The General Convention at Meriden

Rev. DIR. Capen of Massachusetts was
opposed to bottling up discussion on SO
important theme as this. Discussion
should not be cut off or unduly limited.
The creed is the foundation of our in
situations. but in it's present form it
would not be tol erated in any reputable
institution of learning on account of its
utilitarian philosophy.
Rev. j. M. Pullman, DID,, of Massa-
chusetts spoke as a parish minister who
could not use the Winchester PROBES.
sion of Faith with converts from Cal
vinism who find more Calvinistic fatal
ism in our Profession than in the creeds
from which they came out. Let US put
away such ~materialistic philosophy as
the creed contains. He would vote for
the substitute proposed by the Commit
tee
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1895-11-02

that a committee of three be appointed
by the chair to consider the possibility
of closer connection between the Uni
versalist Publishing House and this
Convention. To this motion DIR. Adams
spoke of the growing sentiment in our
church that the people are not in sym
pathy with the Publishing House. Many
feel it to be distant, remote. out of touch
with the throbbing life of our people.
Rev. DR.. Nash spoke to the motion. A
wide gulf exists between the people of
our churches and the corporation of the
House. There is really an organic dis.
lance between the House and the PEG.

ment of the House or the kind of publ.

S. H. Dudley. of Massachusetts, wished
to have creed broad enough TO repre-
sent the advancing position of our pro
gressive church.
Rev. DIR. Cushman, of Rhode Island,
believed the time had come for a change
of creed. But why necessarily three
articles? One may be enough. We do
not need to specify. He liked the arti.
Gle proposed by the Committee which
founded the church on belief in the
Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood
of man.
Rev. Mr.. Hooper of Maine found the
doctrine of total depravity in the pro-
posed substitute creed. He did not be-
lieve the church needed new creed.
He called for the experience of our
young men in this matter.
Rev. Mr.. Hall of Maryland, rose to an
swer Rev. Mr.. Hooper's question, What
do the young men of our church believe?
and what has been their experience on
this subiect?" He was one of five or six
who appeared before the committee to
be licensed, objecting to the word ire
store" The committee waived the rule
of the church and licensed them. He
was one of nine applying for ordination.
The committee waived the rule and or
dained them, although all objected to the
doctrine of utilitarianism found in the
creed They were all ordained notwith
standing their objections to the creed.
Rev. DR.. Sawyer, of Massachusetts,
who had been admitted to seat on the
floor of the Convention, was invited to
speak on this question. He did not find
the difficulties that some of the brethren
find in the articles. He was brought up
under this creed and has never found diff
fculty in making converts.
Rev. DR.. Nash. of New York. thought
we should bring the distinctive doctrine
of our Church into prominence in our
creed. He would insert the word "uni-
versal" before Brotherhood of God" and
Brotherhood of man." He would also
amend by substituting oneness" in the
third article for "union." Both these
suggestions were incorporated in the
new creed by the Committee.
Rev. DIR. Cone. of Ohio, signed the
proposed creed as better statement
than the old one. He would be pleased
to add the word Universal as suggested
by DIR. Nash. He is opposed to the i'm
plication of the trinity in the old creed
as well as objections stated by others.
DIR. Capen moved an amendment so as
to make the third article read: 1--WE be-
lieve that salvation, here and hereafter,
consists in spiritual oneness with God,
who. through his spirit. will gather in
Christ the whole family of mankind"
When the vote was taken it stood SO
for the new creed and 10 against it.
More than the necessary two thirds vote
being in favor, the creed was declared
approved. 1t will now go to the next
Convention with the approval of this
one for final action.

it out of order. An appeal being taken
from this decision, the Convention sus-
tanned the Chair. However. in the in
terest of fairness and the largest liberty.
the President had allowed suggestions
to be made from the floor to those OPP
posed to the nominations OF the COM
mittee as to whom they might agree to
vote for.
Mr.. Joy wanted to know il the mover
would be satisfied to stand by the vote
of the Convention on this subject. Sup
pose the Convention voted against the
amendment proposed, would it not by
inference mean that nominations from
the floor were precluded? 1t was the
right of members in this as in all similar
bodies to nominate from the floor when
nominations we're in order, and for his
own part, he would not be satisfied to
cut off this right by such possible vote.
When questioned, the President de-
clared he never had thought of pre-
Guiding such nominations at the proper
time.
Rev. Mr.. Bisbee said that with this
understanding clearly set forth by the
President before the Convention, the
object sought by this amendment had
been accomplished, and he begged leave
to withdraw his amendment And it
was withdrawn.
DIR. Demarest's amendment was then
unanimously adopted. 1t was also
unanimously carried to further amend
the by laws to instruct the Committee
on Nominations to report on the second
instead of the third day of the Conven
ton.
THE REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES.
When the order for the reading Of
the Report of the Board of Trustees was
reached, spirited debate arose as to
whether the Convention should hear the
report as printed and already in the
hands of delegates, or whether a resume
of the report should be presented by the
Secretary, and the time thus saved be
utilized in hearing addresses by mem
bers of the Convention on the subject
matter of the Report. By small ma
iority the regular order was voted and
the Secretary proceeded to read the
Thirtieth Annual Report OF the Board
of Trustees. This Report appears in
full in another place in this issue of The
UNIvERsALIST.
The Report was referred to the Com
mittee on Official Reports.
Frank w. Wise, Treasurer, read his
Report, which was referred to the same

