"oh. Speed the Day When all Of
Gods People are one."

The spectacle of Roman Catholics,
Baptists and Methodist worshipping in
the same church at different hours in
Long Island City last Sunday, was an
impressive reminder that beneath all
forms of Christian sect and creed are
the fundamental principles of the fa-
therhood of God and the brotherhood
of man. Whatever the pessimists says,
the world is growing better and wiser.
as it grows older. The lesson of toler-
ance and charity in matters of belief
is impressing itself on the minds and
hearts of men. Bigotry has not van
ished, but it is dying out. Such a
proceeding as that in Long Island City
last Sunday would have excited wide
spread condemnation from both Cath
olics and Protestants half century
ago. To-day it commands almost uni
versal appreciation.
There is suggestion in this event
which might be proftably carried out
in hundreds of American towns and
villages. The effort to build and keep
in operation several more or less ex-
pensive church edifces in communities
whose wealth is unequal to the burden
is as common as it is painful. If the
various denominations in such places
would unite in sustaining one COM
modious central edifice to be used by
each at different hours of the day for
worship we should see fewer starved
and debt-laden churches. We should
also see gradual but sure approach
to that practical Christian unity which
has been so long the dream of the no.
blest branch of the Christian Church.

Presidents Message.

1t was statesman-like, a manly
and patriotic production. A careful
study will convince any sane man
that it is harmony with the Democrat
ic principle and is in perfect harmony
with the Democratic platform.
eve denounce the Republican Leg
islatiOn known as the Sherman act of
1890 as a COwardly makeshift ; fraught
with possibilities Of danger in the
future which should make all of it's
supporters, as well as it's author, anx-
ious for its speedy repeal.
eve hold to the use of both gold
and silver as the standard money of
the country, and to the coinage of
both gold and silver without discrim-
mating against either metal or charge
for mintage, but the dollar unit for
the coinage of both metals must be of
equal intrinsic and exchangeable
value, or be adjusted through inter
national agreement or by such safe
guards of Legislation as shall insure
the maintenance of the parity of the
two metals and the equal power Of

BRACKEN ASSOCIATION.
Ninety sixth Annual Session Met
With the MT. Sterling Bap-
fist Church.
Large Delegation and Much
Business Done.

On last Wednesday morning the
Bracken Association of Baptists met
with the Mt. Sterling Baptist church,
and was called to order by Moderator
r. B. Yancey, of Mayslick.
After reading church letters and re-
ceiviug report on enrolment, the fol-
lowing officers were elected for the
year:
r. B. Yancey, of Mayslick, Moder
ator; j. w. Hedden, of Mt. Sterling,
Clerk, and w. H. Fritts, of Carlisle,
Treasurer.
The letters from the various churches
indicated much earnest work and sat
isfactory results. From the beginning
to the close of the Association every
item of business was transacted in
Christian spirit.
State Missions, Home Missions, For
eign Missions, Bracken Missions, Sun
day-schools and Colporteur, Schools,
Colleges, Ministerial Aid Society, Re-
ligious Periodicals, ETC., all had the
very best and most encouraging
reports.
The Introductory sermon was
preached by Rev. j. P. Kincaid, Mis-
sionary sermon by Rev. H. FL. Hibbs.
Rev. r. G. Patrick preached Thurs
day evening, and Rev. M. P. Adams
preached Friday evening. Miss Mary
Hollingsworth, of the Orphans Home,
was present and received a handsome
contribution in cash and pledges.
Revs. Mahan, of the London Baptist
church, and Thrasher, of the
Beattyville Baptist Church, receiv-
ed aid for building Bap-
tist church at each place, r. B.
Yancey, of Mayslick, was appointed
delegate to the Southern Baptist Con-
vention; Rev. w. Jayne alternate.
Board meetings will be held at Car
Isle. The next meeting of this Asso=
citation will be held with the MaysIick
church. Just before the Association
adjourned a telegram was received,
announcing the death of j. A. Chap
pei, of the Carlisle church, who. had
for many years been a member of this
Association. After speeches in which
tender words of love and esteem were
expressed prayer was offered by his
lifelong friend, Rev. Cleon Keyes, and
the following resolutiotion adopted:
RESOLVED, In the death of our
Brother, deacon j. A. Chapel, the
cause of Christ and especially the
church of which he was so long a
faithful and devoted member, has lost
one of its brightest ornaments. By
his exemplary, expansive benevolence
and earnest work for the Master he
illustrated the power of the religion of
Christ to sanctify and save. That we
hereby tender our sincere sympathy to
his bereaved family, and earnestly
pray that the grace of God may both
comfort and sustain them.

