SCORES LLOYDS CRITICS Writer Says Church Dispute Should Have Been Kept From Public. PORTLAND. Aug. 5. (To the Editor.) The recent action ot the Episcopal Convention in electing Dr. Lloyd bishop coadjutor of the diocese of Oregon, and the sutewiuent aatien of a few Individuals who were op posed to that election, has been well styiod by one of the church journals as "a tompert In a teapot." Thefe jarne church Journals have disposed, of the case satisfactorily to all churchmen who take those papers and read them, but the numerous persona who do not take them In this community have only had for their guidance the various statements from both side, as published In The Orego nlan, and these have been so numerous and conflicting and Indefinite that It seems to the writer he would be doing a good thing at Icaat to the puWlc If he-'ehould attempt to give his opinion of the whole business. The right to object Is Inherent In every man or set of men. and this right couW eas ily have been exercised by there gentlemen who chose to .object to the election. In a per fectly legal, proper and ecclesiastical way. The laws of the church provide a mode for doing this. Every standing committee, every blahop of the chureh. has a voice In the con firmation of any candidate lor the position. Furthermore. Individuals, committees r churches, independent of this, can formulate and ferward to the presiding bishop their objections, and they will be considered. It la not necessary' nor is It loyal to the church, for any man or t of men to fir to the local newspapers to air their vlewa to a disinterested but ravenous puMfe. re that it can Ml it over voder Its tongue and say. "see how these Christians love one another." Not only this, hut they wore not staWe in their views, for la leas than 2 hours it was announced that they had withdrawn their objections, and the incident was decttred to be happtly cked. But It aid not stop here, for another 2i hours developed a protect against the unfortunate priest, calling la question hie Integrity and feusiaoes aptKude. and even hta friends Wt called: upon te appear in print ovor their own names, aaktng tor a fuspenston of judgment until. a they say la polities, another county could be heard from. Verily, poor Dr. Lkd was Mkoly to he crashed if even he should fall into the hands of his friends. They did not neem to he able to cultivate the art of ftiionce. but must have their nay so long as the other fallow dW. never realizing that though they were pouring ell upon the trait Wed waters, it wax kerosene oil and would hum. And it dM hum. The next thing, wc learn that a meeting was heM in a hack parlor tftwt think of it!) in wMeh the matter was gone over in a AmdcM way. and the suitfect was treated and tb terrible' accusation made that the poor Doctor should and oouM not aecept the oSiee be cause he was gottwg a larger salary whore ho I?, and that as he had ten children he eouW not powlblj manage the affairs of the diocese and live on a ie?s salary. It was aim declared that he w unat because he waH not known to the church; that his career was limited te a town in Pennsylvania, whore ht record in the church was and has been ertabtished and known by ever 5008 of the clergy of the church, through a chureh pub lication which Js a standard publication, and has been for many j ears and in which his own record Is fully riven. I Inclined to think that unfortunately Dr. Lloyd has poor advisers. For why thla great publicity of matters which belong exduaiveiy to the church records? Why should his sup porters take notice of things which belittle the matter among those who are not con cerned? Why did they not let the matter take the proper course and be sottled under the form prescribed by the laws, of the church? The election was accomplished hand somely, the mau and his wife bad come to w promptly, and a reception was given for him well worth? of the name, he had ac cepted and had found favor with our ven erable bishop, and had Rone home with a heart full ot edf-eaerMce under the belief that we. Me people, were united and had extended te Mm every encouragement. Why rtieuld any one. whether he be a priest in a large church or .a priest In a amal! one. object? Why should they not ray with St. Paul. "None of then things move me." and bide their time. It Is a matter of regret that Dr. Lloyd should feel called on to appeal to -the pre siding bishop, but that he has done so eaa but mean that things hare gone so far that he feels called upon te ask -for a vindica tion. So far ar I know, he has declined the call, and there S nothing in the lo eeee of Oregon or among those who have stirred up this "tuS" worth his while or likely to injure his standing among Intelli gent church people throughout the country, or interfere In the suocoss of his work, or In the opinion of the undersigned. One thing they have done, and they ean get what Christian comfort they please out of It they have deprived the diocese of Oregon out of a truly loyal man, a Christian gen tleman and a most worthy prelate.

