admitted that the question will be
brought up again for discussion at Lou

ence of four years hence. None of the

Entitled to BepresentetloB.
Rev. I E. Rockwood, presiding elder
of the Portland district, and one or tne
two clergy delegates from this section
to the general conference in way, aaia
in regard to-the question:
''There are 300,000 colored members
of the Methodist Episcopal church, and
they are, of course, entitled to repre
sentation. If a negro bishop should be
elected there would be everlasting war
in the church, of course; but as things
stand now I do not see how that coulJ
happen, although it is certainly among
the possibilities. It is not that we dc
not consider the black man as good aj
the white man. but aside from all eth
ical Questions, It would be very bad
policy for the church. So far their vote
has not come very near the danger line
211 cast In favor, to a necessary 48 .
"There are many things' to be consid
ered in the election of such bishop and
the difficulties to be solved are all con
stitutional ones, for (since it is a fore
gone conclusion that we could not elect
an African to the Episcopacy In its
itinerant form). It would be necessary
to district him to a field among his own
people, which is a direct violation of
the 'third restrictive rule.' ;
"The third restrictive rule" reads. In
part: The general conference shall not
change nor alter any part or rule of
our government so as to do away with
the Episcopacy, nor destroy the plan
of our itinerant general superintend
encR.' i" - . t 1 :'i
"So right here is where the difficult
lies, and where warm discussions' took
place in the last conference. The ques
tion la certain to come up again In May
for renewed debate.
"In the Christian Advocate of a recent
date, Dr. A. R. Fisher editorially says
of the proposed change In the constitu
tion to admit the negro bishop;
" The .. arguments, pro and con, are
not new. Our bishops are not chosen
with reference to adaptation to any
particular section ot the country. Per
sonal rivalries among the bishops- will
be endangered, and debates over assign
ments may prove unpleasant and injuri
ous to influence. Then, rotation offers
advantages in the opportunity, of cor
rection of mistakes in appointments.
The general conference has never as
sumed to order the assignment of
bishops to particular fields. It has tac
itly admitted the existence of consti
tuted disability by requesting rather
than directing four j ears' assignment.
The nhird restrictive rule" was evi
dently adopted to' prevent the district
ing of bishops. , - -Would
create war.
Rev. W. B. Hollingehead, pastor of
the - Centenary Methodist Episcopal .
church, said today:
"The race problem is yet to be set
tled. The colored men owe a great deal
to the Methodist Episcopal church; Col
lection are constantly being ti'ken for
the maintenance of work among them,
and they have some good men among
them, too. But that does not Jrstlfy
them in asking, for a colored bishop to
come ber and preside over us. The
Freedman's Aid society and Southern
Educational society. have done wonders
among them. When they, pass out front
that period of development they may
see fit to stand alone, but the end is not
yet ' They are far better how under
the leadership of the church. Ulti
mately they. may see fit to withdraw
and organise a churtfh of their own, but
they are certainly not 'ready for that
change yet," ? t , 'c ., -

Smith, she writes, was here two years

TO STAY IN PORTLAND
(Continued from Page One.)
vln as manager of the state Southern
Pacific lines as well a those of the
Stnbbs and Zrnttsehnltt.
At President Mohler's office It was
stated today that Mr. Stubbs and Mr.
Kruttschnltt, two of the chief Harrl-
man officials, were expected to visit
Portland In the near future; the' time
of their arrival was', not known, - the
office not having been Informed of .their
departure from Ban Francisco.
. "The .story about the consolidation
of Oregon lines of the Oregon Railway
& Navigation company and the Southern
Pacific does not take Into aocount the
peculiar status ot the Southern Pacific
here' said one Southern Pacific passen
ger official. , "If Mr. Calvin were to as
sume the manatrement of the Southern
racine as welt as or tne o. k. & it-
would seem that Mr. Koehler, manager
of Oregon lines for tne southern Pa
cific, would be superseded. ' The line
of the Southern Paclno between Port
land and Ashland Is a leased line owned
by- a corporation called the Oregon &
California company. Back ot this are
wealthy Oerman stockholders, and when
the Southern Pacific waa given the lease
the appointment of Mr. Koehler as the
representative of the Oerman Interests
waa made. The line Is still leased, the
Oerman Interests still find their repre
sentative In Mr. Koehler, and In spite
of many rumors of change in his place
you will always notice that Mr. Koehler
remains manager of the Oregon lines ot
the Southern Pacific, and he probably
will continue in that position until he
desires to accept some other position."
The current belief la that official an
nouncement will be made in a few days
of Mrj ; Mohler's appointment to. the
management of the Union Pacific with
headquarters In Omaha, that Mr. Calvin
will be announced as general manager
of the O. R. & N., with headquarters in
Portland, and for the time the manage
ment of the Oregon lines of the two
Harrlman roads will remain practically
the same.
Other Xiiaes Look Westward.
Another phase of the question that
may detain the Harrlman management
from making changes that would cut
down Portland's railroad importance and
would transfer her prestige as a head
quarters to Salt Lake Is that not only
the financial forces of Portland 1 but of
the northwest are ready to offer induce
ments to other lines to enter this ter
ritory whenever the present lines do not
afford such service as can reasonably be
expected. Tbe Santa Fe is -near the
Southern Oregon line and looking for a
northern terminus, the Oould lines are
at Salt Lake waiting for fortune's west
ward beckoning, the Northwestern is at
Caspar with a stralght-away run to the
coast, miles on miles of which is over
the natural overland route, and the Mil
waukee In North Dakota as an inde
pendent line, is looking for western open
ings.: . . .
Another point which may be recalled
with Interest, ' now, together with the
fact that Harrlman Is noted for keeping
his word, is the statement made by Mr.
Harrlman on his last visit to Port'
land: ..--.-' -
'We know about this country," said
Mr. Harrlman in an interview, "and we
expect to grow to meet our obligation
as rapidly as possible. We will have a
modern roadbed and equipment between
Portland and Ban Francisco as soon as
one can be built, much of the work is
already done, and all Portland needs is
patience, these things can not be done
in a minute." "

SKAGWAY MISTOOK
1DLEMAN FOR BRYAN
If William Jennings Bryan has any
bills to collect he can avoid- the personal
inconvenience of locating his debtors
by employing Attorney C M. Idleraan.
Recently the lawyer shaved oft his mus
tache and thereby made himself Bryan's
double. He was met with a puxzleJ
look by his friends In the courtroom.
Two weeks ago he wu at Skagway,
Alaska, and there created havoc -among
the fair sex. who Imagined that tbe
brilliant Nebraska orator was honoring
them with, his presence.-
Mrs. Griggs, the widow of Governor
Griggs ot North Dakota, Is at Skagway
with her daughter, Mrs. Coleman, the
wife of Lieutenant Coleman. When Mrs.
Griggs was Introduced to Attorney Idle
man she gaxed at him in astonishment
"Why,' she exclaimed, "I saw you on
the street yesterday and thought you
were William Jennings Bryanl"
A good many others in Skagway
thought the same thing. One curious
minded person Insisted on learning the
lawyer's pedigree, declaring that he
must be a blood relation of the Com
moner. . .' -.; :.. '..!,
