DEPLORES RIOTS
AT SPRINGFIELD
Dr. Luther Dyott Speaks cn
Race Wars and Mob
Violence.
PARTLY FAULT OF COURTS
Laxnns of Law Enforcement and
Trick of Lawyers Assigned as
Keasona for Summary Pun
ishment of Crime.
The deplorable Incidents of the Spring
field race riots were touched upon by Dr.
Luther R. Dyott in his sermon yesterday
morning at the First Congregational
Church. The speaker expressed deep re
irret at the conduct of the riot leaders.
He nevertheless alluded to the problem
the negro presents by his new condition,
and the difficulty of people in a commu
nity such as this of appreciating fully
! the difficulties of the white people of
; Springfield, where the negroes are numer
ous and of a lower intellectual and moral
standard. He believed these regrettable
occurrences were to be prevented by re
forms in the administration of the pres
ent Judicial system, rather than by resort
ing to repressive measures.
Dr. Dyott's address was In part as fol
lows: Not Equal of White.
It la the duty of a Nation to harmonlae
th dtvrrsa element constituting- Us Na
tional life. We may. and do, have elements
far below the standard. One of these ia
the ble-ck man. Black people, when taken
altogether, are not the equal of white peo
ple Once In a while, more frequently than
that, perhape. you will find a black person
who prove himeelf superior to this or that
white person.
A black roan may have a white soul. A
white man may have a black souL It ia
better to be a black man with a whit
, soul than a white man with a black soul.
But the negro does present a problem by
hi very condition, and it must be con
ceded that In those communities where the
negroes are few, and far beyond the aver
age of their race, decent and law-abiding.
It mutt be conceded that such communities
cannot wholly understand Just what the
whit peopl bav to contend with. In places
where th negroes are numerous and far
below the negro roan or woman her and
there, reflecting credit upon his race, and
of whom are Justly proud aa an Ameri
can cltiaen.
Some other negro are not far removed
from th brute, If w are to grade the man
by the conduct of the man. But no mat
ter what he may do, race riots and such
conduct m we are now witnessing In Spring
field. 111., are deplorable In the extreme.
Borne of th citizens of Springfield are
shocking th civilised world. Even If th
black roan la a brute, th whit man has
no right to be an anarchist, though bis
anarchy be In the name of chivalry.
Laws Are Too Lag.
Let criminals be punished according to
Jaw, rather than the madness of the law
less -who, when It suits them, curs anarch
ist and anarchism, and then again turn
to anarchists themselves and Insult Justice
with passions born In hell. At th sam
time It should be remembered that while
law respects th rights of even a criminal.
It Is on account of tricks and aubterfuges
of some so-called lawyers, who disgrace
their profession by trying to defeat the
nds of Justice, or delay the same Just as
long aa possible; It Is because of these
things, partly, that men with hot heads
and murderous hands forget themselves snd
decency and law and right, and become
guilty of the very things they would In
their aan momenta condemn In others.
We should be more sensible and expe
ditious In th enforcement of our laws
everywhere. After all this It must be ad
mitted that this or that section of our
country may bav its problems, and even
Its rao problems, which the people of an
other section cannot altogether appreciate.
For example, the people of New England
cannot understand the negro problem in
the Southern States aa well as the peopl
of th South do. This may apply In some
measure to the disgraceful behavior of soma
of th peopl In Springfield. There may
be some extenuating features of this horri
ble matter. For the sak of Eprlngfleld let
us hope so.
But Springfield has little or no more
right to mak discord, stained In blood, in
our National Ufa than bad th people of
an Francisco some time ago, with refer
ence to the Japanese question. The parents
of those children In the public schools had
a right to protest against some things there.
Persons living at a distance did. not under
stand the "Inside facts' of California's
question. Neither do persons living In the
East understand some of the things with
reference to the Oriental aa well as those
persons living along th Pacific Slope do
understand, th same.
California Had a Grievance.
