Such authority was given Governor Patterson by n Joint resolution of the Tennessee legislature, approved last *Inreh. The proclamation says: “The pur pose of this meeting Is self-evident.

The abler statesmen, publicists, philan thropists nud thinking people generally are addressing themselves assiduously to nil adjustment of these matters, nml I urge upon nil Inlior organization* to choose and send delegates of eonscrratlfttn, probity, aldllty und discretion who will meet nn«l vhc serious thonglit to the questions men tioned and take such action iis may com- u« nd Itself to their good Judgment." Washington, Aug. 9.—James M. Griggs, representative In congress from the second district of Georgia, chnlnnnn of the Dem ocratic congressional committee, has given out the following Interview on the pres ent railroad controversy: '.There Is too more reason for Federal In terference In the regulation of railroads by the states now than during the life of the first Interstate commerce law< The Hep burn law doe* not anywhere disregard the rights of the states, but on the other baud Carefully refrains from doing so. "Why a United States Judge should feel empowered by this law to filter Into nil the states of the union, and nullify regu lations made solely to rover snd control transportation within the stntes la beyond the ken of those who believe In the con stitution. The reason for this can be found only in the evident desire aud Intention of the Judges iff United Stntes courts to extend their Jurisdiction to the furthest limit possible. Even the administration yielded ou this point In the North Caro lina contest, nod. In my opinion. It will yield completely when the supreme court S ets through with the eases about to come efore It. “The United 8tates has never granted any rights to the states. The states In convention created the United States, and unequivocally reserved to themselves all rights not granted In the constitution to their creature, the United Stntes. “If the fact that railroads run from one state to another confers Jurisdiction on the United States courts ns to matters strictly concerning the npctlous of railroads entirely within the stated, then one man who shoots another across the line between North Car olina nnd Virginia mast lie tried by the United Stntes court, nnd not by the state within which tho crime was committed."

It was set set forth wherein the Cumberland Presbyterian dissented from the West minster confession. They were as fol lows: 1. That there are no eternal repro bates. 2. That Christ died, not for a part only, but for all mankind. 3. That all Infants dying In Infancy are saved through Christ and the sanc tification of the Spirit. 4. That the Spirit of God operates on the world, or as co-extenslvely Christ has made atonement, In such manner as to leave all men excusable. , In 1906 the Cumberland Presbyterian church contained seventeen synods, 114 presbyteries and 200,000 members. For years efforts have been under way to reconcile the two branches. In 1901 It took definite ehape, and committees from the two churches were named to consider the question of a union of the two bodies. At a meeting of the gen eral assembly In Decatur, III., In May, 1906, the recommendation of the com mittee for reunion was adopted. The dissenting members of the Cum berland Presbyterian church, however, declined to accept this action, and con stituted themselves Into the general as. sembly of the Cumberland Presbyterian church. The case here arose over a question of Jurisdiction by this assem bly. The Case In Atlanta. R. R.

The general assembly of the Cum berland Presbyterian church, under the constitution of that organization, has executive, legislative and Judicial au thority. It Is the highest court of the church, anil also the highest authority In legislative and executive matters. When the provisions of the constitution In reference to the authority of the gen eral assembly, are taken together with, nnd In the light of, the purposes for which the organization was formed, and the history and antecedents of the or ganization Itself, a reasonable con struction of the terms of the constitu tion gives to the general assembly au thority to determine whether the teach- Inge and doctrines nnd form of gov ernment of another org&nlzation are In accord with It, and. If so, to unite with such organization upon such terms and under such name ns the Judgment of the general assembly shall dictate. History of tho Church. The Cumberland Presbyterian church was organized In Dickson county; Ten nessee. February 4, 1810. In three years tly, church had three Presbyteries and they met In 1813 nnd constituted a synod. In the "Brief Statement” It was “The Daylisrht Corner” •Bare suggestions for men who want to be well-clothed; in all games of life wc have to bear and forbear.

One material difference. It was charged, was that tho Cumber land church did not bring the races to gether and that the Northern Presby terian did. Church rPoperty. Dr. Klme and others were trustees of the First Cumberland church prop erty of Atlanta, and It was held that they had nlade a loan deed to secure on Indebtedness of $5,900, $4,600 of which was unpnld. Moreover that 32,- 200 of other Indebtedness was outstand ing against the property. They sought to prevent the transfer of the property to the Northern Presbyterian church. It was chargde that the conduct of the defendant (Dr. Mack) had greatly dam. aged the usefulness of the church and Impaired its financial resources. Judge Pendleton's Decision. Judge Pwulleton held that the union of the two churches was null and void and granted the Injunction prayed for. This decision the supreme court re versed. Justice Cobb holds that every Indi vidual has the right to determine for himself all of those questions which relate to his relation to the Creator of the Universe, and that no civil au thority can coerce him to accept any religious doctrine, nor restrain him from association with any class or or ganization which promulgates religious views. It Is altogether a matter of In dividual conscience, with which no hu man authority hae the slightest right to Interfere. Justice Cobb's Opinion, "When on Individual becomes a mem, ter of a religious organisation his unit ing with the same Is hs voluntary act, and he beeomse bound by the rules ami usages of the organzatlon. As to all matters purely ecclesiastical he Is bound by the decisions of the tribunals fixed by the organization to which he belongs ns nn arbiter to determine Ihe disputed questions relating to matters peculiarly within the province of the organization. "We will not undertake to determine whether the Judgment of the general assembly Is corect. The constituted tribunal of the church has determined the question, and, whether determined rightly or wrongly, as a civil court, having nn ecclesiastical Jurisdiction whateyer, we will not attempt to re vise the conclusions nnd findings of those who arc learned In the eccle siastical law." The attorneys for the advocates of church union were Judge John M. Gaut. of Nashville, and Edgar V. far ter, of Atlanta; against church union. Judge W. C. Caldwell, of Nashville, and F. M.

Despite ths published rumor that tha saloonlsts of Atlanta may moke an ef fort to have the liquor regulations changed so that the closing hour will be later than 16 o’clock, nothing In thlg line has materialized, and It Ib not be lieved that such an effort will be mads. Recently In Macon, the hour of clos ing was changed from 11 o'clock to IX o'clock on the ground that the whisky men could have better opportunity of closing out their stock before the pro hibition law goes Into effect. It Is not believed that such a propo sition will be suggested In Atlanta or that the council would seriously con sider It If made. The present regula tions have been enforced since 1219.
