VERBAL VOLLEY IS FIRED AT COUNCIL Dr. Wilson Holds Members to Blame for Moral Ills of Portland. LIKENS THEM TO ' CURS Methodist Pastor Announces That He Will Personally Make Effort to Invoke Recall on Four City Fathers. PASTOR OJf CITY COTTJfCTL. Th pr.nt City Council U th cor of Portland' festering moral sore. Notable reform, which htm been brought about In the city have not been aided by any bird In that dirty neat. Gambling ni .topped by the county official In spit of the City Council. When the houae of shame were banished from the business and resi dence sections the Council lifted neither a TOice nor a hand to aid anybody. The Council gav no legislation or aid In closing the saloons on Sunday. Its member hav refused to strengthen th anti-box ordinance relating to restaurant. They come and t like whimpering eurs. at every beck and call of the llquor-selllng. dtve-keepinr fraternity. By months of juggling with the or dinance that prohibit women from frequenting saloons. they have brought sham to their city. Portland's City Council Is a- "dirty nest." and the recall, provided for at the general election last June, should be set in motion against four of its members, according to Dr. Clarence True Wilson. In bis sermon at the Centenary Method ist Church last night he bitterly de nounced the Council as the heart of what he termed Portland' moral rottenness, and said that if the Municipal Associa tion or some similar organization does not start the recall, he will do so upon his return from the Oregon conference at Salem the last of September. The four Councilmen against whom Dr. Wilson would use the recall were named. Dr. Wilson's sermon was similar to that delivered by Dr. F. Burgctta Short to a Cincinnati eaudlence a week ago. in which he declared that Salt Lake City is the Sodom and Gomorrah of America. Although Dr. Wilson did not make a di rect comparison between Portland and Sodom, he began his sermon by describ ing the city as "the garden of the Lord." and went on to say that no member of the Council ever aided in municipal re forms. Dr. Wilson said: Th preachers alway seek the cities as the centers of Influence, and have perfect faith In the leavening power of Christianity to transform city life. Heathen corruption has retreated before the advance of Chris tian civilisation, because Christ ha. a mis sion to society as well a to the Individual. Llk Paul, we can boast of being "eltisens of no mean city." Portland, beautiful for situation. Is the Joy of the Northwest. Ly ing gracefully upon the gentle slope of th Willamette River and Valley, our East Bide Is rapidly extending to th bank of the Columbia, and 1 destined In a few short years to have wharves and docks all along the shores of both river. It Is a commer cial center and will be more and more a fresh water harbor and shipping point aa th year go by. There Is everything to attract residents ef the better class a solid and conservative population, beautiful homes, churches and schools, with driveways lying In every di rection, fascinating In the extreme, and with as lovely a mountain and landscape view from Council Crest a thl world can fur nish. It Is a city wher "every prospect pleases, and only man 1 vile." Many of our citizen. In their ambitious plans for the town, have apparently never stopped to think that moral conditions have anything to do with the city's upbuilding. The festering moral sor on th body poli tic have seemed to escape their notice. After living her for nearly four year aad care fnllv dlaanoalna- the case. I do not hesi tate to ay that th cor of our moral I cancer Is the present City Council. Notable reforms have ocurred In this city, but not one of them ha been accomplished, or even aided, by any bird In that dirty est. When the houses of shame had to be driven from the residence and business sec tions, there was neither a voice nor a hand lifted In that Council to aid anybody. When gambling was to be stopped. It was done by state law and county officers in spite of th Council. When the nlckel-ln-tha-slot machine were corrupting our boys, and giving them the gambling mania, w could get no aid from the Council. The Mayor had to do It, Invoking a tat law. When vast majorities of thl city wished the saloons closed on Sunday, we could get no legislation or aid from that festering moral sore w call our Council, but the District Attorney, a state officer. Invoked rather an Indefinite state law. The Council has persistently. In violation of state laws, licensed saloon of a disreputable character within the proscribed limits of our public schools When Portland aroused herself to give to (he world a great exhibition In- the Lewi and Clark Fair, thl Council shamed the moral sentiment of the people, and our visitors, by licensing 80 saloons all around the gates of the fair grounds. Its members have refused through these years to strengthen the anti-box ordinance In restau rants. They persist In re-llcenslng notor ious vlolstor of our liquor laws. They com and go like whimpering cur