THE MORIXG OREGOXIAN. FRIDAY,, MAY 22, I90o. lo BISHOPS D SGUSS NAPiY WORK. Duties of Laymen and Clergy Considered by Episcopal Convention. SESSION WILL END TODAY Next Year's Council Will Meet at Spokane Woman's Auxiliary to Meet Today to Listen to Ad dress by Bishop Scaddlng. At the afternoon session- of the Primary Council of the Eighth Missionary Depart ment, held yesterday in St. David s Epis copal church, consideration was given to the general subject, "The Success oi tne Missionary Campaign Dependent on the Strength and Loyalty of the Home Base." Addresses were delivered by Bishop Wells, of Spokane, Judge Williams and W. A. M. Van Bokkelen. of Ban Fran cisco, on the responsibilities of the clergy men and laymen in the missionary work of the church. In the discussion of the question, The Appointment Plan." which was taken up later In the afternoon, addresses were made by Bev. N. B. W. Gallwey. of San Mateo. Cal.; Rev. J. P. D. Llywd, of Seattle, and Rev. A. K. Smith, of Ellens burg. A resolution was passed, naming Spo kane as the meeting place of the 1909 Council of the Eighth Department. Speak ing on the relation of the laymen to the missionary movement, Judge Williams pointed out that the two responsibilities of the laymen are to contribute to the support of missions and encourage others to do the same. Dhe great problem of the church, he said, is how to secure the co-operation of the communicant. It Is rendered difficult because of the selfish ness and sordldnesa of the people. Missions Need Men's Aid. A large part of the session was devoted to the discussion of the method of ap portioning the mlsBtonary support. The opinion prevailed that the success of the plan depends ultimately on the Individual. Several delegates expressed the opinion that the success of the apportionment plan is hindered because it does not reach the men. It was pointed out that the nnances of the church cannot prosper without their aid. Believing that the presence of Bishops of the large Eastern dioceses would be Influential in arousing interest to the mis sionary efforts of the Eighth Department, a resolution was presented by Bishop Spalding, of Utah, urging upon the board of missions the desirability of having Bishops and clergymen visit the various sections of the department and assist in the missionary work. At the conclusion of the session Bishop Nicholls conducted the special prayer ser vice for the Buccess of the growth of the missionary spirit throughout the depart ment. The sessions yesterday morning began with the celebration of the Holy com munion at 7:30 o'clock. The business session was opened at 10 o'clock. Rev. I,, o.

Statements have been compiled by the Portland National banks that show the local Institutions to be in splendid condition. Reserves are large, in some cases as high as 51 per cent of the total deposits. As the law requires a re serve of only 25 per cent, this is a splendid showing. At the last call of the Controller for a statement of the condition of the National banks of the country, de posits in the three local National banks aggregated $22,042,505.70. The total on May 14 was $21,388,421.28.

Methodist Protestant Church originated the proposition for the union of the body with the M. K Church, Rev. Dr. Lewis, president of the Methodist Protestant General Conference, replied: I want to know who means to insinu ate that I have been a party to a dis honorable action." Defending his position. Dr. Lewis said: "Painful must be the duty that makes you come to this conference and make It appear that some man is a sneaK. i ten you you cannot put me inthat attitude. I am not sorry for what I have done. I am here to take the full responsibility for my actions. 'GoBsip has been going round the con ference room end whisperings have fre quently reached my ears that when the church union question came up there would be something doing.

MAY FORFEIT ITS GRANTS Committee Decides to Determine Power to Inflict Penalty for Ob structions Placed In Way of City Contractor. Taking the stand that the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company is wilfully or by neglect hindering street improvement work by placing obsta cles in the way of contractors em ployed by the city, the street commit tee of the Executive Board at its meet ing yeeterday afternoon announced that the City Attorney would be appealed to for the purpose of determining whether or not the city has any redress against the corporation. If pos sible, an attempt wilt be made to pen alize the railway company by taking away certain portions ot its franchises where complaint of obstruction is made. R. L Sabin, of the Board, was author of the suggestion, and he received hearty support from Mayor Lane. Al though the Mayor was the most en thusiastic supporter of the plan put forth by Mr. Sabin, the committee, as a whole, acknowledged its willingness to allow such proceedings to be insti gated. The issue arose over the presenta tion of two petitions by the Pacific Bridge Company, asking for an exten sion of time in completing work under way on Chapman street, from Spring to Elizabeth, and on Kllllngsworth ave nue,, from Union to Patton. In the former case the company asked for 30 days to complete its work, while 60 days was asked on Kllllngsworth ave nue. The company has in the past pre sented numerous petitions asking for extension of time, and when its most recent request came before the- com mittee 'yesterday afternoon that body wanted to know the grounds on which it was based. Bach petition laid the fault of the uncompleted work to the railway company. It is declared that the railway company failed to lay new rails on Chapman street as ordered, and this delayed the work of the Pa cific Bridge Company, according to the complaint. Failure to place .'stone blocks between the rails on Killlnge worth avenue, the bridge company maintains was responsible for its in ability to expedite work at that place. After the meeting- Mr. Sabin said: "Time and time again we re ceive reports from contractors work ing in various parts of the city on street work saying that the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company is tailing to carry out certain agree ments stipulated in Its franchises. It is noticeable that whenever street work is held up the railway, for some reason or other, is at fault. It is in order to find out if the city has any redress In such cases that It is pro posed to conrer with the City Attor ney." Mayor Lane said during the discus sion that whenever the railway com pany is asked about such matters It persists in giving out excuses that are not at all satisfactory, and he insisted the company should be made to pay the penalty.

Tht) Disease Approaches Stealthily, th Decline In Health Is Gradual and Unless the Tonic Treatment la Taken. May End Fatally. Nothing in medical science is mors direct and more reasonably certain than the action of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in. cases of sjitemia, a disease which is liter ally a condition approaching bloodless- ness and which ll neglected.

Every thing I ate felt heavy in my stomach, gas formed on it and I had no appetite. My hands and feet were cold, I was troubled with dizzy spells end my tips and cheeks turned white. I had severe backaches at times and lkwas hard work for me to bend or stoop over to pick up anything. My sleep was restless, my head ached a great deal and I grew quite weak. "I was sick about a vear before I be gan to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills. They soon helped me and I used them until cured. My appetite became hearty, I grew strong and have since been entirely well. We consider the pills the best blood-builder and tonic medicine to be had."