California did bare a grievance which th
East could not understand, and which Japan
could not understand, and we may have
been nearer to war with Japan than most
persons thought.
Whatever may be your opinion of Theo
dore Roosevelt, there are some of us who
hall always feel that it waa chiefly through
him that war with Japan was averted.
"Honor to whom honor is due. Now, In
spite of any discord anywhere In th life
of the Nations, or of a Nation, or of
chore he, or of communities, or of Homes,
or the Individual, w may, and should, find
harmony. We can find It by harmonising
life with God. and all th facts in har
mony with Him.
TALKS OF ELDER BROTHER
PASTOR SCORES THOSE TOO
CONTENTED WITH SELF.
Iter. Harold Paulson Delivers Final
Sermon of Series on Parable of
Prodigal Son.
Rev. Harold Pattison, of Hartford,
Conn., preached the last of his series
of sermons on the Prodigal Son, at
the White Temple last night. He will
leave tonight for Oakland, Cal., where
he is to speak at the First Baptist
Church next Sunday. The following
Sunday he will speak for Bob Burdette
in the Temple Auditorium at Los An
geles.
As Mr. Pattison arose to speak last
night on "Elder Brothers and Their
Sisters," he was greeted by a large
audience, similar to those that have
listened to his sermons for the last
thsee weexs. He said that he had
come to feci in Portland as he did in
his home city. Ho said members of the
White Temjle had treated him royally.
He said in part:
As w. read this parabl. you will se that
th storr of th. Prodical Son waa told by
Jesus not so much tor the benefit of prodi
gals aa for the benefit of elder brothers.
By ref.rinf; to the first verses of the chap
ter we see that the parable waa spoken to
the Pharisee and scribes because they
marveled at our Lord for receiving sinners
and eating with th.m.
Not all the elder brothers lived In our
Lord's day. We all enjoy belaboring- a
man who dwelt In the Garden of Eden, or
in the Ark, or In Egypt, or Palestine and
la long since dead, but when one refers
to modern sinners It Is another question.
It doe not take much courage to turn the
limelight oa the mistakes of Moses, or on
the daxk spots In the lives of Noah. Abra
ham, Judaa Iscarlot snd the elder brother
la ur Lord's parable, but U la another mat
ter when we talk about the elder brother
who happens to live In our day and per
haps next door to our home, or wears our
slied hat and shoes.
Far be It from me to ever attack a
moral man." There may be enthuslastlo
preacher, who do this, and my own opin
ion Is that we have too few of them. I
wish we had more. The trouble -with the
elder brother was that there was a mur
mer In his heart when his younger brother,
who had wasted his substance, began to
come to the front again.
The good news should have made him
glad It only mad. htm angry. How unlike
the father, rejoicing In his son's return, is
the elder brother.
How a few sins will tarnisn many vir
tue. nd how tha faults of the elder broth
er obscure the many really excellent Quali
ties In his character.
Again we see his contrary character in
the fact that th. fathers entreaty should
hm hrmiiht tilm In did It keep him out 7
w often wonder st God's grace to dls-1-
pated prodigals. My own wonder is greater
at uM l grace to iu-iiiiicic --. . -.
that the elder brother thought a good done
to another waa a slight done to himself.
"Thou never gavest ma a kid that I might
make merry with my friends."
Surely this man had the "exaggerated
ego" of which we heard so much In the
Thaw trial. The elder brother was on.
of those men who because they are not
prodigals think they are a little better
than other people. Tnese etaer Drotners
sro very hard on all sins except their own.
It Is true elder brothers don't g.t drunk.
but many of their children preier xne .a
loon to their homes. Of course elder broth
ers never commit adultery, but marriage
does not always appeal to them as a sacra
ment of klndnena and self-devotion. They
don't lie. but they often speak the truth
when It is not necessary. They may not
break the Sabbath themselves, but they
make everyone in the house with them
bate It. Perhaps the elder brother never
learned to swear, hut I will undertake to
say he often made other people want to.
