George w. Thomas, of Clayton, has
gone to Baltimore to represent Clay
ton Circuit at the Annual Methodist
Protestant Conference which convenes
in Starr Memorial Church to-day.
Rev. E. C. Graham, pastor of Ewell
M. P. Church, as we'll as the Clayton
Circuit of which it is a part, will go
down for over Sunday. The three
charges on Clayton Circuit have ex-
tended a unanimous invitation to their
popular pastor, the Rev. Edward
c. Graham TO return for another
year. The Annual NJ. P. Conference
this year will be marked with interest
as it is the time when they elect a
new President from the floor. There
are several names mentioned for the
presidency, among others is that of
Rev. Luther Warner, who was form
erly pastor of the Methodist Protest
ant Church of Dover, in fact built the
church which now adorns the prop
erty. Others are Rev. G. w. Had
daway and Rev. ]. M. Gill. The
conference seems to be settling. how
ever. upon Rev. G. w. Haddaway,
who is the popular pastor of Starr
Church, Baltimore. He has done a
great work in the conference every
where he has been. especially at
Starr. 1t is expected that there will
be many changes this year among the
more prominent charges and preach
ers. especially in the city of Balti-
more. The conference is very inter-
esting, as the Methodist Protestant
Church is the only branch of Method
ism which gives the layman equal
rights with the minister, that being
the foundation of the denomination
and the cause largely Of its great sue
cess. James II. Wheatley is the de-
legate from Dover, and Edward S.
Wilson from LeiDsic.
