The following la a p-sume. of tlw ser
ni.iti delivered at the Methodist church
Sunday nigit by Itev. H. V. )t"w-and.
The subject was ' An Ordinance LU-t-n
lug Hint MU'hlnif," In the cre of
sermons on "'rty Problems." HI re
mark in the text, "Who la sufficient
for these things," led up to hi add rem
on lH-nl condltlona concerning which ut1
sail In part:
The evil of wh'ch we siK-uk -in onlv
bit successfully delt with at the com
mencement. Of all evil passions garnb
ling la the most aubtle. The. Iwy mnv
be saved from cultivating the pnwlon
but can scarcely be reformed after the
habit I once fixed. The victim A n
most any other vice may wory of It
with advancing years, but not so with
the gambb-rs. Tbe passion grow with
every Indulgence and refuwn ti t- b-ld
In check by even loss of bodily vigor.
Starting at first with small etuke and
played for amusement the passion
grow until the dem.m encircle him
In It deadly coll, fir which neither
friends, nor years, nor experience if
loss, nor struggle for manho'id can re
Icftif him an I at last he go- down In
to the grave Into which often fortune.
frlerwlw and character have gone before
him. ft Is the fruitful "urc of other
crime an1 It whole track 1 covered
with rula and shame. No reso'-'-table
gentleman, in say nothing of a Chrl
tlan, will publicly defend It. It x
latent' In any city or town Is a scan
dal. This Is one of th evil that Is
deeply rootwd in our city. Morality,
loyalty to the btit Intenst of our city's
t.risnerliy and religion alike demand
that a '-heck be put upon it.
Thl I the pr.ibl.-m that Is Iv-fore our
cltv council ton ght. Th.-v may de
reive themselves by thinking It Is al
right to I-! th rure curs on. Lai-k-Inrf
the monl courage to forbid the evil
they may trv to hld b-hlnd a technl
cat (ioln; of law. Th'-v pas the ordl-
n inn anl n declare the machines In
no.-.-nt, harmless things; but. howv-r
ne-!v the skin 'if the sheen sM.s on
the back of th wolf, he still r-maln
a wolf. IT the '(Mimfin coun-H ra
the orlln.inc Hnd they put a blot up
on this cliv's record that It will tak
vnrs to -ff:ice besul" making for
th"meves a tr rd. thev w-il! go rmn
In history as th council that licensed
Inloulty and their children's children
will rend th:it record and blush with
shame to think that their perhaps oth
erwls nob! sir- dared Insult the de
cency of this cltv and 'he state of Ore
g.n by licensing evil.
There In a state law that savs these
machines shall not be used. That law
was passed for th protection ot the
youth an I no ex.-cp'lon waa made of th
youth of Astoria. But notwithstanding
the state l.w the council propose to
llc-ns... Rv what nuthorltr? By au
thor! v given ro th cltv of Astoria In
h.r charter. Now the cltv chirter. ac
tion article fi. urnin which they hue
their claim, reads aw fiillows: "Th
council has power "nd awhorltv w'tb
In the city of Astoria to !le'ngo, tax.
rgulate and rtrwn birrooms and
drinking sh'ie. gaining and gainhilng
houses, and pla-e wh 're llo,uor Is
sold, and to regulat nlck'M-ln-the-nlot
mach'ni's." Hut this power o regu
late these things mnnfloned In section
e s delrate.1 -o ihls city und"r cer
tain conditions anl llmltalons. Th
c-indlHons are glvn In section '9 of th
charter, which savs: "The pmver and
uthorltv given to the council by sec
tion 5S can only be exorcised or en
forced by ordinance, unless otherwise
provided, and a maloritv of the coun-
may pas anv ordinance or make
anv bvlaw n( repugnant to the laws
of the I'nl-ed States ,ir if this stfcte.
etc." '
Now th ca. seems nlaln: section SS
of the city chart r says the ci-nincll
of the city of Astoria may rgu'at
nlckel-ln-the-slot machlnee; section 30
siys: ie. that Is right, but the coun
c'l must do t bv an ordinance and
that ordinance must be of such a na
ture as not to cntllct with any law
of the st.it of Oregin. Now the state
Ipw says th nick d-ln-the-slif machln
hill not run. The cly charter says
If von license the slot machine your
ordln.inc doing so mils' not conflict
with a sta'e law. Now I vntur th
nssertlon. here is a little task that win
tux the nowers of our councllmen end
ol'v attorneys to frame and word that
rdinnnce so that It will not conflict
with the ProchBtei! law. I hope, when

the council pie that ordinance (If
It dot not conflict with the tate law)
that they will publish the text In full.
I am sure It will be Interesting reading.
It ought to be preserved In the ar
chive of the city fir future referent.
But our attorneys tell ua the charter
la a special law, the mate law la a
general hiw. A general law cnn
t aalde a special law unlet the Pc
lal law speHfleally mentioned in th
general law. Now If ctlon 39 did nt
exist In our charter I could see tbe
force of that statement In thlg case.
But not btlng a lawyer I fall to se
where the charter Itself mv no ordl

