IAN EXPLANATION"

THE following appears in the last
number of Coward" 1t now appears
that when our Y. P. G. U. contempor-
airy branded the action of the Board
of Trustees of the General Convention
in regard to the salaries of the Japan
Missionaries as unfair, unjust and
dishonorable" it was explosive with
out the dynamite of fact. The sala
ries of the missionaries were not cut;
the Board simply proposed reduc-
ton, and this was not accepted. We
give "Onward's' explanation, but we
notice it does not withdraw the often
sive terms in which it referred to the
proposed action of the Board which
was commented upon sharply in The
UNIvERsALIsT.
"As our editorials a few weeks ago
concerning the japan Mission might
seem to be at variance with the facts in
the case. it is but justice to all con-
cerned to make an up-to-date statement
that we may all of us relate ourselves
properly to the situation.
GAS a matter of fact. the salaries of
the missionaries we're not cut. The
editorials were written upon the infor-
nation that the missionaries had been
asked to accept reduction. That the
salaries were not reduced, however. is
no fault of the General Convention.
That body was bound by contract with
the missionaries. and therefore could
only ask them to accept a reduction.
This the missionaries very properly. as
we think, did not agree to.
"Let it be understood. then, that. none
of the money which our people are
giving in response to the appeals of our
UNCONVENTIONAL papers will be needed to
make good any cuts in the missionaries
salaries, it can all be employed in the
prosecution of our work in the Sunrise
Kingdom"
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1897-08-28
OUR LAWS AND FELLOWSHIP.

The laws of the Universalist Church re-
quire assent to its Profession of Faith
and to the laws governing it's organiza-
ton and fellowship.
Every clergyman, parish or state
convention applying for the fellowship of
this convention (Universalist General
Convention) shall be understood as there
by agreeing to the Profession of Faith
and pledging due observance of all the
laws of the Convention y
l believe that Universalists are thoro
oughly loyal and that those who with
unstinted hand have given the time, tai
ent and money to which we owe all that
we are and to whom the ''sweet reasona-
bieness" of our hope owes it's present and
growing beneficence in the world, have
offered their sacrifices for the truth
which having been proved, is held in the
faith and polity of our denomination.
There is nothing to deplore except that
apology for its laws and belief need be
made to those who have honorably
pledged themselves to observe the fol- mer
and voluntarily confessed the latter
What an abhorrent thing TO use Christian
fellowship for worldly gain or as play
thing to be tossed about and trampled
under foot in secret and then held aloft in
mocking reverence as symbol of honor,
enlightenment and love2
Some objections to the laws of the Uni
versalist Church are for the same reason
that certain citizens object to the laws OF
a we'll regulated commonwealth A con-
fession of belief is denounced not for
philosophical and ethical reason but for
the same reason that country school
teachers oppose examination in higher
branches, too much work to pass and in
ability to teach.
The worst enemy of man is not the ism
of orthodoxy but the sophistry of agnos-
ticism in which it began. 1t deceives the
elect and by it the artful hypocrite serves
his mammon while appearing to serve
our God.
Universalism is constructive; it builds
from the foundation and strives for har
mony of all its parts; it teaches that the
true man is humane enough to profess
Jesus, sensible enough to serve one Mas
ter, and that the righteous man is divine
enough to take up his cross and follow
him. C.

OUR ELEVATION.

Much has been related of ''summer
outings A high altitude is desirabl
along with the outing. Where in all the
country can more healthful region be
found than 1.-THE Land of the Sky;' and
this portion of the Land of the Sky, here
at Dillsboro, is just about the right alti-
tude The railroad here is at least two
thousand feet above sea-level, and the
mountains around are said to be four
thousand feet above sea-level. We are
having very pleasant sojourn here at
''Splings HOTEL kept by Mr.. Jarrett
It is the popular stopping place for trav-
ellers. Today seven states were repre-
sented here; viz Kentucky Illinois,
Tennessee, Virginia, Georgia, Alabama
and North Carolina
Dillsboro is a busy little town. Kaolin
is shipped from here in large quantities.
1t is sent to New York, and makes the
finest china. Corundum is also shipped
by the car load. 1t is sent to Detroit and
other places and is made into emery
wheels There is steam saw-mill here
and mill run by water power, for max
ing locust pins, which are used in fasten-
ing telegraph wires to the poles.
This place is forty nine miles from Ashe
vile, and not very far from Mt. Mitchell
the highest mountain east of the Rockies
We have had the pleasure of meeting
several Universalists here-Mrs. Buffum
among the number She is the very eff
Gent President of the W. C. T. U. of
Dillsboro. We have also met lady from
Mobile, Ala, who says she is a member
of the Episcopal church only because
there is no Universalist church in Mo
bile. We suggested that she join the
Universalist church in Pensacola; and
she said she thought she would. There
are many believers in universal salvation
in all the churches. F. H. Moon.

Prof. Eben H. Chaplin, of Lombard, has
spent six weeks during the summer TAX
ing special work in Chicago University.
Rev. C. A. Bradley, the father of the
Pacific Coast Missionary, breaches regu-
larly every Sunday at Yarmouth and
Brewster, on Cape Cod. He is one of our
oldest and most faithful Universalist
ministers.
Prof. James Peasants, of Vevay, Ind,
has just returned from Germany, where
he has been studying music for the past
ten years. He returns in splendid health
and is receiving a warm home welcome
from his old friends.
The new Professor of Literature in
Lombard University, will be Mr.. Frank
H. Fowler, Phi. D., a Lombard B. S. in
1899, who afterward spent two or three
years at Johns Hopkins and about the
same period at Chicago University where
he received his doctorate degree. He
will be notable addition to our faculty
force says the Lombard Letter.
Mr. Henry Charles Williamson, son of
IeCN- Wli4ldhioOu, Ohi1uilth

the naturalists to the Scottish Fishery
Board. He was distinguished student
in natural science in the University of
ST. Andrews, and gained the Woodall
(Fisheries) Prize for his year-taking up
under this the study of the fisheries at the
st. Andrews Marine Laboratory. Rev.
Henry Williamson, the father of this
young student, was a member in early
life of the Norwich Conn Universal