A Good Place to Live.

There is not single complaint of
complaint of hard times about Beatty
vile. The smiling of the gold men,
the bowling of the silver men, the rant
ing of the fiat men, the Kansas salt
certificate scheme, the Kentucky
whisky deposit dream, alike are not
thought of in the solitude of the forest
or the silence of the mine. The timber
and coal are turned steadily into bread
by the workmen, into cash by the cap
italis, in spite of the smile, the rant,
the scheme and the dream,-Beatty-
vile Enterprise.

COL. JOHN p. sALYER
Charges that Senator Lindsay Is
Responsible for His Defeat.

COL Salyer has been defeated, we
are sorry to announce, in his race for
Chief Clerk of the Senate. He at
first charged that both the Kentucky
Senator'S had thrown him over, but
in a special dated August II, he is
quoted as saying:
was misinformed as to Senator
Blackburn's position toward my can
didacy for Chief Clerk of the Senate" "
"The Senator sent for me last night,
and said it was Lindsay who
threw me overheard. Senator
Blackburn said he was willing to
divide the pro rata of patronage
allowed him in my favor and do every
thing in his power for me. The Sen
ator was sincere. and 1 am satisfied
he was willing to recognize the un-
washed Democracy of Eastern Ken
tucky."
We are sincerely sorry Col. Salyer
did not succeed in attaining the object
of his desire. He is a splendid work
ing Democrat, who is entitled to the
cordial support of the party.

1t is now claimed that careful poll
of the House, made this week, shows
a majority of 80 in favor of the repeal
of the purchasing clause of the Sher-
man law. The Senate is more doubt
full, and it is much more difficult to
ascertain how Senators whose posi-
tions are not clearly defined will vote,
but strong efforts are now being made
to bring the Democratic Senators
together, and the indications point to
success. A caucus of Democratic
Senators this week appointed COM
mittee of five-Gorman, Ransom,
Gray, Voorhees,, and Blackburn-to
consider and report plan with that
end in view. The Republicans, unin-
te ntionally, of course, added largely
to the probability of united Democrat

The silver men have in caucus deci-
ded to vote for the repeal of the pur-
chasing clause of the Sherman law, if
the bill for its repeal provides for the
free coinage of silver on such ratio
as will provide and maintain the
parity between gold and silver. The
fact that no particular ratio is men,
toned is significant. 1t means that
the caucus of silver Democrats did not
believe it possible to succeed in main
tanning the present ratio of l6 to and
that they are willing to increase the
ratio.

The Senate Committee on Finance
of which Senator Voorhees, is chairman,
held its first meeting yesterday. The
committee did not lack for business,
either, as more than score of finan-
cial bills which have been introduced
in the Senate have been referred to
that committee. A majority of this
committee are bimetalists, but some
of the most prominent of them, includ-
ing the chairman, have declared their
belief in the Viciousness of the Sher-
man law and their willingness to vote
for its unconditional repeal. The
Senate is naturally deliberate in all
its actions, so it will not be surprising
if the House takes up the silver ques-
ton before this committee reports
bill to the Senate. The resolution of
Senator Lodge, of Force Bill fame,
directing the committee to report
bill for the repeal of the Sherman law
and providing that vote should be
taken thereupon on the %, of this
month was only bit of Republican
buncombe, and the adoption of the
resolution would have surprised no
one more than its author.
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1893-08-15

The bitterest pill in the Presidents
message, for the Republicans to swal-
low, was the plain statement that he
expected Congress to obey the will of
the people and proceed to reform the
iniquitous tariff as soon as the finances
have been looked after. Because the
troubles brought upon the country by
Republican Financial Legislation
have so conspicuously forced themsel-
yes to believe that the Mckinley Law
was to be undisturbed by this Con-
gress. They know better now, and
the knowledge doesn't please them.
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1893-08-15

Acting on the maxim quoted in the
Presidents message-"He gives twice
who gives quickly"-the Democrats
in the House, both silver and anti
silver men, are trying to reach an
agreement to take up and decide the
silver question without waiting for
the appointment of committees and
the adoption of rules. 1t will be easy
to take the matter up without an
agreement, only majority vote being
required, but if an agreement can be
reached upon just what is to be voted
upon and how much time is to be
given to discussion much time will be
saved that would necessarily be vast
ed if 40 agreement is made, to say
nothing of the possibility of endless
fillibustering.
