Proposed Changes OF Representation In
the Methodist Church.

Public attention has lately been directed
towards two questions affecting representa-
ton in the Methodist Episcopal Church
These questions involve the eligibility of wo-
men as delegates and the equalization of lay
delegates and will be submitted to vote sepa-
rately to all members of the church of quail
fed age and in good standing, during this
month and November next. If the vote be
favorable the next General Conference, which
will meet May 1, 1892, will take action on
the result of the vote.
The eligibility of women as delegates being
a departure from the conservatism Of the
church, excites the most attention and the
decision will be looked for with great inter-
est.
The question arose in this manner: At
the last General Conference held in New
York in 1883, number of ladies were elected
as lay delegates, and when their credentials
were presented they were refused recognition
by that body. Such far-reaching and vital
point was not allowed to rest there, but was
submitted to the great constituency of the
congregations of the church. This is the
first time the question has been lawfully sub
mitted and in shape that it may be def
nitely determined.
1t is claimed, suthoritatively, that this is a
movement which will eliminate In the ad-
mission of women to the ministry of the
church.
The merits of the proposed change are
matters which each individual will have to
determine for himself, and the result of his
deliberations will no doubt reflect and will
receive careful forethought and investiga-
ton

Two Good Appointments.

The board of Public Works met at Anna
polls on the 9th instant and elected Exon
gresham Frank 7. Shaw, of Carroll county,
Tax Commissioner, in place of Hon. Levin
Woolford, deceased, and Gen. Joseph B.
Seth, of Talbot county. Commander of the
Oyster Navy. Gen. Seth declined the ap-
pointment Subsequently Gen. Seth's friends
urged him to withdraw his declination and
he consented to do so.
Without disparaging the other excellent
gentlemen who were urged by their friends
for the position of Tax Commissioner, it can
truly be said that the appointment of DR..
Shaw is an excellent one. He has had am
pie experience in matters relating to taxa
tion and will, we are confident, carry on the
good work SO well begun by the late la
mented Col. Woolford.

IT'S well that Quay, Dudley, Clarkson
& Co.'S scheme of colonizing enough negroes
in the States of Indiana, West Virginia and
Connecticut to make them certain TO cast
their electoral votes for the Republican NOM
inees in 1892 has been exposed. Of course
the exposure excites no surprise. 1t is in
keeping with other schemes by which the
Republican party has controlled this country
for years, and it is by similar schemes and the
corrupt use of money that it expects to re-
tain its grip upon the House of Representa-
