TV. 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.
' " Summing up his Observations of Euro
pean conditions Mr. Fenton said:
"There is much of Interest In the old
world of course, but the course of em
, pire lies On the American continent,
"Great Britain ia certainly first in
'commerce and manufacture and Ger-
i . many second, but it is certain that
within fifty years the United States will
. lead botft, Germany is the most aggres
. sive country in Europe and her people
are strong, homogenous and united.
"The British Isles are on the border
llne of peaceful revolution in many
inings.

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