DIR. Shinn writes in the Banner $50
many friends of the Weirs meeting have
expressed regret at the announcement
that our sixteenth annual, held this year,
is the last at Weirs; will say this for
their encouragement: 1t is possible that
TIE seventeenth annual will be held next
August, but in another place. If the
National Summer meeting is con-

gathering. 1t will be held in different
parts of the country, somewhat as con-

the annual will be held. And sometime
in the future it may come back to the
Weirs. That will depend. ~

religious thought aud aspect of the times

will be injurious if INDUCED in, believe it
my duty to make an exposition of the
same.
The organization is quite complete and
the rules and cbservances have been re-
duced to writing. Having joined this order,
but seeing the error of my ways, have
renowned all connection with it. I'm
fortunately have lost my book of rules,
and hence cannot give the principles in
the order laid down, but the following
are some of them:
l. We obligate ourselves to be faithful
to the principles of Christianity as taught
by the Universalist Church, giving chill
dren thorough instructions in our doc
trines, and encouraging them to become
thorough, upright and devout men and
women.
2. We will faithfully stand by each
other in our Christian work, discounten-
ancing everything which tends to a sep
aration. We will not criticise each others
work or methods save face to face, and
only then in Christian love.
3. Should any member of this order be
in search of work we will fully and
promptly render such assistance as shall
be in our power.
We agree to abstain from interfering in
every particular with brothers. work,
and among these things we specify, writ
ing letters into his parish without con-
sulting Him. listening to stories without
referring the same to him; failing to re-
buke those who would detract from him.
4. Should any person having charge of
the arrangements of the affairs of state
as a superintendent or otherwise, either
directly or indirectly injure brother, or
interfere in any manner with his work,
we will openly rebuke the same and call
the attention of the proper authorities to
his conduct.
5. Should Brother prove refractory
after having been admonished according
to Scripture, then in kindness and sor-
row of heart we will withdraw fellow
ship until such period as the brother may
come to his senses.
6. We will work in harmony with the
committee of Fellowship and Discipline;
and also for church extension, and for the
preservation of church property and
church rights.
These are some of the obroxious prin-
ciples of the Petrine Fathers. And if
deemed advisable / will at some future
time still further expose this secret
order. MEMO.
rOf course the above will be understood
by the intelligent reader. 1t must be
very 'dangerous" organization that en-
bodies such rules. -EDIToRl.

A PROGRESSIVE REVELATION

The question is often discussed
whether the Gospel is afull and COM
plete revelation, or whether it con-
tains a sufficient amount of truth for
the needs of the spiritual nature as it
may be developed in future ages.
We are accustomed to reply that it is
a full and final revelation and pre-
cludes the necessity of other revela-
tions. Yet this statement is indefi-
mite and needs explanation in order
to be fully understood.
Revealed truth may be considered
under two aspects, objective and SUBJ
jective. God has given to the world
through his son Jesus an amount of
spiritual truth which is contained in
the New Testament. This truth is
all objective to man until he appre-
bends and receives it. 1t then be-
comes subjective, or as much of it as
he receives into his mind and digests.
But the process of learning it is
gradual. He does not and can not
gain it all at once. He learns it
slowly, often times intermixed with
error. In this case he is obliged to
unlearn a portion and separate the
truth and the error until finally he
receives it comparatively pure into
his mind. And the amount of truth
learned depends upon the state of
his mind, his passions, tendencies,
temperament, prejudices, and other
retarding or accelerating agen.
cies. And much, too, is due to
the earnestness and zeal with which
we pursue our Investigations. The
treasures of divine truth will be
opened to us in proportion as we
show our appreciation of their value
and our desire for them by deter
mined and persistent effort.
And herein consists the progressive
nature of revelation. 1t is not pro-
gressive in the sense that God has
not in the gospel economy given
enough to satisfy mans higher needs,
and accordingly pours out fresh
supplies from time to time, but in a
subjective sense. Jesus is the full
ness of the Fathers glory, the Author
and Finisher of our faith. He has
revealed enough and more than
enough. The gospel is inexhaustible
in the amount of truth that it con-
tains. We can not drain its wells of
salvation dry. The soul that drinks
thereof shall never thirst All man
made systems are fountains with
only limited supply of water while
the gospel is a we'll of water in the
soul springing up into everlasting

The Register says loaning money
is less profitable now than ever be-
fore, because interest is lower. The
fact is that per cent. interest now
has a purchasing power equal to
10 per cent. had when money was
plenty, prices high and times good,
and the per cent. now is harder to
pay than was the IL per cent, then.
If this kind of a system is less profit
able to money loaners, why is it that
they all favor it and prejure their
honor in trying to sustain it? The
fact of the matter is, money carried
uselessly in the pocket is earning
more than it would thirty years ago
loaned out at 10 per cent. interest,
for it is all the time increasing in
value while all other property is grow
ing cheaper. Property than can be
bought today for $1,000 will be pur-
chasable next year for $500, SO the
$1,000 carried in tile pocket one year
has increased in value 5000, which is
equivalent to 20 per cent. interest.
II loaned at 6 per cent, the increase
in value is just the same, SO it is real
~ earning it's owner 26 per cent. in
terest. Is it any wonder people do
not care to invest money in property
or business enterprises?-Fa
