SALIENT POINTS ARE GIVEN Police and Health Are Features of Administration Upon Which the Chief Executive Dwells at Length in Document. Mayor Lane's flrat annual message to the City Council was given to the public yesterday. It Is a document containing about COW words and deals generally -with recommendations to heads of municipal departments. Speaking of the police force he says: In a gwwal way I have to say that the work ot the police force of the city has been good during the past year. "With, an added population of many thousands during the Ex position the peace and pod order of the city was well maintained and received much fa vorable comment from our visitors, and great credit la due to the entire force for that re sult. The ordinances of the city are being, on the wholr. well and thoroughly enforced. "While the box ordinance, the ordinance requiring the closing of saloons at 1 o'clock A. M., the ordinance agalnnt gambling and the ordinance against that paranlte class known as the macquereaur are now being enforced to the letter, the enforcement of all other ordinances has not been neglected. The ofCiccr of this department have been Instructed that the or dinances of this city are enacted by the Coun cil In the expectation that they will be strict ly enforced. The unvarying rule that neither "fear nor favor" Is to be shown to any person or class In the community In the enforcement of the laws has been brought to the notice of every officer and patrolman In the employ of the city. This rule i a Just one and should put the "force" upon a high plane of .ef ficiency. At any rate, whether It does or does not. It Is the only rule which will be allowed to govern under the present adminis tration. Of the Health Department the Mayor says: Annexed hereto Is the report of the Health Officer, and, as may be seen by hto report, the health of the city has been good, notwithstand ing the great Influx of strangers to attend the Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition, when more than 2,500,000 admissions were registered during the past Summer. It Is a pleasure to be able to say truthfully that Portland Is one of the most healthful cltiea In the world, and with one exception has the lowest death rate of any city in the United States. This is due In the main to the even mild ness of our climate and the purity of our water supply. That these conditions may con tinue and our record be not broken, careful legislation Is necessary more completely to or ganize the Health Department for a city already beautiful and soon to be great. I am quite certain that it your honorable body should organize this department along the lint suggested that very shortly this city would take rank as being the most healthful and with the lowest death rate of any, perhaps. In the world. With our beautiful scenery and equable climate, a residence In this city would coon be considered a thing to be sought after, and the result would be a matter "of financial benefit as well as personal pride to every resi dent of the city. A detention hospital for the care, of cases Huspected of being ill with Infectious dlaeases Is badly needed. During the late slight epi demic of smallpox the City Physician was put to much Inconvenience for the lack of a place where cases could be kept under Inspection for a few days, and at the same time not be exposed to direct Infection. One cafe, ow ing to an error In diagnosis upon the part of the family physician, found Its way to the peathouse, where a few days' observation proved It to be but a cae of Innocent ekln eruption. Such experiences are not pleasant and may at any time prove expensive to the city. Both the Chief of Police and the Health Officer call attention to the need of an emer gency hospital. It is nothing less than cruel and at times Inhuman to have the Innocent victim of an accident locked up in a cell awaiting his return to consciousness to estab lish the fact that he was not deeply Intoxi cated at the time ot arrest. There are no facilities at the Jail for the care of uch cases or for such emergency surgical coses as are continually being brought to the elation, and some provision should be made for them. Discussing the question of municipal civil service, the Mayor says: It seems to me that there should be & common-sense method, of examining applicant for positions In the public hervlce. Capacity and ntners are the real questions to be determined and it is Impossible to determine this by a purely academic standard. It is my belief that If applicants for the public service are se lected on account of their experience and practical capacity, without reference to their political or religlouH beliefs, that the spirit as well as the letter of the law has been complied with. In my opinion, if the Civil Service Commissioners do not adopt the best method ot selecting employes for the public sen-Ice they have failed in the performance of the duties of the position to which they were appointed and have failed to carry out the spirit as well as the letter of the law. The plans of the administration are thus et forth: It may be as well to state briefly the gen eral plan of administration of the city's af fairs which I have set out to pursue to far as they relate to that portion which has been entrusted to me. I shall deem the eaual execution of the city's laws as they exist upon the ordinance book to all alike, both rich and -poor, without fear or favor, so far as in my power lies, the mat ter of first consideration. The welfare of the public and it Interests will be considered of greater Importance than the gain of the private Individual at all times. Public franchises of public streets should never be parted with without full and proper compensation being made to the public, to whom they belong. An exact enforcement of all contracts be tween the city and all others to the end that neither the city nor the contractor suffer any Injustice. To accomplish this I am quite willing to meet more than half way all efforts in these direc tions upon your part. Big liog Crushes Man. OREGON' CITY, Or., Jan. 5.-(Spe-cial.) W. R.

