Scholarly Sermon Preached by
Father O'Hara at the
Cathedral.
AUDIENCE FILLS CHURCH
Trlest Shows That Popes Have Been
Maintained in Unbroken Lino
From First Century Down
to Present.
Father O'Hara last night at the ca
thedral preached on "The Catholic
Church 1800 Years Ago," to an audi
ence which filled the church. He de
scribed the Catholic religion of centu
ries past and compared it with that of
today. He declared that between Pope
Clement I in the first century to Pope
Pius X today, there is no breach of
continuity. The sermon of Father
O'Hara was recognized by the large au
dience as a scholarly production and
it proved to be absorbingly interesting.
In the course of his remarks he said:
In English-speaking countries the move
ment to acquire a first-hand knowledge of the
beliefs, customs and organization of the Chris
tian church during the early centuries of our
era must always be associated with the name
of Cardinal Newman. Before the appearance
of hie great work on the "Development of
Doctrine," In 1845, it was common to find
even scholarly men giving credence to the
view that Christianity became substantially
corrupted some time after the third century,
and could no longer be regarded as a legiti
mate development of the Christian church In
its primitive purity. At what precise time in
history this defection took place was never
quite accurately denned by those writers. It
might have been when Constantine, in 311,
swept official paganism from the throne of the
Western world; or It might be assigned with
equal plausibility to the day, nearly five cen
turies later, when Pope Leo brought the Em
pire of the West to life by placing the royal
diadem on the brow of Charlemagne.
Since Newman's day, however, there has
been a change of front by the ranks of schol
ars. A first-hand acquaintance with early
Christian literature has caused scholars to
recognize the fact that there Is no break
between primitive Christianity and v the Cath
olic church of later ages. So keenly Is it
felt that the Catholic church la historical
Christianity, that scholars like Harnock and
6abatler, who in our day have tried to . fix
the essence and spirit of Christ's message,
can evade the divine origin of the Catholic
church only by the violent hypothesis that the
apostles and perhaps Christ himself did not
grasp the kernel of Christ's message.
In order to realize the Identity of the Cath
olic churob of today with that of 1800 years
ago, we must make ourselves acquainted with
the monuments of Christian antiquity. We
hall begin thia evening with the epistle of
Clement of Rome to the Church of Corinth in
the year A. D. 06. Clement was bishop of
Rome, and this letter swas written to heal
'the detestable and unholy sedition" which
certain unruly Corinthians had raised against
their spiritual rulers. Although the Apostle
St. John vu still living, the bishop of Rome
In the year 06 considered it his duty to
rebuke a distant community In tones of au
thority and to command the authors of the
sedition to "receive chastisement unto repent
ance." Saint Clement's letter Is a plea for Chris
tian unity, but he recognizes that there can. be
no practical basts of unity apart from sub
mission to the episcopate. The office of bishop
and Its perpetuation, according to .Clement,
were divinely ordained.
Our apostles knew, through our Lord Jesus
Christ that there would be strife over the
name of the bishop's office. For this cause,
therefore, they appointed the aforesaid per
sons and afterward provided a continuance
that other approved men ehould succeed to
their ministrations (Cap. 44). This has always
been ths Catholic doctrine of apostollo suc
cession. The Catholic church has maintained an un
broken succession of bishops since the days of
the apostles, and the prayer for Christian unity
today, as In the days of Saint Clement, will
become effectual only when people become do
cile to the instruction of Saint Clement to be
submissive to their spiritual leaders, the bish
ops, the lawful successors of the apostles
whom Christ appointed to rule over his church.
PAVS TRIBUTE TO THE MOTHER
Dr. E. I. House Preaches Sermon on
Her Influence on the Race.
"No office in the world is so honorable
as hers, no priesthood so holy, no influ
ence so strong and lasting."
This beautiful tribute was paid to the
mother by Dr.. E. L. House, of the First
Congregational Church, in his sermon of
last night. "Good Old Mother" was the
subject of the sermon. A feature of the
services was the rendition by the choir
of the piece, "Our Mother's Way." Dr.
House said in part:
"To most of us, the word 'mother is
the synonym for all that is best, greatest
and holiest in the heavens above and the
earth beneath. How sweet her face; how
unstinted her self-sacrifice; how holy her
faith; how queenly her domestic throne;
how transforming her touch: how Christ
like her love! Happy and fortunate the
. child that had such a mother! The Re
public is safe in the keeping of a man
who has been safeguarded in his youth
by a pure, refined, cultured. Christian
mother. The best of all academies for a
child is its mother's knee, and the mother
as a teacher. The child that learns 'Our
Father at its mother's knee; that hears
from mother's lips the heroic and tender
stories of the Bible and of history, has
a well-spring of faith and patriotism in
his soul that no after-life, however hard
and fast and destructive, can dry up. It
Is Inconceivable, then, how a mother can
permit any other woman to deprive her
of an influence over her children that
time cannot destroy; yet this is being
done in some instances.