Now I have tried to be fair to the elder
brother, so if he Is here tonight he win

not mind my saying I am sure that he
knows he has very few friends. Tet that
younger brother of his, with all his faults,
will make more friends In a month than
he will In a lifetime. In answer to the
father's entreaty did the elder brother
come In? The story closes leaving him on
the outside. But I hope he went In and
greeted the younger brother with the words,
"You have brightened our father's heart.
The house has never seemed the same as
before you left it."
GULLS LETTER A CLASSIC
DR. G. X. LUCCOCK PREACHES
ON PAUL'S MESSAGE.
Epistle to Phllipplans Discussed In
Last Night's Sermon at First
Presbyterian Church.
Dr. Q. N. Luccock, pastor of tha First
Preabyterian Church at Oak Park, 111., a
suburb of Chicago, delivered the sermons
at the First Presbyterian Church yester
day morning and last night. Last night
he spoke on "The Heart of a Great Man."
while he prefaced the morning- sermon by
remarking upon his acquaintance with
Dr. Arthur J. Brown and Edgar P. Hill,
former pastor here.
Paul's letter to the Phllipplans was the
subject of last night's sermon. Dr. Luc
cock said in part:
The man who does things Is Justly ac
counted great. His speech may be con
temptible and his presence weak, but deeds
talk. So also Is he great, even greater
than the other, who Is able to have ugly,
mean things done to him and still keep
sweet and go on achieving. The heart of
a man who was genuinely (rut by both
of these testa Is revealed in a beautiful
letter to his friends. He was In prison.
They sent him a gift for his comfort. He
sent them a letter. They received the richer
gift.
The church at Phillppl has utterly per
ished. But for Paul's letter It had never
been known to the later world. To have
earned and received and had handed down
to posterity this lhtle letter Is a monument
nobler than cathedral spires. Paul could
not write without writing greatly. Before
the pen which he took up to write his ap
preciation of a. timely present was laid
down. It had dipped Into the deep places
of theology, and the letter whfch was to
have been a simple "thank you" became
one of the classics of Christian literature.
He himself explains that he thinks of
his friends In the terms of this letter "be
cause he has them In his -heart." If you
want a look Into the heart of a great man,
read Phlllppiana Read It all at one read
ing. It is brief easy, uplifting reading.
Think of It. not xner.ly aa a book In the
Bible, but a letter of friendship, written
in acknowledgment of a gift. Its sentences
coming warm from the heart of a grate
ful friend. The letter readily carries the
reader back to the great things which this
man did. via, the opening of a continent to
a new civilization. There at Phillppl Paul
began to create the new Europe, it also
shows the greatness of the man in keep
ing sweet when horrible things were being
done to him. When he began work In that
city he wss mobbed, and he might now
have bared his arm while writing of happy
memories In Phillppl and showed scars of
the rods laid upon him there. But his pea
keeps dripping honeyed words of friendship
for the people of prophet-mobbing Phillppl.
That's the bigness of tho man's heart.

FEAST OF CHURCH
St. Lawrence Honors Its
Patron Martyr.
SERMON BY FATHER O'HARA
Speaker Refers to Early History of
Catholics and Great Work of
Conquering Paganism for
Christianity
The annual feast of St. Lawrence
was celebrated yesterday In St. Law
rence Church with a solemn high mass
at 11 o'clock. The services were con
ducted by Father Hughes, pastor of the
church- assisted by Fathers Mlerke and
Daly. The sermon was preached by
Father O'Hara, who paid high tribute
to the character of the martyred Saint
Lawrence. He referred to the work of
that churchman in spreading the doc
trine of Christianity and his efforts in
behalf of the afflicted and the widows
and orphans of his time. Father
O'Hara's sermon was in part as fol
lows:
A wonderful thing. Is It not, that we who
are irathered here today on the confines of
the newest Weit should be assembled in a
spirit of fellowship with a humble youth
who was put to death In old Rome 16H cen
turies ago! What is there !n common be
tween the latest phase of human society ana
that terrible decade of expiring polytheism T
Dvnastles and empires, cultures and litera
tures have driven one another from the
arena of history. Only one Institution spans
the Intervening centuries. The Catholio
Church is the only cosmopolitan rorce mar,
has withstood the revolutions of nigh 2000
years. It is, therefore, as children of the
same Catholic Church for obedience t
which St. Lawrence suffered martyrdom,
that we today claim brotherhood with that
heroic humanitarian.
