THE faculty which seeded or was
bounced from Lane university this
spring has taken the Enterprise col
lege, and will make Q frst-class
school OF Il. Both Lane university
and Enterprise college will be under
the auspices OF the United Brethren
church, though probably under DIFF
ferent factions. To one OH the out
side this rupture seems 10 be q result
Of the great internal strife In the
United Brethren church over secret
societies. Up to q few years ago the
United Brethren church was very
bitterly opposed 10 secret societies Of
all kinds, and would allow none of
Its members to belong 10 them. A
few years ago a commission was
formed 10 amend the discipline, SO
that members OF the Grand Army and
benevolent orders would not come
under the ban Of the church. The
report was adopted and there has
been division In the church ever
since. The liberal element, which
IL largely In the majority, favor the
revision, while the radicals still
cling to the old church tenets In re-
gard TO secret societies. In some
parts Of the country, notably In
Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana, the
war between the factions has been
brought Into the courts for adjudlca-
ton, and In such cases the church
property has been awarded TO the
strongest party. 1t 10 probable that
the trouble In Lane University has
lite source In this fight Of the two fac
lions. and, very properly, when the
faculty could not agree with those
controlling the school, u withdrew,
aud in Its exercise Of the preroga-
tive Of free American citizens, sets |
up In business elsewhere. We are
assured that both Lane University |
and Enterprise college will be bene-
fitted by this change. We are Ger.
taiuly glad that our live little neigh
bor-Enterprise, IL to be benefited.
