THE OBEGONIAtf, MONDAY, 'APBHJ 3, 190o.
WORK GOES ON
Evangelists Hold Large
Meetings.
CROWDS LISTEN TO THEM
Rev. Charles Stelzle Addresses
Laboring Men.
SAYS CHURCH AIDS THEM
Speaker Explains That the Labor
Movement Can Be Helped if La
bor Reciprocates the Affec
tion ofthe Church.
Never has such a crowd gathered at the
Men's Resort as yesterday afternoon- It
was not a crowd o habitues of the North
End such as is usually to be found at the
Resort, hut a gathering: of workingmen
who had come to listen to the remarks
of Charles Stelzle upon the question,
"Does the Church Help the Labor Move
ment?" Mr. Stelzle Is a member of the
party of evangelists that are conducting
meetings In this city, but makes It his
special -work to talk to the union labor
ing men, for which he Is particularly
qualified on account of having served an
apprenticeship at the machinists' trade
and' working as a master mechanic for
several years.
In his address yesterday afternoon Mr.
Stelzle did not speak from a text but
rather talked along the lines of a labor
union enthusiast. He explained his posi
tion by saying:
"I have "been a breadwinner since I was
11 years of age, and having spent eight
years as a machinist in the largest shop
in New York City, it has been my privilege
to present to ministers' associations and
to some of the largest churches in this
country the side of the workingmen. I
told the truth and my message was wel
comed. I found an eagerness on the part
of the churches to respond to the needs
of workingmen.
"But there is the other side the side of
the churches. I want to present It to the
workingmen. I shall be Just as honest
with you as I was with the churches. I
want to polnkout some misapprehensions
on your part as to what the church is,
and tell you what the church has to do
with the Tabor movement.
The Ideal Christian.
"I have talked with workingmen who
believed that the church is a scheme
to Increase the population of Heaven.'
They thought that the sum and sub
stance of the church's teaching was this:
4Be good; get saved, and. you will go to
Heaven.' But Jesus said. "He that sav
oth his life shall lose it. and he that los
Cyth his life for. my sake shall find (or
save) It. The Ideal Christian is not sim
ply trying to get to Heaven; he is trying
to get other -people there. Furthermore,
he is trying to bring something of Hea
ven into this sin-cursed earth.
"The church has a great social mis
sion. It is an Institution which not only
prepares men to die, but teaches them
how to live. Unfortunately, some work
ingmen have thought of it as something
which has to do only with sickness, death
and cemeteries. Christianity believes In
brighter homes, better schools, more beau
tiful cities and cleaner governments.
It has sometimes been 6aid: "The
church is composed of hard-hearted em
ployers who are always grinding out the
lives of their employes." There are more
than 17,000,000 Protestant church members
in this country. Of Roman Catholics there
are 9,000,000 more. Surely they are not all
of the employing class! Sometimes the
rich control the churches where they are
in the majority, or where they have been
placed In official position by the members
of the church, hut it does not always fol
low that because aman is rich he is
hard-hearted and cruel. Furthermore,
the poor man who has the necessary qual
ifications Is usually given tho place he
deserves in the church because the church
is as Teady to avail herself of a good
man as is the merchant and the manu
facturer. v
Employers in Churches.
It is admitted that some hard-hearted
employers are in the church. They have
come in because of the good company
they will get into. But they are not the
church. They are tho parasites in the
church. They might better be out of It,
so far as the good they do is concerned.
"But," somebody says, "they are the men
who support the church." Don't you be
lieve it! As a matter of fact, our churches
and great charities are supported by
Christian men and women of small means.
When a rich man gives $10,000 to a
church the newspapers all over tho coun
try advertise it, and the Impression has
gotten out that the church is supported
by $10,000 donations.
There are some workingmen who com
plain that Christianity is narrow. As a
matter of fact, it is the broadest, the
deepest, the highest thing in the world.
Whenever the religion of Jesus Christ ap
pears small or narrow or forbidding, re
member that you are not dealing with
the great system of Christianity, but with
some fragment which has been removed
from Its place.
The success of the labor movement is
due to the fact that Christianity has
blazed the way. It needed the missionary
of the cross; It needed Christian civiliza
tion to go before and prepare the founda
tion. Then came the labor agitator and
built upon the foundation laid by Christ
and his church, many years before. And,
strange to say, after the superstructure
had been raised, the building looked down
on the foundation which gave it support
and cursed it!
Suppose the foundation should suddenly
be removed? Suppose the church and the
conditions brought about through its in