WILL NOT ACCEPT (Continued From Page I- dam, reft of Its power for good. The whol position of the churches Is Involved in this question, for the steadily waning Influence of church and synagogue Is due In no small part. I hold, to the widespread belief that the pulpit is not free, and that It Is "sub ject to and under the control'' of those offi cers and members of church or synagogue who, for any reason, are powerful In Us councils. The question, therefore. "Shall the pulpit be free or shall it not be freer Is of Infinitely greater moment than the ques tion of the occupancy of your pulpit by any man whosoever, and It Is the deep convic tion that this is so that has impelled me, now that any thought of a direct relation between us Is definitely set aside, to address you In earnest language as men equally con cerned with myself In the well-being and Increasing power of our beloved religion. rulplt N'ot to B Muziled. When a committee of Ave, constituting a majority of the board of trustees of the con gregation, came to me for the purpose ot ascertaining whether a call to occupy your pulpit would be accepted, and. If accepted, upon what terms, I stated that I had but one stipulation to make with respect to the terms of such call, and that I was ready to leave everything else to the Judgment of the board of trustees and the members of the congregation, merely adding that a written contract ought not to be deemed necessary between a congregation and Its minister. The one stipulation I made in the following words: "If I am to accept a call to the pul pit of Temple Emanu-El, I do so with the understanding that I am to be free, and that my pulpit is not to be muzzled." I made nc other stipulation; upon this I insisted. Coun sels of prudence, which were urged upon me. suggested that I should have taken this free dom Tor granted, but viewing the manner In which my btlpulation was met by the mem bers of the committee. I deem it most fortu nate that I anticipated the situation which has arisen. My stipulation that, if I were to occupy the pulpit of Emanu-El. I must be free, was met by the statement ot the committee since formulated In the appended letter, "the pulpit shall always be subject to and under the control of the board of trustees," which statement of the committee was not disavowed at either of two subse quent meetings of the board of trustees, held December 4, 11)05, and January 2, lflOG. Be tween this position and my own conception of the pulpit, as laid down In my stipula tion, there is an Irreconcilable difference. It was Indeed held by some members of the committee that the phrase, "the pulpit shall always be subject to and under the control ,of the board ot trustees" was "an .empty formula," or "a mere figure of speech," which Interpretation, however, the chairman of the committee at once emphatically dis avowed. Even though this phrase were ad mitted to be an empty formula. 1 would still be under the moral necessity of refuting to maintain a fiction of making a compact In terms of falsehood to teach in a place dedi cated to truth. But how can a form of words so threatening to the liberty of a minister of religion be regarded as a mere figure of speech? The very fact that It was Insisted upon Is evidence that It was not In tended as a formula, and. It It be intended seriously, as It clearly Is. I have only to re peat that no self-respecting minister of re ligion could consider a call to the pulpit ot a church or synagogue on such terms. Such a formula, taken under any construction that may be put upon It, is not chiefly hu miliating to me. who unequivocally reject its terms, but much more humiliating to the congregation In the name of which such terms are offered. "Rabbi Must Give Way." For let us consider the obvious meaning of the words "the pulpit aball always be subject to and under the control of the board of trustees" in the light of the para graph of the communication appended, which reads: "The logical consequence of a con flict of Irreconcilable views between the rabbi and the board of trustees Is that one or tbs other must give way. Naturally, It must be the rabbi. It goes without saying, there fore, that at such a Juncture he should have the privilege of resigning. His failure to exercise that option necessarily implies an acquiescence by him In the views of the board of trustees." It Is not said that In the event of a conflict of Irreconcilable views between the rabbi and a majority ot the members of the congregation the rabbi must give way, but that the acceptance of the terms "the pulpit shall always be sub ject to, and under the control of, the board of trustees' Implies acquiescence on the part of the rabbi In the views of the board ot trustees In the event of a conflict of Irre concilable views between him and them, or the necessity of exercising the "option" or "privilege" of resigning. Th board of trus tees thus assert for themselves In the last analysis the custodianship of the spiritual convictions of the congregation. When I asked the members of the committee to define the terms "subject to and under the control of the board ot trustees," the sams thought was expressed by them In saying that. If some members ot the congregation should differ from my views as expressed In the pulpit and should make representation to that effect to the board ot