IN APPEAL BY DR.. M'KIBBIN
Presbyterians Importuned to Adopt
the Minority Report.
4 Prediction That There viii Be

Trouble II the Majority Recom-
mendatiops on Greed Revision Are
Approved-A Plea for Harmony.
PHILADELPHIA, Nay 25.-The pre-
| Iiminary exercises of the Presbyterian
General Assembly today were devoted
tions made by Dr. Purves on behalf of
the committee on church poHty The
| floor was then given to Dr. McKibbin,
sponsor of the minority report on creed
revision, as the question before the house
was on the substitution Of his report for
that of the majority report
Dr. .JcKibbin said: Il will relieve your
! minds by saying that do not. propose TO
make another long speech just wish TO
point out what you viii secure by adopt
ing the minority report There has not
been a request made here as yet that is
not answered by the minority report The
majority report might force many of US
from the fold. In the minority report IS
a chapter on missions. one upon the love
OF God. upon the Holy Spirit. upon the
salvation of infants, relief upon the ques-
tion of oaths, and relief from every other
vexed question
rs not this all that has been asked?
We are told that new statement is
wanted for popular use I do not think
this is provided by the majority report.
Section b" does not seem to have
friend. Can't we get together? Here are
men of many minds Are all concessions
to be made by one side? 1t is the middle
OF the watermelon that contains the
| sweetness. Why must we swallow every
thing or else have nothing?
''one hundred and ffty-four Presbyte-
ries ask for some change. but they are not
ready to ACCEPT the radical report of the
minority I believe If this majority re-
port goes through there will be trouble.
DR. Dickey has said he win be satisfied
! if we revise the creed slightly. None OF
the revisionists are going to weep if this
minority report is adopted. Whatever ac-
ton we take should have a large ma
jority behind it Let's have unity There
is sure to be a battle against new state
ment.
The minority report is like the one
made in 1892 and all Princeton men then
declared that it did rot destroy the funda-
mental principles Of the creed. Brethren
cf the dismissal, your opportunity IS here,
stand by the minority report If this is
passed it is no mans victory, No parts
victory.
"Do you know that the summary state
rnent :nust be adopted as a whole by the
Presbyteries, each Of the I34 sections must
have a two-third majority If it can be
adopted as a whole feel we are upon the
| verge of a great reunion Of the Presbyter-
ian Church If the majority report ear
