THE CAUSE OF
UNITARIANISM
Presented In Sa-
lem in a Jubilee Service.
ny Dr. 7. L. Elliot OF Pos land Han Of Fame
shows q Remarkable Properties of
THIS Denomination.

DR.. T. L. Elliot, one Of the most emf.
nent Unitarian preachers on the Pacific
coast. occnpied Unity church Sunday
morning and had quite 3 number oI
prominent people among bis auditors,
Gov. and Mrs. Geer, STATE supt. and

Mr.. John Hughes. Homer B. Holland,
Justice and Mrs. O'Donald.
The discourse was jubilee sermon on
the fftieth anniversary Of the Unitarian
church on the Pacific coast. The cause
Of this denomination like others had
languished during the period Of fnan.
cial depression, bat had been reviving
The past few years.
DIR. Elliot is pleasant speaker, and
bis remarks were somewhat reminiscent.
At the age OF nineteen in 1880 he be-
became a convert of Thomas Starr
Kings, the eloquent founder Of uni
tarianism in San Francisco. When il
became a possibility that the Pacific
coast might ally its fortunes with the
seeding south. King threw himself
with all his abilities into the struggle on
the side Of Union.
He paid an eloquent tribute TO the
founder OF the cause on the coast. DR..
Bellows Of New York and Rev. Horatio
stebbins who served for 35 years, and
was one OF the founders OF the two great
Universities Of California, also came in
for generous appreciation. Twenty or
more churches had been formed up and
down the coast. They were all Cath
Ollie and Universal in their influences.
The small member Of churches OF the
Unitarian faith was due TO the defects
Of its merits.
IL was not an organization for the
illogical conquest and propaganda, but

widest sense in development and freedom
Of thought. His definition of religious
progress was pregnant with philosophic
truth and wac found not in inovations
but sin the deep divinity Of common
sense"
The influence Of Unitarianism in the
life of the nation, the quality Of it's
life, made up an hundred fold .or the
quantity OF some others. The value OF
the work Of the liberal Christian church
es OF our country was reflected in char
acter not IN members. Unitar-
ians demonstrated their religion by man
ilesting the presence Of God shining
in their hearts and souls for the good
Of their fellowman.
The University OF New York, endowed
by Presbwterians, had a Hall Of Fame
where were TO be inscribed the names
Of the greatest Americans. Twenty
nine names had been chosen by consent
Of the jury of one hundred, at least
