Presbyteries for their adoption
adopted the eight Concurrent De
clarations; and also submitted tC
the Presbyteries resolution No. l,
in the Joint Report, which, il
adopted by the Presbyteries, will
so change the form of government
of the Church as to permit sepa-
rate Synods and Presbyteries for
the different races or nationalities
when SO desired by said race or
nationality.
Just at this point in the pro
ceedings we are often met with the
statement that the two churches
have united. Which statement is
not true. Others are in doubt as
to just what has been done and
they ask, Have the two churches
united? Our answer to this is,
They are not yet united and may
never be.
If the reader will keep in mind
the following facts he will have no
difficulty in determining what has
been done by the two churches and
what the probable results may be:
1. The two Assemblies in 1908
appointed committees with author
ity to hold joint meetings and for
mulate basis of union for the two
churches.
2. The Committees meeting in
joint sessions unanimously agreed
on a basis to be submitted to the
respective Assemblies in a joint
report.
8. The Joint Report was sub
mitted to the two Assemblies and
every recommendation in it was
by each of the Assemblies.
4. 1t now remains for the con-
majority of the Presby-
teries in the two churches to vote
in the affirmative on the basis of
union, and for the Presbyteries of
the Presbyterian Church in the
United States of America to adopt
resolution No. /, which provides
for a change of government in
said church, to make union COM
plete with the two churches.

A Remedy That No One Is

DR.. Thacher's Liver and Blood Syrup
has been used in thousands of homes for
ffty-two years with perfect confidence
and the most remarkable results.
The great success of this remedy is due
to the fact that its formula (Which con-

known remedies for correcting all irreg-

A. e. DARRAH, Conductor.

Next Monday, June 5, is open
ing day for the Summer Normal
School, which is to be conducted in
our city again this year. Already
the advance guard of the student
body is filing in, and at the ap
pointed time the main army will
ARRIVE.
On last Tuesday morning the
writer had the pleasure of meet
ing Master Fred Blanchard, from
Hornbeak, this county, who will
enroll as a pupil. This young
man is only twelve years old, but
has completed all the primary
studies, as prescribed by our State
law, and intends taking the course
and examination, solely to demon
strate-for his own pleasure and
that of his friends-the fact that,
even at this age he is qualified to
receive in the regular way a GER
tifcate to teach in primary schools.
This is accomplishing much for
one so young, and he is entitled to
a feeling of no small pride in such
an achievement. Fred has bright
face, and his manly bearing and
lovely big eyes draw one to him
irresistibly. If his manhood full
fills the promise of his youth, he
will make a citizen far above the
ordinary, a citizen that will serve
his country and State with distinc-
tion.
The spirit of the school con-
Quoted here last summer was char
acterized by vim and decision, and
its far reaching influence upon our
county teachers is being clearly
evinced now by the universal in
terest manifested in the school
that is just about to begin. The
teachers of our county expect
nothing else but to come and the
attendance this year will be larger
than ever before.
We are informed that a change
has been made in the faculty: Prof.
Andrew Mcclellan, of Murfrees-
boro, man of note both as a
teacher and as speaker, will be
sent to us instead of Miss Shep-
pard of jackson. The conductor

noble band of workers did it.
Our State Institute was taken
away from Union City because it
was not sufficiently appreciated
and patronized by the teachers of
Obion county. Two years ago our
county institute consisted of near
ly one hundred teaehers-all of our
county, and each paid two dollars
towards defraying current ex-
penses. Last year one hundred
and sixty of Obion's best teachers
expressed a high appreciation of
what the State and county were
doing for them by enrolling active
earnest and conscientious pupils.
Great opportunities are in store
for us. Shall we grasp them?

our teachers will come in a solid

UNION OF CHURCHES
Conditions of the Unifcation
of Two Protestant Bodies.