liuence should suddenly be wiped out?
A city without a church! Would you
care to live in it? A city full of sa
loons, gambling hells, and places of vile
resort of every description, alluring your
sons and your daughters to certain de
struction! For I have noticed that when
the church is absent these are in evi
dence, and when the church is present
these rapidly decrease.
SROWDS ATTEND MEETINGS
Enthusiastic Audiences Listen to the
Evangelists.
The meetings at the Fourth Presby
terian Church yesterday afternoon and
night were unusually well attended. Dr.
Daniel 5. Toy addressed one of the larg
est gatherings of young people that has
ever assembled in South Portland yester
day and the singing of Frank Dickson
was very good.
Over in Alblna at Forbes Presbyterian
Church the interest manifested Is said
to be remarkable and the people of that
section are certainly giving Rev. Thomas
WILL ARISE "LIKE PHOENIX FROM THE ASHES"
Fred T. Merrill Says When Votes Are Counted People Will Sit Up and Notice IJim. .
PRED MERRILL says he never wore
a striped vest In his life, and that
the artist libels him. Thus one by
one the inconoclasm is robbing us of our
ideals. William Tell was-a hollow mock
ery, Washington did not chop the tree.
There exists a growing philosophy that
authenticity of the Adam and Eve epi
sode is not proven, and now it appears
that Fred Merrill don't wear a striped
waistcoat O Tempora! O Mores!
I asked Mr. Merrill why he is a candi;
date for Mayor, and he gave refreshingly
original and practical answers. He says
he wants to be Mayor, and contrary to
the approved custom it was not the "urg
ing" of myriad friends that got him Into
it. To be exact, he bravely asserts that
his best friends have tried to dissuade
him from running and advised that he
give -up politics altogether.
Notwithstanding this counsel Fred Mer
rill has got his ear down to the asphalt
pavement and is telepathlcally convinced
that he bears a majority of his fellow
citizens marking time to his music He
"believes that this majority will march
with him through thick and thin, even to
the crucial test of the ballot-box.
If this beautiful, abiding faith in man
kind be not misplaced, a very active gen
tleman who eschews striped vests will be
Mayor of this town after next June.
There should be a framed motto over
Fred Merrill's office desk where now there
is none, and the legend should be, "Hus
tle, for the Night Cometh."
This aspirant for the Mayoralty is
named, in full Frederick Thomas Merrill,
and he is Portland's most picturesque
politician. The responsibility of being
Alderman from the Third Ward has been
his for five years last past. During that
time he has hustled most assiduously.
He thinks he has lifted up his voice and
vote for right things in municipal gov
ernment. If outward manifestations can
be relied upon, no man is on better terms
wih his conscience than he. His official
virtue to him seems like unto that of
Caesar's voice and vote for right things
In municipal government. It is a matter
of history that he has been elected and
re-elected, which is significant.
To this incident Mr. Merrill "points
with pride." He says he is willing to
stand on his record, which he admits
finds him always working for the best in
terests of property-owners, wage-earners
and business institutions. In Fred's own
language:
"My business and personal career In
this community for 22 years has been an
open book to the people. I am honest and
fearless and attempt to hide nothing. The
oly difference between 85 per cent of the
men of this city and myself Is that many
of them are under cover.
"I am a Christian, and my business and
social motto Is the Golden Rule. I have
made a success of life by returning good
for evil always.
"My good Christian father has writ
ten me an appealing letter warning
me that politics, as a rule, makes ras
cals out of good men, but I have re
plied to him that perhaps In my case
the rule would be reversed and my
candidacy would give the reformers by
voting for me. an opportunity of doing
some good Christian work. At tha
same time getting on the inside with
a live business man and working hand
in hand with him in wiping out corrup
tion in Portland's politics and handling
vice in a business as well as a religious
way.
"I am a candidate for Mayor and
shall stand as the People's Independent
candidate. Myplatform will be a busi
ness, regulated open town, with the
requirement that those who dance must
pay the fiddler. '
"I am anti-graft, anti-crimp, antl
machlne politics.
"If I am elected Mayor I will give
the people of Portland a new deal and,
as Teddy Roosevelt says, a square deal.
That meanB an honest and fearless ad
ministration of the city's affairs. I will
close up the deadfalls and run the sure
thing contingent out of town. Notwith
standing the opinion of my enemies and
many of the good people of Portland,
I will give a better moral tone to this
city than it has ever had before. I will
keep up the good work of making bet
ter streets and better sidewalks and
equalize taxation so that the poor man
will have an equal show with the rich
man. I will give the liquor traffic

