Closer relation* of the Presbyterian churches will he an Important matter to be discussed at the general assem bly. Discussion of this subject has ex tended over five years and Anal action will doubtless be taken by the assem bly at thl* muting. The movement In the Presbyterian and Reformed church es bad Its genesis In tbs foreign mis sion fleld and plane were formed among those eburch workers In heathen coun tries for dour relations between mls- stonarlu In Japan, China, Mexloo and every part of the pagan world. Th* first effort to bring about such a move. K nt among the churches In the United itcs occurred when a number of Presbyterian ministers living In Nash ville orertured the general > a*aembly, which met In Jackson, Miss.; In >1901 to appoint a committee to> consider th advisability of organic union with the Dutch Reformed (Presbyterian) church. The overture was referred to a com mlttse of which Dr. II. C. DuBose was chairman. The committee brought In a majority and a minority report—the majority report expressed "the opinion that a question of such grave Impor tance should come before the assem bly In a mors official manner; and that we deem It Inadvisable to take action until th* desire of the two churches Is moro definitely known." The minority report recommended the appointment of suck a committee. Both reports were placed upon the docket and were not takep up until the last day of the session, when Judge Buckner suggest ed that "we are too near the dose of the session to undertake such an Im portant matter.” Since that time the subject has come up at every succeed ing assembly, a Joint committee bolng appointed from the Southern and the Cumberland churches for the purpose of drawing up articles of agreement. Overtures touching these articles from twenty presbyteries were rccolved by the assembly In areenvlllo last year. The assembly directed that tho ques tion should be sent down to. all .the presbyteries for their expression upon them. A majority of the presbyteries that have acted upon them, It Is claim ed, have been favorable to tho articles of agreement for closer relations with other Presbyterian churches. This fact makes the question one of the lives! Issues at the coming assembly. Everything In Readiness. For the past month local Presbyte rians have been making ready for th* general assembly. The program was completed several day* .ego and the chairmen of vnrious committees an nounced today that everything ready for the big assembly.
