GRIFFIN METHOD!
Arc InterestedliTtkeViews of Bishop
Xnvman of the Northern Church.
—
The Methodists of Griffin are in¬
terested in the views of Bishop New¬
man of the Northern Methodist
church resspecting the attitude of
the Northern Methodists toward the
negro and white church in the South.
Bishop Newman has been holding
a conference in Nashville, and he is
reported as saying that he had
censed to hope for the union of tlie
two churches—the North and South
—but that he favors an ecumenical
Methodism consisting of three gen¬
eral conferences. One to include the
Northern Methodist, another the
Southern Methodist, and the third,
all Methodists of the negro race,
itisnop nEwman’s former views.
Bishop Newman at one time was
very pronounced in favor of tlie col¬
ored people, so much so, in fact, that
he partially favored equal social re¬
lations; but that was during slavery ,
or just prior to the outbreak of the
civil war, and his views have under¬
gone a radical change since those
times. He has been in the Sout h a
good deal of late years, and he has
gathered the best information upon
the subject. His first visit was made
as a minister appointed by President
Grant whose chaplain Bishop New¬
man was. He spent a long' time
South and possibly from then dated
his change of views respecting the
missionary work. His idea now
seems to be to let the Northern and
Southernconferences remain districts
.
so far as the work in their respective
sections is concerned, but they should
co-operate in organizing the colored
Methodists into a single organizaeion.
THE COLORED CHTRCH.
There are at present four different
organizations of Methodists holding
to the same belief, but having differ¬
ent heads, they represent about 1,-
250,000 of people. ,
In an interview with a Methodist
yesterday a News and Sun reporter
learned that it is a question to which
much thought and consideration is
beihg given. If the views of Bishop
Newman are carried out they believe
that the entire Methodist denomina¬
tion will be benefited. The two sec¬
tions will cease their labors in each
others territory, and will thus be en -
abled to concentrate their forces in
their own Work. Touching the course
to be pursued respecting the colored
contingent, they believe that neither
section should act directly in behalf
of the colored people, but both should
combine to aid in effesting a single
organization.
FOUR church organizations.
There are at present four colored
organizations, known as the
Northern Colored Methodist, Zion
Colored Methodist, Northern African
Methodist and the Colored Methodist
of America. The lurgest part of the
membership is in the south, and
there could not be an objection to a
combine vital enough to endanger
the harmony of the church. On the
contrary it is believed that to unify
the organizations would solidify th<
body and from its efforts then the
greatest amount of good might be
accomplished. It is believed that the
solution of the race problem lies
largely in christianizing the colored
people. If this is done by the south,
ern people, or even partly by them,
it will tend to draw the races togeth¬
er in a religious sense, and it will
have a tendency to cause them to be¬
come more united, and there will be
an inclination on the part of the
white people, who have the power, to
make advances to the negro, who is
the weaker.
THE MISSIONARY WORN.
It appears that three of the four
colored Methodist organizations
were organized by missionaries from
the north, and only one was organiz¬
ed by the southern Methodists.
Naturally, the organization affected
by the aid of the Southern churches
was better thought of than the oth¬
ers, and unconsciously an effort was
made to prosper the one church more
than the others, but socially. When
these practices have been abandoned,
which will surely be the case when the
Northern and Southern come to¬
gether in the organization of the
colored Methodists, the ministers
say that the feelings of a dead and
buried past will be forgotten, and
pleasanter social relations will exist.
REASONS FOR A COMBINE.
The religion of the two white
churches is the same; their literature
is the same, and their doctrine is
identically the same, but yet it is a
fact that they are represented in the
heathen nations by distinct mission¬
aries. The Southern ministers be¬
lieve that this is unnecessary, and if
the changes advocated by Bishop
Newman are put into execution mis¬
sionaries will be sent from America
representing the United States Meth¬
odist conference, instead of theMeth-
odist conference “North” or the con-

Desperado, Captured.
—
Several days ago the police were
put upon notice that Bob Redding, a
negro who has made himself noto¬
rious by his numerous crimes in this
and adjoining States, was in this im¬
mediate section and would probably
pay this city a visit. This sharpened
up the memories of some of the offi¬
cers w ho knew Bob in days past and
so when a tall copper colored negro
man made his appearance on Friday
night at the-Central ticket office and
bought a ticket,, for Atlanta, he
was recognized and taken in custody
by officers Doe and Cunningham
with the assistance of several by¬
standers and lodged in the guard
house. When he was searched there
was found on his person two splen¬
did revolvers and $61/> in money,
$300 being in gold and $315 in cur¬
rency. He was kept in the guard
house for a few hours and was re¬
moved to the county jail, where he
still languishes. Bob boarded the
Georgia Midland train at William¬
son and came to this city. He is well
known throughout this section and
for more than twenty years past has
committed depredation of all kiuds
all over the country. He is a broth¬
er of WilevRedding and they togeth¬
er are leaders of a desperate gang of
burglars, who lately have been operat¬
ing w est of here. He was supposed to
have been one of the parties who it is
said assaulted and robbed Matthews,
the deputy tax collector of Pike
county, but the money found in his
possession description does not correspond with
the of any of the lost
funds. From telegra ms reeei ved here
yesterday Bob is wanted at Culloden,
Monticello, Smarrs, Flovilla, Macon
and Montgomery, Ala., where re¬
wards are offend for arrest and con¬
viction. 'Montgomery wants a photo
so as to be able to identify fully, as
he is not known by that name there.
Ike Torrence, another negro who
was with him, was also arrested on
suspicion and is still held. He had
over $50 on liis peison. They were
doubtless on their way to Atlanta to
join others of the gang. This is an
important capture and Bob will no
doubt get his just deserts.

“The Noble People of Orlflln.”
Under the above heading the
Chattanooga Times states that at
the conclusion of the addresses over
the bodies of Gen. Walker and Priv¬
ate Hackett on Thursday, Rev. J. W.
Bachman arose and said:
“Before pronouncing a benediction
I want to read to the congregation
the following loving greeting from
the Ladies’ Memorial Association of
Griffin, Ga.:

today, and applaud the sentiments
which make your hearts true to the
memory of those who died in obed¬
ience to a chivalric conscience.
W. R. Hanleiter,
for the Ladies’ Memorial Association.
After the reading of this telegram
from the representative oi the noble
ladies who eared for the two dead
soldiers so tenderly for more than, a
quarter of a century, and for which a
murmur of approval went through
the great audience, Dr. Bachman
pronounced the benediction, and the
remains were taken immediately to
Forest Hill Cemetery, escorted as
far as the Union Depot by the band
and the military
The following resolutions were
adopted by Forrest Camp:

ian laud; for the manner in which
our committee have been received,
and in which the bodies of two of our
dead have been surrendered to us!
Resolved, That we are especially
grateful to the ladies and gentlemen
who acted upon the committees who
donated flowers at Griffin, and to
those who assisted us here to reinter
our dead.