"The world needs more, of the mother
care. Souls are clay, the mother is the
potter; she can mold them into vessels of
honor, or shame, as she will. Souls are
fleets of the 20tlf century; the mother can
run up the banner of purity, and guide
them into ports of power and usefulness;
or she can run up the black flag of pas
sion, and run them on to the rocks of de
struction. The mother In her office holds the key
Of the soul, and ehe It Is who stamps the coin
Of character, and makes the being, who would
be a savage.
But for her gentle cares, a Christian man.
"Then the world needs more of the
mother-training. The world may not agree
with you. and society may not appreciate
your claims upon it, but in childhood, at
least, your children are yours, and If you
manasa them rightly, they may be yours
all through life. The mother has full
control of her children's reading when
they are young. It is an easy matter to
select stories which will cultivate the
taste for the best kind of literature and
make It Impossible for a boy to enjoy a
dime novel or a book of questionable mor
ality. The hoy who has a mother who
studies him as she would a fashion book,
is a fortunate boy. The girl whose mind
is filled with the good, and turns with
aversion from the bad. because her moth
er has thus directed her. is a young lady
who can rejoice In a noble mother and
CATHOL

In the prospect of a noble womanhood
herself.
"The world wants more of mother-faithfulness
and love. If the father be the
head and hands of the family, the moth
er is the heart. What the boy is in the
home is determined by the home, if the
parents are wise; but determined' by the
boy, if the parents are foolish. American
citizenship is not safeguarded, if the chil
dren make the home. The law must come
from the top of Sinai, or the calf will
surely be shaped at the base of the hill
by the unthinking children. Let the,
mother love, but not unwisely, her chil
dren, if she would save them and the
Republic."
DR. BEOCGHER OX WILD OATS
"Whatsoever a Man Soweth That He
Shall Also Reap" His Text,
Last night the White Temple was
crowded with people anxious to hear! Dr.
J. Whitcomb Brougher"s sermon on
"Wild Oats." He took as his text.
"Whatsoever a man ooweth that he shall
also reap." He said in part:
"My friends, the law is, 'Reap that
which you sow.' It Is a perfectly natural
result. If you sow Intoxicating drinks
you must reap a harvest of drunkards
with homes of sorrow, wives in misery
and children in disgrace. Where does the
annual crop of bums and thugs and
drunkards and dissolute men and women
come from? We as christian people
must bear our own part of the responsi
bility.
"Sow cards and reap gamblrs. Of
course some people disagree with me.
but one thing is certain. If you do not
use cards you would not gamble with
cards. The young man that becomes pro
ficient as a cardplayer at home easily
will be enticed into gambling when he
goes to live in a boarding-house far away
from home and friends. If my children
ever become gamblers with cards, they
can never do It and say that they learned
the game at home.
"A mother who showed her son a beau
tiful cut-glass vase she had won at a
social card party was brought to her
senses when her son said: 'That's noth
ing, mother. I won a twenty-dollar gold
piece at the club the other night.'
"Again, sow the round dance and reap
the german. Sow the german and reap
tne public ball. Sow the public ball and
you will reap degradation, shame and
disgrace. As someone has said, 'The
round dance is nothing more or less than
hugging set to music' I would not rob
young people of any pleasure that is
helpful, but hundreds of ruined girls have
testified that their first step downward
was taken at a public dance. As Sam
Jones says, 'I'm glad they call a modern
cotillion a german. It's certainly not
American. I m glad we had enough de.
cency and respect to give the thing a
lorelgn name.
"Sow the german and reap spider
legged dudes and ruined girls. You can
not sow evil suggestion and unholy de
sire without reaping the harvest of
ruined character and blighted hope.
"Sow the seeds of passion and im
morality and you must reap a harvest
of licentiousness. Sow the seeds of cigar
ette smoking and you reap the fiend
who soon passes on to the asylum. You
cannot sow the seeds of secret sin and
not reap publicly the harvest of your
misdeeds. He who would reap a happy
life, a noble character and glorious des
tiny must sow the seeds of holy ambi
tion, a pure heart and noble endeavor.
From such a sowing he may have a
glorious harvest.
DR. VROOMAN OX "SUFFERING'
Last Sermon of Swedenborgian Pas
tor Before Journey East.