trustees, the lat ter would expect me either to alter, or to be silent touching the views to which objection had been raised. Stated more simply, the rabbi, whose whole life is given to the study of and preoccupation with religion and morals, must always hold his views subject to revision or ratification at the hands of the board of trustee, or ot any number, howsoever small, ot the members of the congregation having sufficiently formidable Influence with the board ot trustees. In other words, the mere fact that a certain number, not necessarily a majority, of th members of the congregation, or certain members of the board of trustees, might ob ject to his views is to compel retraction, silence or resignation, without the slightest guarantee that reason and right are on the aide of the objectors. The mere statement 1 of the case Is Its own severest condemnation. Pulpit Not Free Is Impeteat. A. fundamental error underlies the posi tion set forth In the communication here with appended with respect to the office of the ministry. The chief office of the minis ter, I take It. is not to represent the views of th congregation, but to proclaim the truth as he sees it. How can he serve a con gregation as a teacher xave as he quickens the minds of his hearers by the vitality and Independence of his utterances? But, bow can a man be vital and independent and helpful. It he be tethered and muzzled? A free pulpit, worthily filled, must command respect and Influence: a pulpit that la not tree, howsoever filled. Is sure to be without potency and honor. A free pulpit will some times stumble into error; a pulpit that Is not free can never powerfully plead for truth and righteousness. In the pursuit of the duties of his office, the minister may from time to time be under the necessity of Riving expres sion to vl!ws at variance with the views of some, or even many, mtmbtrx of the congre gation. Far from such difference proving the pulpit to be In the wrong. It may be. and ofUmes Is, found to signify that the pulpit has done Its duty In calling evil evil and good good. In abhorring the moral wrong of putting light for darkness and darkness for light, and In scorning to limit Itself to the utterance of what the prophet has styled "smooth things." lest variance of views arise. Too great dread there way bo of secession on the part of some members of a congregation, for. after all. difference and disquiet, even schism at the worst, are not so much to be feared as that attitude of the pulpit which never provokes dissent be cause It Is cautious rather than courageous, peace-loving rather than prophetic, time serving rather than right-serving. The min ister it not to be the spokesman of the congregation, not the message-bearer of the congregation, but the bearer of a raesage to the congregation. What the contents of that message shall be must be left to the conscience and understanding and loyalty of him In whom a congregation places sufficient confidence to elect him to minister to It, Minister Is Not Infallible. In the course of the conferences held be tween the committee and the writer. It was urged that the pulpit has no tight to demand exemption from criticism. The minister in Israel does not regard his utterances as in fallible. No minister will refuse to correct an opinion though he will take the utmost pains to achieve correctness in substance and form before speaking when reasons are ad vanced to convince him of his error. Nor will he fail to welcome criticism and invite difference of opinion to the end that truth . may be subserved. "The pulpit halt always 1 be subject to. amd under the control of. the board of trustees." In the light of the Inter pretation afforded by the subjoined com munication, implies something radically dif ferent from the view that the minister Is not above criticism. Namely, the teacher of re ligion and ethics must bend before the brute arbltrlum of any opinion, which the majority of the board of trustees or any chance group of members of the congrega tion may hold, providing it be In Irrecon cilable conflict with his own. To declare j that In the event of a conflict of Irrecon cilable views between the minuter ana tne board of trustees. It Is the minister who must yield and not the board. Is to assert the right not to criticise the pulpit, but to silence Its occupant, and, above all. to imply that the board ot trustees are always sure to be In the right, or else that the convictions of the board of trustees shall stand, whether right or wrong, and that the minister must acquiesce In these convictions, right or wrong, or else exercise the "option" and "privilege" of resigning. The Jewish minister. I repeat, does not speak fx cathedra, and bis views are not supposed to have a binding force upon the congregation to which he minister. He is to expresn his convictions on any subject that oomes within the purview of retigloa and ethic, but tfaeoe convictions do not purport to constitute a creed or dogma to which a congregation must in whole or In part sub scribe. But the board ot trustees asserts the right to define and to formulate the vlewo in which the rabbi must acquiesce, or. falling to acquiesce therein, resign. Let us aesume for a moment that It were possible for the board of trustees to come to an agreement with re spect to Its convictions upon Reform Judaism for which