Atlanta.-For the first time in the
history Of Presbyterianism, the four

ice. Participating were more than S.0oo

of the United States.
Presiding over the communion service
which was impressive in its simplicity
were DR.. J. S. Lyons, DR.. R. N. Russell
and DR.. J. T. Stone, m~oderators of the
Southern, United and Northern assem-
hlies. A brief invocation of divine bless
ing, and the singing of psalms was fol
lowed by an address by DR.. Russell, In
which he laid especial emphasis upon the
significance attached to the union com
munion service as the forerunner Of ulti
mate union Of the whole church. A
prayer by DR.. Lyons and pronouncement
of the benediction by DR.. Stone ended
the precedent-bresking service.
An interesting feature was the adop
ton by the Northern assembly Of 4
resolution presented by the COMMITTEES
on Christian life and work, bearing di
rectly upon the divorce evil" and max
ing recommendations for the enactment
of uniform legislation on marriage ant
divorce.

OTHERS SAY POOR
TIME WAS SELECTED
Would Consolidate Merely to
Increase Their Own
Power

WASHINGTON, May l3.-The Re
publican get together" conference in
Chicago, was derided by house Bull
MOosers today, and. in measure. de-
Tended by the regular" Republicans.
The socalled reorganization har-
mony meeting. at Chicago. indicates
that the men calling themselves pro-
gressive Republicans admit the funda-
mental reason for the existence OF me
new Progressive party said Repre-
sentative Hinebaugh, OF Illinois. one
of the Moose leaders. The meeting
indicates the irreconciliable diner
ences in the old party. The only
course for the progressive Republi-
cans Is 10 come into the Progressive
party. | am firmly convinced they
will eventually do just that thing.
Republicans in the house OF the So
called "re.actionary' faction said that
the Chicago meeting could do no
harm and might heal factonai
wounds
1t Is not the time TO attempt Re
publican organization, SAID Repre-
sensitive Moore, Of Pennsylvania, for
mer secretary OF the Republican Con-
sressional committee, although II Is
to be expected ;nat men or many
minds i'm the party will shortly confer
with the view of reaching some under
standing. | don't know Of any social
ed standpat Republicans that are not
ready to reorganze the party, but
many object 10 being forced into a
reorganization upon the ground that
they were crooks or had been unfalth-
fu to the rank and file OF the party
"All the trouble thus far in the par
" has grown out OF pretenses OF pur-
ity on the one hand and unfair and
unwarranted accusations on the other.
A sitting process must be gone
through 10 find out who the real Re-
puhlicans are. 1t will do no harm for
various elements Of the party to get
together even in factional way with
the view OF an ultimate reunion.
The insurgents are finding out
day by day that they don't amount TO
much on their own hook and eyince
a greater desire TO get back than the
old-line Republicans are to have
them back"
Aside from the differences OF party
organization. very little indeed divides
the Republicans who met at Chicago
from the Progressives In the Progress
sive party" said Senator Poindexter,
of Washington.
THE illogical position of these men
attempting to work with the regular
Republicans is becoming more and
more in evidence and their position
is bound 10 become increasingly dir-
ficuIt as the special session advances.