at every beck and call of the liquor-sellers, 'dive keeping fraternity, and have now. by montha of Juggling with the ordinance that pro hibit women from frequenting saloons, brought shame to their city. Ther will not be an ordinance passed by th present Coun cil that will keep women out of saloons, unless the ordinance le so weak as to be ridiculous, or unless the Council should get Its Instructions to pas it from th liquor dealers themselves. What this city needs, now that we hav that splendid enactment of the sovereign people. I to Invoke the recall at once upon about four of the present City Council. I have hoped that ome on would lead off In thl matter and I call upon the press, the people and th reform organisation, each a. the Municipal League, to call a convention of the citizens who feel eut raged by the hold-up of all decent legisla tion In our Council. But If these organisa tions do not take the lead. I ehall do It myself a an andlvldual citizen, and on my return from conference, the last of this month, make It my buslnees until th thing Is accomplished, to give the decent people of Portland a chance to vote on whether certain men ehall longer outrage this city of schools, churches and American homes by the Indecent moral exposures to which they treat us at almost every Council meet ing. "Th wicked walk on every side when the vilest men are exalted." "Wo unto him that bulldeta a town with blood and establlsheth a city by Iniquity." Shall th throne of Iniquity have fellow ahip with thee, which frameth mischief by a law V SEW LIGHT OX OLD TOPIC Modern Criticism Illumines and Aids Scriptures. "The New Thought of God," was th topic of Rev. James D. Corby at the Uni vtrsallst Church on East Eighth street. yesterday morning; before an Interested congregation. "Can God be known. Is the great life question." said Mr. Corby. "Man's life Is an empty bubble unless we can know him by whom and In whom we live. "The God belief is almost as old as humanity. When primitive man first became conscious of what Matthew Arnold terms "the power not ourselves that makes for righteousness,' he did not understand God any more than a babe understands Its parents' nature. Bead the pictures of deity given by Moses and the older proph ets: It Is a picture lurid with Injustice and red with cruelty. The God they show Is a-poor reflection of the nearest king, subject to all his Infirmities of temper, hatred, favoritism and revenge.

They keep it behind creeds and councils. "The new thought of truth is not as a Jewel but a living seed. Truth Is not to be put In a museum, but planted.

This expansive element In truth explains the upheaval In the the ology, if a youth dies, it is Important to have and keep his photograph but if the youth is alive and growing, every stage of his development involves a new picture. "If men will read the dogmas of the old theology and then think, they will ask. Can that be the God of my chtlrch? If there is a being like that I should sav it is the devil and not God.' I don't wonder that many have repudiated that sort of a deity and deny the God spoken of In many religious books and catechisms. Tou might fear and tremble before such a God, you might in a cow ardly way obey such a God but you could not reverence and love him. "Such a God is altogether contrary to Christ's revelation of the All Father. And inconsistent with Paul's declaration that every knee shall bow and every tongue confess Jesus to be Lord to the glory of God the Father. Christ taught that goodness In us was a faint picture of goodness in God. From the best quali ties in us we argue upward to God. The heavenly Father cannot be less than we. What is called the skepticism of our age Is the result of kindness. Benevolence is the mother of heresy. The new thought and new theology is in response to the growing demand for a restatem&nt of Christian truth in the light of modern re search and scientific discovery." ADVISES RACE TO COLONIZE Colored Pastor Speaks for Unity Among His People. That colored men should colonize, and that, although they have in their ranks a few good leaders, these do not receive the proper encouragement from their fellows, were the statements made last night by Rev. W. Matthews, of the Afrl ccan M. E. Zion Church. He took for his text Exodus 111:10, which speaks of Moses' mission to the Hebrews in Egypt. The speaker said that, although the Is raelites were first emancipated when they crossed the Red Sea, it was not until they crossed the Jordarr-that they were fully freed. He said that the colored peo ple, as a race, are now nearing their sec ond emancipation. "Just as soon," ha said, "aa we learn what it means for our present and future welfare to organize, unionize and even colonize, we will see our second emancipation." Continuing, the speaker said there are too many "moral cowards, spongers and blind guides" among his people; while the negro who Btrlkes at the vagabond class must fight single-handed. if - h'-'W"'-i--iw- i m f J fs4H"-i Li u It -' s fi- Sill).'

