The first structure owned by the
First Presbyterian Church, after it waa
organized in Portland. January 1. 1S54,
was a frame structure at Third and
Washington streets, where Felden

1890, having been two years in build

Rev. T. S. Cassrey was the first pastor

capacity from 1M0 to 1SS7. In that year.
Rev. A. L Llndsley was called to take

C. N. McArthur, slated for Secre

The letter from the First church to the
Calvary church, sent about a week ago,
Is as follows:
The se.slon of the First Presbyterian
Church to the officers and congregation of
th Calvary Presbyterian Church:

location of Calvary Church, the kingdom
of Ood In the world, and Presbyterlanlsm

us. In the hope that It will be a help- la
living the problem with which Calvary
Church has struggled so long and nobly.
Our senlon will be clad to suggest to our
congregation that the two congregations be
given proportionate representation on the
boards of eiders, trustees and deacons. It
Is suggested that. If you deem It advisable
to consider the matter of union, you ap

a like committee from our church, so that

foes within. He said that the day of
labor has dawned, and with It the oppor
tunity of the church, as well as its re
sponsibility. They are to be. he said
as two divisions of an army, led by their
divinely human leader.
Last night Dr. Foulkes spoke upon the
question. "What Shall I Do With My
Sin?" This is the first of a series of
four Sunday night sermons, the subjects
of the others, which will be taken up
beginning next week, being. "What Shall
I Do in the Swelling of Jordan?" "What
Shalll I Do With the Still Small Voice
"Whaf Shall I Do With Jesus?"
Dr. Foulkes said in part yesterday
morning:
The cause of labor, eanctloned by ths
Creator's flat. "In the sweat of thy face
shalt thou eat bread." can never lose the
dignity it acquired at Its birth, that of being
the first-born child of humanity. To writs
the history of labor Is to be the biographer
of the human race. The story or tne rise
and fall of nations must be written In terms
of human toil.
Neither does this industrial age In which
we live, nor do the organizations of laborers
which have made It possible, possess
monopoly upon labor Itself. They are only
entering into an ageless heritage which they
must hand down to otners.
Idlers Depend on Others.
Even the sheerest Idler that ever graced
the ties of a railroad track, scorning honest
toil la dependent none the less upon ths
.work of others for his precarious and yet
self-Instituted manner of life. The road
bed and track upon which he walks are-
moistened by the sweat or tnose wno leit
something beside footprints on their path.
The tin can In which he cooks bis wayside
stew or rushes his chosen beverage from
some so-called Worklngman's Paradise. 'was
rolled and cut Into shape by hands that had
been taught to toil. Even the rick of new
mown hay which provides for him' a per
fumed couch was bullded by horny-handed
sons of toll, from whose contaminating com
pany he escapes In the early hours of morn,
ing. lest he. too, should have to work. If
order is Heaven's first law, labor seems to
be Its earthly translation.
For the most part, however, it is not
the toil which Ood requires which gives us
grief, but the burdens which our fellows
lay upon us.. I The rankest agitators that
ever inflamed a mob would scarcely de
precate the beneficent effect of toll upon
the toller so fnr s the universal scheme
REMAINS THE SAME
Well-Brewed Poatnm Always Palatable.
The flavor of Postum, when boiled
according to directions, is always the
same mild, distinctive, and palatable.
It contains no harmful substance like
caffeine, 'the drug in coffee, and hence

"Believing that coffee was the cause
of my torpid liver, sick headache and
misery in many ways," writes an Ind.
lady, "I quit and bought a package of
Postum about a year ago.
"My husband and I haVe been so
well pleased that we have continued to
drink Postum ever since. We like the
taste of Postum better than coffee, as
It haa always the same pleasant flavor,
while coffee changes its taste with
about every new combination or blend.

of things goss. ' The most conservative
student that even hesitated before the labor
problem will not deny that enforced labor
at the hands . of fellow men. work dis
proportionate to wage, toll that not only
makes men sweat, but that maims, wounds,
weakens and enervates them, and in the
prime of manhood, having sapped their

