XK Fenton and Mr. Fenton have .returned from a six Months' tour of the British Isle and continental ? Burets, having visited many places of historic Interest. Like all returning --trYelers-they have come home with the realisation that in no other place can life be bo largo. - "Ne section of the United 'States promises more growth than Portland and the northwest," said Mr. Fenton. "No partjpf Europe that I have visited tan ; clal the "great natural advant ages we possess. Portland Is the gate way for the commerce and trade from a territory of nearly 260,000 square miles, the largest area tributary to .any one city. ' "One thing only remains to be done. Portland must lead this great empire ,1a the opening of the channel to the ea and the greatest fresh water port In the world will be located here if the channel to the sea shall be made 40 feet over the bar and 35 feet to Astoria, "Men, money and brains can do this far better at Portland and Astoria than like effort accomplished in the MerBey at Liverpool. The problem is imlaent, important and must be quickly solved. Without tbTs development the Panama canat will be of little service to Port land or the great Columbia basin." American Destined to X,ead.

BANKRUPT Peter's Furniture Crest Chsne for Thote Starting Housekeeping 63 Fifth Street Corner Pine Plans for a great Methodlat church at Twelfth and Taylor streets bid fair to an come to naught, notwithstanding uuuuiiig runa oi lau.ouu to commune wora is two thirds raised and plans lor an imposing edirice have been drawn and even published. Plans to erect a new house of wor ship followed the reconsolidation a few months ago of the First Methodist, or, as it is better known, the Taylor Street Methodist church, and Orace Methodist church, which years ago sep arated from the First church and es tablished a separate institution at Twelfth and Taylor streets. With the reuniting of the two church bodies, it was planned to abandon the site of the first church. Either it was to be sold or the premises utllUed for a business block. Commercial Vie Prohibited. An examination of the articles of in corporation of the old Taylor Street church reveals a clause, however, which states that the site at Third and Tay lor streets must be used perpetually for church purposes. Unless this ar ticle can be repealed, it effectually nullifies all the hope for a new churoh at Twelfth and Taylor streets, for it had been the plan of the church offi cials either to sell the old site or erect thereupon h building for office purposes, utilising the revenue there from for the new structure To amend the articles of incorpora tion would require a three fourths vote of its members, and as there Is oppo sition to moving, this would be diffi cult to obtain. There is a strong likelihood that the First Methodist church will split into its component parts, each returning to its former status. such nn action however, is subject to the approval of Bishop P.. J. Cooke. Conference May Have Solution. The quarterly meeting of the con ference of the First church will be held Monday night, and it is posMiblu that the matter will be brought to a vote at that time. It is also possible that the matter may Le laid before the Western Oregon conference which meets at Eugene next week. It was originally intended to soil the lot at Third and Taylor for $100,000, and with I&0.000 additional put up I J 150,000 structure at Twelfth and Tay lnr streets. Of this amount 3,000 has already been pledged. The prohibitory clause in tljc church's articles iia-s always paibiiu, uui uau been entlroly forgotten. Many mem bora of the congregation fnel that there Is no adequate solution to the problem other than separation of the church into its original component parts. "SNAKE" P00LE, OPIUM , SMUGGLER, IS ARRESTED San Francisco, Sept 20. News of the arrest at El Paso of George Or rln Poole, also known as "Snake" Poole, and George Moore, on a charge Of com plicity in a big opium smuggling plot, was received by the federal uuthof-ltleS here today.
