This is the view the New York
Herald takes of the action in Dr.
Woodrow’s case: “The Presby
terians want it distinctly understood
that they do not believe in the ihod
key «o the -parent of the human race.
WeU, we admit, in confidence, of
oourse, that Darwin was a little off
in that matter. lie got hold of a
half truth, and that is worse than a
blunder. Judging from the kind of
time the humaa race bad during the
last few thousand years we may
afely amend his therory by the
bold assertion that our common an
cestors were a monkey and a parrot.
That hypothesis will hold its own
against all comers.”
THE PBOBITIONISTS.
There were tumultuous times in
the National Prohibition Convention
at Indianapolis Thursday, women be
ing the cause of the trouble. It
aaid by one of the delegates
every woman suffragist in the United
States was present, and every one
the dear creatures was lobbying as
only woman can lobby, for the in
sertion of a suffrage plank in the plat
form. When the Chairman of the
Committee on Resolutions came in
to the hall with that veteran in the
cause, Francis E, Willard, clinging
to hia arm. The majority report
included the suffrage plank, and this,
after hours of tumultuous discussioD,
during which every member of the
Prohibition party wanted to make
himself heard and a table was
to piecet by the gavel of the
man, was adopted. The platform
also favors, besides the most strin¬
gent prohibition regulations, the
abolition of the internal revenue sys
tern, whereby liquor would be great
If cheapened; tariff reform; civil ser
vice reform; the abolition of polyg
amy; uniform laws governing prohibition mar
riage and divorce; the
“trusts;*’ laws enforcing the observ¬
ance national of Sunday; differences; arbitration and the of restric. inter¬
tion of immigration. Gen. Clinton
B. Fisk, of New Jersey, was nomina

IXOERSOLL 03 GLADSTONE. '
CoL Robert G. Ingarsoll publishes
ia the North American Review, a
characteristic mosaic of hamor, ear
oaam, argument and sophistry in aa
awer to Mr. Gladstone's recent criti
oism of his religions views He
brings forward bis customary cxrica
tares of the events and general evo
lotion of ancient biblical history, and
presents to the reader an abandsnt
array of startling antitheses, bet as
usual, be avoids the hither
end &f the progression in what Chris
tians call The New Dispensation, and
claim as the ripened fruitage of the
old-
Tbir, however, constitutes to-day
the organic law of those nations
which rule the world in their most
advanced stages of enlightment—of
knowledge and science. By common
consent, the leaders of thought in
those nations, which are at the acme
of the world’s evolutions in science
and morality, have enthroned that
dispensation as a whole, its stand
ards and ethics, to say nothing of its
superhuman or spiritual phasee, as
ths supreme law of all practical and
and social organisms and tenets.
They constitute for all issues and
tests as affecting or concerning men
bat as individuals and as parts of
civil,social or practical organizations,
the coart of highest appeal. This,
then, is the highest reach of which
the most civilized part of
the human race has as yet
proven itself to be capable, and when
CoL Ingersoll turns his gibes and
t&nnts upon this sanctuary of the
ethics of modern civilization, or any
of iis integral parts, he is guilty of
sacrilege to civilization, as well as
the organic moral law upon which it
is founded, and from which it draws
its highest and final sanctions.
It is the freak of a reckless iconoc
last whose only work, if not his only
aim, is a condition of nihilism of mor
ale as the only resort necessary or
available after destroying the author
ity of the highest standard attaina
ble by men. And the worst of it is,
he is as helpless as an infant in any
effort he might assay in the way of
theorizing out a system of physical
evolution as a substitute for that
which common people accept. The
physical parts of the world are at
least palpable, undeniable facts to
which even the Ingersolis can not
deny existence, and yet Ingersoll
would be as helpless &•» any unletter
ed Ethiopian in explaining bow a
single atom of it came into being.
He kuowB so much that he ought to
be able to tell ns this at least, who
made the first physical atom in the
universe, and who made the maker
of it? The world is full of them, as
wo all see, but who made the first?
Adam Was Made of Dost.
Adam was made of dust.
Mau has not descend from th®
monkey, nor ascended from the mon
key.
That is the position of the Presby
terian church.
The southern general assembly, in
deciding Dr, Woodrow‘8 case, has ex
pressed itself as follows;
Now, therefore, it is the judgement
of the general assembly that Adam’s
body was directly fashioned by A1
mighty God ont of the dust of the
ground without any natural animal
parentage of any kind. The wisdom
of God prompted him to reveal the
fact, while the inscrutable mode
His action herein was not revealed.
While, therefore, the church does
propose to touch, handle or coDclnde
any question of science which belongs
to God's 1 kingdom of nature,
must, by her divine constitution,
that these questions are not
npon her to break the silence
scripture and supplement by
scientific hypothesis concerning
mode of God’s being or the acts in
creation which are inscrutable to us.
The assembly does not intend
Dr. Woodrow shall commit
church to the doctrine of evolution.
Leaving science severely alone, the
church plants itself on the declara
tion: ‘-And the Lord God formed
man of dust of the ground and
breathed into his nostrils the breath
of life; and man became a livin soul.”
The “reconciliation” between Sci
ence aud Religion seems to be fur
ther off' than some people think.—
