Massachusetts, Democrats wont free
raw material. Mr., Mills is quoted as
saying: "Gov. Russell gave his COM
plete endorsement to the demand of
Massachusetts for free raw material,
and declared the willingness of the
National Democratic party to adopt
this policy" Now Mr.. Crisp and
Springer are proposing to give Gov.
RusselPs people the free raw materi-
al they want and settle Massachu-
sets permanently in the Democratic
column, and still Gov. Russell is not
happy.S He, wants it through the
Mills machine. Mr.iMills. canvass ed
with Gov, Russell and no doubt join

not Mills tariff policy that gave him

Let our stewards be ready tor the
second quarterly meeting. Make
your best efforts. Now j. the time.
Our pastors with few exceptions have
received but little on their
salaries up to date. Their ex
penses through the winter are
heavy. Their embarrassment will
be great unless the stewards act
promptly and faithfully. Brethren,
please see that your pastors and their
families have the support to which
they are entitled under the gospel.
Given so hath the Lord ordained that
they which preach the gospel should
live of the gospel Present the
claims of the church for the support
Of the ministry to all the members
and>urge them TO make liberal offer
ings now, so as to meet the present
emergencies of the pastors. Our
people will meet these claims when
they are rightly presented. Much
depends on the wisdom, fidelity and
activity of our stewards.
Let our pastors put forth earnest
and vigorous efforts to raise the col.
lections ordered by the annual con
ference. These collections are i'm
portant. Now is the time to raise
them. Brethren, we must not rest
until these sacred claims of the
church shall have been paid IN full,
Present them to every member o.
the church. Turn on the light
These claims are not a burden to
Christian people when they rightly
understand them. Good people give
10 these sacred claims literally and
cheerfully. God loves the Cheerful
giver. HERsCHEL = REAMs.

Few Poll Taxes Paid.

Have the voters forgotten that, to
vote in the city election on the 10Th
inst, ii is necessary to pay their poll
tax for the year 1891? There is a
new feature in the city elections,
and, Notwithstanding there are
voters registered, it is probable that
there will not be 800 votes cast in the
election. Up to last Saturday there
had been only about fifty polls paid,
and nearly One-half of these were in
one ward, the Tenth. In the other
nine wards of the city there were
not an average of tour qualified
voters, These Tenth ward people
have never had the privilege of
voting in municipal election, and
they appreciate it more than their
neighbors to whom this is not a new
thing.

FOR THE CHURCH TO DECIDE.

Yesterday afternoon the New York
Presbytery concluded its trial of Profess
sor Briggs by q series of votes in which
varying majorities were cast against sus-
tanning each of. the six charges brought
against him. The specific wording
of the charges, and the exact
voting thereon will be found in another
column of THE DISPATCH this morning.
Long drawn out though it has been, the
controversy is not yet decided, for the case
is to be appealed to the General Assembly,
which meets early in tie spring in the Ma
tional capital
1t would be sort of contempt of court
for the lay mind to venture on a decision
of questions over the intricacy of which
learned theologians disagree. Individuals
in and out of the Presbyterian Church
have their own opinions on the matter or
the case would not have excited an in
terest so widespread, but those opinions
are not conclusive, or Professor Briggs
would never have been brought to trial or
accused of heresy for the expression of
his beliefs.
Points at issue are matters Of dogma, in
which the Professor is a. variance with
other members of the Presbyterian
Church. At this stage of the proceedings
the church upholds the Professor, but it
will be some months before the final set
tlement is made. Only the highest prop
erly constituted authority of the church
elected for such purposes by the church
can give an indisputable, and to that
church an infallible answer to the ques-
tions raised. And that authority is the
General Assembly.

SINGLE TAX PECULIARITIEs.

