MINISTER IS MYSTIFIED Candidate Wonders How Men Can Spend so 3uch for $25 Job. Rev. Charles T. McPherson preached at Epworth Methodist Church last night on politics. He said If the candidates desired by the majority of the DeoDle or the city were not elected it would not be the fault or those who went to he polls, but or those who remained at home. He said he was not mournlnr over the defeat for the nomination for CouncUman-at-Large. but that he was at a loss to understand how candidates could afford to spend so much money to secure a $25 job. "Candidates ought not to give the peo ple any ground to believe them dlshon- st before election," he said. "I am In favor of the commission form or govern ment, and don't think it ought to tske more than six months to bring about the desired result." ONE RECTOR CRITICISED Rev. B. A. Thompson, of Spokane Avenue Presbyterian, Blamed for Aiding Bloseer'a Parole Rev. E. M. Sharp Also to Step Out- Resignations or two prominent Pris byterlan ministers or this city, that of Rev. D. A.

May 7. and Rev. Mr. Sharp resigned yesterday morning. The congregation of the Spokane- avenue Presbyterian Church will meet tomorrow night to consider its pastor's resignation, and it is predicted freely that it will not be accepted. The resig nation of Rev. Mr. Thompson is said to have come about through criticism or his action In assisting in obtaining a parole tor R. I Blosser, who tried to rob the Sellwood Bank a short time ago. This Is denied, however, and other causes of discontent are hinted at, but It Is certain that no charges of any sort have been preferred against Rev. Mr. Thomp son. He declared that the whole subject will be submitted to the congregational meeting tomorrow night, and that he will abldo the result of that decision cheerfully. In referenoe tc the part he took In helping obtain parole for Bios ser, he said: Whenever I cannot extend a helping hand to any man to lift htm up and make a man of him. If I can in this church, then I shall step down and out and go to a church that Ttll permit me to do that sort of thing. But I have no doubt about the result. I am anxious that there should be no publicity until after that meeting tomorrow night, then do hot care what may be said. Xo Charges Are Made. "From what I can learn there have been no charges against Dr. Thompson," said J. W. Caldwell, a contributing mem ber and business man of Sellwood. "The whole affair is an outrage. The business men of the community are back of Dr. Thompson. If he did urge the parole or Blosser, he did no more than Rev. T. L. Eliot, or the Unitarian Church, ministers of the Baptist and Methodist churches of Sellwood. and also Rev. W. H. Fou Ike, before he left for the East short time ago. If these people ob ject to paroling Blosser, why don't they go to Judge Gantenbeln, who granted the parole? The truth of the matter is that the objection is simply a pretext raised by the small opposition to Dr. Thompson.. It happened that some of the homes or the elders of the church and others were robbed, and they laid It on Blosser, when there was not a scintilla of evidence that he committed the robberies. He was charged with murdering his wife, when there was nothing to prove it It would be almost calamity or Kev. Mr. xnompson to leave Sellwood. I understand that the lders held a meeting to consider tne complaints about the part Dr. Thompson had In securing a parole for Blosser, that he asked them if they wanted bis resignation and mat tney saiu yea. i These same men two months ago. when I Rev. Mr. Thompson was considering re alm to remain in Sellwood." Elder Mailett has been classed wun those In opposition to iteverena Thompson. Charles Masson. another lder. declined to express any opinion on the subject, except to express high regard for Rev. Mr. Thompson. Elder nonaid Junlon. who was not present at the session and who is said to have called for the pastor's resignation, de nounces the proceedings. , The Impression seems general mat Rev. Mr. Thompson will be vindicated at the meeting Tuesday night when a secret ballot will be taken to accept or reject the resignation. Rev. E. M. Sharp Resigns. Rev. E. M. Sharp. D. D.. pastor of the Mount Tabor Presbyterian Cuurch, at the corner of Belmont and East Fifty-firth streets, also surprised his congregation by reading his resigna tion at the conclusion oi nis mornmg ermon yesterday. The resiamation of Itev. Mr. Sharp was submitted to take Sect by June 1. at the next meeting of the Portland Presbytery. No reasons were assigned by the pastor for his resignation. In his absence from the manse, Mrs. Sharp, referring to the res ignation, said: "The reasons for Mr. Sharp's resig nation are purely personal which con cern Mr. Sharp, and not the public. There is no trouble in the church and Its affairs were never in a more pros perous condition. We recently moved into the new stone church and the work has gone forward successfuly. Re cently we took In 25 new members. That Is all there Is to it.
