THE CREED AND REPRESENTA-
TON AMENDMENTS.

The amendments to the constitu-
ton of the General Convention, in
volving the mandatory relation of the
Winchester Profession, adopted at
the Chicago convention, now go over
to the next biennial session to be
held in Boston in 1899, for final rati-
fication or rejection. 1t is but fair to
say in these columns where the in
itial Boston Plan has been oppos ed
that, as amended in convention, it
meets the approval of large ma
jority of our clergy and laity who
welcome it as the most practical
method of ending the discussion
which has afflicted our church for
nearly twenty years. But it must not
be hastily concluded that the plan
will carry on its final passage,
The ignoble fate of the once adopt
ed Meriden articles suggests due eau
ton in the way of prophecy. Great
changes are possible in two years. We
do not now anticipate any change that
will effect the final ratification of the
amendment. and as we survey the
situation at present, would regard
final defeat as unfortunate, but it will
not be wise for any one to express
supreme confidence in victory until
the change is ratified by the neces.
sary two-thirds at Boston in 1885,
The amendment adopted for an
increase in the representation of the
convention is also passed on to the
session of 1899 for ratification. This
amendment is not as favorably le-
garded as the action on the creed. 1t
requires careful consideration and
more attention than was possible to
give in the body that has just voted
its approval.
During the next two years this
amendment will be amply discussed
and considered, and when the Bos-
ton Convention of '99 assemblies, it

PRESIDENT HUTCHINSON.

AT Meriden in 1895, the Chicago
delegation presented through the
Committee on Nominations the name
of Charles L. Hutchinson, of this city
as the president of the convention.
Mr.. Hutchinson was unanimously
elected and presided for the first time
during the session of the convention
last week. Rarely has the conven-
ton had such capable, dignified
and pleasing presiding officer. In
voice, manner, and presence Mr..
Hutchinson was the ideal officer;
while in general grasp of the situa-
ton on the floor, and sound parlia-
mentary decisions in critical mo-
ments, he has never been excelled.
The success of the Chicago Con-
vention is largely due to the prompt
and decisive manner in which the
president handled the gavel. There
was no timid yielding to the confu-
sion on the floor, and no trained
bishop could have held the conven-
ton more effectively to its work. One
innovation attended the work of
President Hutchinson in the chair
which we might hope would become
permanent.
The titles of the brethren were for
the time remanded to the rear. They
were not introduced as Doctors,
Presidents or Professors; they were
simply Brother" And the all suffi-
Gent word never sounded more
sweetly than when pronounced by the
lips of Bro. Hutchinson. The long
continued applause which greeted
the announcement of his reelection
by unanimous vote testified to the
pride and satisfaction of the men,
bers in their presiding officer. The
presidents closing address, which we
print in full, was worthy of the best
hours of the convention, and fitly
closed a remarkable series of meet.

are promised an abstract of Mr..
Laing's for publication hereafter.
Addresses in the interest of our
Mission in Japan followed, from DIR.
Rugg of Rhode Island and DIR.
Perrin of Massachusetts,. Both were
vigorous and stirring appeals for the
support of the Mission. Then came
the surprise of the evening-the ap-
pearance on the platform of Rev.
Hizedo Yoshimurs, of Japan, clad in
native costume. He was introduced
by DR.. Perrin as his former interpre-
ter and an ordained minister of our
Japan church.
Mr.. Yoshimura spoke briefly in
English and afterwards more at
length in japanese. His appeal, as
interpreted by DR.. Perrin, was in be-
half of the Universalist Girls School
in japan and the established Mission.
Mr.. Yoshimura is evidently an inter-
esting and eloquent speaker in his
own language. His voice is pleasing
and his every movementgraceful and
expressive. He must be very USE
full member of our native Japanese
staff. He will remain in this country
for several months.
DIR. Perrin conducted a platform
appeal for the Mission when this dra-
matte episode of the evening was
ended. The response was contri-
button of over 1888 in behalf of the
mission. This is a good starter for
the new campaign for Japan which
the trustees announce will soon begin
again in the churches.

PUBLISHING HOUSE AND CON-
VENTION.

