their duty bravely as they saw it. 1t was con-
tended by the compliments that the question
of the doctrinal souhdness of DR.. Caldwell was
not involved in the case. 1t was, however, clear
ly involved in the second specification of the
complaint whch'by the ruling of the Moderator
was before the court throughout the argument,
and was discussed by both sides, mainly by the
respondents Technically the vote was not on
this phase of the case, but the one specification
was involved in the other and necessarily affect
eel the decision of the case The final ruling
that all votes 'tO sustain in part and "not to
sustain in part must be counted as votes ''to
sustain" giving majority of one to the COM
plainants, savors more of technicality than of
truth and was by no means satisfactory YER

The action of the Assembly on the Articles
of Agreement, referring them to the Presby-
terles for consideration, will be heartily APP
proved, we believe, by the church at large
The sentiment this subject was so nearly
equally divided, and the question at issue was
of so radical a nature as to require most careful
and thorough consideration. To our mind tie
subject involves something more than any form
of cooperation. OF the five leaders, conspicuous
in favOring the Articles four were avowedlv in
favor of organic union, and the other prophe-
sying its advent Yet a plea often heard is
adopt the Articles and prevent union" 1t is
a significant fact that all advocates of union
OF whatever church, are also advocates of the
Articles of Agreement. We need ever to bear
in mind that fraternal fellowship and co-opera-
ton in Christian activity is most earnestly de-
sired by all. 1t is also to be remembered that
the independence of the church, on which the
Divine blessing is most richly bestowed and
whose labors are crowned with such signal evil
dences of Gods favor, is to be cherished and
maintained.
To a thoughtful observer it was clearly evil
dent that there were two distinct parties in
the Assembly, that appeared again and again
as particular subjects presented themselves for
consideration. They lined up with but
slight variations on number of issues
They might be named the liberals and conserva-
tives, corresponding in general to this classif-
cation in other religious bodies. On the ques-
ton of Federation, on the Caldwell Case, on
Republshing the Distinctive Principles of the
Church, on Sending Delegates to the Council
of the American Federation of Churches, the
same men were seen in line on either side with
the same leaders, if leaders were needed. with
few exceptions only on the last named issue
which was not in form to be test. Our church
may as well recognize that she has '1ibcral"
