methodist ministers Meeting.

AT the Methodist preachers meeting Mon
day morning the following resolutions were
adopted. The secretary was instructed to
send them to the daily press OF the city with
request for publication:
Resolved, That the issue of the beer circular
from the State Department at Washington, IN the
interests and for the extension OF the beer trade
in South American countries, is disgrace to the
American government and Christianity.
Resolved, That the refusal Of the United States
Senate at it's recent session to ratify the Brus-
sells treaty for the suppression of the slave trade
and the liquor trade in Africa, which treaty had
been ratified by seventeen nations. Is an insult to
the Christian sentiment of the American people,
who believe that ''the first concern OF good gov
eminent is the virtue and sobriety of the people,"
Resolved, That these acts and other similar
acts protective of the infamous liquor traffic per-
formed by the United States officials forfeit the
respect OF all good citizens and invite the Judg.
ment of just God.
