They waited for me fet the union station, but I got off at the Morrison street station not because I was afraid of them, but because that ' was the nearest place to where I wanted to go. i Their clairvoyanta weren't good enough to tell them where I got off. I'm not afraid of them." Mra. Selp said that ahe and her or ganisation refuse to admit that there la any other meeting or tne state associa tion being held in Portland.

The response to the address of wel come was made by Rev. d. C. Love. "I stand before you," he said, "thoroughly. In touch ' with the higher power.

"We have no disposition." she said, "to sy anything about any one.else. Truth will tke care of itself. The time Is propitious for beginning a new effort In our work. It is up to us to come up to the full measure of our duty. We do not peed to deprecate our causa In the least degree. We know that our philosophy underlies all that Is in the worm. .. - Kr.

Also he r-r-r-rolled hla r-r-r-rs. He spoke for some time, dilat ing on the fact, which he stated, that the majority of the men of aclence, es pecially those who are members of the Chuch of England, are Spiritualists. "The church has known all along," he said, "the realltv of spiritualism. Spir Ituallsm la youra and mine because we have loved some one who has gone be fore and we want to know how they are living." Mrs. Althea Bailey called upon the convention to come down t earth for a moment for some nlaln i facts. "The experience of the past year, "she said, "has beeri a lesaon to us all.

He felt that the work of the past year had been the rjest ever done in tne state or uregon, "especially since the old organization waa killed by causes I need not men tion." "This is not & vaudeville perform ance, lasting for the moment, out a religion of the aoul. Isn't It about time for us to look and be like other neoDle. Isn't It about time for us- to He law- abiding and law-respecting.? There- are three thinga which we should adopt tomorrow: Conservatism, concentration and consecration." .

Down at the other meeting, 1,0, the Allsky building,, the crowd was amaller but the claim to be the only genuine convention of the Oregon. Spiritualists' association no less emphatic. The state- ment was made that proceedings had been considerably hampered by the fact that the Yanckwlch organization had got possession of the books and. conse quently It was difficult to find out ex actly what had been done during the year. The morning session was a short one, taken uo mostly by the reports of of ficers and committees. An extract from the minutes of the secretary says: "Mra. Lou Ellen Cornell gave a complete and beautiful report of the year's work for which she was given a rising vote of thanks and appreciation." The report says: "Our president. Mrs. Sophia B. Selp, has worked under great strain and I am sorry to say much envious opposition Instead as it should have been united errort in tne cause. "All work has been faithfully car ried on by our president and. board of directors under very strenuous and try ing circumstances, but trusting tnat rising through the dark night a new dawn of light may appear whereby 'truth crushed to earth will rise again the eternal f-eara of God are hers. While error wounded writhes in pain and dies among Its worshipers. Yours Tor trutn, "LOU ELLEN CORNELL."