largest part of the city's running ex-

couragement possible.
The meetings in the ninth district yes
terday were well attended and particu
larly at Woodmen's Hall where a meet
ing of men only was addressed by Rev.
John H. Elliott. Tho singing of Charles
E. Rykcrt was a feature of the gathering
and tho sermon of Dr. Elliott was very
interesting. . '
At the Taylor-Street Methodist Church
yesterday afternoon to one of the largest
crowds of young men and women that
Rev. Charles Stelzle.
i
has ever gathered In a church In this
city. Rev. W. H. Bledrewolf preached
upon the reasons for leading a Christian
life from the third verse of the Stth chap
ter of Second Chronicles. The burden of
his remarks was that the Christian life
was tho best and happiest life and that -a
young man or woman could not afford to
live any other. At the meeting In the
evening at the same church Rev. Mr.
Blederwolf preached to another large
crowd of young people. The solos of
Harry Maxwell and Tils direction of the
choir wore the principal features of the
song service and tho sermon as given by
Mr. Blederwolf was most interesting.
The meeting for men only at the
Marquam Grand was attended by an ex
ceptionally large crowd. At least half
an hour before the time set for the open
ing of the services every seat in the vast
auditorium was occupied and the aisles
and rostrum were soon filled to overflow
ing. After half an hour of singing by
the audience and choir led by John P.
Hillis, Dr. Chapman took charge of the
meeting. He spoke of the gathering of
men at the Taylor-Street Methodist
Church Saturday night at which Daniel

