bitterness and the publications and de-
bates of his later years lack much of the
spirit of almost intolerance which charac-
teriZed his earlier expressions. A we'll
educated man himself, Mr.. Campbell saw,
as the church grew, a large number of
earnest, but comparatively illiterate men
brought into the ministry. To correct this
evil he established at Bethany, Va, now
West Virginia, a theological school, which
has since become the alma mater of a
large number of men celebrated for their
learning and piety.
1t was strange that a man with the
mental caliber of Alexander Campbell
should not have been the first to discover
what has since become the fundamental
principle of the Christian church, but this
was left to a man who took up the work
in America eight years after Mr.. Camp
bell preached his first sermon.
Walter Scott of the family of the cele-
brated novelist, came to Pittsburg, Pa,
from Dumfrieshire, Scotland, in 1919, a
strict Presbyterian. He soon adopted the
doctrines which have since been recog
nized by the members of the Disciples
church. In 1921, two years before Alex
ander Campbell started the publication of
the Christian Baptist, Mr., Scott became
impressed with the thought that the cen
trail idea of the Christian religion is the
messiaship of Jesus; that the truth that
Jesus is the Christ, the son of God, is the
one fundamental fact of the scriptures.
He was the first of the ministers Of the
new church to offer the invitation which
has become so common in that church, the
words of Saint Peter, as recorded in the
account of the day Of PentecOst in the
Acts of the Apostles, Repent and be bap-

sermon which was not in harmony with the
tenets of the Presbyterian church and was
suspended by the p~resbytery. In 1904 he
was baptized by immersion, having con
cluded that baptism by any other form
was not scriptural. He built up a large
congregation in Kentucky at this lime.
In 1907, six years after Barton w. Stone
preached his first reform sermon, Thomas
Campbell, a Presbyterian preacher, came
to Pennsylvania from county Armagh, Ire
land. He was a native of County Down
and his father had been in America as a
soldier under General Wolfe at the storm
ing Of Quebec. The Irish preacher came
to this country in search of health and
became attached to the Anti Burgher
synod of North America. Here his liberal
construction of the communion ordinance
caused friction between him and the pres
bytery Of Charters, under which he held
a charge in Washington county, Pennsyl-
vania. He was censured by the presbytery
and the censure removed by the synod, but
he felt that he could never be on the same
terms with his former parishioners. He
formed the Christian Association Of
Washington. August II, 1909, and adopted
for his motto in religious affairs a senti-
ment which has become the keynote of
the Disciples: where the scriptures
speak, we speak and where the scriptures
are silent we are silent This a~ssocia-
ton was not recognized as a church until
1911, when the members all agreed upon
the doctrine of baptism by immersion and,
while retaining independence in some par
ticulars united with the Redstone Baptist
association.
Alexander Campbell was the son of the

tized, every one Of you, in the name of
Jesus Christ, for the remission of sins and
ye shall receive the gift of the Holy
Spirit" 1t is said of Scott by members
of the church that he restored the ordi-
nance of Christian baptism to it's proper
place as one Of the conditions of pardon"
Scott and Campbell in 1923 became as
ISOLATED to a greater or less extent and
there was some connection between the
churches which the former had organized
in Pennsylvania and those that the lat
ter preached to in Ohio, to which state
he removed in 1924. In 1929 the churches
accepting the doctrine taught by Scott
formally withdrew from the Baptist as
ISOLATION, with which they had been as
s~ociated, and were called Disciples" by
their friends, "Scottites" or Campbell
ties by their opponents. In 1882 Walter
Scott established the Evangelist, which
today is one of the strongest of the church
publications. He died in Kentucky in
1861. Stone in Kentucky, Campbell in
Pennsylvania and Scott in Ohio all took
for their guide the bible alone, the fol-
lowers of each rejected all creeds formed
by men, Even the Apostles creed, until
that time recognized by every church,
Catholic and Protestant alike, was cast
aside by them, so that when the growing
centers approached the limits of the other
there was a union of sentiment and forces
which brought together the people who
held this common belief. There are
treasured in the comparatively brief his
tory Of the church the names of men other
than these, who have held aloft the ban
ner Of faith in the earlier days. Among

