; it may
be necessary to carry the matter
through the supreme court, and
it may be necessary to adopt a
new policy.
The projected permanent street
improvements will come under
the hand of the new council, as
will also that of issuing bonds
for the new water system. It
will, therefore, require a broad
minded business administration
and a harmonious one.
On another page we have
named the candidates to be voted
for. Select those who will best
follow out the policy for a broad,
harmonious and intelligent ad
ministration of public affairs.
A Correction
In the editorial in last week's
issue of the News discussing the
water situation, the editor stated
that the Oregon supreme court
had the power to raise or lower
the amount of the verdict given
in the circuit court, lhis, we
belive, is an error, although
opinions on it are conflicting.
Information led us to believe that
this statement was correct, but a
search in the statutes defining
the powers of the Oregon su
preme court fails to reveal any
authority giving it this right.
The powers of the supreme court
are, therefore, confined to pass
ing on the testimony as to judi
cial error, with the right to re
mand the case for a new trial or
to deny such right, as it sees fit.
Another inaccuracy is said to
be the figures of $37,200 which
we gave as the amount that has
been expended already on the
old water plant. It is stated
that this amount should have
been given as $30,000, the addi
tional $1,250 being the amount
estimated as the expense for
carrying the case through the
supreme court. The informa
tion is given out, also, that if it
is possible for the city to tender
the amount of the verdict, $32.
411. to the water company in
cash, that the jnding litigation j
will be practically ended and that
the revenue that has accumu-j
luted from the plant will reduce
the gross amount, including thet
lcral exjonses, very materially. J
Gipsy Smith
From the Oreironmn
The Oregonian has received
and printed a number of letters
commending Gipsy Smith and
his effort to convert the people
of Portland to Christianity. It
has likewise received, and has
not printed, other letters con
demning the evangelist in more
or less measured terms, ques
tioning the integrity of his pre
tensions and motives, denying
his power to work miracles, and
denouncing the Portland church
es for supporting a sensational
and emotional movement that
can have no beneficial result.
One writer begins his letter with
the following:
"Mv opinion of this hypnotist.
Gipsy Smith, and his hypnotic
efforts to convert the people of
Portland to his way of thinking
are the most deplorable that 1
hove ever seen anywhere. Intel
ligent people are all up in arms
against him."
Not all the hostile letters are
so incoherent and involved: but
all. or nearly all. exhibit a ma
lignant spirit toward Christi
anity and a genuine animosity
toward the churches. The Oro
gonian declines to permit its col
umns to be m:ule tire vehicle of
a controversy that would merely
excite more bitter and fruitless
contention and angry recrimina
tion. To what good?
This is Gipsy Smith's day and
hour. The Protestant churches
of Portland and of Oregon are
with him. The Oregonian is
merely reporting the things that
are being said ana aone on a
scale commensurate with the
great interest of a very large and
respectable portion of the public
in the enterprise. If the critics
of the daily and nightly perform
ances do not like them, let them
go off and hold a show of their
own. The Oregonian will re
port that, too.
But The Oregonian will not dis
miss the subject without saying
something more about Gipsy
Smith and his ways of procuring
conversions by theatrical appeals
to the emotions and sentiments
of his hearers. Emotion and sen
timent are mighty factors in
the development of civilization.
Without them the world would
be a sad place; without Christi
anity and Christian influence and
Christian character or a satis
factory substtiute the world
would be a still sadder place.
None of us would want to re
main here, least of all the critics
of Christianitv and the churches.
There are backsliders hundreds
and thousands of them, no doubt
from the myriad con vers of the
Gipsy Smiths; but the record
does not show that they commit
ted very many crimes while at
the mourners' bench or were
still under the thrall of their
stirring impuls toward a cleaner
and better life. The world goes
ahead slowly, and travels over
many slippery places. The loss
es from the hosts of Zion have
been many, very many, yet the
army is a vast one and a strong
one, and it goes right on singing
and striving and cheering and