penses the same protection as I would
the department stores and banks.
"I will aid the Chamber of Commerce
and the Civic Improvement Associa
tion to clean up and beautify Portland
In a businesslike manner at all times.
I will not be tied to or controlled by any
person, party, clique or corporation. I
will work earnestly and patiently to re
duce the taxes of the people, to lessen
the Indebtedness and increase the in
come. I will not make any compact or
contract before or after election with
the gambling fraternity or any other
fraternity, but on the contrary I will be
for the people and with the people al
ways." It will be seen in this that Candidate
Merrill places the matter squarely be
fore the people, without hesitation or
equivocation. If they want him after
that, well and good; if not, well and
good again.
There Is a theory that Fred Merrill
Is a young- man of wide experience, and
so he Is. He's a Maino Yankee by
birth and is 47 years old. He says his
earliest recollections are of wearing a
cut-down blue army uniform and play
ing about the big guns at Fort Preble,
which lies outside of Portland, Me. His
father was away in the wars then in
the Union army. Afterward he was
taken to Boston and later to San Fran
cisco. In San Francisco Fred grew up and
became the champion bicycle rider of
the Pacific Coast.
The Portland public sat up and noticed
him about 22 years ago, when he came
here to engage in tho engraving business
S. Toy told tho story of his life and said
that it was the greatest meeting of the
kind that he had ever attended. Mr.
Hillis sang, "Though Your Sins Be as
Scarlet," very effectively and the Chap
man quartet sang "His Love Can Never
Fall." The singing of both the quartet
and Mr. Hillis was by far the best that
has been heard during the revival meet
ings at the theater and the applause that
followed each selection plainly told that
the large audience appreciated the music
and wanted to listen to more. After the
sermon of Rev. Henry Ostrom upon the
"Everyday Man" cards were passed out
In the audience and all business men
present were asked to sign the agreement
to close their places of business from
11:30 A. M. until 2 P. M. Wednesday, and
about 150 signed.
It was announced that if necessary an
overflow meeting would be held at the
Y. M. C. A., but there did not seem to
be sufficient numbers present to justify
a meeting there and consequently a street
gathering was called In front of tne
Portland Hotel at Sixth street, at which
Rev. H. W. Stough spoke for several
minutes. The Chapman quartot furnished
the musical programme and Rev. J. E.
Snyder assisted In the services.
In the districts noU. mentioned else
where the meetings were well attended
and the people enthusiastic in their man
ifestations of religious matters. A xrnni
ber of cards were signed by newly ac
quired converts and at several of the
churches "after" meetings wero held with
splendid results.
SPEAKS TO WOMEN ONLY.
Dr. R. A. Walton Says Woman's
Sphere Is Character Building
'Traveling about this country. I see
considerable of hotel life, and have
come across many theatrical companies
of the kind that have many young
women with them.' I believe that the
beasts of the field have more respect
for themselves than people Jo In the
majority of theatrical companies trav
eling over the land. They look bright
In the gee-saws af the stage. In
wardly they -.are rotten. Pray for
them." " (Cries of "Amen!")
The speaker was Dr. R. A. Walton,
In addressing a mass meeting for wom
en and girls at the White Temple, yes
terday .afternoon. His words caused
a perceptible stir, but "ho did not pur
sue this part of the subject
"What is woman's mission -in this
world?" may be said to be the leading
question in Dr. Walton's address, and
his answer was that woman was a
character-builder, and was placed in
the world or the uplifting of man
kind. Poor old father, who lights the
fires in the morning before he goes
off to work, prepares the early break
fast, tolls for money to support tho
family, and In his -leisure Mme splits
wood and does the family washing,
was pot even mentioned by Dr. Walton.
His talk was mostly about mother, and
the opportunities and responsibilities
of motherhood. Ho told one story of
a woman, who Insists on placing God
with a man named Hollister. He Is an
expert engraver, besides many other
things, and he prospered in the business.
Later he ran skating-rinks, bicycle stores,
theaters and the like, at present devoting
the time he can spare from public duties
to retailing automobiles. He Is also a
farmer and has a place in the country,
where he raises things. On the strength
of his agrarian Interests he hopes to line
up the Arlington "Club vote.
Ups and downs are the common lot of
all, and to quote Fred's own language
again: "Although having had several
fires ajid business setbacks, he has, like
Phoenix, arisen from the ashes with more
vigor, determination and on a larger scale
than ever."
The parable of the light undera a bushel
long ago made a great bit with Fred Mer
