GOOD LUCK DOES IT
Spokane Chief Wonders That
Portland Escapes Fire.
ADVOCATES PAID DEPARTMENT
Says Untrained Men Cannot Fight
Fires Effectively, and Predicts Big
Calamity if Present Volunteer
System Is Continued.
"Until Portland secures a paid Fire De
partment and grained Are lighters, it can
never have the adequate protection from
loss of life and property by flres. A paid
fire department is an absolute necessity
in any large city. A city without it Is
at the mercy of a chance conflagration.
How Chief Campbell has accomplished
what he has -with the department at his
command is a mystery to me. Portland
needs a paid department and needs it
urgently. The saving In loss of property
and In Insurance rates would more than
repay the extra expense. I am glad to
hear that the city is at last to have a
paid department-"
Such are the pointed statements of A.
H. Myers, Chief of the Fire Department of
Spokane. "Wash., who is visiting In this
city. Since he came here several days
ago Chief Myers has made a thorough
Inspection of Portland's volunteer Fire De
partment; and with Chief Cambell has
traveled over the various Are districts of
the city, the protected and the unpro
tected districts. His observations qualify
him to give valuable opinions upon the
needs of the city In the way of protective
measures against fire. He is a veteran
flre-fighter, schooled by years of experi
ence, and for nine years he has been at
the head of the Spokane department. He
has been at the head of both volunteer
and paid departments and knows the
drawbacks of the one and the advantages
of the other.
"When asked for an interview yesterday
Mr. Myers talked very freely of the superi
ority of a paid department and pointed
out the needs of Portland In that line.
"Let us first consider the disadvantages
of a volunteer department such as Port
land has," said he. "To begin with, the
men are absolutely untrained. They are
willing to work and will do all they can
but that Is little, for they do not know
what to do. or how to do it When
an alarm sounds, the volunteers may be"
blocks away and they have to run to the
scene of the fire; by the time they reach
there they are played out and not fit to
fight a fire. Then for the first few minutes
all Is confusion. Everybody wants to do
something, and In the confusion the
chances are they don't do the right thing.
The first few minutes of a fire Is the vital
time. It is then that the effective work
must be done by a department. But if
there is confusion and the men are not
trained to know exactly what to do, the
effective work cannot be done and the
fire gains headway. Then it Is a long
and stubborn fight. There Is a science
and an art in handling hose to the best
advantage, in manipulating the ladders
and In getting over and through buildings
to points of vantage. If the men are not
trained, how can they do this work? It
is impossible. There is no one who re
quires more constant and thorough drill
ing than the fireman. He must! be pre
pared to meet every emergency.
"For Instance, in the handling of the
tnwer lnddfir. thp nomnler ladders, the
life line and tho nets, the most thorough
training is necessary. A novice can't
handle a tower ladder effectively, and
success with the pompier ladders comes
only by long training. In the saving of
life in big buildings these equipments are
very essential. If you have inexperienced
men, little can be accomplished with these
equipments.
"Again, time Is a very essential feature
in fighting -fires. Every moment must
be made to count Where a chief is
forced to run to a fire and then wait for
volunteers to come before he can get the
hose strung out the ladders raised and
the engines in working order, as Chief
Campbell has to, he Is laboring under
a serious handicap. If he Is successful
in fighting the fire he Is lucky. The
utter Inadequacy of a volunteer fire de
partment is proved very clearly by the
advanced insurance rates in cities where
they are maintained.
"On the other hand, let us look at some
of the advantages of a paid and trained
department In such a department the
men are always in readiness to answer an
alarm. They have their places on the
various vehicles, they understand per
fectly how to handle the paraphernalia
at their disposal and they know what to
do at the proper time. Thus valuable
time is saved and often a disastrous fire
Is prevented by the quick and Intelligent
work of the firemen. In almost every
case the work of trained men will prevent
losses that an untrained department could
not have prevented. AVhen the men- are
drilled, those whose duty it is to lay
lines of hose and make connections, know
exactly what to do and they proceed to
do it without delay or confusion. The
ladder men are trained to handle tne
ladders, the life line and the life nets.
When they know what to do and how to
do it, they can easily accomplish their
task. If they don't know what to do
they simply can t do anything.
"Portland certainly needs a paid depart
ment With the large buildings it -has,
a trained department is something that It
cannot afford to be without Should
there be a big fire In one of your large
rooming-houses I would fear for the con
sequences with the fire department handl
capped as it Is. How Chief Campbell has
handled the fires of this city as he has.
is more than I can understand. It has
Eimply been luck that has saved the city
from devastation by fires.
"Portland needs a paid department of
not less than 125 men and should have one
of 150 or ICO men. Portland Is a big city
and needs a large department to protect
it It also needs more fire stations.'
There are some portions of the city sadly
unprotected. These districts contain val
uable property and in at least two or
three there Is urgent need for stations.
At present the established stations are
far away, and the country the department
has to travel over to reach these unpro
tected districts Is such that little can
be accomplished In the line of speedy
work. The district about the site of the
Iewls and Clark Fair should have a fire
station. There will no doubt be urgent
need for it when the Fair opens. Besides
this, that district Is rapidly building up
and should have protection.
