Rev. Mr. Cudlipp Doubts Wis
dom of Combating Liquor
by Party Movement.
ISSUE NOT GREATEST ONE

Step Ton art! Reform.
That Prohibition speakers injure their
cause by maklnz wild abatements re-
jraMlna the Importance of the liquor
question, and that manr or them over
estimate the voting strength of the
Christian people of the Nation, were
statement made by lr. John H. Cud
lipp. in his eermon at Grace Methodist
Church last nlcht.
That the liquor traffic la an alarm
ing problem In this country will not be
disputed by any fair-minded man." he
said. "That the church of God ouirht
to be. Is and must be opposed to the
saloon ts a truth which needs no dl
ous'lnn. Ru. first of all. let not the church
be deceived as to the strength and po
sition of her foe. I fear that the aver
se temperance man Is altoceiher too
slovenly in his estimate of the charac
ter ard power of the enemy against
which he presses his fight. In grandil
oquent words he proclaims that if the
rhurrli of God would but do her duty at
the ballot-box. the vexed question could
be settled forthwith. So he places the
responsibility at the door of the church
of Ul, and bids her do her duty or go
to hell. He tells us that there are at
least 30.0no.000 Christians In this coun
try, or a vote which ought to reach be
tween t. 000.000 and .000. 000. This Is
hut a mere guess, of course, but let us
grant the claim, and then ascertain
what. In reality, the facts are.
"r'lr-t of slk you are to reckon with
the Homan Catholic Church, with her
ll.000.ono people. On the basis already
assumed you must give her between
:,nfti.iw4 and J.OtiA.nnn votes, or at least
a tittle over 2.000.000. In the nature
of things this church dos not count
with the temperance force of Amerlia.
Indeed, it makes no pretentions along
this line Io not misunderstand nic.
1 do not say that the Catholic Church
ha no temperance sentimerii. She has.
and it grows with every passing day.
Hut 1 do say that this church cannot
be counted upon In a fight such as we
i.ave on our Tianas now.
"Then again, we are hound to con
sider the German vote. Splendid peo
ple, first-class cltiiens. Industrious,
real contributors to the growth and
prosperity of the Nation, hut with their
own conviction on this question.
"Then again, we "must not forget that
the liquor business has a commercial
value which Is astounding. Have you
ever thought that here Is a business In
which there is Invented more than
f 1.iMe.An.00A. to sar nothing about the
SOO.nnn hands engaged In carrying on
Its interests Ah. my friends. It Is one
thing to talk about rooting out the sa
loon. It is quite another thing to ac
compllsh the task. As I see It the
hurch has performed a miracle In do
ing whet she has.
Millions Defend Habit.
"Again, we must remember that in
thousand, a million, yes. In ten million
ii-rn. drink has become a fixed habit
for which men will sscrlflce their all.
"The present confusion must give
pta-e to order before this great evil
an he nhated. ' 1 feel sure the temper
ance cause has suffered Irreparable
harm from the average speaker who
has been sent out to represent Its
c'atrns. and whose stock In trade Is
abuse of those from whom they expect
monev and votes.
"Neither csn you ln this fight by the
claim that the liquor traffic is the great
est and only question before the Amer
ican people. They know better. There
are other questions just as vital. It Is
one of the great questions, but not the
greatest.
"I doubt also whether we shall succeed
along the third-party line, for we strike
at the convictions and prejudices of thou
sands of good men and women who be
I'eve that the welfare of their country
depends upon pushing the platforms of
the other great parties.
"We must make this a moral question,
not one of party politics. This question is
too big for any one party. It belongs to
every man. woman and child. It ts your
duly and mine to tight this terrible evil.
"Fv enforcing the laws we now have
e would he a long way toward prohibi
tion. As It Is. we are a ling distance from
It. There ts much rubbish to clear away
before the day of absolute prohibition
will come, but we can use the wisdom
we now have."

state. 1 then and there registered
vow that I should let the people of
Mjiltnomah and Clackamas Counties
what kind of a man Dan J. Ma
.arV is should he ever come before
the people for any office again.
"He Is now a candidate for State
Senator. I have now kept the vow !
made to myself at Salem four years
ago. when he advocated and voted for
the passage of the Jayne law. I cannot
vote for such a man. If the people
want to vote for him with such a rec

by the Ministerial Alliance to work
against the passage of the hill, believ
ing that Its purpose was to destroy tht

"Shall the Gates of Hell Prevail
Against the Church?" was the subject
of the sermon. The speaker declareJ
that the "white slave evil" was a chili

Four years ago I was sent to Salem

begging the Legislature to defeat thj

The measure went to the Senate, where
the final battle was fought.

