Want BiShupS.

With the session OF the General Con.
ference OF 4ho Methodist Protestant
Church only month off, sentiment for
the creation OF bishops in that denomi-
nation is being manifested. according
to Baltimore newspapers. Both the
Methodist Episcopal and the Methodist
Episcopal Church South have bishops,
while the Methodist Protestant Church
has always heen opposed to the idea.
When the first talk OF union OF the
three branches was started the bishops
stood as one of the opposing features in
the way. 1t was felt that the senti
ment OF the Methodist Protestant
members would never sanction q union
which provided the continuation OF the
office OF bishop. But for some years
there has been growing sentiment that
there should be some officer who busl-
ness it should be to look after the inter-
ests Of the whole denomination.