"I am glad that Portland Is awakening
to its needs and that steps are being
taken to secure a paid department"
HAY HELPS LONDON MARKET.
Secretary's Effort to Localize War
Has a Good Effect.
LONDON, Feb. 14. The Stock Exchange
passed through tho ordeal of the first
week of the war much better than had
been expected, and but for the heavy
pressure of sales from Paris and Berlin
-would not have been greatly disturbed.
The majority of foreign bonds naturally
had heavy falls, Russians being greatly
depressed, but Secretary Hay's efforts to
localize the war had an excellent effect,
and it is believed that a recovery in prices
will soon be established.
Fewer stocks were thrown on the market
than anticipated. Berlin operators threw
a quantity of American securities on the
market and other causes helped the de-
presslon of these securities, tut the mar
ket closed steadier.
Russian oil shares bad a heavy fall, but
the tendency on security in most of the
markets vras better.

HO KEUTRALS IN EEHGIOff.
Dr. Brougher Declares That All Must
Be For or Against Christ.
"The Moral Man and the Hypocrite"
was the subject of Rev. J. Whltcomb
Broughers sermon at the First Baptist
Church last night Dr. Brougher took for
his text Matthew, xil-SO, "He that is not
with me is against me," and held that a
man was -either in the kingdom of Jesus
Christ or that of Satan, because Jesus
Christ declared that there could be no
neutrality In religion. He said in part:
"This is called a Christian country. It
is not with infidels, agnostics or heathens
in particular that Christianity has to
contend most It Is that large class of
people who are friendly disposed toward
Christianity, but refuse to publicly Iden
tify themselves with the cause of Christ
They consider Christianity an Important
factor in our civilization. They will help
support a church In the community. It
raises the price of real estate and Its
Influence is better than a police force.
These people are friendly to the church
but they will not take a bold stand for
Christ Such people. If they recognize
their own position, would see that they
are simply living for self. If it is to their
interest to talk like a saint they can do
it but if it is to their interest they can
also "talk like the deiL" They want to
be neutral, but Jesus. Christ has de
clared that there is no neutrality in re
ligion. We must either be for Him or
against Him.
"In his argument with the Pharisees
Christ asserted that there are only two
kingdoms in the world, one is the king
dom over which God rules and Is called
the Kingdom of God, and the other the
kingdom over which the devil rules and
Is the kingdom of Satan. These two king
doms are diametrically opposed to each
other. One Is the kingdom of righteous
ness and the other the kingdom of un
righteousness. These two kingdoms are in
deadly combat for the supreme conquest
of the world. We must take our side
with one or the other. The principle of
right and wrong Is written "in indelible
letters on the heart of every man. Every
thought every word and every action
has Its moral quality and the battle of
right and wrong Is being fought out In
every man's soul. Jesus Christ Is su
preme in a man's life or else the devil
has been crowned king. Ei'ery person is
a citizen of one kingdom or the other.
If Great Britain and the United States
had been the only two nations since the
world began, every person would be an
Englishman or an American. It would not
be hard to tell In which kingdom we were.
A school-teacher asked a boy his na
tionality. He said: 'I don't know. My
father was English, my mother was
French, and I was born on a German ves
sel flying a Dutch flag.' His teacher did
not know his nationality. But with only
two kingdoms in the world, we would be
In one or the other. Every person Is
either In the kingdom of God or In the
kingdom of Satan. If you have not re
ceived Jesus Christ as your king, then
you must acknowledge that Satan occu
pies the throne in your life.
"There are lots of Dr. Jekylls and Mr.
Hydes In the world, people who want to
be one thing one day and another thing
the next day. We frequently hear of the
moral man who is not a professing Chris
tian say that he does not Join the church
because there are hypocrites in it When
a man tells me that he is as good as the
church members, I always ask him which
one. He usually picks out some old
hypocritical deacon and describes him.
I always tell him that I have no doubt
that he is as good as that man, but that
is no better than a hypocrite. In reality
there Is very little difference between the
moral man and the hypocrite. The hypo
crite Joins the church and Indulges in
the world sufficiently -to gratify certain
sinful desires. The mpral man stands for
the world and accepts the influences of a
Christian home. Christian church and
Christian civilization to keep him decent
respectable and out of Jail. One stands
with the church and steals the world,
the other stands with the world and
steals the church. You can pay your
money and take your choice.
What Jesus Christ wants are out-and-
out Christians. The age demands absolute
sincerity In the followers of Christ, If a
men is a Christian, let him acknowledge
It and come out on the side of Christ If
he is not let him acknowledge It and take
his stand with the devil. Don't try to be
a happy mixture of saint and sinner and
not much at that 'ro man can serve
two masters, for -either he will hate the
one and love the other or else he will
hold to the one and despise the other, le
cannot serve God and Mammon.' Christ
wants positive enemies and positive
friends. He issues his call and you must
choose. You must accept or reject him.
Christ recognizes no neutral position In
religion. Tho moral man and the hypo
crite both need to be out-ana-out ior
Christ Neither is all he pretends to be.
Both need to acknowledge their allegi
ance to Christ and crown Him king of
their lives."
