 to Delegates.

yened yesterday ill the First Presby- terian church and was presided over by Rev. Paul G. Preston, of Clarks- vile, who was unable to reach here on the opening day.
 The program as printed ill yester- days Graphic was followed and the interest and enthusiasm manifested was very gratifying to the officers and those present. The number of visitors in attendance. while not so large, was a pleasure and it is hoped that others will take advantage of the oportunity% of attending, as the pro- grams from day to day will prove very interesting and entertaining. and all are welcome.
 One of the most interesting num- bers on the program at yesterdays meeting was the address of Dr. J. T. Molloy, missionary, who has spent ten years in Mexico, being stationed at Aguscalientes, where he had many opportunities of gaining a keen insight into conditions. While he las been absent from the troubl- ed Republic for year now, yet he has kept in close touch with affairs and speaks of conditions with first hand knowledge. Dr. Molloy com plimented President Wilson's policy ill dealing with the Mexican situa- dion and declared that Huertn. s'regme must come to disgraceful end ill time. He gave resume of the work accomplished by the Christian En- deavor in Mexico and of the influence exercised by Protestant schools and churches in the uplifting of the masses.
 Dr. Molloy, whose subject was Present Conditions in MeXico,' said:
 The MeXicans take heartily to the Christian Endeavor and our schools and missions are accomplishing much toward dissipating the supersti,u- tions and old traditions of the re- public."
 Speaking on the political affairs of Mexico, Dr. Molloy said that Huerta's administration is doomed to fall; that the provisional presi- dent, in his opinion, was mentally and morally incompentent to govern the affairs of the nation and that he gained his present dictatorship by force of arms and treachery.
 Even the lowest peol in Mexico" continued the speaker, looks upon Huerta's explanation of the death of Madero as a jose. And the refusal or the United States to recognize him as president created profound sen- satlon among the MeXicans, both the hlsher and lower classes. Wilson's acton was a great moral lesson to them.
 The United States has pursued lhe right course toward Mexico. Pre- sldent Wilson is Gods man in the flsh' place. I don't believe armed intervention will be necessary: moral suaslon Will be the lever to raise the cltlzenship of the nation to a higher plane'
 Dr. Molloy said the beginning of the revolution in Mexico was caused py economic disturbances. The vest ing Of all the lands in the hands of 'he few, reducing the greater ma poilly to poverty and peonage caus- ea the downfall of Diaz and the ele- Vatlon of Madero
