Spiritualists Win First Round
With Council.
CLAIRVOYANT BEGINS ROW
Licensing and Regulator- Measure
Admitted by Commissioners to
Require Modification.
Further investigation of the pro-"
posed ordinance to license and regu
late crystal gazers, soothsayers, clair
voyants, palmists and similar prac
titioners was ordered by C. A. Bige
low, acting mayor, after a public
bearing at the council meeting yes
terday morning. Doubt was ex
pressed by Mr. Bigelow and other
members of the council of the advisa
bility of legalizing some of the prac
tices on the list by the ordinance,
while the justice of the charge of re
ligious discrimination presented by
the spiritualist church practically
was admitted.
Strong opposition to the ordinance,
unless tempered by a clause exclud
ing workers of the spiritualist church,
was voiced by B. F. Muikey and Can
Powers, attorneys retained by the
church. The meeting was attended
by a number of practitioners and
their representatives.
Qualifying Clause Proposed.
Mr. Muikey proposed a qualifying
clause to clear the spiritualist church
from the ordinance and said that the i
church would welcome a curb upon '
fakers and persons whose operations
were not within the law. The pro
posed clause was as follows:
""Nothing in this ordinance shall be
so construed as to apply to ministers
or legalized workers of the religion
of spiritualism holding papers of
qualification indorsed by regular J
chartered spiritualist churches under
the laws of the state of Oregon, pro
vided said ministers or workers shall
not engage in any practice of legerde
main (black art)."
William M. Gregory, sponsor for
the ordinance, presented a plea for
its passage, but said he had no ob
jection to excepting the bona fide
ministers and workers of the church,
so long as it would not drive into that
organization irresponsible practition
ers who otherwise would be barred
from the city.
Clairvoyant Instigates Fight.
Mr. Gregory said he was acting as
attorney for a clairvoyant wno in
tends to locate in the city and carry
on a legitimate business if the ordi
nance .licensing and regulating such
matters is passed.
George Morris, retired phrenologist,
who said that he carried three di
plomas and a certificate of identifi
cation, attacked the measure as too
drastic and the license fee as too
high. He contended that phrenology
was a science much needed in a world
where "people are studied from the
feet up, but neglected so far as a
study of the brain is concerned."
The proposed ordinance would place
a fee of $50 for each six months' prac
tice in the city and would make police
investigation, residence in the city, I
a schedule of prices and the general
character of the place operated as
requisites for obtaining a license. Un
desirable persons could be denied the
right to practice In the city unless
they could convince the council over
the ruling of the license inspector.
Black Art" la Barred.
Advertising to locate treasures.
procure brides or locate missing rela
tives or friends would be barred by a
special provision of the proposed or
dinance. The section states:
It shall be unlawful for any person
to advertise by any means to find or
restore lost or stolen property, locate
oil wells, gold or silver or other ore
or metal or natural product; to re- J

means of occult, or psychic power.

psychology, psychometry. spirits, me
diumship, seership, prophecy, astrol
ogy, charms, potions, magnetism or
magnetized articles, or substances,

kind or nature."
The ordinance was referred to the
commissioners of finance and public
utilities and to the city attorney. It
will come up for further considera
tion at a rater meeting of the council.