SLEUTHS ARE INACTIVE Pooh-Pooh tho Opportunity Which Might Have Led to the Appre hension of Thief Who Robbed Mrs. Wert. As usual, the local detective forco has turned down the only valid clew it possessed with refaroncc to tho identity of the thiof that robbed Mrs. Louis Wert the other day. They took no notice whatever of the oplsode oc curring at the City Treasurer's office, whereby a man claiming" to be a stran gor from New Tork changed a new $20 bill that had been issued by a Califor nia National bank, a,nd whose actions were otherwise of a suspicious char acter. The matter was reported to police headquarters at once, but not a single detective responded, and It is under stood all pooh-poohed the incident without reference to any Investigation whatever. The officials of the Mer chants' National Bank consider it ex tremely significant in view of the fact that Mrs. Wert was paid the 1460 in new 529 bills, and that it is more than likely some of thora were from banks of neighboring states. In addition to this, the man who visited the City Hall and talked with Treasurer Wcrleln was seen to slip the bill from a well lllled purse before entering the Treas uror's .office, where he claimed that It was all he had, and told how much trouble he had experienced In getting it changed, assuming from this that the rosldents o this city were unac customed to pajer money, when It Is a well-known fact that there Is hardly a cigar store or other place of business in town, irrespective of the banks, that would have hesitated a second in changing the money after being as sured that It was genuine. Keeps "Under Cover. Another thing that makes the situa tion more interesting is the fact that whoever applied at the City Treasur er's office for the change has since taken good care to remain under cover. Wore he honest in the transaction. It Is argued, he would come forward without dolay and establish his Iden tity. He Is keeping In the dark now, not through fear of any city detective, hut because he realizes that every reader of The Oregon Ian Is looking for him. and that the only ohance of es cape he would have In the event of attempting to change any more 520 bills would be by falling Into the hands of some city detective. A well-known thief-taker now in Port land looks upon the city treasury' oplsode as a very important clew, and says the least the local detectives could have done would have been to follow It up. He says the town Ss full of notorious crooks from all parts of the Union, and hints that If the detectives employed by tho city do not know this It Is because they are asleep, and this Is a charitable view to take of the situation. No thief iof notoriety is going to hang aroudd a hotel. His natural rendezvous is the lodging-houses, and the proper thing for the detectives to have done after the Wert robbery would have been to keep In touch with all the well-known lodging-houses, with a -view of finding out whether any of their guests had taken sudden departure. Again, the expert pickpockets operate on streetcars going to and coming from the Fair, and also among the crowds that congregate at the racetrack. In the lat ter Instance they wait for the winners, as is shown by the row behind the book makers' stands after the last race, and operate accordingly on the, return trip. Robberies Which Arc Concealed. At the Fair grounds and other local points It Is claimed that no robberies worthy of the name have been committed, but It Is significant that thlB Is because they are hushed up right away, and those reporting them are told not to give it away to the newspapers, thus deluding them with the Idea, that there Is a c banco of recovery, and any publicity would ruin this chance. Scores of them have been reported, only to reach oblivion in this manner. During a National political .convention at St. Louis several years ago. It Is no torious that one of the ablest thief takers in the land, objected to any Im portation of detective because it would be associated with such an unusual In flux of pickpockets and crooks generally. Says Railways Must Bo Built. Henry Habn. president of the Wadhams & Co. and a member of the railroad committee of the Chamber of Commerce predicts the end of railroad rule In tho State of Oregon, unless Mr. Harrlman PURE RADIUM The Wonder of the Medical Age THE ONLY ABSOLUTELY PURE RADIUM TREATMENT TUBES EVER "BROUGHT TO THE PAOLPIO NORTHWEST, Di rect From the Famous Paris Laboratory of the Celebrated Dr. Rous, Have Just Arrived at the X-RADIUM MEDICAL INSTITUTE INDORSED BY LEADING PHYSICIANS AND SOMJEONS IN AMERICA AND EUROPE Cures the Most Rebellious Diseases When All Other Remedies Fail and Hope Abandoned LIQUID SUNSHINE.

