THE NEW SOUTHERN METHODIST

BISHOP.
On the 21st of May the Rev. John Christian Keener
was elected Bishop OF the Methodist Episcopal
Church South by the General Conf erence in session
at Memphis Tennessee. Bishop Keener was born
in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1919. In his ninth year
he entered the Wilbraham Academy, Massachu-
sets, of which DR.. Fisk was then principal. Three
years afterwards DR.. Fisk removed to the Wes-
leyan University, at Mddletown, Connecticut, and
MIR. Keener entered the first regular class that was
formed in that institute. He graduated in 1885 and
went into the drug business In Baltimore. At the
end OF one year in business on his own account he
resolved to become minister OF the Gospel, and
Immediately sold out that he might qualify himself
for that office. He removed to Alabama and was
licensed to preach in 1s42 The following year he
was admitted to the Alabama Conference. The ap-
pointments to which he assigned in sue
ceedng years were arduous and responsible.
Ia 1S4S a man of peculiar qualifications was
needed for the work Of the Church In New Orleans,
which was then considered difficult and dangerous
post MIR. Keener was selected. He has. been
almost continuously since that time identified with
the cause OF Methodsm and Of Professionalism in
that city, He has been presiding elder of the dis
tict with brief Interruptions since 1859. Since 1866
he has discharged in addition to those of presiding
elder, the duties OF editor of the New Orleans
Christian Advocate. He has devoted especial care
TO the coored churches and has been very success
ful with them. His services during the prevalence
OF the yellow fever and other epdemics re-
membered gratefully. lie is diligent student and
strong writer. He is man of positive charact ter
and OF principle, with which he combines pleasing
address, and willingness to compromise on non
essential points. The degree Of d. ID. was conferred
on him by Lagrange College in 1856.
The Methodist Episcopal Church South now has
eight bishops

ABOLITION OF THE LNCOHE TAX
The income tax came up for discussion yes
terday in the House of Representatives, and
excited a lively debate, in which both sides
of the question We're probably as we'll stated
as they could be. Those who favored the
continuance of the tax advanced the old ar
guments that it produced large revenue;
that it fell upon the rich, and not upon the
poor; and that it was the fsirest aud m ost
equitable tax that could be imposed. The
advocates of the tax seemed to forget that
one of the main objections to it is it's inanisi-
t orial character. The people of this country
are of the opinion that any law which
makes them disclose their priv tte
business affairs is far more
offensive than one which will take a mich
larger sum from their pockets. Such law
would never have been imposed by Congress
except under the pressure of very urgent
necessity, and now that the necessity has