ASKS FOR LARGE ANNEX Even If Congregation Is Merged With That of Calvary, Pastor Hopes to Retain Present Central Location.' Recommending to the members of his congregation the building of an addi tion to the First Presbyterian Church, that it may meet the larger needs of a downtown church. Dr. William Hiram Foulkes, its pastor, preached yesterday morning on "Lengthened Cords and Strengthened Stakes." He said that the church will never be able to fulfill its mission, as he sees it. until it has a larger home. He recommended that the parsonage be moved, and that an addi tion be built to the church, giving a larger Sunday school room, and social rooms for the young people of the church. Dr. Foulkes told the members of his flock that he does not think the First Church should move to other quarters, even though the Calvary Church should decide to join with it, and in spite of the fact that the property on which the First Church now stands Is valuable as business property. He said that the pres ent quarters should be made a church home in every sense of the word. Studies Churches In East. When Dr. Foulkes went East this Sum mer he visited a number of churches there with a view to improving the meth ods of the First Church. He gave bis congregation yesterday morning the bene fit of his observations, telling them par ticularly of the work now being done in Chicago by Dr. Hill. A committee was elected last Spring, consisting of members of the Session. Board of Trustees, and several laymen from the congregation, to canvass- the church members for funds with which to make an addition to the First Church. Of this committee, H. C. Campbell is chairman. Although no definite information is forthcoming as to the action which the Calvary Presbyterian Church will take toward uniting with the First Church, it is understood that the majority of the members favor remaining a separate or ganization. A Joint meeting of the Ses sion and Board of Trustees Is to be held at the Calvary Presbyterian Church to night. If those present at the meeting think best, a committee of three will be appointed, to confer with a like commit tee from the First Church, and to take up the details of a union. The question will then be placed before the congrega tions of the two churches. Ohoses Symbolic Subject. The subject of the sermon at the First Presbyterian Church last night was, "What Shall I Do in the Swelling of Jordan T" This is the second in the pas tor's series of Sunday night sermons. He took for his text Jeremiah xll:5. "If thou hast run with footmen and 'they have wearied thee, then how canst thou con tend with horses? and if, in the land of peace, wherein thou trustedst. they wear ied thee, then how wilt thou do In the swelling of Jordan?" He said in part: Th swelling of the Jordan is commonly Interpreted aa referring to the sudden rise of Its waters, catching men and the beasts which had their haunts In the rocks on its banks, unaware. It 1 fitly symbolic of the moral crises of life. The question Is not whether there will be a swelling of the Jordan. No one Is un mindful of the reality of moral crises. The floodtlde of shame, failure, despair comes too often tobe denied. Even those who are outwardly most unconcerned are certain of th reality of Judgment here. Why Is It that the record of a day's frightful, abom inable casualties Is read at all ? Ts It not because there Is somethtng so terribly hu man about them all ? We have all learned the power of the flood I Not Question of Time. Th question Is not when the swelling of the Jordan will come. Who knows T How tortuous Is the path of human life and how unexpected Its crises. Granted that there are often premonitlone of distress and defeat. But these come to us usually when w are bound hand and foot, and have but the spray of the Incoming tide of judg ment to sting u into terror. Our river of life may be flowing peacefully while the man by onr aid may be sinking 'neath the deepest billows. But Judgment will come, ure and soon. The question Is, What shall I do In the welling of th Jordan? A question tlytt must be answered before the crisis comes. It will not do to try to learn to swim when one is ail but drowned. It ts bad enough to lose one's moral perspective in the hour CHURCH EXPAND MODERN BRpTHEEHOOD OP AMERICA HOLDS STATE C0NVENTII0N PORTLAND BUSINESS DIRECTORY WHOLESALE AGRICULTURAL LMi'LLMliNTS. A. H.

The members of the Taylor-Street Meth odist Church raised 13500 In 20 minute yesterday morning for the Laymen's As sociation of the Oregon Conference. This organization has for its aim the assistance of underpaid and superannuated minis ters, the proper endowment of Willamette University, and the extension of Metho dism. Inspired by a letter which he had received during the week from a promi nent Portland citizen giving JSOOO to Will amette University. Dr. Benjamin Young,, the pastor of Taylor-street church, deliv ered a stirring sermon yesterday morning on the "Power of Personal Faith." When he had finished, G. F. Johnson, the president of the Laymen's Association, made a plea for money, which was quick ly raised, three members of the church giving J1000. T. S. McDanlel told of the funds needed for church extension. The Laymen's Association states In Its motto, that its aims are to have every member a tlther, every conference claimant In comfort, every pastor receiving a liv ing support, every benevolent collection taken in full, every charge to have a par sonage, every congregation to have a church, a Pacific Christian Advocate In every home. Willamette University ade quately endowed, and every charge to have a gracious revival." The letter to Dr. Young. In which was Inclosed the $2000. was from a prominent Portland citizen, whose name Dr. Young does not disclose. He has been a member of the Taylor-street church for the last 20 years. In the letter he says that he is giving $100 for each year he has been a member, and conveying to the congrega tion his grateful appreciation of the many kindnesses shown him in the years which have passed. Dr. Young took for his text yesterday morning, "Abraham believed God and it was counted to him for righteousness." He said that In all walks of life, faith must be paramount. Without It, he said, business could not be conducted. He stated that the republic could not exist except her people have faith in the law makers; that without this, anarchy would be supreme. "The faith worthy the name," said the pastor, "is that faith which leads to ac tion, ah example of which is before you In the gift to Willamette University." Good Fishing at Newport.
