Extra Session General Conference.

Editor The lines:
The extra session of the General
Conference of the Reformed Metho-
dist Union Episcopal church which
was called to meet in the city of Char
lesion last Tuesday ended it's work
Wednesday Nov 1st Rev. 0. J. Jen-
kins of Rimini, presided.
The religious service was conduct
ed by Revs. R. D. Campbell, of Sum-
ter county, J. G. Cunningham of Clar-
endon county.
After the usual preliminary steps
of the conference were taken, the
Rt. Rev. E. II. Middleton, of Claren-
don county and general secretary of
the denomination stated the object
for the call of the extra session of the
General conference which was to fill
the vacancy which was made in the
Episcopal office of the church by the
demise of the late bishop Rt. Rev.
W. E. johnson last June. The mat
ter was Immediately taken under
consideration by the conference, and
nominations were at once made for
candidates for the position.
Rt. Rev. E. r. Middleton of Clar-
endon county, and Rev. NJ. NJ. Ged-
dis, of Sumter comfy, were put in
nomination, upon which two names
the conference closed nominations.
The election was conducted by the
yeas and nays method, and tellers
were appointed to ascertain the true
and honest counts. After the cleo
ton and counts, it was found that
that the Rt. Rev. E. r. Middleton
had received the majority vote of the
conference and was declared elected
Bishop of the reformed Methodist
Union Episcopal church of South
Carolina and Georgia. The vote was
made unanimous.
The newly elected Bishop was born
in Charleston. He is AZ years Of age,
is medium IN size, and thin IN BODY.
He attended public and private school
in Charleston; studied theology, and
learned the printers trade under Rev.
R. H. Cain. He handles his themes
in the pulpit with much force and
practicability.
The conference proceeded to con-
slider other business. Strong reso]u-
tions were submitted looking to the
protection Of the rights and honor of
the church by closing its doors
against the return and reception OF
members who have unceremoniously
deserted its misistrv, as well as
against other ministers from other
denominations that may be charged
and convicted Of any crime which
the Bishop. elect declared his purpose
to rigidly oppose.
Just before the conference was
ready to adjourn, photograph of the
ministers and delegates, with the
Bishop were taken by Mr.. Arthur L.
McBeth of Charleston. PREACHER.

All through the course of the Phil
ippine muddle President Mckinley
has been careful 10 keep the country
in the dark as much as possible. What
were his instructions to General
Otis? What directions did he give
the Philippine Commission? What
were the concessions asked by Aguin-
aldo before fighting began, and what
terms did our army officers offer?
What is the arrangement with the
Sultan of Sulu? What were the con-
tents of the dispatch sent by Admiral
Dewey last December? All have been
suppressed. Could an Emperor have
kept more from the people than
President Mckinley has done.
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1899-11-08

Now that the rainy season is prac-
tically over, we may expect to hear OF
some great campaigning in the Phil
ippines. The American force has
been greatly increased and more
troops are headed in that direction.
We have always believed that success
would eventually attend the Amer
ican arms, but it would be only, after
an immense cost Of blood and treas
ure. Aguinaldo has made much
better stand than many expected,
and in some instances his campaign
ing has been brilliant, had he at his
command one half the means that
Otis has, it would take an age to con-
quer his forces.
