METHOD|STS'
GREAT DAY
Bishop Cranston's Able
Sermon---GroWth
Past Year.

The First Methodist Episcopal
church was filed with large and at
tentive audience yesterday morning on
the occasion of Bishop Cranston IS ser
mon at the closing of the sessions of
the annual Mission Conference recently
held. The Bishops sermon took fifty
minutes in its delivery and held the
great congregation in the closest at
tentien from the first TO the last.
The whole address comprised a
solid, profound argument regarding the
atonement or sacrifcial offering of
Christ ana about the argument the
great orator wove in beautiful, in
spring language four pictures, grouped
in one, all illustrative of the deep
meaning of the Cross and drawn from
Biblical scenes in the life of Abraham
any measure convey a full and close
idea of this great sermon of a great
preacher, and the impression made will
never be forgotten by those who were
privileged to hear him. The Bishop
is to be heard again in the city several
times before leaving for the Orient on
the 14th inst. He speaks at the Min
isterial Union this morning at 1880,
on Wednesday evening in the Japa-
oL, IL Cnl
bath morning in the Methodist church.
Honolulu is greatly favored in the visit
of this distinguished Bishop, who is
warm personal friend of President.
Roosev> t, who invariably goes to hear
him preach when he occasionally oceu-
pies a pulpit in one of the largest
churches of Washington.
At the close of the Bishops sermon,
Rev. John W. Wadman, superintendent
of the Hawaiian Mission of the nj. E.
Church, read the appointments of the
Is or 20 japanese and Korean evangel-
lists employed by him on the different
islands. The one new appointment
among the American workers to that of
Miss Dean, who came with the Bishop
for work among the japanese women
in this city. Miss Dean has spent some
years in Japan and speaks the language
fiuently. She will be great acquisi
tion to the work. Mr.. Wadman then
read brief statistical report cover

The Aftermath in Oklahoma.

It's "Swill time" In Oklahoma.
Tho recent victory of the Democrats has
done wonders toward bringing out candi-
dates for fat political jobs From every
nook and corner they are protruding their
thirsty snouts in the hope that some OF
the political swill to be handed around
will come their way. For a long time
now they have been sloshing around in
the hog pen Of oblivion. and the first
opportunity to attract notice Is being
taken advantage of.

lingering like sort OF evil dreams
T, dream that had fallen upon mankind In
! the decline OF Roman civilization, and
was but now dissiputing before healthier
morning. The most powerful weapon In
their armory was the confistation of
buildings additionally used for worship.
These were to be conflscated unless the
Catholic Church would accept a Presby-
terian form OF government. It was very
much as though Walpole's Government
had said to the dissenters OF his time.
You shall be permitted to own your
places OF worship and to meet freely on
condition that you form some sort Of
episcopacy recognized by the State"
Rome Says "No."
There is. indeed. no doubt that Cath
oliicism could accept legal committees
who should hold the churches and the
church goods in trust on condition that
those committees were under authority.
AS It Is the whole object OF the anti
clericals that they should not be under
authority such n compromise can never
come to pass.
Here, then, is the interest OF the stu
alton. The battle has been suddenly en-
gaged-much more definitely and much
more suddenly than the anti-cler.cal grour
expected. They expected a long and
process. They had, upon the contrary,
thrust upon them the task of forcibly
conhscating all ecclesiastical goods what
soever upon given date and of leaving
ii to the local authority whether these
confiscated buildings and goods shall or
shall not be lent TO a body of gentle
men of whom the state has no cogni-
zance. but whom 1t hears are called the
Catholic priesthood.

what Is curiously enough product of
thollcisnl-convinccd and militant anti
clericallsm
Two forces ecttnS under the anti-ceri-
calls are the Hlguenotg and the Jews.
There exists IN France small, but very
Influential. body OF Hugnenots number
ing some two per cent. only of the popu-
lation but forming something like twenty
per cent OF the woll-to-do clnssa n
some of the most important centres In
French life. These men have swarmed
in the liberal professions ever since Jhe

