CANDIDATES FOR
THE BISHOPRIC
Many Worthy Asplrants In Race
For the Coveted Position.
CLAIMS OF REV. NJ N. POHTON

Grave Issues Which Confront the Gen
erai Conferences Of the A. NJ. &.
Church at Its Meeting In Kansas
City, No. In May, 1e12-Ths situa-
tien Stated.
Jackson, Miss-The approach OF the
general conference of the African
Methodist Episcopal church. Ike all
epoch making events, evokes much
discussion as to the issues TO be de-
cided and the men to be honored
There is no getting around the fact
that the general conference Of the At
rican Methodist Episcopal church in
legislating for a great church and
elcvating men to positions of trust
and honor is one of the truly great
meetings held among AfrO-Americans
II looks like four or five bishops to
meet the growing demand caused by
the expansion of the church on the
one hand and the death and inability
"f several bishops on the other. There
is large number of men in the church
whu could Oil the episcopacy or any
other oGfice with credit and honor, and
many of them are being constantly
mentioned in connection with that Of
fice.
In order that the country at large
might be Informed from time to time
Of the trend Of events as they begin
to shape themselves for this epoch
making meeting, it might be well to
give to the public from time tC time
observations and conclusions male by
constant contact with Influential per
sons throughout the south. There are
many men in the field, but it is not
the purpose Of this article to deal with
them all at this writing.
There is no more trying service In
our racial life than service in a Chris
tian organization. To be sure there
are certain compensatiOns - mostly
spiritual-that the individual gets from
the knowledge Of a work well done in
behalf Of his people. There is one man
In the heart Of the south prominently
mentioned for the bishopric In the A.
II. 2. church whose merits and capa-
bilities are well worth considering.
This man has done something which
alone goes a long ways toward favor
able consideration. He comes from the
premier state Of Mississippi. where Ne
groes do things.
II the church is seeking men who
are able to create and develop things
that are lasting and enduring, n. N.

house and q church to church canvass
throughout the southern country with
the open Bible. teaching Bible morals
and Bible spirituality to all Of our
people and endeavoring to popularize
that sacred book and make its teach
ing familiar to preachers, Sunday
school and public school teachers
everywhere.
The success Of many ministers Of
the gospel who are now in the public
eye can be traced to his efforts. and
as president OF Campbell college his
work and worth are appreciated In
both the states Of Mississippi and
Louisiana as that Of no other man
who has held the position. There are
other men who are aspirants for the
high honor. there are other men who
are equally worthy. but surely this
man has claims that cannot be gain
said and which win bring forth a
happy response.
