THE Maine Methodist Conference passed
resolutions last Monday condemning the
Maine Wesleyan Seminary and Female Col
lege, at Kent's HILL for the election of Hon.
Frank Jones of Portsmouth, N. H., as a
trustee The resolutions, which were stoutly
opposed but finally adopted by large ma
jority, are as follows: Whereas, We have
reliable information that man whose repu-
tation as a brewer has been in the highest
degree inimical to the cause OF temperance
has been elected a trustee of the Maine
Wesleyan Seminary and Female College,
and, Whereas, This action OF the trustees
compromises not only the Seminary, but
also our common Methodism in the relation
to temperance reform, thereby subjecting
us, as Methodists, not only to unfavorable
criticism, but also to painful humiliation
therefore, Resolved, That as a Conference
we express our entire dsapproval of this
action of the trustees and earnestly hope it
may be reconsidered."
