The Cumberland Assembly.

A dispatch from Dallas, Tex, last night
says: Little more than the preliminary to
fits regular business was accomplished at the
first session here of the seventy-fifth annual
general assembly of the Cumberland Pres
byterian Church
During the morning a praise service and
the delivery of the annual sermon by the
Rev. r. NJ. Tinnorn, d. D., of Denver, Col,
consumed the time The sermon was one
suggestive of and favorable to the proposed
union of the Cumberland Presbyterian
Church and the Presbyterian Church of the
United States OF America.
Judge w. E Settle of Frankfort, KY,
judge of the court of appeals of that state,
was chosen moderator. His opponent was
Judge L. H. Prendergast of Marshall, Tex.
The contest between these two candidates
was considered distinctly one between the
elements of the church favoring union with
the Presbyterian Church in the United
States and those opposing 1t. Judge Settle,
the winning nominee, being regarded as IA
yoring the union. He was elected by vote
of 1853 to T6.
The report of the committee on fraternity
and union advocates the union of the Cum
berland Presbyterian and the Presbyterian
Church of the United States of America on
the doctrinal basis of the Confession of
Faith OF the Presbyterian Church of the
United States as revised in 1903. The report
states 1t is mutually recognized that doctrf-
nal agreement now exists between the two
churches, and suggests how the details of
the union may be adjusted.
The dosing recommendation provides that
the Presbyterian Church shall make such
change of government will allow sepa-
rate presbyteries for a particular race or

Appeal for Church Unity.

A dispatch from Cleveland, Ohio, last
night says: A significant address by Presi-
dent A. II. Strong of Rochester Theological
Seminary on the UNCONVENTIONAL outlook
was the feature of todays Baptist ami
versaries.
After a review of the remarkable growth
OF the BaptistS in America, he pointed out
the UNCONVENTIONAL changes that have taken
place through progressive theology and a
new recognition of relationship to other de-
nominations and to society. Baptists today,
he said, recognize the unity of Christians,
and work in Christian fellowship with all
denominations loyal to Christ. Baptists, he
declared emphasized their unity with other
Christian bodies rather than their differ
ences between them. 1t was unanimously
voted that first edition of 100000 copies
of this address be printed and circulated.

WHY THE STATESMAN GROWS.

The Daily Statesman has gained two
hundred pad-up subscribers in the last
six weeks and the circulation is now
growing at the rate of fifty a week.
Besides there has been a remarkable
increase in street sales. The reason of
This rapid growth in the circulation of
the Statesman is the general recOgni-
lion and appreciation by the public of
the fact that the evening paper has a
great advantage over any morning
competitor in recording the news of
the world as we'll as local events.

which that act was a gross and bar

inwards is revofted by such sectarian
trifiing with the conscience of nearly
half the nation. Whether Chamberlain

dentally cause the death of a system
which he apparently looked upon with
more or less contemptuous indiffer-
ence. probably foreseeing it's brief
struggle upon earth. The nonconform-
lists have made no theatrical resistance.
They have simply sat back, with the
silent argument of the mule, and calm
ly refused to pay money for what they
deemed law opposed to the spirit of
British liberty. The law took it's
course. and every penalty inflicted

cannot make a contemporary English
man rejoice at the sight of a neighbor
punished for legitimate belief. You
will hardly find, even among the tories
many who, when it comes to such an
actual test of faith, wish to crowc so
unwelcome a system forcibly upon

DOC SMITHS MONUMENTAL GALL

The Politician of the Spokesman
Review says:
The announcement of Dr. j. j.
Smith of King county that he is a cam
didate for governor is gall immaculate.
Smith was the arch betrayer in the
last legislature. not only of the sena-
tOrial candidate to whom he was pledg-
ed. but OF the commission plank in the
republican state platform. The rail-
road lobby made him president of the
senate and. in return. he carried out
oy George Stevenson and the railroad
retainerS. who made the legislature u
carnival of broken promises and lobby
corruption.
If the railroad lobby is 10 name the
next governor of this state. we would
better have the substance than the
shadow. George Stevenson himself
might as Well be elected as Dr.. Smith.
and he would stand just as much
he would bring to the office higher
order of executive ability. more fidelity
to his friends. and more familiarity
with public affairs.
1t can not he that Smith is serious.
or. if he is. that any good citizen of
the state contemplateS supporting him.
In the event however. that his nOmi-

WHY GROSSCUP IS WANTED.

The Walla Walla Commercial Club
about two months ago decided to work
for lower freight rates. 1t also de-
ciared itself in favor OF the division
of the state into two federal judicial
districts by north and south line.
The first of these objects can be gained
ONLY through the enactment OF an Ell
fective railway commission law. The
second is dependent upon the action OF
congress and recent dispatches from
Washington indicate that the line of
tricts will run east and west instead
of north and south. The purpose is
to make a place on the bench for 3. S.
Grosscup of Tacoma, who has earned
this reward by his work as attorney
and lobbyist for the Northern Pacific
railroad and in securing the election
of two railroad candidates to the
United States senate.
AS United States district judge
ton if necessary in order to serve the
ia ilrodas If a state railway commits
sion should endeaVOr to reduce rates
to a reasonable basis he would inter-
pose the power of his court to pre-
vent any reduction, just as SerVlle fed
eral Judges have done in California in
the interest of the Southern Pacific.
If a state tax commission should make
a heavy increase in railroad assess
ments. Grosscup could nullify their
work.
OF course appeal could be taken from
Grosscup's decision to the United
States circuit court and to the supreme
court of the United States, but all that
would involve much time and great
expense with an uncertain outcome.
There is no reason to doubt that
Senators Ankeny and Foster are bound
hand and foot to the support of Gross
cup for appointment to the federal
bench and nothing can prevent his get
ting this life position except the re-
fusal of President Roosevelt to carry
out the bargain made with the railroad
lobby. Grosscup recently took lunch
con with Roosevelt and the presump-
ton is strong that everything has been
fixed for his appointment. But Elgor-
Gus protests from the people of eastern
Washington. who are vitality interested
in the question of reasonable freight
rates as we'll as in the question of the
integrity of the judiciary, might move
President Roosevelt to reconsider any
promise he may have made to Gross
cup.