rill, and his confession of faith Is, "ad
vertise." i
No resident of this town dare confess
such ignorance as not to know of him.
The public places resound with his fame
and the familiar glory of his dally tran
sits In klnetoscoplc flashes of automobile
hurry are as much a part of established
things as the transit of the sun.
Personally, Mr. Merrill Svears an air of
easy nonchalance. He has that courage
which rushes In where angels fear to
tread. He has the reputation of being a
fighter, a good winner and a game loser.
The broad catholicity of his charity Is
said to be a mantle of expansive propor
tions. He Is said to favor letting the
world wag so long as It don't wag too
hard. In conversation he Is versatile, but
not pedantic He Is as full of human In
terest as a melodrama and every whit as
first in her heart and life, while her
husband occupies second place.
"Many women think: their chief aim
in life Is to be beautiful, with the afd
of the milliner and dressmaker," went
on the speaker, "but they ought to re
member that the great need is not
beauty of face, but beauty of chiirac
ter. But if you, as a woman, think
that you will not have influence for
good without persoulil beauty, buy all
the articles sold in the drugstore and
use them. Man expects woman to be
better than he is himself. When a
man has lost all respect for woman
hooJ, he is already far gone on the
road to ruin. It has been said that
woman must be amiable, optimistic
humorous and pathetic. If In a city
there is a lack of moral sentiment,
woman can correct this If she will but
try. Take woman out of the world.
Who will follow? Man. He will fol
low If need be to another planet. God
has made woman to set up ideals."
An overflow meeting was held at the
First Presbyterian Church, where Miss
Ethel Lytic sang, a solo, and Dr. Clar
ence True Wilson preached. The
church was crowded with women and
girls.
CROWDS HEAR DR. CHAPMAN
Evangelist Addresses Three Large
Gatherings.
Throe of the largest churches filled
to the doors, and greater crowds gath
ored about the entrances eager to listen
o tho preaching of Dr. J. Wilbur Chap
man. That is the record of the meet
ings In tne third district last night. It
was announced that Dr. Chapman
would speak to men only at the First
Presbyterian Church at 3 o'clock, and
to women only at the same hour. It
was tne Intention of the evangelists to
huvj Dr. Chapman make a short ad
dress at the White Temple, and then
go to the meeting for men, but the
crowds of women that gathered at the
White Temple would not be satisfied
with a short address, and there were so
many upon the outside that really had
no opportunity of hearing Dr. Chapman
that another meeting was called at the
Grace Methodist Church, across the
street. This, too. was soon filled to
listen to Rev. J. L. McComb while
awaiting the arrival of Dr. Chapman.
At tne First Presbyterian Church Dr.
Chapman spoke to a w,onderful gather
ing of men on "A Call to Judgment."
When the sermon was over and the
plea made for those that desired the
prayers of the evangelists to raise their
hands, there was a great many re
sponses, and later several well-known
business men and citizens voluntarily
came to the altar and pledged their life
to Christ.
Interesting Services for Boys.
An interesting service for boys was
held yesterday afternoon at Grace
MeUiodist Episcopal Church, when
Rev. C. T. SchaeffeV spoke on 'The
Story of the Plugged TJuarter." He
I told. the. htyta hozc certain, smarter .of
spectacular. He has been "known to make
public addresses which produced effect,
and In every qualification which goes to
make up a picturesque character he Is
opulent. . He has Ambition left at the
post and Success has to send in a card
to get an audience with him.
He is an Interesting factor in the
Mayoralty canvass. He will not enter the
primaries because primaries are too com
monplace. From now on the "People's
Independent candidate" will be very much
in the public eye and ear. He will show
the Lewis and Clark management some
things in the advertising line never
dreampt of in their philosophy. His cam
paign will be a veritable Mardi Gras.
Bands will martially parade the streets.
Orators will proclaim on the commons.
Scurrying autos will carry the glad tid
ings of his candidacy from Alblna to Wil
lamette Heights. Megaphones will echo
it from crag to crag and the very walls
will show forth the excellent gladness
of it. He believes he will be elected. He
says a plurality of the voters are of the
same mind. Who can nay? Sages and
wiseacres arc at a loss for the language
of prophecy. Who can say that this fortune-favored
candidate with the very
stars singing together In his cause may
not be elected? Who can riddle the an
swer? Who dares a peradventure? It
may be that within the radlent precincts
of the dawn which Is to follow the day of
municipal reckoning, having "like Phoe
nix arisen from the ashes with more
vigor, determination and on a larger
scale than ever," Frederick T. Merrill will
be discovered crowned with the victor's

