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

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,

as God was to Moses and Calvin, he must
be to us. It looks on trutn as a jewel

"The new thought of truth is not as a

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.

TO
Dr. Foulkes Discusses Needs
of First Presbyterian.
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

There Is a deal of fair-weather philosophy
and religion current nowadays. How Jaun
tily we allot our days. So many hours for

will-strengthening? How much for prayer
and the girding up of the loins of the mind?
Go np and down Washington street or any

see souls adrift from their moorings, their
feet on the shifting sands. A girl from her

TAYLOR-STREET CHURCH, IN" 20
MINUTES, RAISES $2500
Money Goes to Laymen's Associa
tion for Use in Various Chan
nels by That Organization.
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."
