the genius and spirit of the age. It is
desired only for the glory of God and
the advancement of His cause among
us.
Wherefore, in behalf of the great
body of our laity, comprising so large
proportion of our beloved Methodist
Episcopal church, we respectfully bur
earnestly appeal TO you, dear brethren,
for your generous and hearty personal
support Is it too much to ask you to
both eak and vote for it in your con-
ference?'
The Advocate" will also contain a
large number of opinions from Bish-
ops, ministers and laymen in favor of
equal lay representation. The Bishops
quoted say:
Bishop Bowman: Il believe, upon
the whole that it would be best for the
laymen to be in the General Confer
ence in equal numbers With the clergy.
This would bring the ministry and the
people a little closer together, and it
would lead the laity to take more in
terest in the general affairs of the
church, land to study the polity of the
church more fully and carefully than
they now do
Bishop Morrill,: Ever since lay rep
resentation has been in the General
Conference it has been my firm per-
suasion that satisfaction would not be
secured till lay delegates equal in num-
bers the ministerial delegates. l am
in favor of a fixed and definite ar
rangement to this end"
Bishop Foss: In a general way the
Il ncir eYT ~ Iof4 co,
alton with the clergy in General Con-
ference is, in itself, a very proper one,
and such equal representation should
be granted, as it will ultimately be-
believe"
Bishop Hurst: "The impression ex-
listing in some directions that the par
ticipation of our laymen in the legis-
lative and other councils of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church is not desired by
the clergy, is erroneous. / fully share
in the wish that our General Confer
ence shall consist of equal lay and
clerical delegates, for 1 believe it would
be benefit to our entire church,
Bishop Walden: When the preach
ers are satisfied that the highest inter-
ests of the church will be promoted and
conserved by equal representation they
will make the necessary change as
readily as they granted the first and
fundamental concession a quarter Of
a century ago"
Bishop Ninde: II believe strongly
in equal lay representation in the Cen
eral Conference
Bishop Vincent: when the laity OF
the church, after thorough consider
alton of the subject asks its full share
in responsibility and service, the minis
try should grant the request"
Bishop Fowler: '' If laymen want
equal representation they should have
it. One body with equal members
would neutralize the tendency to awak-
Ell antagonism''
Bishop Goodsell: 81 am in favor of
equal representation in the General
Conference of laymen. When lay and
clerical representation are equaliZed
we might thus hope for the continued
return to the General Conference of ex-
perie1ced and eminent laymen."
Bishop Mallalieu: Il believe in equal
numerical lay and clerical representa-
ton in the General Conference, and,
hence, favor any step toward it,
Bishop Cranston: II perceive. both
the equity and expediency of equal
ministerial and lay representation in
the General Conference"

1t happened one year nevertheless
that he forgot to perform this task at
the proper time, and friend who hap
pened in at his Office on the morning of
Feb. 23 was surprised at finding him
surrounded by his usual hopeless litter
of letters and papers.
"How does this happen, Mr.. --?"
he asked.
Forgot it," shortly answered the
editor.
"Well, you're going to clean things
up today, aren't your"
"No, sir" was the reply. "That job
goes over, under the rules, for another

States and Spain in the waters Of the
new world there should have been left
battered and stranded upon the Cuban
coast great war vessel named in honor
of the discoverer whom Ferdinand and
Isabella sent out to ind that very island
and this huge destined hemisphere. And

Schley believes it is, to save the Cristo-
