Science and the Bible.

A. the session Of the general assembly
Ai the Southern Presbyterian church at
Baltimore, the case of Rev DIR. Woodrow
of Georgia was resumed, and he continued
the presentation OF his appeal. He quoted
from his speech and writings in which he
supported the idea OF evolution, and said
He had been charged with subordinating
the Scriptures to science. This was not
true. He had never spoken or written Il
word which could bear any such construc-
ton. He had never taught word that
would throw II doubt upon the headship of
Adam, without regard to the manner in
which, or the material OF whichGod formed
lous crea tion. He held all his beliefs to the
teaching OF the Holy Scriptures and to
nothing else SO he holds his opinion as to
the formation OF Adams body. Upon any
subject OF which the Scriptures are silent
he accepts natural history as his
guide but only on such subjects. As
church court the general assembly had
nothing to do with his view outside the
teachings OF the Bible. All it has to do is
to discover il his teachings conflict with
the Scriptures, and if they do not then
the case must end. He quoted from Pad
dineton. Brown and Others their views of
the dust OF which man was formed, mean
ing dust from which, thrC ugh steps from
one stage to another, man came to have
uOmlnfOn over dlI OtneF living
creatures. 1t made no difference
whether the formation OF Adams
body was mediate or immediate. lie was
made living soul, and God made cove
nant with him. The presbytery OF Augusta
could not find a conviction against the
speakers belief for he had not antagonized
the Bible He had not taught that God
had performed his works supernaturally.
That will have to be determined by each
individual mind. lie believed that God
formed man out OF the dust OF the ground,
and yet he was charged With teaching con.
trary to the Bible and the standards be-
cause he went beyond and believed be-
yond what was not contained in them or
upon::which they were silent. To sustain
the synod OF Georgia would be to condemn
all who believe there may be some truth in
evolution. 1t was fact that the church
had new er failed in deciding on science to
decide wrong.
Rev. William Adams of Augusta, the
prosecutor. followed in defense OF the act
ion OF the Georgia synod in suspending Mr.
Woodrow. He said that Mr.. Woodrow
doctrine served to unsettle the minds OF
the church people. and that the question
should be disposed OF by the convention
now and forever.

The accompanying most forcible
expressions from ex Mayor Shredder of
Brooklyn voice the sentiments of all
who lay aside self interests and look
only to the good of the country and its
people at large. They are in marked
contrast to the recent utterances of
another ex.mayor of the same city,
who acknowledges that he will sup
port Mr.. Cleveland because he believes
in free trade.
Mr.. Shredder says:
81 admit that in the Immediate
future my business interests would be
much benefited by the passage Of the
Mills bill. am in favor of revision
of the tariff laws so that such changes
and alterations may be made as the
business interests require, but my ex-
perience as a manufacturer and BUSH
ness man has made me a protectionist
on principle. The protective tariff adj
vanced the prosperity Of the country
more in ten years than a tariff for
revenue only did in fifty years. The
principle Of protection was forced upon
the country by the war, but it was
maintained and defended by the Re-
publican party for twenty-seven years
and has now been adopted as the car
dinal point of the Republican plat
form. l struggled and managed to

workmen of Europe was granted by
Congress; those employed by me began
to earn wages sufficient to live in COM
parative comfort, while before they
had great struggle to find work and
wages enough to keep body and soul
together. The Democrats are for less
protection. Some of them are for
opening the doors little wider; others
are in favor of taking them off the
hinges, but all are in favor Of free
importation of the products of the
cheap labor of Europe and Asia, though

'sSALr is on the free list" Fine salt
costs the housekeeper five cents bag
A bag lasts an ordinary family about a
month. Hence fine salt costs the ordi-
nary family about 90 cents a year.
This frightful outlay of the working
mans money will be reduced by the
Mills bill. A bag OF salt will cost here
after half dime, and as a bag lasts a
whole month, the outlay for salt under
free trade will only betwelve half dimes,
or six dimes. We are almost converted
70 the folly of Calhoun and his mad
Offspring. The workingmen of Will
mington will eat their salt, no doubt,
with great relish when It's price is re-
duced at the above rate and when they
learn that as a consequence Of the
aforementioned reduction and the
Mills bill, thousands Of their fellow
workmen. who now make salt in
America, have been thrown out Of
employment. Another fact that will
add zest to the workingman's salt
after the preceding reduction has been
effected is that it is imported from
Europe. The American workingmi n,
like the dude and the free trader, il
supposed to be fond of imported goods.
"Salt is on the free list But so ia the
American workingman. He votes as
he pleases.

