Convention at St. Louis, MO.
/ notice my name among those calling
the meeting of Freethinkers and liberal
minded folks to be held at Saint Louis on
the 14th instant. l regret that business
and official duties q am postmaster) rem
der it inconvenient, if not impossible, to. be
there, bat I trust and believe the meeting
will be largely attended and by those much
better qualified than myself to participate
in such meeting and effect the proposed
organization.
1t is not my understanding that it is the
purpose of this movement either to dis
parage or suppant or to supercede exist
ing anti-orthodox organizations or societies,
but rather to unite these into a national
body for better and more effective coop
GRAFTON. What we want is national. state
and local organization on a working basis,
under constitution and bylaws, the pur-
pose being to promote and encourage Free
thought and the right of free speech and
publication Of honest views; to promote
morality and humanitarianism to educate
the public in real truth and to discourage
superstition.
Our organization must be broad enough
to take in and welcome all who claim the
right of private Judgment to think for them
selves on any and all subjects and who do
not believe in prosecution and ostracism of
those who differ from them.
We want to keep alive the doctrine that
civil government is secular affair, and that
there is no connection between church and
state; that religion is personal and indi-
vidual matter; that men are answerable to
their own conscience, and not to somebody
else for their belief and practices where
their conduct and practices do not injure
or interfere with their fellow citizens and
are not contrary to the civil law.
Let us all belong to the national organ
ization, but to as many independent local
societies as we wish. I send you a dollar
to assist in defraying Incidental expenses
or for what ever other purposes you think
proper to apply it,
Hoping the meeting may be harmonious
and result in something of lasting good,

rational VeWS( instead or indirectly Oy
substituting science) must be attributed to
the Indifference of great many people
against everything not directly connected
with the gain of money, who find it more
convenient in all other matters to follow
the majority. Many of these people, who
principally belong to the class generally
called Cuisines men" might be reached
by literature not exclusively confined to
the discussion of abstract philosophical and
religious topics, treating matters of common
interest in a manner insinuating the de-
sired deductions. 1t is impossible to write
literature to suit everybody, unless it con-
sist of common everyday matter or plati-
body possesses, and not to discerning rea-
son, which is not such universal attribute,
the number of people who still believe the
crude stories of the bible with their attend
and barbarous morals, l believe is not so
great among the educated classes but they
have replaced the convenient belief in a
providence by no less convenient fatalism,
maintaining that social institutions regulate
themselves easy excuse for cowardly in
activity and cloak for their small individ-
ual egotism. We know that nothing happens
by its own initiative; that all progress IS
the work of man, springng from knowledge
of nature and the unalterable conviction
which truth engenders in the human mind.
Such work consists in selecting from the
great mass of facts established by science
the main principles and demonstrating how
they apply to our affairs. It's value should
be estimated by the extent to which it
fulflls this useful mission, but there is a
tendency to devote too much time and
energy to speculations on obstruse theo-
retical questions whose solution is either
impossible or could not be Of the slightest
thought publications believe are occupied
too much with the pursuit of scientific
"will-o '-the-wisps' and dead issues of the
past and for this reason fail to attract
the public attention which opinion seems
to be eorroborated by recent literary events.
At the beginning Of this year there appeared
in a magazine number of articles giving
the opinions of teachers at higher educa-
tional institutions about the orthodox tenets
of the Christian religion, which attracted
general attention and were discussed in the
daily press as something new and radical
and yet they contained nothing that had
not been published and discussed for years
by the liberal press. This passed unnoticed
because the same subject has been discussed.

l regret deeply that circumstances pre-
vent re from attending gathering of men,
whose intellect and character place them
in the foremost ranks of good citizens, and
among whom 1 would meet sympathetic
spirits and comrades at arms of the ire
sistably conquering army of progress. If
good wishes were of any benefit the success
of your meeting would be assured and |
hope that those whose indefatigable efforts
have started the work of organization may
see its realization as a well merited reward.
Having been a believer in nature, which
means truth, all my life and having pro-
mulgated the new ideas to the extent of
my, laas! too limited opportunities, do
not think it presuming if l desire to offer
a few suggestions in regard to the subject
that has brought you here, hoping they
may be useful in devising plans for carry
ing ont the great work we have undertaken.
The question is how to convey the new
truth about man and nature, which has
caused such wonderful improvement of
mans existence within brief historical
period, to that part of our fellow citizen,
which still clings to the old erroneous creed
of religion and in this ignorance remains
in a state of barbarism, little above, and
sometimes even below, the intellectual
plane of the animal. There are two ways
Of doing this:
First, by example
Second, by teaching either through the
written or spoken word.
Concerning the first method, it would be
casting reflections upon those present even
to doubt that their endeavors in this direo-
ton were not beyond reproach. 1t can not
be said however, that this fattering as
sumption applies TO all Freethinkers with
out exception, there are some who prove
that person may be free from all religious
prejudice and yet entertain Others that are
nearly as bad,-but they are not here.
In regard to the second method Of spread
ing the gospel, it must be remembered that
it means the application Of human energy
in certain direction and since this is
effected in our complicated system of di-
vision of labor by means of money, success
depends upon the procuring of this indis-
pensable factor first and next on its proper
use. There exists a peculiar reticence in
respect to this vital question in connection
with endeavors that have for an object the
uplifting of mans intellect and morals.
While considered self-evident that all
efforts to enhance the glory of an assumed
deity, supposed to be almighty, requires
money to direct the energy of his humble
creature to this unnecessary purpose, while
immense sums are expended for worthless
enterprises and demoralzing pastimes, it is
almost impossible to obtain pittance for
the useful task of promulgating the achieve
