NEGRO BAPT|STS
IN HOT CONFLICT
"IS PASTOR SAACTIFIED?" THE
GREAT QUESTION
Negro Congregation of Pasadena
Throngs Department Eight of Su-
perior Court-Bring Much
Theological Literature

Armed with every description of
Baptistic literature known to the
church of that denomination. the negro
congregation and eX-Congregation of
the Friendship Baptist church of pasa-
dena thrOnged the court room of de-
partment Yesterday to make plain
certain differences in the church which
have caused one of the greatest
sChisms ever experienced in the south
ern district.
The petitioners in the suit had a big
complaint and they were not bashful
about explaining their trouble. And
while the trial progressed and witness
after witness took the stand the white
teeth flashed and the woolly heads
bCbbed up and down in the intense ex-
Citement of the proceedings.
The petition of 10S members of the
congregation asked that an injunction
be issued against Rev. j. d. Bushell,
pastor OF The church, restraining him
from selling certain church property
or handling certain church funds.
The Friendship church was organized
in 1892 and progressed smoothly until
the arrival of Rev. Mr. Bushell. three
years ago. In 1894, according to the
complaints of the congregation, Bushell
became "rantankerous' and his synp-
toms didn't seem to "segashawate' in
the right direction. and one fine morn
| ing, to the surprise and confusion Of
his flock, he is alleged to have stepped

Congregation Wrathy

| The congregation failed to appre =
! ciate the news and Bushell repeated
the statement. Then some of his flock
became wrathy. They produced the
doctrine of the church. in which it was
clearly written that q person could not
become sanctified except through a
slow process, and as they had not
noticed any gradual improvement in
their pastor they doubted his state
ments and refused to accept them.
Then the trouble began in earnest
and when the covenant of the church
was produced and shown to the minis
ter he is alleged to have thrown it on
the floor and tramped on it, The
breach between congregation and mir
lister widened. and it is alleged he
called a number of the advocates of
the strict Baptist doctrine before him
and banished them from the church be-
cause they failed to believe the sancti-
fiCation proposition. Fifteen were eX-
PEELED at one time while smaller
classes We're ushered out with scant
ceremony on other occasions.
A woman and man We're hailed be-
fore the directors of the church on a
| charge of improper conduct and the
man was expelled, but when it came to
eXpelling the woman she is alleged to
| have threatened to "tell' on number
of the leading members of the church.
She was allowed to remain in the con-
gregation.
one hundred and eight members were
ushered out of the congregation, which
left about fifty-three members, all of
whom sided with the holiness preacher.
The petitioners wind up their COM
plant by stating that Bushell is
bigoted, uncharitable and unkind to all
who do not claim to possess sinless per-
fection.
Further evidence in the case will be
taken today and a verdict may be rem
dered.

ANEW TEMPERANCE AGENT.

With all the splendid results enunl-
Grated of rural free delivery Of mail
It remained for the state of Wiscon-
sin to discover the value of the rural
mail route as foe to intemperance
A writer on the Evening Wisconsin
towns and villages Of the state has
suffered a serious falling of since the
rural mail service became general.
Previously, going for the mail furnish
ed the bibulous farmer an excellent
excuse for dropping into the village
and spending the evening in the com
partnership of others inclined to wres-
tie with "suds' and red liquor, and men
who went to the pos toffice in good
faith too often wandered into the sa-
loon and joined in the joviality. Now
only those thirsty souls who are proof
against wifely admonition make nightly
trips to the village and the saloons.
Naturally, here in Iowa. this remedial
effect of the rural route has passed un-
Is
noticed. The small town and the sa-
loon in this state do not as usual
thing agree. While there are saloons
In some villages and smaller Iowa
towns they are the exception to the
rule, which, in this state, banishes
the GROCERY to the cities. The whisky
drug store too often exists undisturbei
in our little towns but it is usually not
q place for carousal or continued con-
VITALITY.
The comparison is at once gratifying
and valuable. Wisconsin, with its sa-
loon-cursed villages, finds the rural
route a temperance force. Iowa, with
her clean little towns, has never notic-
ed or thought of the routes as a deter
rent against drunkenness, The moral
is entirely obvious.