of Two Protestant Bodies.
Since my return from the meet
ing of the General Assembly of
the Cumberland Presbyte r "a n
Church which convened in Dallas,
Texas, May 10, 1904, | have been
called upon frequently to explain
the status of the Union question.
Believing that the readers of The
Commercial are likewise interested
in this question | have prepared
the following article for publica-
ton.
The two churches participating
in Union and Reunion at the meet
ings of their General Assemblies
in 1908. appointed committees
which were denominated the
Committee on Fraternity and
Union of the Cumberland Presby-
terian Church" and the Commit
tee on Church Cooperation and
Union of the Presbyterian Church
in the United States of America. "
The two committees thus APP
pointed, after holding several joint
meetings, unanimously agre ed
upon the following basis of union.
"The union shall he effected on the
doctrinal basis of the Confession of
Faith of the Presbyterian Church in
the United States Of America, as re-
yised in l903 and of its other doctrin-
al and ecclesiastical standards; and
the Scriptures of the Old and New
Testaments shall be acknowledged as
the inspired Word of God, the only in
fallible rule of faith and practice.
Each of the Assemblies shall sub
mit the foregoing Basis of Union to
it's Presbyteries, which shall be re-
qUired on or before April 30, 1905, to
express their approval or disappFoyal
of the same by categorical answer to
this question;
"Do you approve of the Reunion and |
Union of the Presbyterian Church ia
the United States of America and the |
Presbyterian Church, on
the following basis: The Union shall |
be effected on the doctrinal basis of |
the Confession of Faith of the Presby-
terian Church in the United States Of |
as revised in 1903, and of its
0 ther doctrinal and ecclesiastical
standards; and the Scriptures of the
DID, and New Testaments shall be ac-
knowledged as the inspired Word of
God, the only infallible rule of faith
and practice?"
The joint report made by the
two committees, from which the
above quotations are taken, which
is too long to quote in full in an
article like this, is divided into
,hree parts, viz:
1. Plan of Reunion and Union of
he two Churches.
2. Concurrent Declarations to be
.dopted by the respective General As
emblies meeting in 1904.
3. Recommendations.
This Joint Report on Union as
ormulated and adopted by the two ;
ommittees was submitted to the
espective General Assemblies, one I
neeting in Dallas, Texas, and the |
ther in Buffalo, N. Y, ,on May 10.
On May 25, after a debate last
ng two days, the Dallas Assembly s
y a constitutional vote of the |
1embers present, recommended

cries for their adoption; and at

attended, as well as most success
full institutes in the State, was that
which was conducted in the city
last year. Several causes con
tributed toward making it so great
success, prominent among which
were the following: first, the corps
of instructors whose ability and
fitness for the work to be- accom-
plished were SO well known; sec
ond, the almost perfect adaptable
ity for institute work of the great
public school building where the
daily sessions were held; third,
the beautiful homes where our
teachers were entertained, not
merely boarded and lodged, at a
price, too, so modest that ne teach
er seriously contemplat ing a
thorough review of the subjects
taught in our schools could afford
to remain at home. Every fea-
ture which made last years sum-
mer work so successful has been
retained and additional features
added.
For the benefit of those who at
tempted a secondary course last
year, | am glad to announce that
Prof. j. M. Moore, our popular
County Superintendent, will have
charge of the classes in algebra,
geometry and physics. The en-
viable reputation Prof. Moore en-
Joys on account of his ability TO
teach these subjects, together with
the happy results obtained by his
students, ought to stimulate the
desire of all who failed, hereto
fore, to renewed effort. Our
State Superintendent has shown
great wisdom in selecting so many
county superintendent for insti-
tute work. The time was when
the fewest number of our county
superintendent were capable of
SO responsible duty, but the
searching examinations which this
State official causes to be held in
every county in the State as pre-
liminery RECRUITMENT for filling
this most responsible Office in our
county government has driven
out scores of petty politicians and
replaced them with college bred
men. Another and potent reason
for appointing Prot, Moore an in
structor in the institute to be held
in Union City, is that he may be-
come thoroughly acquainted with
all the teachers under his immedi-
ate charge, as we'll as of all those
who attend from counties adjoin-
ng Obion.
The sixteen employing boards
Of Obion county are in thorough
harmony with their superintend-
INT, whom they regard as an ex-
,ert teacher, and whose advice
hey constantly seek when in
search of the best teachers for
heir respective schools. 1t is a
natural influence therefore that

men further disguised with old ragged
clothing, and with their horses Gov
cred with blankets, dynamited the
pipe line Of the Kansas Natural Gas
Company, where it crosses the pub
lie highways, near Liberty, ten miles
north of Coffcyville
Great excitement prevailed in Lib

ed men, some of them belonging to
the dynamiting party, and others be-
ing farmers who were trying to find
out the cause Of the explosions.
No one knows who the men were,
where they came from, or where they
went to.
The dynamiting was expected, the
air having been filled with talk Of that
nature for weeks past. The farmers
in this section are thoroughly arous-
cd, and more trouble is feared.

custot, Of Assuming Her Husbands
Is Lost In obscurity.
The custom which makes it proper
for the wife to assume the name OF
her husband at marriage Is involved
in much obscurity. A recent authori
ty advances the opinion that it origi
mated from Roman custom and be
came common after the Roman occu
patton Of England. Thus, Julia and
Octayia, married to Pompey and Cice
re, were called by the Romans Julia
Of Pompey and Octavia of Cicero, and
in later times the married women Of
most European countries signed their
names in the same way. but omitted
the "of." In spite Of this theory it is
a fact that as late as the sixteenth
century Catherine Parr signed her
name without any change, though she
had been twice married. We also hear
Of Lady Jane Grey, not Dudley, and
Arabella Stuart, not Seymour, etc,
Some think that the custom originated
with the Scriptural idea that the hus.
band and wife are one. This was the
rule Of law as far back as 1868, and 1t
was decided in the case Of Bon versus
Smith, in the reign Of Elizabeth, that
a woman by marriage loses her form.