a dollar was coined in the United
States mint at Philadelphia. Pa., In
1S95, and how the bright-looking coin
was afterward for years a favorite
wherever it went. He pictured in an
impressive word-painting style how
the lucky quarter traveled from vari
ous parts of the world and was a wel
come visitor at all homes, until a bad
man bored a hole in the coin to steal
the silver and filled up the opening he
has made, with base motal. Then the

it was finally landed as -worthless In
the mint where it was first coined.
There it wns maijfc ovor again and

An interesting parallel was drawn be
tween this coin and a human soul.

eral solos. The Chapman quartet was
present at Ihe opening of the services and
gave one song.
Dr. Elliott gave a heart-to-heart talk
to the men of the audience, speaking on
the topic, "Hiding Places of Men." He
handled his subject without gloves, point
ing out that the Immoral life, the life of
Intemperance, the life of the gambler and
the life of secret evil were not conducive
to happiness here on vearth, nor for the
world to come. Men were simply hiding
themselves behind these things, but they

dodging them. Dr. Elliott in the course
of his discourse gave many touching in

ly the entire audience was affected, and
white handkerchiefs were used all over
the room. At the close of the meeting
about 40 went forward for prayers.
At Centenary Church, at 3:30, a largely
attended women's meeting was held. In
the Third Presbyterian Church Rev. C. T.
Schaeffer conducted a special meeting for
boys and girls, the auditorium being well
filled. Special music was provided at this
meeting by a large chorus of boys and
girls. Mr. Schaeffer talked to the audi

the Forbes Presbyterian Churches the
churches were all taxed to accommodate
the congregations. An overflow from
Centenary was conducted in the Second
Baptist. Dr. Elliott was able to speak at
both places, first in the Second Baptist
and afterwards in Centenary. Mr. Rykert
also conducted the singing at both places.
At Centenary Mr. Rykert had his largo
choir of over 150 voices.
At the Forbes, Sunnyside and Calvary
Churches there was no abatement In the
Interest, and the evangelists addressed
even larger congregations than since, the
meetings opened.
Selling Makes Generous Offer.
At the Industrial Institute, conducted
by the Council of Jewish Women, yester
afternoon, Mr. P. Selling, in the course
of the entertainment, offered to tear down
a part of the building and. reconstruct it
so that there would be better light In the
rooms, and to do it at his own expend.
His offer was greatly appreciated by the
Council of Jewish Women. The building
was imperfectly constructed, and as a re
sult the light In some of the rooms, es
pecially that occupied by the sewing class,
is very poor. Mr. Selling's offer was
thankfully received.

My Offer to
Kidney Sufferers
I will srtv you a fall dollar worth of my
remedy fre to try without cost or
deposit or promise to pay.
I could not make this offer a full dollar's
worth free If mine were an ordinary kidney
remedy. It Is not. It treats not the kidneys
themselves, but the nerves that control them.
The cause of kidney trouble ilea always in
these nerves. The only way to cure kidney
trouble Is by strengthening and vitalizing and
restoring thes kldn' nerves. That Is ex
actly what my remedy Dr. Snoop's Restora
tive does. Therefore I can make this offer
with the certain knowledge that every kidney
sufferpr who makes this trial will helped.
"tt'hen I say "nerves," I do not mean the
ordinary nerves of feeling, thought, action. I
mean the automatic nerves, which, night and
da, ungutded and unseen, control an dactuate
and operate every vital process of life. There
are the master nervea. The kidneys are their
slaves. Tour mind cannot control them. Your
will cannot away them. Tet when they are
strong, you are well; when" they are nit, you
weaken and die.
I have written a book on the Kidneys which
will be sent when you write. Thla book ex
plains fully and clearly how these tiny, ten
der "Inside" nerves control not only the kid
neys, but each of the other vital organs.
I have made my offer that strangers to my
remedy may know. It la not Intended for

How Is
YourHeart?
Is your pulse weak, too slow,
too fast, or does it skip a beat?
Do you have shortness of
breath, weak or hungry spells,
fainting, smothering or choking
spells, palpitation, fluttering,
pains around the heart, in side
and shoulder; or hurt when
lying on left side?
If you have any of these
symptoms your heart is weak

better without assistance.

"About January 1st, 1S02, I took
down with weakness and dronsr.
and gradually grew worse. I was told
by my family physician that my casa
was hopeless. My neighbors and fam
ily had ' given mo up to die. My
limbs and body wero swollen to one-
third larger than normal size, and
water had collected aronnd my heart.
For at least three months I had to sit
propped up in bed to keep from smoth
ering. I sent for Ave bottles of Dr.
Miles Heart Cure, and by tha tlma I
had taken them aH I waa entirely
cured. I feel better than I havo for
twenty years, and I am able to d?