Rev. Hiram Vrooman preached a ser
mon on "Suffering" yesterday morning
In the Swedenborgian ' Church, whose
services are held in Knights of Pythias'
Hall at Eleventh and Alder streets. Pre
ceding the eermon Mr. vrooman an
nounced that he will be leaving for Bos
ton this week to meet with a group of
political economists, most of whom are
leaders of national reputation in the ad
vocacy of the Government ownership of
railroads. He Is taking a leave of ab
sence of two months and expects to re
turn to Portland December 1 equipped
and authorized to inaugurate a vigorous
educational campaign In behalf of Gov
ernment ownership of railroads. This,
however, will not be allowed to interfere
with his regular church duties.
Mr. Vrooman took this occasion fur
thermore to emphasize the fundamental
doctrine of Swedenborglans that every
true member of the church must apply
his religion to life, and to perform his
civic duties to the extent of his oppor
tunities under his circumstances. The
duties of Swedenborglans, he said, are no
less than the rising to their opportunities
for unselfish social service. Hence he
himself could not preach this doctrine of
the application of religion to life, under
his circumstances, with an exceptional
opportunity opened to him for advancing
what he considers the greatest of all
immediate social reforms, the Govern
ment ownership of railroads, without be
ing a hppocrite. This he stated as his
reply to any who might offer adverse
criticism to his engaging In political work
while at the same time acting as a
clergyman.
The service of worship was somewhat
prolonged, but was enlivened by the re
ceiving of nine new members into the
church.
Mr. Vrooman took for his text Christ's
statement: "Except a corn of wheat fall
Into the ground and die, it abldeth alone:
but If it die, it bringeth forth much
fruit."
"The opinion commonly prevails that
suffering is always the direct result of
sin," he said. "This cannot be true, for
the sufficient reason that Christ, the one
perfect and sinless man, suffered more
than any other. The phenomenon of
suffering must be Interpreted in the light
of this luminous fact. Suffering may be
due to inherited evil when not due to
sin. Christ had inherited the evils of
humanity, and yet he never allowed his
strong evil tendencies to mislead him
once into sin. His suffering was due to
inherited evil.
"Suffering then may arise from sin or
from inherited evil. And there are two
spiritual uses which suffering serves.
The first is to assist in a positive way
the growth and purification of one's In
terior motives and purposes, to aid the
soul In its regeneration. The second is
to help in a kind of negative way by
restraining men in their spiritual descent
or degeneration.
"Jesus, who suffered more than any
man, also enjoyed more . rights here In
this world. His triumphs over evil and
his spiritual victories in behalf of human
salvation made Jesus the happiest of all
men in spite of his mixture of bitterest
suffering."

E
Councilman Masters Gives His
Opinion on B. Lee Pa
get's Attack.
CRITICISM IS NOT JUST
Says He Is Placed In False Light by
Brother in Taylor-Street M. E.
Church Xot Ashamed of
N His Record.
Councilman W. Y. Masters does not pro
pose to sit tamely by and allow his broth.
er In the Methodist Church. B. Lee Paget,
to heap abuse upon him for doing what he
considers his duty as a city father. He
says Mr. Paget overstepped the bounds
of common sense in his diatribe on his
acts as councilman. In no uncertain
terms he told The Oregonian last night
what he thinks of the other member of
Taylor Street Methodist Church.
Brotherly love has not existed for some
time between the two pillars of Dr.
Short's church, if the reports of the
friends of each man are to be credited.
Relatione between the two belligerent
worshipers at Taylor street have been
strained for a long time, it is said. Mat
ters were not helped any two weeks ago
when Influences supposed to nave Deen
set in motion by Mr. Paget succeeded in
edging Mr. Masters off the Board of
Trustees of Taylor Street Church. His
place on the board was taken by Mr.
Paget.
When the latter stepped Into the shoes
of Mr. Masters as trustee. It was hinted
that the action of Mr. Masters in voting
for- saloon licenses in his official capac
ity as a member of the license commit
tee formed the basis for the covert at
tack that was made on him in his hon
orary position as trustee, a place be bad
held lor some time.
I This might have been overlooked, but
when Mr. Paget added public insult to in-
Jury by his speech at the Methodist con
ference Saturday at Sunnyside too much
had been said. It was not for human
nature to Dear it in silence.
For a time Mr. Masters thought he
would overlook the outbreak and with
Christian fortitude turn the other cheek.
Finally he thought it best to explain his
position that he might not be placed in
a false light in the matter, and lest those
good brethren who said a loud "Amen" to
Mr. Paget's snappy remarks at the con
ference should be further misled.
Councilman Masters was seen at his
residence last night and was asked for
a statement concerning the attack made
by Mr. Paget. .
