COncOrdia Empire:
Rev. VIM. Bishop, who has been
resident OF Salina for nearly a quar-
ter of a century, lectured in the
Presbyterian church last Sabbath
night on the History of Presby-
teTianism in Kansas"
He defined Presbyterianism as q
form of government, kind Of repre-
sentative democracy, capable of APP
plicatiOn to any land and people
DOctrinally, il was a system OF truth
of which Calvin, Augustine and st.
Paul were distinguished teachers.
Il represented also type Of character
well represented by the phrase
"liberty under law" He traced the
progress OF the three leading denom-
nations in the state. The Baptists
were first i'm the order of time; the
MethOdists second, the Presby-
terians third. All had now nlmer-
Gus churches, and all had institu-
tiOns OF learning. The MethOdists
claim 90, 700 members; the Raptists,
TO- 900 and the Presbyterians 5000.
After prese nting some interesting
statistics, he showed that the work
OF each OF these churches in Kansas
began with q mission among the
Indians. Kansas has been a battle
ground. Here religion has encOun-
tered bitter opposition. One Of the
saddest chapters in this history was
that which recorded the apOstacy Of
several ministers. But on the other
hand, there were cases of rare hero
ism, and more than twenty could be-
named who had exchanged their
tolls and trials here for that region
where
Everlasting spring abides
And never withering flowers"
He closed with high tribute to
the character and work Of Rev.
Timothy Hill who gave fifteen Of
the hest years Of years Of his life to
the work of planting curches in
Kansas.