Temple Emanu-El may fairly be ald to stand, though theoc convictions cannot be ascertained and reduced to unity rave In the broadetft sense. Let us. furthermore, assume that my convictions are substantially In ac cord with those held by the present board of trustees. Is it not clear that under the terms "the pulpit shall always be subject to and under the control of the board of trustees," the rabbi may In time be called upon to acqui esce In views ot the board of trustees 'at variance with those held by them today. Not only Is the rabbi expected to sign away his present Independence, but to mortgage his In tellectual and moral liberty for the future. Stated In briefest possible terras, the rabbi Is asked to subscribe to a statement of pres ent and future convictions of the board of trustees. The demand Is put forth that he subscribe to a blank page the contents ot which are to be determined, net on the basis ot his understanding ot and loyalty to the teachings of his religion, but by "tbt- views of the board of trustees." This is Indeed to attempt to rob the pulpit of every vestige of freedom and Independence. X am asked to point the way and my hands are tied? X am asked to go before and my feet are fettered. Rabbi Must Give Way. It Is idle rhetoric to say, as does the com munication appended, that the words, "the pulpit shall always be subject to and under the control of the board of trustees, "do not mean that the board ot trustees win call upon any Incumbent of our pulpit to sacrifice or surrender his principles or con-lctlons," In the face of the menacing declaration immedi ately following that. In the event of a con flict ot Irreconcilable views between the rabbi and the board of trustees, the rabbi must nat urally give way, his failure to exercise the option of resigning necessarily implying acqul encedce by him In the views of the board of trustees. If I could bring myself to accept a call to the pulpit of Emanu-El upon such terms, and this Is unthinkable, the board of trustees would never find It necessary to call upon, mo to surrender my convictions, for assent on my part to the stipulation, "tho pulpit shall always be subject to and under the control ot the board of trustees," would Involve such a sacrifice of principles aa would leave me no convictions worthy of "the name to surrender at any subsequent behest of the board of trustees. It Is equally meaningless to declare that "la the past this haa never led to any friction between our rabbis and our board of trustees." Where a rabbl Is re duced to the choice of acquiescence In views, right or wrong, because held by the board of trustees, or of silence, friction Is Impossible The absence ot friction In the past between the rabbis and the board of trustees of Temple Emanu-El proves that either the pulpit has been circumspect or that It has been so ef fectually muzzled that even protest was Im possible on the part ot aa occupant who had subscribed to such coodlUoas. A third possi bility obtains that the board of trustee has had the. forbearance of tho angels with the occupants of the pulpit Insofar as they have not abused the power which they claim as their own. As for the forbearance of an gels, which has possibly been theirs. I wish to make clear that I would not deliver my conscience into the keeping of the angels. My conscience Is my own. In It an Unwritten law? Finally, to hold that the subjection ot the pulpit to and Its control by the board of trustees Is a written or unwritten law ot th congregation Is to maintain that the pulpit of Emanu-El never has been free, and this, I am sure, does not accord with the memories that stilt remain alive In me and In others of high-minded. Independent, revered teachers, who have occupied that pulpit. One of the former occupants I have Intimately known, and were he living today he would repudiate the claim that he had for many years been the occupant of a pulpit which was not trie. I have sought to do you the Justice ot help ing you to realize the seriousness of the situ ation which you face. This situation. I be ileve, you have not planned; Into it you have, however, permitted yourstlves to drift. That this appeal to the spirit of my people at Its highest shall not have been made In vain is my hope, for the sake of our religion, which a free pulpit alone can truly serve. X am, faithfully yours. STEPHEN S. WISE. The letter from the committee of in quiry referred to by Dr. Wise follows: New York. Dec 1. 1000. Dear Doctor: At your request, I am form ulating the substance of what was mid to you last evening by the committee of Inquiry appointed by the, board of trustees of con gregation EroanU'El. The committee waited upon you, for the purpose of ascertaining whether or not. in the event that It should be con-Iuded by the board ot trustees and the congregation, to extend to you a call to occupy our pulpit. In conjunc tion with Its present incumbent, Itev. Joseph Silverman, ich call would be accepted. In making this Inquiry, It was stated to you by the committee that la view of the tradi tions of the congregation and out of consid erations of the church policy which had al ways prevailed therein. It was considered as a necessary condition, applicable to any incum bent of the office of rabbi In the congrega tion, that the pulpit should always be subject to and under the control of