THE SHORTAGE IN POPULATION.

Now that the state census figures
have been checked ami verified the to-
tails leave Iowa somewhat more than
$1,000 in population minus the figures
OF the national census of 1900, state
Of affairs that to the average Iowan
who has seen and noted the progress
Immediately about him seems impos-
sible. However, the count has been
made whether correctly or not and the
figures of a loss stare us in the
face that would depopulate Davis
county, remove all the inhabitants of
Grundy or Franklin or Howard coun-
ties and then be unsatisfed, or that
would take every farmer out of Story.
Where have they gone?
"A period Of prosperity in an agri-
cultural country is the signal for a
hegira. Armed with the accommodations
Of the prosperous years our farming
population has followed the plane of
least resistance and sought the cheap
er lands. Every renter dreams of own
ing farm and almost every land own
1ngs. The land hunger is a common
and irresistible impulse. Thus when
the renter saw in his swelling bank ac-
count and increased personal holdings
respectable payment toward farm
OF his own he trekked north to Minne-
sofa and the Dakotas OF south to Mis-
souri, or the farther south. The rent
er who found his rent raised because
land had increased largely in price
went seeking lower leases. Younger
farmers who sold their Iowa lands on
the rise took the money into new
country and spread it over a farm
twice the size of the one they sold
There has been a hegira out Of Iowa
for the past five years. The American
and Canadian northwest are richer for
Iowa's loss.
The T.-R. suggested long ago that
much of the loss on rural population is
due to improved machinery and new
methods of farming: that the "hired
man." the month hand" is passing
and that in passing he has left void.
This is the view held by Mr.. Johnson
Brigham. who is soon to furnish an ar
ticle bearing on 1ovsa's loss of popula-
tion to an eastern publication.
Still, there has been little confidence
expressed in the last state census. AS
state censuses are taken there is album
dant opportunity for mistake or neg
lect. Perhaps the count was correct,
and we are shy 15 600 souls but even
slight carelessness in every township
of the state would account for the dis
crepancy between the two census re-
ports. At any rate Iowa may balance

"uND1GEsTED RECIPROCITY

[Sioux City Journal.]
1t is generally admitted, as the les
son of recent experience. that reclpro-
city by treaty is impracticable. 1t IS
doubtful is reciprocity by statute is
practicable except as the general
schedules shall be made high enough,
as was contemplated under the Ding
ley act, to permit of a certain per
cent of reduction in specified cases.
But, as before intimated, the current
of thought in the Chicago conference
was opposed to tariff sufficiently
high to admit of such concessions
without involving antagonism to the
principle of protection, adherance to
which the conference was quick to
ayow. The ,propriety Of dropping the
word reciprocity was preached, but
1t was adhered to solely on the ground
OF expediency. 1t might better have
been dropped.
The conference was in the main
composed of two elements. First, those
who want lower duties as a means OF
guarding against retaliatory duties on
their own products in the export trade,
as in the case of Germany; second,
those who would have duties suffici-
emily low to invite foreign competition
in the domestic market.
The conference found itself utterly
unable to get down to details, and
the fact should have heightened it's
charity for the congress of the United
states, which must deal with details
if the matter is dealt with at all.
A proper general statement would
be that the conference was composed
of diverse interests impossible to har-
monte except on line Of objection.
AS a result, the country only has the
ambiguous resolutions and the recon-
mendations for an ambiguous perma-
nent organization.
One other conclusion seems war
ranted. which is that the conference
was called and conducted by men
intent upon their own affairs, and
whose duty of the matter from the
standpoint of national interest and re-
lation to the commercial powers of the
world had not in many instances pass
ed beyond the superficial stage.