He emphati cally stated that unless the railroads become active and did their share In the development of the state, that at the next session the Legislature will take a hand In the situation. Mr. Hahn calls attention to the fact that there has never been a measure passed by the Leg islature retarding the railroads and he pointedly says that the people of Oregon have been too easy with the Harrlman system. Mr. Hahn calls attention to the bitter feeling that Is growing against a cor poration that has waxed rich on the sub stantial growth of Oregon, and says that the time is at hand when veiled asser tions and promises will not do. He says that the people wont connecting railroad branches to new districts and will have them or know the reason why. STATISTICS OF FORESTS ' Government Will Give Particulars of All Products of Woods. WASHINGTON, D. C. Aug. 11. The annual value of the forest products of the United States, as enumerated In the twelfth census. Is nearly 4S7S.COO.000. If to this were added the value of the firewood, farm material and other forest products for which no returns are available, a very much larger figure would be shown. Thus, as a direct source of wealth, the forests of the counfry rank nearly with the mineral products as second to the farms. In addition to monetary value, tho forests pf the country have an Im mense, though not exactly calculable, value at? a source of future supply and as a protective covering for watersheds. Forest products are Indispensable to mankind, and their steadily increasing price surely Indicates that the demand Is encroaching upon . the supply. It is urgently Important to the nation that tho yearly consumption of forest products and the amount of available Umber yet standing should be known. In accordance with Its policy of on couraglng the preservation and proper use of the forest, the Forest Service Is aiming to secure statistics for publication In a report In the hope that co-operation with the industries concerned will make possible an annual report eptltled "For est Products of the United States." This proposed report would give, by states, regions, and species, the cut and ship ments of lumber, shingles, lath, cooper age stock, tics, posts and poles during the year; the stock on hand at the close of the year; and also the amount of wood used In the various industries for which wood furnishes the raw material, and the value of tho products. It would also give information concerning the amount of stumpage in the hands of lumbermen In various regions, how long It will last at the present rate of cutting, the extent of damage by forest -tires, and other Im portant matters, 'relating to the forests of the country. In order that the expense of collecting the statistics for this report shall not be excessive, nearly all the data will be obtained through correspondence. The names of proprietors of logging camps, sawmills, pulp mills, woodworking plants, and other manufacturing establishments for which wood Li the raw material, will be secured from the Bureau of the Cen sus. At the close of the present calendar year, a question card will be sent to each proprietor to be filled out with answers relating to his particular line of business. The replies will be held strictly confiden tial and only state totals will be pub lished. Tills work is of such vital Importance to the lumbermen that the National Lumber Manufacturers' Association, whose members produce approximately one-third of the entire lumber output of the United States, will co-operate with the Forest Service In the collection and compilation of the statistics, in so far as they deal with lumber and shingles, as to cut. shipments, and stocks on hand, and for this purpose the association will open an assistant secretary's office In Washington this autumn. In announcing the plan to the members of the affiliated associations. Secretary George K. Smith said: "The announcement Is made at this time In order that all members of affili ated associations may prepare themselves to answer these questions when asked, and that they will take personal Interest In seeing that their friends and neighbors, who are manufacturing lumber and shin gles, but do not affiliate with any manu facturers association, support this move ment and make It a pronounced success. I feel sure that every member will real ize the Importance of this co-operation and give It his enthusiastic support." Suggestions and communications con cerning the proposed work will be gladly received by the Office of Forest Products Forest Service. Washington, D. C. WHEREJTO DINE.

ARE JAPANESE CRUEL? Instances or Brutality to Sick and Diseased. Leslie's Weekly. The pnrof, to my mind, that the Japan ese as a people are inherently cruel lies in the fact that the grossest inhumani ties, such as would draw a protesting crowd in any other country, seem to pass absolutely unobserved on the streets of Japanese cities. I was asked the other day to deliver an address before the la dles of the Japanese Society for the Pre vention of Cruelty to Animals In Toklo. and at the Instant I rather welcomed what seemed to me an opportunity to tell about a few of the atrocities I have my self seen perpetrated during my years residence In the country; but when I out lined my Intentions I was told that they would never do; that as a foreigner I must say only nice, complimentary things to my audience; I must confine myself to stories of cruelties In other lands and gain my point by observing with pride that such things dould never happen in an enlightened land like Japan, where the people are gentle and full of sympathetic understanding for the sufferings of the least of the creatures of earth. But it takes longer than a year, even in this country, to learn well the art of indis cretion, so I declined the proffered honor on the plea of my Inability to meet the requirements. I could not remember ever having seen In any other country any thing that could be compared to the ex hibitions of brutality that are so common over here. To begin with, the Japanese are cruel to themselves and cruel to each other, and their standard of mercy seems to be so low that they cannot recognize as cruel ties things which Impress us as atrocities. But If a member of a family happened to be stricken with leprosy, or any other loathsome and Incurable disease, he or she was thrust mercilessly from the house and forced to go out on the highways, away from the villages, to gain an uncer tain living by begging from Infrequent pedestrians. Even now It Is not on un usual thing to see a horrible, jwaly, crum bling wretch doubled up In the dust by the roadside, holding out a withered, trembling hand to chance passers-by who never seem to notice. I myself have seen things which turned my soul sick and made me wonder If this Is a civilized na tion aspiring to the highest Ideals of 20th century development. An equally conspicuous evidence of Jap anese heartlessness Is the manner In which Insane people are treated. Up to a very short time ago there were no Insti tutions of any sort provided for these un fortunates, and they were confined In open cages like wild beasts and allowed to starve and freeze, or famish from thlrat and burn up In the hot Summer sun. as the case might be. Such abject cruelty cannot be believed of sane human beings, but In Japan It Is not by any means a thing of tho past. VERY LOU RATES EAST. O. R. t N. Announce Cheap Rate to Buffalo August 1-t and 15.
