The first annual session OF the ST..

vention was held in the Methodist Epis-
copal Church of Port Penn, OH Thursday

ed by the Rev. N. w. Davis, of Port

RESOLUTIONS AGAINST BRIBERY

The Presbytery of New Castle met on
last Wednesday during the recess OF the
Synod at the Church of the Covenant in
Washington, and the Rev. Francis ii.
Moore, ID. b., chairman of the committee,
appointed by Presbytery to draft suitable
resolutions rgainst bribery, presented the
report of the committee. The committee
consisted cf franci, III. Moore, u. H., /,
Thomas \ ;...tCur.!, ID. H., AMI i..c
Rev. John MoEl.no, ~. fhe ieso,ut,ons
which were unanimously adopted by
Presbytery, after recognizing the teach
ing of the Confession of Faith concerning
separation OF Church and State, reads:
"We are not unmindful of one great
function OF the Church, that of witnessing
for the truth and against all unrighteous-
ness, wherever found. This testimony is
to he borne by the steady and unfailing
proclamation OF the truth as it is in Jesus
the only remedy for the ills and evils
Of society, and by lives in harmony with
this truth, manifesting righteousness in
all duties sacred and secular, and in all
relations, individual, social and civil.
"In harmony with these principles the
Presbytery of New Castle views with
alarm the widespread and increasing
evil, not only within our borders, but
throughout our country Of the corrupt
and corrupting use by individuals and
parties, OF money in furtherance OF their
ambitions, resulting in the decentralization
of the community and in the debauchlng
of the public conscience.
ave unhesitatingly and without re-
serve condemn all such practices as SIN
which is reproach to any people, as
crime against that righteousness which
exalteth a nation, and as serious men-
ace to the progress of the Kingdom oi
Christ.
ave therefore urge the ministers and
members of our Churches, and all citizens
within the limits of New Castle Presby-
terry, to let their influence and their ef-
forts tell to the utmost in directing public
sentiment against this iniquity, and in
the prompt securing of such effective leg
slation as shall result in the unhindered
spread of temperance and sobriety, polit-
ical morality and righteousness through
ont our bounds