Calls Paget "a Fellow."
"Yes, I saw by The Oregonian this
morning that Paget had 'another attack'
at Sunnyside last night, but I suppose
the fellow cannot help it. When Paget
broke out' last February I declined to
be interviewed or to take any notice of
the matter.
"I have since found that a good
many people were misled by the state
ments made, into believing that I was
acting in violation of the rules of the
Methodist Church in serving on the
liquor license committee of the Coun
cil, but such is not the case. If it were,
Paget could easily compel me either to
resign from tho committee or with
draw from tho church, by preferring
charges against me in the church.
"The animus with which he follows
this matter would clearly indicate that
he would adopt such a course if he
thought he had a ghost of a chance of
success.
"The editorial In The Oregonian on
the subject last February said about
everything that there is to be said ou
this question and is unanswerable. The
fallacy of Paget's .position was so
clearly pointed out that I really
thought even Paget would Bee it.
'Paget's whole statement is based
upon a false premise. As a Councilman
I do not license saloons. The law gives
any citizen the right to conduct a sa
loon within the city upon the payment
of a license. As a Councilman I have
the right to say that a saloon shall not
be conducted In some particular loca
tion or by some citizen whom I think
will conduct a disorderly house, but I
have no right to say that no saloon
shall be conducted at all; for the lav
says that it may, and I have taken an
oath to uphold the law.
Ignorant of the Fact.
"The complaint Saturday evening
seemed to be confined to the fact that
I am a member of the liquor license
committee, but if the gentleman had
any knowledge of the duties and pow
ers of the committee he would know
that the committee only has power to
recommend to the Council and that
everything that is done is by the Coun
cil, consequently, to conform to his de
mand, it would be necessary for me not
only to withdraw from the committee
mut also from the Council. Thereby I
am barred by membership In the Meth
odist Church, from holding my office.
nucn is not the case. However, and if
it were, I should not long remain a
member of the Methodist Church, nor
do I believe that my church would sur
vive many years in this country if it
advanced such a doctrine."
Friends of the Councilman say that
the onslaught of the head and front of
the cold-water forces In Portland is due
to personal feeling, which is said to
date back several years and which had
its origin ln-a church dispute which is
now of long standing. That it still en
dures, and with It the undercurrent of
feeling between the two leaders in
Taylor-Street Church circles, is evi
denced by the ousting of the Council
man as a trustee and the election of
Mr. Paget to fill the vacancy, say those
familiar with the churcn and its af
fairs. "ROYAL CHEF" TOXIGHT.

BAPTIST SUNDAY SCHOOLS BE-
GIN MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN,
Movement Extends Over Whole Coast
and Is Started Auspiciously
In Portland.
Rally day exercises were held in all of
the Baptist Sunday schools In Portland
yesterday. Beginning with yesterday an
active campaign has been Inaugurated to
double the membership of the Baptist
Sunday schools by the first of the year.
and from the swelled attendance of yes
terday it looks very much as though the
wish of the workers will be realized.
The work of increasing the membership
is under the charge of James Edmunds,
who Is the Sunday school missionary of
the Baptist Church for the Pacific Coast.
After successfully starting the movement
in Portland, and after it has reached a
momentum that will carry It along. Dr.
Edmunds will go to the Sound to work
along similar lines there.
The attendance at all of the Sunday
schools of the Baptist Churches In Port
land for yesterday was very .encouraging.
Many of the old members, who have not
attended tne schools for weeks, and who
have been guilty of backsliding to a more
or less extent, showed up yesterday. It
Is hoped to interest all the old members
and to gain as many new members as
possible.
The superintendents of the Sundav
schools of Portland have set their high
water mark at double the attendance they
have now. before the first of t h a ven r
but of course if they reach this they will
establish another level and keep on work
ing. During the past week thousands of
circulars have been sent out to children
and young men and women, urging them
to attend Sunday schools. The members
memseives have taken a personal and
earnest interest in the crusade, insisting
that their friends attend. The movement
has been launched with great enthusiasm
and promises glorious results.
At tne White Temple yesterdav a snnrlni
Rally day programme was rendered It
was the same at the other churches. The
pastors or the respective churches attend
ed the meetings and helped to arouse en
thusiasm. Missionary Edmund ma th
best he could in attending the many ral
lies. He took part In the exercises at the
White Temple, Calvary Baptist and the
savier-street Sunday schools.
The campaign extends n loner thm .Hr.
Pacific Coast. More than 100 churches
have been enrolled. The plan contem
plates the reaching of thousands of un
taught children and young people of the
Coast with the living word and the living
Teacher.