the board of trus tees. This wan considered to be particularly Important, In view of the circumstance, that the requirements of the congregation were such as to render It essential that there should be two Incumbents of Its pulpit, of equal rank and performing Identical functions. It Is fair to say that this announcement of our congregational law Is not a mere figure of speech or an empty formula, although In the past It has never led to any friction be tween our rabbis and our board of trustees. It dees not mean that the board of trustees will call upon any Incumbent ot our pulpit to sacrifice or surrender h!a principles -or convic tion. The converse or the proposition Is equally Important that the board of trustees shall not and will not sacrifice or surrender the principles or the convictions which It offi cially represents. The logical consequence of a conflict of Irreconcilable views between the rabbl and the board of trustees Is that one or the other must give way. Naturally. It must be the rabbl. It goes without raylnr. therefore, that at such a Juncture he should have the privilege of resigning. Ills failure to exercise that option necessarily Implies an acquiescence by him In the views of the board of trustees. Our Insistence upon the phraseology which I have employed and which Is a mere adoption of the terms In which the unwritten law of the congregation la couched. Is based upon the Idea that it is but fair to the rabbl and to the congregation that both shall understand at the outlet the nature of the contract whfch exists between thrm, and that the former shall enter Into the pact with his eyes open, to that he may never have occasion to complain should a difference ever arise, that he was placed In the "position of either sacrificing bis principles or of becoming a martyr to what he may pqsslbly describe as the Intolerance of the board of trustees. The committee likewise believes that without in any way detracting from the dignity of the rabbl or of the congregation, both of co equal Importance, whatever understanding Is reached between them, should be perpetuated by some form ot writing, whether It be by correspondence, memorandum or formal agree ment. The very fact that In our several con ferences there has arinen the necessity of de fining the language used by the respective con ferees Indicates tbe wisdom of such a course. With best regards, I am. very truly your., LOUIS MARSHAL!- Dr. Stephen S. Wise. "Wins Honor at Johns Hopkins.

LINKS ARE FORGED Harry Orchard Is Bound by a . Net of Evidence. STEUNENBERG HIS VICTIM Detectives Trace Bombs to Accused Man's Boom Ex-Govcrnor Had Premonition Death Awaited Him, and Was Troubled. BOISE. Idaho. Jan. 5. (Special.-) The chain of evidence against Harry Orchard, alias Thomas Hogan, In the ex-Governor Steunenberg murder case Is growing rap idly link by link. There is no doubt In the minds of officials or of citizens that the man Li. guilty of manufacturing, and placing the bomb which caused the death of the ex-Governor, but the evidence so far Is all circumstantial. "The evidence which we are now able to submit." said Captain Swain today. "Is that which I believe will convict this man of the assassination of Frank Steun enberg before any fair-minded Jury, but we are going to take no chances or leave no possible loopholes that could possibly admit of his escape. There Is additional evidence to be had. and we will get It. It Is now fully believed by the members of the family that Frank Steunenberg had some sort of Intimation of a plot against his life, and It Is thought that he had been warned that ho would not live to see a new year. This theory Is not authenticated by any word of the deceased before his death, nor by anony mous letter or note found In his effects, although a thorough search of his late letters has been made for such evidence. This theory is based upon his peculiar and extraordinary actions during Friday evening and Saturday. Mrs. Stcunen berg says that the Friday night before tho murder her husband's mind rnust cer tainly have been troubled with some un usual matter, for he appeared nervous and could not sleep. He tossed about in bed, and finally arose, his wife accom panying him. They lighted the lamp and read several passages of Scripture be fore retiring. Captain W. S. Swain has Increased his private force here by the addition of two men belonging to his Spokane force, and Is sparing no efforts or expense to appre hend and gather evidence to convict every man connected with this murder. He expressed a belief that he will be ul timately successful, but believes that the task before him Is a large one. "It will take hard work and time," he said. It Is hinted, although the report Is not confirmed, that Orchard's attorneys will try to prove that he Is Insane, and that the deed Is the result of the planning of his diseased brain. It Is regarded by the officers, however, as highly Improbable the defense will take such a course. This report probably started from the fact that a letter was received from a for mer warden of the Colorado State Insane Asylum at Pueblo, which stated that he believed Orchard had formerly been an Inmate of that Institution. This warden wrote from Denver, and requested that Orchard's photograph be forwarded to him for Identification. Orchard's Attorney Delayed. BOISE. Idaho. Jan S.