Some very singular ideas are enter
tanned among our friends who are pushing
the single tax cult Mr.. Henry Georges
recent savage attack on Mr.. Herbert
Spencer, for change by the latter Of
some ideas expressed in an early work
supposed to be favorable to the single tax
theory, is curious illustration. Both in
Mr.. Georges attack on Mr.. Spencer, and
in the newspaper comments on Mr..
Georges deliVerance, there is a decided
intimation that fiscal policies can be set
tied by scolding, and that conclusions on
questions of taxation are matter of per-
sonal whim. The fact that both Mr..
Georges theory and Mr. Spencer's change
of base can only be judged by the
arguments in favor Of each has so far
been entirely lost sight of.
But that is not so unique as the boom
which Hyattsville, Md, is getting out of
its alleged adoption of the single-tax
theory. The latest phase of this expert
ment is the announcement that Mr.. Pow
derly has purchased tract of land, which
is to be used as the location for co-opera-
tive factories. THE DISPATCH has
already pointed out that the Hyattsville
single tax, being at the rate of % cents on
the hundred dollars of valuation, a vast ma
jority of real estate owners in the coun-'
try would be glad to have their property
taken away from them by that class of
taxation.
This may have arelation with the factory
scheme. Factories are generally located
at points where materials for the industry
proposed and the markets for its products
are most accessible. As Hyattsville has
never before been known to have such ad-
vantages, it is natural to infer that the
new enterprise is attracted by the very
small size of the single tax. Such loca-
ton does seem to be preferable in that
respect to localities where the evils of
land monopoly are cherished by taxes on
land from three to ten times as great as
the renowned Hyattsville single tax

WHERE is THE MAN?

The standard which Mr. Cleveland set
for the occupant Of the next New York
Senatorship in his recent interview is a
good one in the abstract Other States
than New York might proftably make it
a rule to select ga Senator who can not
only defend the principles of our party,
but who can originate and promote poll
cies that may be presented for considera-
ton in the Senate" and to require as a
standard that he 'should be man not
only experienced in public affairs, but who
has clear conception of the vital issues
with which he must deal during the next
few years"
But while the standard is undeniably
right in the abstract, very serious practi-
cal difficulty presents itself in the ques-
ton where the New York Democracy can
find such man. When we tell over the
roll of leading or even second rank Demo-
Gratis who Join ora5orical ability to breadth
of policy and experience, the fact dawns
upon the mind that they are conspicuous
by their absence. The Hon. W. c.
Whitney is known to have an aptness for
solving the practical problems of states
manship by means of diamond-bac& ter
rapin and champagne, and for manipu-
lat1ng conventions already favorable to
bis cause from hotel parlors; but
these qualities do not insure original
policies, or the ability ''the applause of
listening Senates to command" Mr..
Daniel Lamont's facile talents in the ante
room of an executive, OF his aptness in
combining street railways after getting
the franchises he wants, are also un-
questioned; but they do not fill the bill
much better than Mr.. Murphy's achieve
ments in the same line, though more
limited. An approach to genius in strik-
ing out original statesmen is found in the
Hon. Tim Campbell's famous apothegm
on "What is the Constitution Among
friends?" But even Mr.. CampbelI's
most shining qualities fail to fit the meas
ure set by Mr. Cleveland.
Indeed, if New York be surveyed from
Black Rock to Sag Harbor, the utter in
ability of finding Senatorial candidate
that comes up to Mr.. Cleveland's measure
oppresses the mind, unless indeed the
heather should be made to rage by going
over to the Mugwumps and selecting Carl
SchurZ as the only eligible man left

TOPICAL DINNERS SUGGESTED

As Means of Educating the People on
University Extension Lines.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. 30.-At the last
session of the University Extension Con-
ference the principal speaker was Prof.
Richard G. Moulton, of the University OF
Chicago. He advised against TOO much con-
Germ about details, and advocated the grasp
ing of the "idea which is the inspiring soul
OF the movement" He said that the work
of the local center, as compared with the
governing body, is not of a nature like that
or gas company. where a central affair sup
plies the material on the turn of a tap.
I'm that case," said he, 1--WE assume a de-
mand; but i'll our work we must stimulate
the demand for education. Create q desire
to read and make circumstances favorable
to keeping it up. Bring the subjects up in
your family conversations, and why not
have social leaders come to your assistance?
Why could not the gentlemen give French
revolution dinner, or why not have one on
astronomy? Make the atmosphere favor
able for higher education. Get the great
body of people talking about university ex-
tension, and thus prepare for it." The Con-
ference adjourned to meet next year at the
call of the Executive Committee.
