REV. DR.. TAYLERS RESOLUTION


p: The Rev. DR.. Tayler of Los Angeles intro
duced. the following resolution in the inter
tion:
Resolved, That this house concurs with
the House Of Bishops on its message No. "a,
asking for the appointment of joint commit
tee On the change of name of the church. and
all memorials and resolutions on the PROPOSED
change Of name be referred to the committee
when appointed
Delegate Lewis Of Pennsylvania said this
question had come before and been discussed
by every convention since that of 1856 in Chi.
cago ana nothing new remained to be said
on ii. The house was prepared to vote or 1t
and II was useless to keep UP the agitation
which was unsettling the church The change
OF name would not be made and the matter
should be put at rest and for all time
instead of beink kept alive as a disturbing
question.
The Rev. DR.. Hodges OF Maryland spoke in
favor of the resolution. Mr.. Packard followed
Lewis. The motion which we are invited to
AFFIRM" he Said, lis a motion, as I understand
from the message that was sent u.s. to ascer-
tain the sentiments OF this church on this sub
5ect Now, sir. in addition to the objections
urged wish to bring this suggestion before
the convention ana tnat Is, that this body of
men here assembled is sent here for the very
purpose of representing the opinion Of the
church Three years hence 1t wifi contain
church. Now how can five Bishops, five pres
byters and five laymen get at the opinion of
the church? ?"
An objection was raised at this juncture
that the speaker was opening up a discussion
a motion to indefinitely postpone Nos. s and
on the calendar and also the resolution Of
fered by DR.. Tayler.
Chairman Lindsay ruled that the house could
discuss the subject. Mr.. Packard continued
and said the third objection he had to the
passage of the resolution that 1t would
bring party feeling into the church. 80
Delegate Morehouse pleaded for the con-
sideration in a dignihed way for three years
more Of the question, which he said ante
dated the Chicago convention, and would in
any event come before the next convention and
continue to come before conventions of the
church and be agitated until the proposed
change of named was adopted.
Judge Stiness followed and spoke in favor of
the resolution. In part he said
why not consider the subject II the
church Is adverse to 1t 1t will do no harm
We at any rate will have dealt fairly with 1t
and shown that we have examined the ques-
ton and not treated it a town meeting sub
ject. Is any one afraid of 1t? This matter
began long ago. The diocese of Rhode Island
changed its name as lcng ago as 1886 It is
not new subject. There have been Diff
ferences about the name. Some wise COM.
mission may hnd a way by which this question
may be settled properly for many years to

in favor of the appointment of such com
mission
WITHDRAWS HIS MOTION.
Delegate Packard said that on reflection 1t
occurred to him that his motion to Indefinite
ly postpone was not a courteous way to treat
q matter coming from the House of Bishops
and he would therefore withdraw 1t and leave
II in shape for the vote to be taken on the
The Rev. DR.. H H Oberle of New jersey
said he thought the best way to settle the qucs-
tion was to refer it to the joint commission
proposed by the Bishops and let that commits
sion report at the next General Convention. He
thought so much due the decent respect
that was coming to the Bishops.
The Rev. DR.. Huntington of New York fol-
lowed, saying: Il am unalterably opposed to a
change of the name Of this church the
present time. believe that if a large states
manlike and sympathetic ecclesiastical policy
be pursued by this church the time will come
perhaps three generations hence when the
church will have earned a new name I do
not desire to see her wear it sir till she earns
it, At the same time, 1 purpose to vote to con-
cur with the House of Bishops, not only from
a sense of courtesy to that house, whose re-
complied with by this house when it can be
done conscientiously and without great objec-
tion, but also out of courtesy to a considerable
number of the clergy in this church.. to the
lesser proportional number of laity in the
church who earnestly desire to see the sub
Ject investigated and exploited.
The last great discussion Of this subject was
in 1877 in the city of Boston. When we meet
again, sir. we will reopen the subject and dis
the same result. A quietus given to the
subject for twenty years at Boston. 1 be-
lieve that another quetus for twenty-five years
will be given it at Boston. At the same time
think fairness and courtesy toward the
House of Bishops and fairness to those mem
bers Of this house and the other members of
this church whom they represent, demands that
We concur with this request of the House Of
Bishops.
1T IS unnecessary for me to say, sir. that
separate myself with deep regret from the
members of this house with whom 1 have been
in the habit Of acting and who have been in
the habit Of acting with me. and join myself
to the company of those from whom nv
schemes have received nothing but opposition;
but sense of justice and Of courtesy com
pels me-"
The Rev. DR.. Greer followed and said this
was not the time for this subject to be dis
cussed. He said further: Let 1t come before
US openly and squarely and let US discuss it.
Let every man express his opinion and put
himself on record, but l submit that this mes
sage from the House of Bishops is simply to
create a commission to consider and report 1t
at some other time. 1t is neither positive nor
negative"

