REVISION
CONTEST.

Philadelphia, May 25.--PreviouS
to the adjournment of the Presbyte-
rian General Assembly Thursday
evening Rev. DR.. David S. Kennedy,
of Allegheny, had taken the floor,
but as the hour for closing had ar
rived he did not begin his address.
At the opening of the business ses.
sion yesterday morning by general
consent he yielded for short time to
Judge Il, w. G. Humphrey, who
made the minority report in colloba-
ration with Rev. DR.. McKibbin.
"But il Judge Humphrey speaks
now that will be two arguments in
success sion upon the same side - OBJ
jected Dr. Herrick Johnson.
"Judge Humphrey is on btir Side"
answered the moderator. 80,
"Oh, all right, let him 90 on, I"
said Dr. johnson, apparently not
quite convinced,
81 may address you as though l
were in court, " said Judge Humphrey
"lf it please your honor and gentle
men of the jury, you are the presid-
ing Judge and the assembly is the
jury, and you will instruct them to
bring ina verdict.
Il may ask what has become of
the majority and minority reports.
They have disappeared and we have
but the one question of dismissal.
However | Shall speak to the reports.
This question OF revision Should Uc
settled here and now and not side.
tracked. Rev. DR.. Mcn:bbn and !
stand here today to say that If you
will strike at Clause b and the plan
for a new creed we Will vote with
you. | hold that the ma iority plan
does not call for revision but for a
new creed. Our report calls for re-
vision without cllecting Church
standards, We ask you to revise on
ly seven or eight sections of the
creed. We should do something.
We can't stop this agitation by post
punement. Let us stand now for
conservative revision"
Clause b provides for a summary,
explaining the creed, which shall
bear a relation to the confeS sion SIM
liar to that of the shorter to the
larger catechism.
Following the brief remarks of
Judge Humphrey, Rev. DR.. Kennedy
resumed the floor.
IL want to make this assertion,
which has not been brought out by
any speaker. The Confession OF
Faith Of this Church is scientific and
not popular, 1t never was made for
a popular purpose; that it is con-
structed from beginning to end ON a
scientific basis to be used for Scien-
tifc purposes. We DO not as do some
other denominations present our
Confcs sion to our people TO be by
them received and adopted as a cove.
nant Of fellowship; we simply use
our Confession OF Faith as COnSttu-
ton for our organization, and as a
scientific statement Of truths induced
from Holy Scriptures as definitely
setting forth our testimony to the
world as to what the Pres bytcrian
Church believes the Holy scriptures
teaches.
owe have drawn our Confession of
Faith from the same source from
which we draw our sermons, namely
the Word Of God: we drew the Con-
fcssiOn of Faith from that Word for
one purpose: we go to the same
source and draw forth our sermons
for another purpose and we do not
construct our sermons upon the
model or character Of the constitu-
ton upon the model Of a sermon
