and no part in its deliberations.
„ v- —* ........ discussion
the three overshadowing issues will he the
— the modifies
modification of thw episcopacy, the modlflra

lengthening or tho abolition of the pastorate

Various restrictions upon the bishop fi

' ’recall” is one of them. A limited instead
of a lif» inrumbeney hat been considered.
The advice and consent of the cabinet

One prominent church man has said
••There la a present crisis In the ehureh, in
regard to the presiding eldership,*' and a
other, “Mr. Wesley used to carry Met hoi

What may be railed a compromise u

Eliminate Word 8outh.
Those who contended in the Birmingham
conference for a reinstatement of th« faith
pointed out, among other things, that the
•rtiefas of faith contain no specific declara
tion of tbv duty and responsibility of the
church to evangelise the world, while some
of their declarations relate to temporal con*
ditiona that hare passed. The matter wa*
referred to a committee, of which Pr. W.
F. Tillett, of Nashville, is chairman, to re-
port at this conference. It is possible that
interest In the matter has somewhat abated;
neither the Northern church nor the Wee*
„ trg< .
pedal I v hr some in the border conferences,
la a change in the church’s name, to climi
nate the word “Houth." Indeed there
various changes In name suggested.
It aeems to he clearly recognired, and
and frankly conceded, that there exists what
may be termed—the verbiage is not
r _. Methodism, and twentieth century
American ideals in the matter of pure de
morraey. There ia an effort, on the part of
a considerable element, “to get away from
the emphasis of doctrine, and emphasise
method.' ’
The session of the conference lasts 21
days, and an attendance of 1,000 to 51,000
more, at various atages of the proceed
ings. is probable.
Each bishop baa charge of one ronfereneo
for the term of one year. Thw bishops
meet and make their own assignments. A
bishop may be returned to the same confer*

unfilled labor? If not, and you are
qualified to join a labor union, why
not? Put thut question to yourself.
Think It out. Tes; you may have
grievance with regard to some union

methods were not all that you would
deem the best and wl*est.
if you hold off because of such ex
periences. att consistently and never
associate yourself w ith any human in

from insurance of any kind; there
never has yet been a perfect system In
practice. Don't Join a building and
loan association; many of them have
failed. Throw down all forms of co
operation; numerous Instances of loss
thru them can bo quoted. Never go
to ehureh or take part In any congre
gational work; there have been sin,
prejudice, slander and hypocrisy In
church, chapel and synagogue. Keep
our offspring away from school; oth
er people's children are wicked; school
rooms are badly lighted nnd ventilated;
too- much time Is given to fads and
frill*. Don't look at a newspaper; full
of lie*. Keep off tho street c«r»; they
are slower than automobiles. Take no
books from the public library: full of
germs that kill. Never travel by the
railroad; accidents occur every day.
"Hut there la little danger that any
rational human lielng will carry out

GENERAL INCREASE OF WAGE8
8ECURE0 BY THE PRESSMEN
The International Pressmen’s union
sending out some Interesting Infor
mation In regard to tho eight-hour
umpalgn now being wnged by that
organisation. A brief summary of thl*
sucres* of the movement up to date
conlulned In tho following article:
'All of the thinkers and student* of
inonilc* recognise that from time to
time under our present system of com
mercial life an Increase In wages Is
necessary to meet tho rapid advance
ment of th* cost of commodities of
life. No one cun suecessfully deny
that a Iiermniieney In wage today
means a retrogmtlon, and ultimately
brings a reduction In our stundard of
living.
"The International Printing Press
men mid Assistants union encourages
and secures for Its member* advance,
meat In wages In accordance with the
conditions of Industry, and from time
to time negotiation* are opened with
the employers and Increases in their
wages established.
“In 1908 there were 60 cities on the
North American continent where the
ages of the membership of the In
ternational Printing Pressmen and As
sistants union were advanced and thou
sands of men as a result of this move
ment were beneflted by un Increased
Income, making It possible for them to
meet the requirements of life, to edu
cate their children nnd provide addi
tional opportunities for their duty to.
ward society.
"The international Printing Press,
men and Assistants union in Novem
ber, 1907, inaugurated n plan for the
establishment of the eight-hour work
day in Hie priming press rooms of (lie
continent. The success of thl* move,
ment can be lietter understood when
the fact Is cited that today out ot a
membership of 22,00n there are less
than *00 who have yet failed to re
ceive this just consideration.
"Thru numerical strength and con
centrated action In collective bargain
ing. amicable adjustments have been
made of these many difference*, and
fair and Just trades agreements arrived
at. assuring peace In the Industry and
permanency of employment. Not in all
ease* were the unions referred to and
their members successful In securing
for themselves the distribution that
they were justly deserving of. but In
those eases responsibility for the fail
ure rests upon the shoulders of those
who have so far declined tltelr affilia
tion with the International Printing
Pressmen and Assistants union."

Into, the sudden death of Charles Bes
sant, who two week* ago was found
dead In a lot here and whose remains
were subsenquently exhumed on the
theory that he had been poisoned. Tha

this was not correct, and the stomach
was sent to the chemist for analysis.