The following Report to the Gen
eral Convention, adopted and placed
on file, is self-explanatory:
To the UniUersalist General Con.
Uention:
At the session of the Universalist
General Convention in Meriden, Conn,
in 1895, it was voted that committee
of five persons be appointed by the
President to consider what steps can be
taken to effect closer organic connec-
ton between the General Convention
and the Universalist Publishing House."
The President appointed the committee
as follows: Rev. III. /. Cushman, d. D.,
Vice-President of the Rhode Island
Convention; Rev. S. II. McCollester. d.
d., President of the New Hampshire
Conven ton; Mr.. j. L. Sweet, President
OF the Massachusetts Convention; @. H.
Russell, Esq. Of Brooklyn, N. Y, and
Rev. w. s. Perkins, ID. D., President of
the Connecticut Convention.
From conference and correspondence
with the other members OF the COM
mittee, beg to report:
l. That the Constitution of the Uni
versalist Publishing House is such, as
to the appointment of Trustees to fill
vacancies, that no officer of the General
Convention as such can be appointed or
elected as Trustee of the House.
2. Moreover, il "a closer organic con-
nection" between the General Conven-
ton and the Publishing House could be
effected, it would not be desirable since
the Publishing House already holds all
it's property and conducts all its bust
ness for the benefit of the Universalist
Church. Respectfully submitted.

CHICAGO, ST. PAUL's CHURCH, 1897

The biennial session of the Cen
eral Convention, held in st. PauPs
church in this city beginning Tues
day, Oct. 10, at 2:3O P. M, and ending
Friday, Oct. %, at noon, was by COM
mon consent the most interesting
and successful convention our church
has held in recent years. AS dele
gate body it was the largest in the
history of the church since the organ
ization in 1870, a period of twenty
seven years. 124 representatives
from state conventions participated
in it's councils and over 100 ministers
of the fellowship were present dur
ing the several sessions. California,
Texas and Japan and the Province of
Ontario sent representatives and the
East, West and Interior were we'll
represented.

The Occasional Sermon by DR..
Arthur G.. Rogers, of Pennsylvania,
on THE Needed Power" has been
already given to our readers. 1t was
a discourse of rare power and spirit
uality, enforcing the lessons OF the
origin al Pente costal season and lead
ing on in thought and appeal to the
blessing we need for our church and
its work. Every accent of the
preacher donated his profound con-
viction that if we we're worthy of the
divine blessing as a church, power
from on high would be given to aid
us in our work. Impressive in delivery
and devoutly Christian in thought and
sentiment, the sermon rose to the full
height of the occasion. 1t was a
grand opening for the convention
that was to witness the incoming of a
new spirit of unity and more conse-
Grated devotion to the work of the
church.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1897-10-30

The several sessions of the Conven-
ton were held in st. Pauls church,
and no attempt was made, as in for
mer years, to hold services in the
other churches of the city. The con,
gregations were uniformly excellent
throughout the week. At the first
session, when the Holy Communion
was observed and the Occasional
Sermon delivered, the church was
crowded to the doors. Over an hour
was required to distribute the en-
blems. This was a service of great

1t was the nearest approach to a
general convention we have ever real
lied. Without access to the official
roll we estimate that about 20 state
conventions were represented by reg.
ularly appointed delegates. The
southern states, with the exception of
Texas. were without representation, to
the great regret of the brethren. The
organization of our church is yet in
its infancy in the South. May the
time soon come when under the mis-
sionarY expansion of the church this
condition will be changed and our
southern brothers and sisters appear.

beauty and significance. The re-
sponsive service of st. Paul's church
was used and the pastors at the table
were, in word and pra Jer, devout and
impressive in their conduct of the
sacred rite.

Thursday morning the debate was
resumed. Great interest was mani
fest in the discussion and the dele
cations were out in full force. twas
agreed that the debate should be
restricted to twelve fve-minute
speeches, six ON each side. As the
debate progressed several amend
ments to the plan were considered
and adopted.
H. B. Metcalf, the first speaker,
said he disliked the plan because it
appeared to him not brave, but
evasive. He had great respect for an
open and direct change in the creed,
but not for a timid and evasive
change. If the plan were adopted he
hoped the reference to "Bible as a
revelation from God" would be made
"the Bible as containing a revelation
from God" and that in the require
ment that the new profession should
be substantially professed," the
word substantially" should be
omitted.
Rev. DIR. T. S. Guthrie, of Indiana,
spoke strongly against the plan. He
attacked the words progressive reve-
lation from God and said it invited
speculation. He stood for the old
creed. II, as was claimed, it was
