COLOR LINE BOBS
. Up IN CONFERENCE |;
Resolution Offered Looking to
Closer Federation Among the
Colorcd Members.

BALTIMORE. MD, May 12.--With the
view to closer federation among the
colored members OF tic Methodist lpis-
copal and the various otller Methodist
denominations of the United States, and
eventually union of those bodies with
the Methodist Episcopal Church, the
Rev. G.. G.. Logan, colored, Of the Upper
Mississippi Conference, introduced n
resolution in the General Conference
to-day providing for commission OF
seven, consisting of one bishop, three
ministers and three 'laymen, to be APP
pointed to serve during the ensuing
quadrennium, with similar representa-
tives of the African Methodist Episco.
pal, the African Zion Methodist Epls-
copal and the Colored Methodist Epis-
copal Churches upon such questions as
may lead to more harmonious co-opera-
ton among them and the solution of
their problems.
The resolutions were sent to COM
niittee after a short debate between
several negro delegates, during which
the color-llne was brought into the
discussion.
Along Federation Lines.
When DR.. Logan. who spoke in sup
port OF his resolution, finished, num-
her Of regro delegates sought recogni-
ton. Lay Delegate j. Garland Penn. OF
the Washington (colored) Conference,
got the floor and proposed substi-
tute. An objection to It's presentation,
because 1t was not written In dupli-
cate according to rule, was made by
Secretary Hingely. This precipitated
n parliamentary struggle. which was
finally ended by Bishop Berry, presid-
ing. allowing the substitute to be read.
1t called for the referring of the
question to the commission on fedora
ton, and for work along the lines OF
federation already begun by body
of colored church workers in the
South.
In asking the conference to back
the movement, Delegate Penn said:
1--WE feel superior because of our con-
tact with you, not because you are
white. but because Of your power"
TO Limit Bishops Service.
An important memorial. which went
to the committee on episcopacy. pro-
posed that hereafter an election Of
the Office Of bishop. shall be for term
of twelve years only, without re-elec-
ton.
1t was declared that "the life tenure
of the episcopacy and the honors and
emoluments of the office have begotten
such multiplicity of candidates for
the position as threatens the consecra
ton and unity of our ministerial ranks"
and that "the long continued occu-
pancy Of the Office seems out of har-
mony with the spirit of the itineracy,
and the salary paid the retired seems
to be regarded as an estate earnedl
rather than proper support provided"
After the completion of the bishops
term 1t is provided that he shall become
an effective member of the conference
from which he was elected. Rev. E. A.
Schell and w. E. Carpenter, respective
ly ministerial and lay delegate from
the Northwest Indiana Conference,
sent the memorial UP.