At its open session the house took up

how often he is called upon. Here's a
church to be built, another 10 be re-
paired, a church social. a Fourth OF
July celebration. sick benefit. a library
picnic, an entertainment course. and
hundreds OF other enterprises, to all
OF which he contributes.
Then as to their business methods,
your local merchant doesn't require
you to PUNK down the cash before he
shows You his goods. He sells you
the goods and if you haven't the cash
he is willing to give you a reasonable
time in which to pay it. Not so with
the mail order houses. You pay them
in advance, two or three weeks before
you ever see your merchandise. If you
haven't the cash you can go to the bank
and borrow it, or get along without the
goods. And it's always cash. No but
ter and eggs, chickens and cabbage, po-
tatoes or berries taken in trade. It's al
ways cash.
These are a few reasons that should
be considered in favor OF FOUR local
merchant when you are to make your
purchases.

r ISN'T III,

The English language "as she is
spoke is a strange and complex thing.
Take the word strike, for instance.
Webster says it means to hit, to knock,
to give a blow, yet the difference be-
tween a striker and a knocker is known
to all. Even the blower is different.
When a man makes a strike we think
him lucky. but after all it makes ON
differences as to whether he strikes oil
or a bigger man. When the bowler
makes a strike he smiles and tries to
look as if he had done it before. When
a ball player makes a strike he grits his
teeth and cusses the umpire. unless he
happens to strike out a ~two-bagger,
which is different again. When the la
boring men make a strike it means
trouble, when the p%rospector makes one
it means JOY unconfined. There is sure
ly something striking about the word.
To strike means to hit, but striking the
pipe gives a picture OF anger, whereas
hitting the pipe brings dreams OF almost
Elyslan Joys. When a lawyer moves to
strike there: is nothing dangerous,
when a pugilist does the same thing it
is we'll to wear an ear-mutf on your
solar pleNus.
At the mint they strike dollars every
day and no one is the worse for it, but
when a country strikes its flag the stuff
is off. There is nothing harmful about
striking a bargain and the girl who
wears a striking hat believes herself
strictly in it. When the printer strikes
off some job work and gets his pay
he thinks he is lucky and will be able
to strike off some of his accounts with
the money. When the bugles strike up
the advance the soldier boys strike into
a run and strike down their foes. When
the fire bell strikes it strikes us with
alarm, and when the college boy strikes
the old man for more coin the effect is
apt to be even more striking. The tree
strikes its roots. but to the baseball
rooters the strike is a thing abhorrent.
We fear to proceed lest some sub
scriber orders us to strike him from our
list.

Things are hotter in Ohio than they
are in Iowa and that is saying some
thing superlative. Tom johnson has
issued a proclamation to the Bryan
democrats and the fight is on between
those who kicked Bryan and those who
love him still. johnson saws in his
proclamation:
The Ohio convention repudiated the
last two democratic national platforms
and the action OF the convention was
the result of a conspiracy mapped out
at the headquarters in New York"
The call concluded as follows:
III the action of the convention
stands unrebuked then it must be un-
derstood that the democratic party, as
such, has repudiated the principles
e%nunciated in the Kansas City platform
and ratified and approved the course
pursued by the republican party on the
money question. If the democratic
party abandon the principles laid down
in the platform OF 1896 and 1900 then ii
may as well close its political career, fol-
there is little else of Importance tc
