The editor of The Press had the
pleasure of a couple days stay in
Gettysburg, our hustling county
seat, over Sunday, and among the
things going on" was the meeting
of the northern Baptist associat'n.
The two most notable features of
this was the resolutions that were
passed aud the addresses of DIR.
Jordan, president of the Baptist
college at Sioux Falls, all of which
we would take as showing the pro-
gressiveness of the Baptist de-
nomination and the fraternal spir-
it of at least two of Gettysburg's
churches. DIR. Jordan preached a
splendid sermon at the Baptist
church in the morning and in
he evening preached again
for the pastor of the M.
E. church. The resolutions
were brief and with the spirit
of the proceedings indicated that
the main creed of our Baptist
brethren was obedience to law.
We regret that we are not able to
giyea fuller account of the meeting
in this issue.
