SUBSTITUTE FOR
THE ELECT INFANT
CLAUSE ADOPTED
AND IS REFERRED TO PREosY-
TERlEs BY SOUTHERN PRES.
ENTERTAIN ASSEMBLY.
RESOLUTION PROVOKEs DEBATE
Sunday School Literature Gomez In
for Considerable Discussion--Many
Matters of Importance Receiving
Consideration by the Delegates.

BRISTOL, Tenn, May 22.-The
general assembly of the Southern
Presbyterian church today disposed
of the discussion over the elect in
FAINT clause by adopting ana referring
to the presbyteries for their ratifica-
ton. substitute for the elect infant
clause of the confession of faith.
ine resolution carrying the proposed
suo-clause was passed after the most
lively debate of the present session
and after numerous amendments had
been voted down. The assembly final
ly agreed upon form that suited q
large majority Of the commissioners,
which is as follows:
Being elect, all infants that die
in infancy are saved and regenerated
through the spirit Of Christ" etc.
Tic canvass of tho returns from
the rreshyteries made today showed
that substitute in substance the
same as above had failed to receive
a thrce-fourths vote, although the
presbyteries asked for change. The
present elect clause is:
Elect infants dying in infancy are
regeLerated and saved, ETC."
Vigorous speeches were made ON
the subject and various substitutes
were proposed. Some strongly OPP
posed any change, declaring that the
present clause rightly interpreted,
does not teach infant damnation.
Others held that it was susceptible
Of that construction. DR.. F. M.
Woods, of West Virginia, said that
any change would be showing the
white feathers" Ex-Gov. M. F. Tin
sell, of South Carolina; DR.. Jas. I.
Vance, Of Nashville; DR.. e. M. Mon
roe, If Dallas, Texas, and DR.. w. =.
Webb, Of Louisville, strongly urged
the amendment.
With the syllogistic statement, DR..
j. Chisholm, Of Natchez, Miss, op-
posed the statement: "All who are
saved are elect to be saved"
mo man can be elect, who was not
an elect infant.
"All infants who are saved must
be eject infants.
mo elect infant can pass into man
hood and not be saved"
Declaring that the International
graded Sunday school lesson helps
are higher critical a report was made
to the assembly recommending that q
letter be issued urging pastors ana
superintendents against their fur
Their use or the use of such other mat
ter not sanctioned by the publication
committee. This ELECTED much de-
bate and over strenuous protests the
went on record as opposing
the use Of the literature.
DR.. George B. Booth, of New Or
loans, and VIM. Everett, Of Atlanta,
made vigorous appeals against this
action but the resolution was carried
by decisive vote.
One of the most important events
Of the day was the divesting of the
systematic beneficence committee Of
the Tower to nominate secretaries to
and members of the executive com.
mittees and lodge it in a standing
named by the moderator.
There was lengthy debate on this
subject. and the majority for the res
oiution was narrow.
