may assemble in their usual places Of public
worship, and with humility and reverence,
consecrate the day TO the customary religious
solemnilies, Let us, at that time, with sim
cere desires, present ourselves before the
Supreme Ruler Of the Universe and the
Giver Of all Good, and supplicate His still
further forbearance towards Us for our nu-

implore His continued and constant care
over the interests of our beloved Common
wealth. Let US beseech Him TO bless the
coming season, so that the earth may yield

glory, and the safety, honor and prosperity
OF His people; and that peace and happiness,
truth and justice, and the institutions Of pure

VERMONT TELEGRAPH.
BRANDON, WEDNESDAY. MARCH %, 1912
Popular Religious Leaders and Reform.
The f" Vermont Baptist Journal,

The " Vermont Baptist Journal"
In accordance with call issued in the
specimen number Of this thew paper" a
Convention was held in this village, on
Wednesday the 10th inst. The public meet
ing was held in the Baptist Vestry. The
call was addressed TO "the Baptist Church
es Of Vermont" from a Committee who
used language calculated and designed to
give the impression that they had been APP
pointed by the Convention Of delegates
from "the Baptist Churches of Vermont"
BY this deceptive flourish they got together,
besides the attendants from Brandon, the
whole and entire number Of seventeen per-
sons Ia majority Of them of the "populaI
clergyn of course-from three Associations
out Of the nine. Those who attended from
Brandon were Of various classes and de-
scriptions. The aristocrats and monopolists
OF the Baptist church attended for the pur-
pose of helping on the enterprise. The
Telegraph has disturbed them sadly in their
corruption and despotism for the last half
dozen years; and they are ready for any
thing that will do il an injury. They know
and feel their inability 10 make any head
way against it with truth and fair dealing
and this remark will apply to all who are
engaged in the crusade-so they will cut of
its pecuniary resources if possible. To be
the more efectual in this way, they were
bent on transferring the publication OF the
paper from Middlebury TO Brandon. In this
they have the sympathy and cooperation Of
their brethren aristocrats and monopolists
Of other denominations, some Of whom were
present and looking on with anxious solicit
tude. Several, of other classes, were in,
merely as spectators. Communications were
read from number Of individuals. One
from, brother Johnson, of Hines5urgh, CEN
surfing the privacy Of the doings at Poult-
ney-he having been member Of the Con-
vention, and not knowing anything Of the
appointment Of the Committee. Another
from J. D. Farnsworth went against the dis
eussion Of the Capital Punishment question
m their columns. He need take no alarm
on this point. He will not be troubled with
much OF i in the Journal, unless the dis
.cussion be found popular = and then J. D.
-Farnsworth will be ready for il Of course
II be will look again be will see tba, tho,

egraph as Baptist paper. / have some
distinct things to say on this point, which
shall be- embodied in paragraph, or para
graphs, by themselves either in this paper
or in some future numbers. Those who
were present in person from abroad were
called on 10 make statements as 10 the pros
poets Of their enterprise. Some OF them
talked large things especially two al the
three from The Woodstock Association

sociation, bent on ruling or running. They

the State Convention the Committee were
appointed. BY q0hons? The answer to this
question necessarily comes by inference
And what fac, or intimation is given from
which it can possibly be inferred that the
Committee were otherwise appointed than
in "the meeting of the State Convention -?
Not one. .Again,-"It was there ascertain
ed" &c. Where ascertained? Where but
in "the meeting of the State Convention ~
No other place is designated, either by d.
rect statement, or the most indirect or dis
tant intimation. Again, still, -" Your Com
mttee," &c. Whose Committee? Whose
but the Committee of the "Baptist Church
es Of Vermont" appointed by their delegates
in the meeting of the State Convention -?
Having thus briefly replied TO the charge of
unfairness, sat down. John A. Conant, of
this village, Immediately moved an adjourn
ment of the meeting. 1t was plain that he
discovered, as all others did, by that time,
that the more they undertook to defend or
to cover up their fraudulent proceeding, the
more they exposed themselves and got ex-
posed. The only prudent course for them
was to stop discussion, which they did by
dissolving their meeting. After the disso-
luton Of the meeting, brother Freeman came
and pat,ed me on the shoulder very good
naturally, as if to cajole me out Of the
common sense view of the case. I then
charged it upon him directly and plainly
in view of his denial that the language was
used Inadvertently - that it was framed
understandingly, and with express reference
| to giving the impression that the Committee
were appointed by the Convention. And
he did not deny it. Nobody can mistake
the object of the Committee in practcing
this deception. 1t was TO give character to
| their proceedings and thus obtain favor with
the people. # they will practice gross de-
ceplion for such an object, why not for 9th
ers? If they will use such deceivaoeness
Of unrighteousness to ingratiate themselves
into the favor of the people, why are they
not to be expected to continue in like iniqui-
tous practices for the gaining of like and
other objects? 1t proceeds on the same
ground that they continue their alliance and
cooperation with menstealers. 1t is the re-
suit of the foul doctrine that the end sancti-
fes the means. "But if ye have bitter
envying and strife in your hearts, glory not,
and lie not against the truth. This wis
dom descendeth not from above, but is
earthly, sensual, devilish."
P. S. can not refrain from noticing a
closing incident. AS they were about dis
solving their meeting, it was proposed to
sing the Union Hymn. Brother J. W. Che
neg, Baptist Caorister in this place, was
requested to lead. He told then, that song
aoas sentimental qDith him - they must
| therefore ercuse hint-he had his reasons.
This honest, faithful, and manly rebuke,
embarrassed them worse, if possible, than
the truth told them by brother Hotchkiss.-
For such christian faithfulness, such re-
fusal to act the part of hypocrite, brother
Cheney may expect persecution. But l
trust and am confident he will be able to
bear it.

"Brother Freeman Sir - Lest my ST.
lence should strengthen you in the belief
of that which is false and slanderous, feel
under obligation to inform you that brother
O. S. Murray has never since he resided In
this place, been before any tribunal for per-
sonal misdemeanor. Neither has he in any
degree forfeited christian character Or conf
dence, In consequence Of any personal diff
culties he may have had, out Of which I'm.