SALT is on the free list And so
will be everything else before 1899 if
Premier Mills and the rest Of Calhoun's
progeny should succeed in putting
their bill through the Senate. Salt
was on the free list before. In
1860 this country imported nearly
every grain of salt sold here,
and we paid SO barrel for it. The
Morrill, tariff placed a small duty
upon salt in 1871 and two years later
a heavy duty was put on it. The free
trader prophesied that salt would cost
50 barrel plus the heavy duty. But
it did not The free traders
prophecies never come true.
The duty thus imposed was
precisely the support that Americans
needed for the manufacture Of salt in
successful competition with the for
eign saltmakers, and hence in very
few years the salt works Of New York
and Western Virginia were developed.
Salt became abundant by virtue Of this
extra competition and therefore cheap
er. Salt is now selling at go cents a
barrel. Pretty soon, should the
Mills bill become a law, the
American salt works would all be
closed up. Then the foreign manu-
facturers, being left ia undisputed con-
troll Of the field, would form trust and
pat salt back again TO the price of
1850. They had monopoly then and
took advantage of it. They will repeat
1t on the first opportunity.

Properly Compared 30 That of the
hondon Fish Woman.

WASHINGTON, July 24.-That much
talked of fisheries treaty was the sub.
ject Of criticism by Senator Davis yes
terday, he desiring its rejection. lie
stated that the Declaration OF indie
pendence was the title of the United
States to the fisheries in the northern
waters.
There was great stir in the Senate
when the interview with Senator
Bayard, which appeared in the Balti-
more Sun, was brought up by an allu-
sion to it, made by Senator Dawes.
Senators Teller, Gray and Hoar con-
tributed to the comments that were
made, the latter saying:
81 read that interview with the pro.
foundest pity-no other sensation.
Measurements, anger and impotent
rage, which somebody imputed to a
high officer of the government, could
only make any patriotic citizen expert
ence a sensation of humiliation, not of
anger. If that interview be true, the
Secretary OF State has learned nothing
in relation to the fishery interests ex-
cept the language Of the London fish
market. j am very glad that there is
q report somewhere that the Secretary
Of State disavows it,"
This interview refers to an apology
from Great Britain in regard to a
Canadian officer hauling down the flag
from an American fishing vessel. Sena-
tors Morgan and Evarts also spoke
briefly in regard to the matter.
There was sensational report by
Senator Wilson to-day from the Judi
ciary Committee. 1t says:
There was suppression of the
votes of coiored citizens at the recent
municipal election of jackson, Miss.
The suppression was not partial, but
total. No colored citizen voted at said
election. For years the colored voters
of jackson had voted without obstruc-
ton. This is an admitted fact. There
is nothing in all the testimony taken
by the committee that tends to contro-
vert It,"
The resolutions at the end of the
report were:
Resolved, That the Senate, in view
of the report made to it in obedience
to its resolution of January 10, 1888,
in respect to the suppression OF the
votes Of the colored citizens of the city
of Jackson, Mics, and the participa-
tion in such suppression by certain
United States officers, as set forth and
described in said report, does hereby
express its strong condemnation Of the
conduct of said officers, and it also ex-
presses its deliberate judgment that
every officer Of the United States 30
engaged or participating should be
promptly dismissed from the public
service as.soon as authentic knowledge
of such engagement or participation is
brought to the attention of the ap
pointing power.
"Resolved, That copy of this re-
port and Of the testimony on which il
is based be communicated to the Presi-
dent OF the United States"
There was no action taken on the
report.
