Is one scene of that trial that I want to
bring before you. You will remember how,
after repeated efforts to release Jesus, PLATE
finally gave the order for his crucifxion.
And then we read: He took water ETC.
That hand-washing was intended to signify
his release from the responsibility for the
cruel wrong there enacted but he could not
wash away the fact that he was RESPONSE
BILE. We say the Jews crucif1ed Christ, and
they, to this day, say: No, it was Pi:ate
who cruc:fed him. and both are right. With
out the clamor and insistence of the Jews,
PLATE would never have cared how or what
this so-caled king was teaching. 1t mat
tered nothing to him. But with all their
c.amor TO. his blood, they were poweriess
without Pilates consent and authority
Their deed must be done under cover Of
law, must be a legalized crime. All! how
many crimes have been committed under
cover and sanction of law! Many man,
since Christ's crucit1Xion, has crucified his
lord and sold his own soul for political pre-
ferment.
"'The Jews crucified Christi Yes. but
there was not water enough in the great sea
to wash Pilates hands clean from the blood
of Jesus Christ upon them. 1t is great
lesson of moral responsibility"
Mr.. De Kay called the Endeavorers to
great handwashing on the subject of the
liquor traffic. He said: 1--WE have today an
army of 25OO0O liquor dealers, and the best
protected cruiser the government has Is the
licensed saloon. AT least Is pc. cent Of our
crimes are traceable to saloons. A Los An

nation of which he was part
Second he would be in social life. The
first thing he did after he called his disciples
was to take them to a wedding feast, which
meant a whole week of merry making and
social g,adness. Christ was not a crank or
a gaunt ascetic, but a hearty manly man,
with good red blood in his veins. He did
not steel his face to a grim and repellant
solemnity when all other faces in the social
circle g,owed like the dawn with innocent
merrment His was no sour godliness or
Pharisaical austerity.
Third, the Christ of today would have a
part in the industrial life OF the world He
would be workingman with hand or brain

went off like hot cakes, Friday, the day of
distribution being one of unusual warmth.
Then, to cap the climax in their efforts 10
win the visiting delegations for their cause,
a grand reception was arranged by the del
egation at their headquarters in the English
Lutheran church after the convention ses-
sion of Friday evening.
John c. Suhr, the president of the Ala
media county union, acted as presiding offtc-
er, and after making some opening remarks
he introduced in turn DR.. Ollie, DR.. Chap
man and Geo. G. Lowell, all of Oakland,
who entertained the large crowd In a very
pleasing manner by their bright sayings and
mirth- provoking remarks. There was a
vocal duet by Miss Pierce of Oakland and
d. Buck of San Leandro. and also one num-
ber of congregational singing. Refresh

which had been supplied in plenty, were
then served, and at a late hour the audience

AND THE PRESIDENT
DELEGATE TO NASHVILLE
LEONARD MERRILL, STATE PRES

THE ASSIGNMENTS FOR TODAY
Three Days and Nights of Profitable
Work Brings the Convention of
Endeavorers to a Close

The next Christian Endeavor convention
will be held in Oakland, under the auspices
of the Alameda county union. The whole
convention seemed imbued with the Oak
land idea, and she secured the promise Of
the convention of 1899 without a dissenting
voice. The crowded house at last nights
session was but a repetition of previous
meetings. The afternoon session, although
devoted mostly to business, had an attend
ance that filled every seat in the spacious
church. The attendance all through the
day showed large percent of visitors from
nearby cities.
Reports of the committees showed the
work of the past years officers to have been
most satisfactory in every respect, and the
election of the coming years officers meets
with the approval of the entire convention.
Rev. Wayland Hoyt made few remarks
concerning the coming national convention
at Nashville, Tenn, and motion was made
by w. G. Alexander of San Jose to send
present President Merrill as delegate from
California, which it was decided to do. The
registration showed 2219 Endeavorers at
least to have been in the city during the
convention. Subscriptions to the amount of
1892 were made by state unions.