THE PROPOSED PROFESSION OF BELIEF
AS announced. the contemplated
Profession of Belief, awaiting final
action at Chicago in 1897, is as fol-
lows:
1. We believe in the Universal
Fatherhood of God and in the Broth

Example and Saviour.
3. We believe that Salvation, here
and hereafter, consists in spiritual
oneness with God, who will gather

w. C. A. and Pacific Mission.

We note with satisfaction that the
missionary employed by the w. G. A.,
the National Womans Missionary Soci-
ETY. of our Church. through the sugges-
ton of the Board of Trustees, seems to
be fulfilling the expectation of all and is
believed to be fully competent to succeed
in establishing our Faith more firmly and
extensively on the Pacific Coast. The
Convention heartily commends the in
terest and readiness with which the
women of our Church have adopted this
enterprise.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1895-11-02

DIR. Sweetser reviewed the work of the
committee and renewed the arguments
against the word restore" and against
the utilitarian philosophy contained In
the inseparableness of holiness and
happiness" He made mastery argu
ment, as one fully acquainted with the
subject, and possibly converts were
made to his way of thinking.
Rev. DIR. Perrin of Massachusetts was
impatient of this discussion when mat
tiers of more Importance need to be DONE
He moved to limit the time of this dis
cussion to Ills.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1895-11-02

A signal feature of our present Church
activities is our Mission to Japan. No
other single missionary movement of our
Church has commanded so much money.
No other has won such large place in
bravely outlined and begun by DIR. Perrin,
the Mission is nobly carried on by band
of missionaries as conscientious and de-
voted as represents any church in for
eign lands. The Mission is pronounced
success and we are committed to it. We
urge upon the churches, therefore, a
prompt response to the new appeal of
the Trustees, in aid of this enterprise
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1895-11-02

Oar opportunity Is exhaustive because
we are Universalist Christians. Many
come to your missionaries to say they
have been TO Christian churches and
have been told of the trinity. They can
not understand and therefore cannot
believe the doctrine. They are told of
the doctrine of total depravity, but say
they do not believe the doctrine, for
while they know they are bad enough.
they do believe they have been given a
spiritual nature capable of responding
to moral obligation. They are told of
the doctrine of endless punishment.
which they do not believe. 1t is our JOY
to preach the glorious Gospel which it
is our privilege as Universalists to be-
lieve. 1t is great pleasure to see the
light in the young japanese eyes when
we unfold the splendid faith of the Cos
pei as we believe it.
Our literature, made possible largely
by the generous gifts of DIR. Dodge. OF
New Jersey. and others. is scattered in
the japanese language. making converts
to our church.
The speaker recounted the work of
the schools. and the outpost missions in
the large cities. and spoke of the plans
and hopes which will take shape through
our generosity.
Our needs are sympathy and money;
we believe you will give both.

Strange Incident of the Mails.

A lady in Boston wrote some letters
and sealed them, as is her custom, with
a Moorish coin having a tiny hook in
its back. Her correspondents says the
Boston Herald, all knew this peculiar
seal and how highly it is priced, from
it's antiquity and the stylish form it
takes in the wax. Called suddenly
from the room, these letters were soon
after posted by aservant in the nearest
box, and not till then did the owner of
the rare coin miss it from the table.
The room was searched, and finally the
maid dispatched to await the letter
collector on his next round. But he
declared nothing had been seen Of any
such seal, and then the search began
indoors again, but with no better luck.
"A few days after this lady received q
letter from Canada sealed with the Ia
miliar Moorish ieroglyphics. The
mystery was soon explained, for on
opening the envelope it was learned
that this heavy seal had stuck to the
letter sent from Boston, and, though
passing through 50 many hands, had
arrived intact, to the great astonish-
ment Of the recipient. IT j.