fession has weakened to less thnn moth
ing. yet whether they call themselves
Sabatier and talk milk and water about
st. Francis or Plchon and say MOI g
about their. religion, or Monod, or Reclus
they are all united in one common hatred
OF the Catholic Church.
The Jewish Opposition TO Rome.
OF the Jewish body It Is less easy to
speak The French Jews are very
small and an exceedingly wealthy body.
They have not the same power oyer
French finance that English Jews have
over English finance, and they have far
less secret power over the government of
France than the members OF their race
pies. Intellectually, 1t Is probable that
these men in their heart OF hearts de-
spise Catholicism less than they despise
any other mode of European thought.
Their inteilecta are simple, direct, and
energetic and their emotions strong: q log
zeal and exalted system therefore appeals
to them. The jew as nomad and a
cosmopolitan and an alien citizen to whom
furious local patriotism must always
be dangerous began to side against the
Catholic Church as the latter sided with
national tradition. He did not do so
with any anirnosity until the opening of
the DreSfus case, and even to-day tho Jew
preserves n curious reticence in his at
tack which forms one of the moss in
terestine of contemporary psychological
and clinical studies.
Catholics Against Catholicism.
The advance of both these forces, the
Huguenot and the jew, are insignificant
compared with the attack OF the purely
antl-Catlollc type which Catholicism pro-
duces by reaction.
To these men the church appears the
enemy of all that is worth having and tho
ally OF all that is evil, notably of those
twin vices which are corruption and
death in any state-hypocr!sy and the
habit OF servi,ude. Every effort of the
faith to recover fits old authority pro-
duces a further energy In these people.
A series OF ACCIDENTS which have here
no space to detail. but whose origins lie
back in the apathy and corruption of the
middle eighteenth century. has put some
or the purely mundane traditions Of the
church into antagon!sm with some of
the most enthusiastic AMI the least world
vs. of the national aspirations; working
upon the antagonism as wedge would
work in the assure of solid substance

The Republic and the Priest.

There has been no single conflict. how
ever -idiculously simple the misunder-
standing, in which the debate between
the priest and the anti-clerical has not
been decided against the priest by the
popuiace since the republic was founded
And here we touch the very heart OF
our subject. Hitherto the debate had
been purely academic. The anti-cler!cal
mad perpetually and successfully posed
as the exponent OF national demands
The priest had managed by series OF
blunders and by the necessary isolation
OF his position to misunderstood these
demands. to be silent upon them, or in
moments OF exceptional folly to oppose
them. But the quarrel had not hitherto
been directly connected with the priest
qua priest Th. priest had rather been
sort of telegraph used by the anti
cleric as symbol OF the counter-revolu-
ton. The anti-clerical knew perfectly
well that he and his made up but a
small minority OF the nation, but he
also knew that his policy and his perma-
nent presence at the head of the govern
ment would end in weakening the tie
between the Frenchman and his national
religion. For years the anti-clerical any
the Masonic organizations to which he is
attached have openly and sincerely said
supreme Indifference in which to ef-
feet the final overthrow of Christianity.
they We're waiting for Just that moment
when the people should have become at
least sufficiently Indifferent for blow
to succeed. The calculation was exactly
like other political calculations in all
countries. 1t was calculation made by
a few men of initiative in the terms OF
the general lethagy around them.
Anti-Clerical Legislation.
During the last five years the very
rapid development of anti-clerical legis-
lation. It's continued and unexpected sue
cess, gradually led the small but highly
talented anti-clerical body to determine
that the critical moment in the battle
was rapidly approaching. The law OF
separation between church and state was
voted and was framed even to it's details,

for It's central Thought "thf impos-
sipility Of avoiding Christ" He
showed in a most striking manner
how. the Savior. came to every indi-
vidual no matter what reception. was
given Him. II ,
The general idea that often pre-
vailed pitturing the Redeemer as
standing aloof and merely inviting
humanity to come to Him was an i'm
perfect idea. Christ goes to every
man and to every soul He becomes
"The unavoidable Christ The
speaker illustrated his point in a
most striking manner by the story of
a rich business man who not only
denied the authenticity Of the Bible
but Indignantly resented the sugges-
ton that he recognized Christ in any
phase Of his social or. business life.
1t was then that this worldly man
was shown that on every page of his
ledgers-on every note. bond or
mortgage that he held-great i'm
portance attached to the few figures
that reckoned time from the birth of
the Savior. He was forced to
acknowledge that he would not re-
ceive a check or stock certificate
unless its date showed unequivocal-
ly 'the years of our Lord" 1t was
Impossible to avoid Christ. The man
began to think and later became an
enthusiastic Christian.