founder of the Christian association. He
was born in County Antrim, Ireland, AMI
came to this country in 1909, having at
tended the University of Glasgow for a
short time. At the university he became
dissatisfied with the doctrines of the Pres
byterian church, in which he had been
raised, and when he arrived in America
he found that the faith of his father was
also shaken. The younger Campbell
brought the power OF a trained mind to
bear upon the reformation !naugurated by
his father. Together they discussed
theological questions and it was Alexander
Campbell who led the association into the
ranks of the Baptists by insisting upon the
practice of baptism by immersion. In 1910
he preached his first sermon, but was not
ordained until 1912. He was not baptized
by immersion until that year, when his
father and a large number of the mem
bers of the new church were baptized.
From that time he assumed the leader
ship of the church in Washington and
pushed his work into the west. He was
the publisher OF the Christian Baptist for
seven years, from 1928 to 1880. He de-
hated with all who offered debate, includ-
ing members OF other churches and agnos-
tics. He translated a portion Of the bible,
published several theological works and in
1929 started the publication of the Millen-
NAL Harbinger, which he continued until
his fathers death, March 4, 1866. Mr..
Campbell was a member Of the Virginia
Constitutional convention Of 1929, being as
ISOLATED with James Madison, James Mon
roe and John Marshall. His style was
forceful and his sarcasm, which he used
unsparingly in his first publication, was
biting in the extreme. Age tempered his

@1THE Christian church convention
which is now in session at Omaha
~ Is a gathering of an essentially
IhHNIDM American church, the men who es-
- tablishod It being residents Of this
country. The church shows its American
origin in many respects, and in none more
than the fact that it practices the plan Of
maintaining the equality Of all members
Known to its members as Christian or Dis
clples of Christ, 1t has been called by out
siders "Campbellite" from the name OF
Alexander Campbell, one of the early
preachers of the doctrines protested by
members OF the church, and the son of the
man who first organized a society which
had for it's name Christian without any
other distinguishing appellation. The Cr-
ganization of the present church was not
the work of any one man, but by a peculiar
coincidence each one OF the men who were
prominently identified with its organization
were men OF Scotch descent and each
had been connected with the Presbyterian
church as ministers before he started upon
the work OF bringing about what he deemed
needed reforms in the practices and doc
trines of the church.
The first man who preached the doc
trines of the present church OF the Disciples
was Barton Warren Stone, who was Or
dained as a pastor Of the Presbyterian
church at CAMBRIDGE, Bourbon county KY
in 1898. While preaching the severe
doctrines of Calvin, he did not accept all
OF the Westminster confession ana atter
thinking deeply and for several years upon
the subject Of predestination, came TO the
conclusion that it was not taught by the
scriptures. In 1901 he preached MS hrst

STATUE OF BISHOP

Great Methodist Divine Hon

Was One of the Trusted Advisers of
President misunderstanding His
tory Of the Model

PHILADELPHIA. April Sin the pres
enc OF large number OF clergymen and
Others Interested in the affairs Of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, a bronze
statue OF the late Bishop Matthew Simp-
son was unveiled on the ground Of the
Methodist Episcopal Home for the Aged.
at Belmont and Sedgely Avenues. yester-
day afternoon. The statue is OF heroic
proportions, being nine feet in height and
mounted upon a granite pedestal OF equal
height
The unwilling exercises were opened
with prayer by Bishop Cyrus D Foss.
and with the reading OF a ScripturaI les
son by Presiding Elder J. r. T. Grey.
After the unwilling OF the monument by
Mrs c. W Buoy. a daughter OF Bishop
Simpson. an address WAS made by Rev.
William Y. Kelley. Rev. DR.. s. W. Thorn

which was responded to by Bishop Foss.
Others who spoke were Rev. DR.. W. r.
McDowen, Rev. Or. A C. Kynett. Rev.
Dr. J. G. BickertOn, and Rev Dr. F. c.

The statue is located upon a point OF
land belonging 70 the Home for the Aged
ana IN tuil view OF the Methodist Epis-
copal Orphanage. This site was regarded
as an appropriate one for the memorial.
as both OF these institutions owe their
origin and development largely 10 Bishop
Simpson and his wife.
Bishop Simpson was one OF the trusted
advisers o. President Lincoln. In 1854 it
was decided to erect a massive monu-
ment concentrating the War Of the Re
belliOn. to consist OF statues OF a number
OF representative men grouped about
President Lincoln. CLARK Mills, the IA
nous sculptor, was employed to model the
figures IN clay. He had finished that Of
Bishop Simpson and one other when the
assassination Of Lincoln put an end to
the project. The model was urchased
from the estate OF Mr.. Mills, after his
death, and brought 20 this city J. was

for the work and for the pedestal were
obtained largely through the efforts Of
