THE MORNING OREGOXIAN, TUESDAY. JUNE 4, 1913. 11 MORAL DECLINE IS DENIED BY PASTOR Baptist Minister Is Not Pessi mistic Regarding Trend of Religion. . ' ONE PLEADS FOR EMOTION Pnlplt OptlmlKt Thinks World Grow Better Another Would Revive Old Methods of Bringing Peo ple Into Church. Rev. TJuncsa M. McPhall. of the Ar ista Baptist Church, added teat to the Portland Ministerial Association's meet- lea yeeterday In tha Young Men's Chrlatlaa Association auditorium when ha i pressed different opinion regarding- tha atata of rtllglous feeling from that of Dr. Cullea E. Cllne. Dr. Clina had Just concluded hla paper on "The Decline In Rellglona Sentiment" when Rev. Mr. McPhall arose and expressed hla opinion that the outlook for religion waa never mora hopeful than now, and that rellgloua Inipulaee wera never stronger, lie deplored tha tendency among many preacaere to view tha preeent-day rellfrloua Ufa from a. pea slmlstlo standpoint. At thla point Dr. Cllna aroee and re minded the chairman that Mr. McPhall had already spoken longer than the prescribed five minutes, and thought that others should have an opportunity to express themselves, McPhall Reeeata leterraatloa. Turning to Dr. Cllne. who sat near him. Mr. McPhall aald: "This la tha hrst time I have ever taken any of thla association's Urns, while you bare con cumed hours of It" Thereupon he continued his remarks In support of the view that present-day religion has nothing to fear, and con cluded hy saying: "1 shall be busy eating the doughnut while tha pessimists are looking at tha hole." Other members of tha association ex pressed the opinion that the many dis tractions and amusements are respon sible for the decline of religious Inter eat, but believed the problem could be solved by getting the attention of peo ple. Another declared that If people of today expect to have the old-time re llgloua sentiment they must go to Ood for It. Retlclos) starves an Water, At the conclusion of the discussion Dr. Cllne arose and aald: "There must be some way of getting at the hearts of men of sense. Say what you will, talk what you will, we must get hold of the hearts of men. You cas t build up the spiritual life on water. It takes the Spirit of Ood to get men. Dr. ('line's Paper showed careful and thoughtful st mi y of certain phssea of religion as presented through tha churches. While really rhurrhes' are built and while contributions to re ligious undertakings were never so generous. Dr. Cllne believed that that affectionate and emotional appeal es sential to the religious life Is wanting; Inst men are lese moved by the great facta of religion than formerly. Resodoa lilsna. "The fact that Impresses us at the outset." said Dr. Cllne. "la that wa are not a community of worshipers. Ex cept at funerals and In the presence of death there la a minimum of emo tional feeling. It la manifest that after oil the congregation la an assembly of hearers. "Thus we pass the brief hour of the servli e and go home and refresh our selves'wtth a good Sunday dinner. We are satisfied ; we seem not to need any thing better. "it Is. after all. feeling and sympathy that perauades sinners. JCvery great preacher that ever awakened religious feeling In others has been distinguished by hla powsr to think and by hla power to feel deeply. Thess people saw things clearly and finally saw them divinely." Times Mark I'haage. Pome of the reasons given by Dr. Cllne for the decline In religious feel ing wera tha lapae of time alnca tha great manifestations of Ood that Im pressed the minds of the people of the past agea. People of today, he be lieved, hold the fact of God s existence, but their hearts are not moved by It aa were the hearta of the people In scriptural times. Destructive criticism, tha discoveries ff aclenoe and the material prosperity, he said, ware some of the things that have given a aetback to tha old-fashioned emotional religion. Rev. Albert Ehrgott reviewed the preparations for the Rose Musical Fes tival and expressed the opinion that the concerts would be such aa tha ohurches of the city could well be proud of.

