PRESBYTERIAN PASTOR HAS
HIS SAY

The following from the pen of Rev
Robert A. Dawson, d. d., pastor of tht
St. Georges Presbyterian Church, viii
prove of general interest. Mr.. Dawson
has recently returned from ST. Louis
Mo-, where he attended the meeting
of the General Assembly of the Presby.
terian Church, as a delegate from New
Castle Presbytery. Of his trip to his
old home in that city he speaks as fol
lows: after a ride of a Thousand
miles through many Of the most pros
porous States of the Union, we found
ourselves at one end of the Fad S
Bridge. crossing the Mississippi river.
The bridge was built Twenty-six years
ago, and is one of the great engineer
ing feats of our country, costing eleven
million dollars. All trains pass over
the bridge and through a tunnel that
runs under the city and then enters the
Union Station, which is regarded as
one of the finest in the world. After
an absence of twenty years I was i'm
pressed with the great material prog
ress of st. Louis. Solid rocks of mag
nificent houses extending four miles
have been built during these twenty
years. Though the home of my boy
hood days, | could scarcely recognize
the city, great have been the changes in
recent years. The General Assembly
of the Presbyterian Church. was made
up of seven hundred ministers and
elders from every State of our Union.
lt was an imposing body of men. being
men of prominence, from both the min
istry and laity. The questions that
came before the Assembly were at
times very exciting, but good feeling
and cordiality prevailed at all times.
One of the most exciting questions was
that of Revision of the Confession of
Faith. The Assembly appointed
a committee of fifteen to in
quire of the Presbyterians, what action.
if any is desired, and to formulate
from lhese answers some action for the
next Assembly. The only inconven-
ience the Assembly encountered, was
fhe strike prevailing on the trolley
lines. This compelled the members 70
walk long distances, but it gave them
a fine opportunity Of seeing the city.
The delegates from the New Castle
Presbytery were Rev w. IT. Logan of
Wilmington; Mr.. Beck of Smyrna;
Mr. Martin from Cool Spring. and the
writer from st. Georges, Rev Robert
A. Dawson.

The Every Evening criticises un-
favorably the Democratic State Con-
vention of last Tuesday for declaring
in favor of the use of both gold and
silver In 1894 the Democratic State
Convention declared: we hold to the
use of both gold and silver as the
standard money of the country; vet
the Every Evening" cordially en-
dorsed the action of that convention
and heartily supported the Democratic
ticket. What was a good platform in
1894 ought not to be such bad plat
form in 1900.
This year the Democratic party ought
TO have the support Of all the friends
of good government in the State of
Delaware. Our esteemed contemporary
cannot fail to appreciate what mis-
fortune and calamity Republican sue
cess in Delaware this year would be.
The only way to defeat the Union Re-
publican party is by the election of the
Democratic ticket.
The Every Evening is the only daily
newspaper in the State, published in
the English language, which is not
either Republican or Union Republican
What an opportunity it has to serve
the State by aiding in the election of
the Democratic ticket!