THE LAST SESSION
Special Musical Program and Address
by Rev. Ollie

Last nights session was especially en-
joyable to the large audience a program of
music being a pleasing feature. The over

lowed by Gloria in EXcesis," from Farm
er's mass, by the chorus of forty voices.
transient and Eternal" by the orchestra,
was followed by devotional exercises led
by Leonard Merrill and Rev. Lewis. A
baritone solo, "Galilee," was sung by H. s.
Williams and was heartily applauded.
"Know the Truth" discourse by Rev.
W. G. White of Cotton, was full of earnest
ness, and deep sincerity of purpose was
evident in his eXpounding of the different
ways of learning Gods truth.
A collection was taken up, the various
unions throughout the state contributing
$.92 to the general fund.
Resolutions
L. T. Hatfield. chairman of the committee
on resolutions presented resolutions
couched in strong language, against the
liquor traffic and those who engage in it,
the final paragraph being as follows:
Resolved, That we approve of the plan
and effort Of the Anti-Saloon league to unite
all friends of temperance in one common
effort against the open saloon, and we here

and enthusiastic support. We accept the

ganization and will elect representatives
to the national convention to meet in Cleve-
land, Ohio, in December of this year.
The cigarette habit was taken in hand as
follows:
Whereas, The members Of this convention
are painfully aware of the evil results at
tending the habit of cigarette smoking or,
the young men of our commonwealth; and,
Whereas, 1t has developed in the late en-
aminations of United States volunteers that
nine out of every ten applicants who smoked
cigarettes were refused; and,
Whereas, At a recent session of the state
legislature a bill prohibiting the sale of
cigarettes was passed by both branches of
the legislature, but was vetoed by the pres
ent governor; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That we urge upon all members
of the c. e. throughout the state of Califor-
MIA to use their utmost endeavor to have
such bill presented to the state legislature
and to make every effort to have such bill
become a law.
Resolutions of loyalty to the country, the
president, cabinet and congress were
passed.; also resolutions of gratitude to
Golden Gate and Alameda unions for work
among the soldiers of thanks for the city's
hospitality and to the citizens for courtesy
on every occasion; to those who opened
their homes for entertainment; to the
churches and to local Endeavor unions for
their tireless efforts and service; to the

hotels for reduced rates, etc; to the press

same right. Do with others as ye would
that others should do unto YOU And in that
golden rule lies the remedy alike for the rule
of violence and the rule of gold in our in
dustral life.
Fourth, the Christ of today, if the Master
were here again among men, would be a
member of the church and have part in its
organized life, and this in spite of the
chu-chs human imperfections. The church
he belonged to was not a perfect church.
Its leaders were mostly hypocrites. But he
worshiped IN synagogue and temple al, his
life. He was identified with the religious
organization Of his time, because he saw
behind its imperfections a divine institu-
ton.
Fifth, the Christ of today would be loyal
to the work of God. He gave testimony to
the divine origin and authenticitN Of the
whole Old Testament scriptures. When any
body comes to me with the assaults Of the
so-called higher critics l refer them to the
highest critic, Jesus Christ. If he had held
with the critics that Deuteronomy was the
work of some priestly forger of about the
time of the captivity, do you think he would
have drawn from 1t the three texts with
which he put the tempter to flight?
"Sixth, the Christ of today stands uncom-
promisingly for righte He did be-
fore. No wonder he had not where to lay
his head If he had been like good many
of our modern preachers, whose only bust
ness is to toss caramels down the throats
of fashionable Sunday club, he might have
had a downy couch in the palace Of GAIA
phas, and on that awful Friday, instead of
leaving a trail of blood along the Via
Dolorosa, he might have been out driving
in chariot with Plates wife.

cry Of the world ringing in his ears, with

themselves in the matter of assisting In the
work of doing something in the way of fur

that point, said: You can't mention
point on the globe where missionary work

who was the forerunner and unlocked the
doors of pagan lands to the Christian re-
ligion. God writes on seamens hearts, and
that makes missionaries of them.''
The work is full of "reminiscences" and
Mrs. w. w. Young of San Diego related
some of them.