to feed, while Parker was railed upon
again and again to repeat the story of
the escape of the occupants of the

elder Parker was supplied with enough
ready money to pay the larger part of
the expenses uf the trip.
"We were working a ranch in North

we were compelled to leave everything

J00 MILES FLOWX AT RATE OF
7 72 YARDS A MINUTE.
Only Three Homers Finish Face in
Which 12 Start Flight Is
, Last One of Season.
Birds frTim the loft of E. H. Bauer
won the last homing pigeon flight of
the season, from Mount Vernon, Wash.,
to Portland, a distance of 200 miles,
yesterday afternoon. The flight was
held under the auspices of the Portland
Homing Pigeon Club.
Twelve young pigeons were liberat
ed early In the morning at Mount Ver
non. The winning bird reached Mr.
Bauer's loft after flying at an average
speed of 772 yards a minute for the en
tire distance. The second bird followed
closely after. A pigeon belonging to
Ed Llllls won third place. The other
birds had not arrived late last night.
yesterday's flight was the final of
the young-bird races held this season
by the club, the flights for old birds
taking place earlier In the year. The
old birds were flown over a southern
course, and all the young birds over
the same course, as thac traversed by
the homers yesterday.
At the State Fair at Salem last week
one of the attractions was a nerles of
flights from there to Portland on
Wednesday, Thursday. Friday and Sat
urday. J. P. Limerick's young birds
had the best average in the four flights
and were awarded first place, and Ed
Llllls' homers won the old bird flights.
Many pigeons were lost this season
In the flights over the northern course.
At the beginning of the Fall season
about "5 young homers were liberated.
Gradually this number dwindled away,
and yesterday only three birds re
turned to their lofts. More may come
In today. The loss of so many birds
Is attributed to the forest fires, the
smoke from which, the pigeon fanciers I
believe, blinded the pigeons.
Members of the club are planning a
longer racing season next year, when it
hoped that bird fanciers from
other Oregon towns will compete In
the races. An effort is likely to be
made to form Independent homing
clubs In other cities to co-operate with
the Oregon Homing Pigeon Club in
promoting the sport throughout the
Northwest.
Man Who Disappeared From Rowboat
Said to Re in Xorth Yakima
Selling Pictures.
An investigation by Detective Fred
Mallet, ending early yesterday morn
lng, partly cleared up the mystery
of the death of Emil J. Kussa. whose
body was found floating at the foot
of Oak street a week ago, by eliminat
ing it from any connection with the
mysterious disappearance reported
from the Kellogg boathouse at the foot
of Salmon street, three weeks ago
When the body of Kussa was found
it was so decomposed that it could
not be determined whether death had
been caused by violence. Theory con
netted the case with a report that ;
man had been drowned while boating
in the upper harbor, a week previous.
Diver Hugh Brady and Engineer
Sehrocder of the patrol boat Elidor
said that two men had hired a row
boat and gone for a ride on the river.
,Only one of them came back.
The man first said that his com
panion had fallen overboard, but when
Brady offered to dl-e for the body,
changed his story, saying that he had
put the other man ashore at Bundy's
Baths. He gave the name Harry Brown
and a fictitious address on Second
street.
Detective Mallet found Brown, whose
true name Is Jacob Gang. He lives
with hia parents at 249 Caruthers
street. He said that his companion
was Bennle Korshak. employed by his
cousin, Ben Serlis, of 429 Washington
street, as a salesman of photo en
largements. Serlis asserted that Kor
shak was In Xorth Yakima, selling
pictures. He and Gang had some
trouble while out in the boat, and
Korshak had gone ashore at the baths.
departing soon afterward for -Xorth
Yakima.
Mallet believes Kussa accidentally
came to his death. It has been found
that he was drinking heavily just be
fore his death, and it is, thought prob
able that he fell into the river while
Intoxicated. His brother, Ralph H.
Kussa, of South Bend. Ind., has been
notified.

When Rear Admiral Evans was told
that a vote was soon to be taken in
Oregon on the question of prohibition,
he threw up his hands and exclaimed:
. "What do they want to do? Ruin
the stateT'
Admiral Evans believes in temper
ance in all things, but draws the line
sharply at prohibition. His personal
experience in Maine, when he was com
mander of the North Atlantic fleet.
caused him to take a Arm stand
against such radical restrictive laws,
and resulted In his forbidding ships
under his command to visit the harbor
of Portland, Me.
"Conditions were so bad in Port
land," said Admiral Evans, "that I xe
fused to allow any of our ships to
visit that port. When the men went
ashore they were met on the dock by
a lot of parasites who steered them
into some low dives. Thinking' that
would be the only opportunity to get
a drink they gorged themselves on
vile, wood alcohol poison, which made
them so drunk that they could not
even recognize their officers. The ac
tions of the police toward our men
was so repugnant that it was not
right to allow them to go ashore. It
was the worst spot I ever saw in my
life.
"We never hadT such trouble in a
city where there were open saloons.
In cities where there are open saloons
the men knew that they were drink

Maine It was the thought of the last
chance to get a drink when they were
shown one of those dives, and the vile,
adulterated stuff that was ftfbl them,
that caused them to become Intoxi
cated and go beyond the bounds of dis
cipline. "The prohibitionists forced the can
teen out of the Army and Navy. I
think It was the worst law that was
ever passed. You say they are going
to vote to make Oregon dry? Do
they want to ruin the state?"