Tornado of Socialism.
Around this latter type of labor as a
storm center the economic movements of
the past decades have been surely gather
ing. With it as a nucleus the swift advanc
ing tornado of Socialism threatens to en
gulf in Its destructive vortex not only, the
oppressor, but the oppressed.
In Its light, nay, rather In Its somber
shadow, which it casts upon God's fair
earth, the church of the living God must
take her bearings anew and address her
self to its solution with a sincerity that
will win Its way despite odds, with a cour
age that is worthy of the martyrs and with
a patience that is, born of hope, and with
a love that has been kindled anew at Cal
vary. Labor's foes within are more to be feared
than those, without. Conscientious men in
the ranks of organised labor know better
than you or I do the craft and power of
unscrupulous leaders. We laugh at the
demagogus; they tremble before him. How
many times has labor been sold out at the
hands of Its treacherous leaders? There Is
not alone treachery to its charge, but criiffe
of a revolting sort, whose evidence Is so
strong and circumstantial, so complete that
thoughtful men are believing the words of
a self-confesed murderer though a sworn
Jury refused to believe them, concerning In
trigues and diabolical villainy.
The labor- movement must purge Itself of
the suspicion of these things, wash Its bands
In the sincere waters of regret and dis
avowal. To Idolise the 'men who he.ve es
caped the gallows by a halrsbreadth. is
to alienate the interest and support of
thousands.
BISHOP TALKS AT SELLWOOD
Right Rev. Charles Scaddlng Shows
Need of Spiritual Culture.
The Right Rev. Charles Scaddlng of
ficiated at St. John's Church, Sellwood,
yesterday morning. He formally re
ceived eight new boys into the vested
choir, and also received and set apart
for religious use two handsome brass
crosses, one a processional cross, and
the other for the altar, given as memo
rials by members of the church. After
expressing his appreciation of the loy
alty and energy of the parishioners, the
bishop promised to lay the foundation
stone of their new parish house on
Saturday afternoon next. The people
have already raised almost the entire
amount needed for this building, which
Is to be up-to-date in every way, pro
viding ample accommodation for a
fully graded Sunday-school, choir and
guild rooms.
Taking for his text, "The. letter
kllleth, but the spirit maketh alive,"
from the epistle for the day, the bishop
made an earnest plea for spiritual cul
ture. 1:
New Buildings at Albany.
ALBANY. Or., Sept,. 6. (Special.) Two
large, two-etory brick buildings will be
erected on the site of the recent fire
which destroyed four wooden buildings in
the First-street business district in this
city. Work will begin at once on a build
ing 100 feet long, with a frontage of S3
feet, on the property of Mrs. S. Brenner
and Mis Fannie Brenner.
Dr. A. Stark and Frank G. Will, who
own the remainder of the property In the
burned area, have announced that they
will also build a two-story structure on
their property, which Is 100 feet long and
has a First-street frontage of 50 feet.
They have not definitely decided to erect
the building this Fall, however, but will
probably do so.
Contest Begins Today
Don't overlook the "Reason Why" contest, which begins this morning at
the popular tailor shop of the Columbia Woolen Mills Company.
Yesterday's papers explained the contest fully.
This contest should interest every man in Portland.
There is no element of chance connected with it.
It is simply a method we have taken to learn the "Reason Why" Columbia-Tailored
Clothes are so popular why you selected this shop to make your'
clothes.
It is for the best original "Reason Why" that we are offering cash prizes
this week, to be judged by a representative from the advertising departments
of each of the three local newspapers.

To Seven Customers
The first hundred purchasers of suits will be entitled to submit their
"Reasons Why."
The first prize will be $50; second prize $25; and five prizes of $5 each.
These amounts will be paid in cash as soon as the result of the contest is an
nounced by the judges.
The reputation of the Columbia Woolen Mills Company is back of this con
test. All "Reasons Why" will be judged without knowledge as to the name
of the person who submitted it; each will be numbered, the number and name
sealed until after the prize-winners are selected.
The contest will remain open for only a few days for a week at most so
it behooves the purchaser of a Fall suit to avoid delay.