QUANDARY AID GIVEN CONTRACTORS ACTS AS BOOMKRAXG. Court, Trying- to Preveot strike When Nonunion Painter fenbmlt Lowest nidi". Paces Problem. As a reward for acting Good Samari tan for the Lewis A. Hicks Company. which has the contract to construct the west wing of the Courthouse, the mem bars of the County Court yesterday found themselves In a quandary exact ly similar to that from which they reacued the contracting company. The trouble arose over the sub-contract to do the painting on the new wing. The contract originally signed by the Hicks Company called for the com pletion of the wing tn every detail. In cluding painting. The company adver tised for blda for painting aod Bheeuy Bros., who operate an "open shop,'1 were lowest and Insisted on being given the award. The union structural steel workcra and other employee belonging to organised labor who were working for the Lewla A. Hlrka Company threat ened to strike If Sheehy Bros, got the contract and the Hicks Company ap pealed to the County Court for rellaf. An agreement was reached by wh'cn the county would call for blda for ilia painting. The amount of the lowest bid received by the Lewis A. Hicks Company, that of Bheehy Bros., waa deducted from the gross amount to Be paid for the whole building. Yesterday, the County Court having advertised for bids for painting on Ua "own book." the tenders were opened and a non-union painter, John Blted. was tha lowaat bidder. Hla bid was 111.354. The Ernest Miller Company bid 211.470 and J. A. Oraef llt.MO. The County Court haa deferred action on the actual letting of the contract and. ac cording to Judas Cleeton. la perplexed to know just what to do. It has been discovered also that the lowest bid rscelved yesterday Is about 11000 higher than that of Sheehy Bros, making It appear mat tne iewis a. Hicks Company got $1000 the best of the county. Judge Cleeton' declares, however, that Architect Wbldden ex plains this by saying that more than 11000 worth of extra painting haa been added since the Lewis A. Hicks Com pany advertised and that tha county would have had to spend tna money anyway. Glasa A Prudhomme were given a contract yesterday by the County Court to furnish 712 worth or wood furni ture for the west wing. This will In clude the furnishings for two Justice of the Peace courts and four rooma to be used for Circuit Court purposea There were severs! other bidders. ALASKA LINE IS ASSURED SMAIXWOOD'S EFFORTS AT LAST ARE SCCCERSFTL. Demonstration of Gossard Front-Lace Corsets by Miss A. M.

Smith's Tourist Agency. Direct steamboat communication with Alaska from Portland hsa. after a long campaign on the part of W. 8. Small- wood, become an assured Tact. Begin ning Immediately after tha cloae of the Festival season and the Admen's convention In Portland, regular service will be establishsd by the sailing of the good ship Cuspidor, which Mr. Smallwood chartered at hie own ex ponas and which will make regular trips every once and a while until Champ Clark beeomee Preaident and the annexation of Canada makes It un necessary for cargoes to be aent around the English territory over a aea route. Mr. Small wood a only stipulation from tha bualneaa men of Portland waa that he should be assured a cargo aggre gating not less than 200 tons for each trio of the Cuspidor. For a long time solicitation among the merchanta and exportera waa unavailing, until Doraey B. Smith ateppea into tne nreaon ana In one stroke assured the full cargo for the first trip. C. B. Merrick, Dorr K. Keasey and C. K. Zllly had been bargaining with Mr. Smith for some time on a proposed tour to Panama Finding that Smallwood waa tn difficulty about bla cargo to Alaaka, Mr. Smith, after long argument, persuaded them to make Alaaka their destination tnatead, and Smallwood Im mediately closed tbe deal with blm for transportation. George Lovejoy will be Included In the shipment, not that he la necessary to bring the cargo up to the required amount, out oecauae or bis habitual tendency to yo on excursions. Ths Cuspidor will be brought up to the public docks on the East Bide next week to receive Ita cargo and will aall Immediately for Alaskan waters. "Ths first cargo waa the principal thing." aald Mr. Smallwood yesterday." and now that It Is assursd I feel confi dent that we will be able to make aall- iigs In the Cuspidor every once and a while, as I agreed to do. I am not wor rying myself about the cargo for the second trip. If nothing else comes forward. I am relying on Smith to re- ship his contribution to Alaska In definitely, until something else turns up." BRIDGE BELONGS TO CITY County Is Without Power to Lease Deck, Says Dennlson.