machine shall be pass'v that is con
trary to any stat law Jus: what dif
ference It make which I the reclaJ
or which I the general or which was
passed first. You say that I not law.
Well ,1 appeal to you If It doe not at
least hav the appearance of common
seme, I know thit we preacher are
sometime accused, perhaps not always
unjustly, of getting ao much theology
Into our head that w be our abil
ity to b proctl'-al. But I am per
suaded that the preacher are not the
only sinners along this line. If a
I on the body, the whole body I dis
eased and suffer threfrom. It I there
same with a olty. Fmll!arlty with
lawlessness an I Immorality blunt the
moral nn. Like an Infectious dl
eone It reiche out until the whole
moral life of the city I affected. But
the dealer must have the money that
flow Into hi till through the machine
and the city must hav th revenue.
No "egard I to b paid to the mor
ality of the young men. Money I
th evil trust. Money In Itself to no
evil but the love of money for its own
sake U an evil of the greatest magni
tude. And Its piw?r Is felt, not only
In our general government but In our
municipal government today. And how
much Is the city to rcelve 1n return
for these machine? Well, h the pres
ent ordinance can become a law this
city win receive I1K00 a year. I appeal
to you Is not that an Insignificant sum
with which to rr-mpns this city for
disgracing Itself, to say nothing about
the nlr;ulty It fostT.
The pastor .f this church has ben
challenged to play Mr. Madison's ma
chine. This Is th challenge. The Pas
tor Is to drop 1000 nickels In the ma
chine: If the ma hlne doe not regis
ter 400 cigar Mr. Madison gives the M.
K. church $.10. We have been a1vled
to accept. But we decline for the fol
lowing reasons:
1. The propositi n Is to gamble. W
do ref gamble, hence cannot accept.
z. woum not accept if we could.
W are not In ;h habit of playing at
another man' gam. It Is an open se
cret thst the cards in the machine can
be changed. Of cour. Mr. Mal'son
would not do that, but thl is what
puzzles us. "If we cin only gt him
(the pastor) to tday the machine w
will Hx him": of course that remark
was not Intended for the pastor's ears
bit' it reached them.
3. W have already dropped a few
nickels Into Mr. Madison' machine and
have witness to the fact that
for thos nickel the machine did
not register a single cigar and that for
100 nickels dr ipped Into his machine It
oi;lv registered 13 cigars. We do not
presume to say It shows what the ma
chine may do Just as stray straws In
dicate tbe direction of the wind. These
are my reasons for declining. Are they
not sumelent
This I the problem that confront
us today. What are ve t, do; I be
lieve In the Bible. I believe In prayer
meetings. But thuj far these agencies
have not freed us from these things.
Good, strong Intellectual men have
stood In our pulpits and declared the
word In power, yet this evil has gone
riarht on. Their eff orts have apparent
ly made no impression. They mav have
picked up a fall-i man or woman here
and there hut for every one ecuJ t n
have gone down to ruin. This Is not
merely a religious rrobb'm but a civic
problem as well. The life of the com
munity as well as religion demands a
solution. it i. our mission to lift un
tbe fallen, to re'ue all we can but
when we ar at res-ue work we ought
to destroy the "ource. It Is a tremen
dous undertaking and means a tre
mendous conflict: It calls for strong,
heroic men. who cannot be bought and
who owe allegiance to no one but God.
It Is worthy of jur powers and will
tax our manhood but It will pay. I
summons you to a task. Be true to
the rlghte-ius side and have a part 'n
the conflict. I do not speak merely to
your piety; to your religious feelings.
I sneak to your conmon sense, your
humanity, your patriotism. If you love
your fellow men. !f vou desire the or
der md stability of society and lelleve
in your city, in Its future. Its mission
of blessing do something to prove your
faith. And the best things that you
can do is to give your strength, your
Influence and. If needs be. your money
to save the boys and girls at whise
bands the welfare of this city will be
committed when you me gme.

CONCERT A SUCCESS.
Splendid Musical Program Was Ren
dered. The concert given at Fisher's opera
house last night for the benefit of Grace
Episcopal church was a success both
from an artistic and financial stand -
point. The house was filled, and the
splendid musical program arranged
was carried through without a hitch.
The surprise of the evening was fur-
nished by the number which was bill-
en ien aie rrftiy aino?n. nuin ioc
musical comedy of "Florodora," A
charming looking girl gowned in light
blue, and with raven brack natr wa'K-i
ed on to the stage and approached the
footlights. To a certainty she was a i
stranger and it was thought she waa
one of the Portland artists who as
sisted In the program, but the first
not dispelled that Idea for it waa ap-
parant that while the singer waa cao
tlvatingly feminine the tones were hope
lessly masculln. Finally the secret
came out that It was Edwin Hobson'a
debut as a female impersonator, and the
applause which was given him left no
doubt a to the hit he made. Thereaf
ter whnver he appeared (he played
eeveral acompinr.n?nts) the "girl la
blue" received an ovation.
From the opening; overture to the
