of Bryan interfere with his vote, is
simply voting to continue the rule OF
republicanism. and if he stays away
from the polls he is giving a half
vote to Taft.

school system is that those in charge
think the more studies that are piled
into the curriculum the better Thor

thoroughness in the essentials would
be far better for the system and the
children educated under it.

in favor of the coming together OIL dli
denominations. He did not believe that
Jan. 1, 1909, the time set for the pro-
posed union, was a sufficient time for
assimilation. On the whole, he was in
favor of the proposed union.
In an additional word, DR.. Mower
told OF the forming of a working union
in authorization of the forming of the
organic union.
Rev. f. X Jordan of Pittsfield
thought that the proposed union was a
working union, and that the organic
union would be a matter of develop
ment. He read from Luke 1870, il
Illustrating the point of change of name.
In conclusion he moved that the con-
ference go on record as in favor of
the proposed union.
Rev. J. L. Smith of Clinton said that
the saline reason for union with 3ap-
lists exists for union with MethOdists.
Congregationalists and other churches.
The resolution was seconded by Rev.
A. d. Dodge of Waterville and adopt
ed as follows:
"Resolved, That we approve of the
statement or platform adopted as a
basis of union between the Baptlsts
and Free Baptists, at a conference
held in Boston March 49, 1908, between
representatives of the American Bap-
fist Missionary Union, the American
Baptist Home Mission Society and the
American Baptist Publication Society
and a committee Of the General Con-
ference of Free Baptists"
Accompanying the resolution was an
historical statement and the following
articles:
1T is recommended that the consti-
tuition Of the American Baptist Mis-
sionary Union, the American Baptist
Home Mission Society, and the Amer
lean baptist Publication Society be 50
changed as to admit to membership
Free Baptists on the same terms as
Raptists.
THAT the general missionary work
of the Free Rartists be adopted and
carried on by the American Baptist
Missionary Union. the American Bap-
fist Home Mission Society, the Amer
lean Baptist Publication Society, as
the missionary agencies Of the bodies
thus united.
THAT the churches of the united
bodies will be expected to contribute
to general missions through the above
agencies, and the representatives of
these agencies shall have equal stand
ing in all the churches.
THAT all the missionaries and pas
tors of the united bodies shall be
recognized as on the same footing in
al UNCONVENTIONAL activities.
"That this union shall go into effect
Jan. 1. 1909. provided that previous to
that time the Free Baptists shall have
approved it, and three-fourths of the
Baptist State conventions, where there
are yearly meetings or associations of
Free Baptists. shall have approved it.
The forenoon session was then ad-
journed.
During the progress of dinner, which
was served in the dining room of the
Gctchell Street church, q resolution
was passed thanking the pastor and
people of the entertaining church,
others who have aided, and the press
