CULLOM'S CAMPAIGN.
His County Leaders VIII BE Men Not on
Federal Payroll.

CHICAGO, July Ex-senator Cullom's
political managers are planning to or
eanize every county in the State on basis
which will relieve him from the criticism
that Federal oficeholders are his only
political managers. Former Lieut.-Gov.
Northoott probably will have much to
do with the new movement. 1t is proposed
to build up Cullom county organizations
under the leadership Of men who are not
on the Federal payroll, ard who will direct
an appeal to the voters OF the State on
the ground Of the veteran Senator's ser
vice in Congress. -,
Senator Cullom probably will devote
little time to a canvass OF the State. 1t Is
expected that he will endeavor to make
one speech in each Congress district
but will not attempt to compete with ex-
Governor Yates in transforming. sly

The delegates who had been elected

were, debarred the privilege of taking
part in the interchurch conference on
the ground that their denomination is,
from the standpoint Of the conference,
non-evangelical. The address says, in
part:
I'VE are refused admission to the
meeting on the grounds that Unitarians
are not Christians. Our characters
were not impeached; but our beliefs
were condemned as heretical.
In spite Of the protest of a number

CT Christian America
We make no controversy over this
action, which puts not us, but it's pro-
motors, at the bar Of an enlightened
public opinion. In view Of it, however,
1t seems timely for us to affirm anew
the simple truth, proclaimed of old by
Christ himself, that righteousness of
life and spiritual efficiency, rather than
orthodoxy or belief. is the test of
Christian discipleship. We affirm that
the doctrine of the will Of the Master
Is the vital thing, and that beliefs
about the nature of Christ are unim-

obedience to his precepts.
THE Unitarian churches of America

Christianity in our land should be glad
to be confronted by stimulating chal.

Whatever good things these other
denominations propose to accomplish
and we deeply appreciate the good
they do, 1t is manifest that, as repre-.
sented by this action, they are both un
willing and unable to commit them
selves to the great Christian principles
of freedom and brotherhood.
1t is for us, therefore, to urge with
new insistency and in the spirit of uni

and conduct that lie back of all the

in the true worship of all the churches

present age.
eve, therefore, appeal to all liberal
Christians to put fresh courage and pa
tient devotion in their own significant
work. We certainly shall not try to
build higher the barriers which seem to
stand between us and our brethren of
other Christian communions.
God forbid that any among us
should make that sad mistake. We are
called upon to recognize that our dis
tinctive message, which we believe to
be and strive to make the truth of the
gospel of Jesus Christ is still needed
in all parts of the world
"By fearlessly proclaiming the ideals
of a simple and rational Christian
faith, and of spiritual high-mindednes
by living lives of public-spirited SER
vice, and widespread charity, by in
creasing the power of usefulness Of our
liberal churches and upbuilding our
institutions, we shall help to keep in
Christian discipleship those who have
been alienated from all religious con-
nections, and best promote the cause
of truth, freedom and righteousness.
when the good time comes that our
brethren in other Christian denomina-
lions know us better, they will find us
ready most cordially to cooperate with
them, and with all other religious
bodies, in establishing the kingdom of
God on earth"
