First Paptlat church yesterday. Dr. Palmer la oooupying the pulpit of . the church during Dr. Rrougher'e European tour. Hla evening sermon was on ''Who la Responsible for PortlaAd'a Wicked- nesar , The auditorium waa crowded. Dr. t Palmer's . text was - "Watchman, What cf the Night" laaalah 41:11. Ho aid la part: , . i '' "Our text is found In connection with the prophecy of the downfall of Baby Ion.- Z do not compare Portland with Babylon only tm the aense that all cities Uks Babylon shall rise or fall as they keep or disregard Ood'a law, "1 do not aay that Portland la worae than many other aluea. I nave per aonally looked into the conditions in Chicago, 8an Francisco, Seattle and St lxula and believe Portland naa lesa wickedness than the cities named.

Who IS ' rekponslbleT First of all, the mayor, NQeorge H. Williams. I bring no charges against him. He is a man of olean personal record. After 1L he la doing aa much as his predecessors have done. I have known the mayors of Portland for eight years paat'-and for the most part they have been mere figureheads, so far an bettering the con dltlone in our city is concerned. They hare been machine-made mayors. A machine-made mayor oan be no good In the very nature of the case. The beet man on earth nominated and ruled by the bosses la tied hand and foot The mayor la ruled by the machine, the ma chine by the bosses, the bosses by the saloonkeepers and gamblers and these in turn by the devil. ' " "One of the moot pitiable sights ever seen In our city Is that of our honored mayor going before the grand Jury and, in a round about way pleading the cause of the vlolaters of the law, or again, to see him falling on his bands and knees before the supreme court, and with tears In his eyee pleading to be es euaed from executing the law against the lawbreakers of the city. Some one should aooompany him and sing 'Show Pity,- Lord, Oh Lord Forgive,' and let these unrepentlng sinners .live. Thla does not prove the mayor a bad man, but simply shows the tremendous pres sure of the lawlesa element of Portland, that even so good a man as Oeorge H. WlHlama, when in the eeethlng mael strom of corrupt politics, is, borne down as helplces as a babe in the froth ing ocean of vdeatn. - "Mayor Williams, we had a right to expect better things of you than ef your predecessors.

For its clos ing wook the Neill-Morosoo company has chosen George Broadhurst's popular fares. " r r The farce is in three acts, and depends for its humor mostly on the comical sit uations developing from a case of mis taken identity.