For If the church links the ancient world
with the modern "by Its long history of
teaching and governing. Its continuous and
conscious self-Identity, it does so no less
strikingly by the golden chain of Christian
beneficence which it has woven into the
very texture of Its history. When St. Law
rence was summoned by the pagan perse
cutor to show him the treasures of the
church, he searched for three days through
the streets and alleys of Rome for the poor
whom the Pope had placed under his special
protection. On the third day he gathered
together a great number of them and placed
them in rows, the decrepit, the blind, the
lame, the maimed, the lepers, the widows
and orphans; then he went to the prefect
of Rome and bade him come and see the
''treasures of the church." Religion, clean
and undeflled before God is this; To visit the
fatherless and widows In their tribulation.
It misrht almost serve as a definition to say
that the Church of Christ is the mother of
Christian beneficence. And history will bear
out thedeflnltion.
In the Roman Empire Christianity was
confronted by the most appalling spectacle
.of slavery known to human records. In the
pagan view the slave had no rights to nu
mane treatment nor to marriage nor to life.
For more than two centuries the church
kept before masters and slaves the truth
that they were equals before God and in the
Christian assemblies, and when at Saxa
Rubra by the Mllvlanridge the sun went
down on the world of paganism and rose on
a Christian empire, the status of the slaves
had been transformed. It was the spirit of
the church that dotted the empire with
hospices where relief was extended to the
sick, the homeless poor and abandoned chil
dren. The same spirit dictated rigorous leg
islation against the relentless and grinding
usury of the money-lenders and gained for
the bishops the title of "Fathers of the
poor." Then came the centuries of social
disorders following on the barbarian inva
sions when the energy of Christian life cen
tered In monasteries where the traveler was
sheltered, the poor relieved, the orphan
reared, the sick cared for and a haven of
rest provided for all who were weighed down
by spiritual or corporal misery.
To a subsequent age addicted to luxury
and selfishness and avarice the message of
the church was Interpreted by St. Francis
of Aasisi, irhom men of such different
schools as Matthew Arnold and Fabatier
proclaim to be the highest exemplification
of the spirit of Christ yet attained among
men. While St. Francis was so wins; the
seeds of a widespread social reformation, the
great pontiff. Innocent III, brought Guldo of
Uontpeller to Rome to found the first city
hospital, and Innocent's example was imi
tated in practically every city of Europe. It
was In this connection that the agnostic
scientist Vlrchow observed: "It may be rec
ognised and admitted that It was reserved
for the Roman Catholic Chnrch, and above
all for Innocent III, not only to open the
bourse of Christian charity and mercy In all
Its fulness, but aJso to guide the life-giving
stream Into every branch, of human life In
an ordered manner."
The forerunners of the modern Visiting
Nurses Association were the lay sisterhoods
known as the Beguines. who were organized
for the care of the sick In their homes. In
organizing the Sisters of Charity, fit. Vincent
de Paul gave to the relief of misery the
most effective ministers of charity the world
has ever known. His work Is continued to
day In the 100,000 Institutions for the ailing,
the aged, the orphan and magdalen under
the care of those noblest of God's noble
women the sisterhoods of the Catholio
Church.
T AS TIE
DR. W1XSOX SHOWS HIS METH
ODS OF DOLYG GOOD.
He Answers Question Why Christ
Left Many Things Undone
While on Earth.
In him address yesterday in tha First
United Presbyterian Church, Dr. A. W.
