Chelsea, VT, Oct 26, 1903.
Dear Christian Friends;--
-Four years ago this 26th OF October,
received a letter from the committee OF
this church extending to me a call to be-
come your pastor. The years have come
and gone and many happy days have
come TO me. It has been a goodly fellow
ship, our common service OF our blessed
Lord.
To you have gisen the strength of the
hest years of my ministerial life. In low
ing service have not spared myself but
have been glad to spend and be spent.
Without stint have worked for the good
of all classes in this community and for
the glory of God. That the blessing Of
the Master has attended our effort Ne
may confidently and gratefully believe.
Mistakes Of judgment and failures Of wis
dom have been made we cannot but
know. That have wilfully done injury
to the church of God or the Christian dis
ciples Of the Master, refuse to believe.
For several months and more especially
during the past few weeks ii has been
borne in upon me that for the best good
of the kingdom Of God in this communi-
ty and for my own spiritual peace Of
mind and courage for Christian service il
would surely be for the best that resign
the pastorate Of this church and seek an
other field of service for the Master. /
now, therefore, resign my pastoral rela-
tion with you to take effect Nov. 80.
Gratefully mindful of past Christian
courtesies on the part Of this church,
earnestly ask that early action may be
taken in this matter for our mutual profit
and peace Of mind and for the good OF
the kingdom Of our Lord and Master,
Jesus the Christ.
/ an yours in the fellowship OF the
Gospel George Edward Lake.

nominated as his opponent III the pres

thousands that in its noisy welcome
and continuing enthusiasm recalled
some of the scenes of convention week.
The president, switching from his
purpose to discuss the conservation of
natural resources in his Denver speech,
elected instead TO take up the coTRor

tariff bill and to defend'-ft as against.

Best Form of Tax.
The president last night declared
that the corporation tax was in itself
the best form Of income tax that could
be levied, and pointed out that it con
tanned many of the best features Of
the income tax law of England. In
urging that the states should vote for
the amendment to the constitution per
hitting the levy of direct income tax
without apportioning the proceeds
among the states according to their
population, the president declared that
it would be possible so TO amend the
corporation tax as to include within
its scope every desired feature of an
income tax except the levy on incomes
derived from actual salary and profes-
sional services.
Sfntcs His Reasons.
The president said he opposed di-
rect income tax except i'll cases of
emergency, and he believed it TO be
prime fault in the federal constitution
that no provision is made for a direct
levy to meet war time or other extra
ordinary expenses.
