CHURCH DISCIPLINE IS
TOO LAX, SAY PRIESTS
Episcopalian Clergymen Declare They Need Power of Ex
communication to Enforce Rules of the Church
Remarriage of Divorcees Is Discussed.
Divorces, failure 'of members to 'at
tend communion, and the purely English
problem of the marriage of deceased
wife's sisters were the principal sub
jects of discussion at the (International
clericus of the Episcopal church which
convened In the pro-cathedral this
morning.
Charges were made by some of the
priests present that in spite of the rigid
rule of the church about the remarrying
of divorced persons many priests were
performing such services. The matter
of church discipline was gone Into at
length. It being claimed that the disci
pline or me cnurcii in rei w ...o..,..
matters was altogether too lax. It was
suggested that the power of excommu
nication be Invoked, and various meas
ures of ponance were advocated by the
.neuicnra. At nreseni. mere um iiu
the American churoh provid
ing for discipline of those not attending
communion.
English prelates Bapped,
The meeting touched upon the dls-
4 n ..nu, ii-Anttnir mmh excitement
in England, namely the marriage of a
deceased wife's slater briefly but to
the point. The Question was raisea oy
Rev. H. a. F. Clinton of Vancouver. Dr.
Clinton took a rap at the mother church
A V. 1Tnrl1Vi nrolltM. narttCUlarly
the archbishop of Canterbury who. he
.m hA Ywhaver1 In a verv weak splned
manner with regard to the enforcement
of the discipline of the church. He de
clared that the Archbishop had practic
ally placed the responsibility for the
marriage of a man to his deceased
wife's sister on the clergy under him.
"We are too fond of taking? the courso
of least resistance." said Dr. Clinton,
"and there Is no douebt but that disci
pline In the form or penance is neeoeu,
Personally I prefer private penance to
public, although certain laws of the
English church provide for both. There
ought to be some power of excommuni
cation for those whs violate the rules
of the church. The names or inww
who do not communicate should be
atruxlr nff the role, or DOSted at least.
Dr. H. C. Collins of The Dalles said
that the American church dldn t stumble
much over such antiquated quentions as
that of marrying the deceased wife's
"What we want to do." said he, "Is
for the clergy to band themselves to-B-ether
and sav 'No. we will not marry
anvone whose wife Is still living.' The
for divorce should make no dif
ference. ' We should not perform the
ceremony, in my own i-iuirun n-i
Dalles I am confronted with the prob
lem. I will not marry those whose
wives are living. Therefore such people
go to other parishes, are married, apd
return to my church, for communion
T cannot denv It to them without creat
ing a scene, and there is nothing for me
to do. We are absolutely without laws
to govern us In fhe matter, but we
ought to- agree not to perform such
ceremonies."
Br. Morrison's "Annuals."
Dr. Arthur A. Morrison, rector of
Trinltv church of this city. In a well
delivered: address declared that the great
problem before the church was the
mass of useless people, whose names
are carried on tne roles or tne cnurcn
but who for years have had no com
fnunion with her. "Of at least as great
mportanca-rif not greater than that
of securing new converts Is that of
keeping those we have," declared Dr.
Morrison. "In the first place, there are
theme people who come but once a year
usually at Easter, and for whom I
have cVlne'd the name 'the annuals.'
These don't amount to much, but we
cannot -drive them rrom tne cnurcn
we must work to make them come
oftener. Our only hope of success Is
to raise the standard oi our members
to a higher appreciation of their privi
lege as members of - the ' church and
their obligation to maintain their Inter
ests and her own conjointly. I con
sider m v own church of Trinity to be
a splendid type, and yet a great deal
or rauit can ne rouna wtxn it rrom tne
spiritual point jot view. I would not
dare estimate the proportion of con
verts who have not communed for years.
This ought not to be. The rector has
no authority to say.
"The church requires -you to be here
at least once so often or you shall be
listed merely as a confirmed person.
'The churrh. admonishes, but has no
discipline. The people regard the church
as toleratrng their neglect and are sure
that their names are being carried on
the roles whether they commune or not.
The rector has no authority to say any
thing more than TTou ought to do this
tning.- we need a ooay or loyal peo
ple and I will venture to say there Js
not a. clergyman in the church -but Is
grieved by the indifference of his peo
ple to the church.".;,; ; . .
'. , Blame laid on Bishops..
Dr. Farrar of Sacramento tether laid
the blame for the matter upon the
bishops. He said there was no canon
f riving the priests authority ta dlsnlp
ine, nothing In the rubicund, and when
the priests tried such measures they re
ceived no Episcopal support. - There
fore he thought the whole matter hope
less, i
i '
if.
LAV -
This Irritated Bishop Robinson of Ne
vada. Bishop Robinson is the newest
bishop In the church, and he declared
that the binhopn did support the clergy
in their discipline, but that the clergy
seldom made any attempts at discipline.
Bishop Paddock of eastern Oregon sug
gested that the clergymen keep a list
of those who attend communion and
suggested that a basket in which each
communicant might drop his card after
attending communion might show who
came and who dldn t. ue said it was
not feasible to remove the names from
the rolls of the church, whether the
confirmed attended communion or not.
Bishop Hcaddlng suggested that the list
of those confirmed be posted In the
church, and that after the names of
such as did not attend communion at
least occasionally the significant letters
"i. W." be placed. D. W. to stand for
"dead wood."
The business session scheduled for
this morning was postponed until this
afternoon, owing to the inability of
many members to reach Portland In
lime, ror tne morning session, riev. J.
E. H. Simpson was chairman of the
session, Rev. Oeorge B. Van Waters,
secretary.

Franclsoo and F. 8. Spauldlng of Utah.

LOW TAX RATE IS
County Assessor B. D." Stgler has re
ceived a list of questions relative to
Portland taxation from the Philadel
phia Press, and believes that the re
quest came because of the fact that the
low rate or taxation in vogue in tne
Rose City is becoming known In other
parts or the country.
Because of this fact Assessor Blgler
Is convinced that Portland's best ad
vertising medium Is Its low tax rate.
He showed a statement of tax rates
from various cities in the United
States today and Portland was at the
bottom of the list. In the central busi
ness district of Chicago the rate Is 72
mills, while In Portland the rate Is
only 14.2 mills.
Seattle taxpayers have hd a con
tinuous nightmare since the tax rate
for the Puget sounrf city was announced
at the Deginnin
of the year. The rate
in Seattle is
6 mills against Port-
land's 14..
The answers to the auestions asked
Mr. Slgler by the Press are to be used
In an almanac to be got out for dis
tribution throughout the country.