Wilson, pastor, gave a review of
Christ's career as a healer, referring
to the many miracles wrought by him.
Dr. Wilson's sermon was in part as
follows:
I noticed In an editorial of one of our
papers the other day the words, "He went
about doing good." followed by the cynical
criticism, "why did he not do more good?"
I was startled, and said to myself, "this is
criticism gone mad." Wer not his days
filled with acts of kindness, deeds of love,
words of comfort? Were not his nights
broken with unrest by calls for council and
to administer to humanity? Wes not he so
pressed with wor.es of mercy and love that
he had scarcely time to eat or for conse
crated prayer? Did ever he miss a chance
of doing good?
I find several Instances where he healed
only part of the multitude; therefore, there
was some ground for the question. "Why
did he not do more good?" Was he partial?
Was his power insufficient ? He used r.o
material methods of healing only by the
power of his word or touch of the hands
and even this was not necessary, as he could
heal at a distance without seeing the pa
tient, and others were healed by touching
his garment
There are many things In the Gcepel of
Christ hard to explain, by the finite mind,
but there has nothing ever been said about
Jesus that has made so mark d an Impres
sion on the world as Peter's summing up of
the three years of public ministry by the
simple statement. "He went about doing
good." "Why did he not do more gord?"
why did he heal tho few or the many, and
not the whole multitude? IkT he fear
Herod ? Afraid of ncthlug. Ho lived In
that d erf oct love which casteth out far.
Of Herod, least of all. Christ's mission waa
not an earthly one. and tne performing of
miracles or administering to the physical
life was merely incidental. He rebuked life
of mere materialism, ard bade us "seek first
the klndgom of heaven." and the seeking of
that higher Uf was the uluxusta aim of
His mission.

FIRE IN VALLEY, WASH., DOES
$60,000 DAMAGE.
Frelghtcars Kept Soaked With Water
and Flames Are Prevented
From Spreading.
VALLEY, Wash., Aug. 16. (Special.)
Fire broke out here today In A. W. Lam
bert's livery stable and soon spread to
the Buckhorn Saloon, owned by Brown
& TJderman. From there it leaped across
the street to M. Kulzer's large general
merchandise store. This building was 36
by 100 feet, a two-story frame building.
From there It spread to the oil house,
80 or 100 feet away, and then leaped 600
feet to Brown's residence.
With fire passing over M. Kuiier'a resi
dence, Mrs. Brown and other women
fought the fire until several men came to
their rescue and put the fire out.
SDarks of fire and burning pieces ot
shingles were carried to the brush In the
outskirts of town. Brush and logs are
yet burning and other damage may occur
before the fire can be entirely extin
guished. The loss will reach $60,000.
Had it not been for cars on a siae-
track. the fire would have spread to the
west part of town and the village would
have been wiped out. but a bucket bri
gade was formed by Mr. Hosklns, the
agent, and kept the cars wet, saving tha
depot and west side.
The heroic work done by Barton ana
Fletch Jarvis, R. A. Slocum and J.
Duduck saved Mr. Kulzer'g residence.
The postofflce and depot are safe.

Drop of 20 Cents From Last Year's
Figure Heavy Crop Re
ported in England.
SALEM. Or., Aug. 16. (Special.) About
40 hopgrowers of this vicinity met at the
City Hall today and adopted a resolution
fixing 80 cents a hundred pounds as the
price to be paid for hop-picking this sea
son. This is 20 cents a hundred less than
last year.
The opinion was unanimous that grow
ers cannot pay over 80 cents a hundred
and can scarcely afford to pay that much
In view of the present price of hops.
Eighty cents a hundred is practically the
same as 40 cents a box.
Joseph Harris, agent for Eenjamln
Bchwarz & Sons, received a cablegram
from London today saying that the Kent
ish Observer in its issue yesterday esti
mated the English hop crop for 1908 at
640,000 hundredweight, against 375,000 hun
dredweight last year.
