Despite a beaut!ful location, cdlifice, and goclal surroundings, the Church was very low. They had Tacked a pastor for more than a year. Now they wanted one. The salary would be smail and the work severc. The eplrit of infldelity was very strong at Sparta. There was aclub of infidels who every Sunday were addressed by s man~—a rank [nfldel—wlio **preached " in the morning and played cards with the young men fnthe afternoon, Something was “needed to counteract the effect of this man’s work.

TIE METIODISTS, 3 ‘The Methodlst minlsters held thelr regmlar Monday morning mecting yesterdoy In_ thelr room in the k Concern Duilding on Washe ington street. Elder Willlug presided, ‘The question for discussion was, ** [low shall we mako our Bunday-schools eficiont in tho salvation of tho & of tho unsaved who at- tend themi" upon'which au cssay was rcsd by the Rev. Dr. 8pencer, In which he held that music was a nccessary nssistant by which cbil- dren were attracted "ta _the Babbath-achool, ns was also a thorough study of the Scriptures, Ho also adverted to the ncccnlt{ of the teachors pecoming acquainted with thelr puplls, e ad- vocated tho visits of tha teachera to the homes .of tho children, and prayor-mectings immedl. ately after the Bundn{-nhool cxorclses were over, as emphasiziog all that has boen done be- fore. Thu conclusion he reachicd was that faith in Jeaus Clirlst was nccessary to mokoa successful Sunday-achool teacher, The Rev, Mr. Patton spoke of tho successfal Sunday-sdhool work which was gotng on fu his chureli, whero all tho teachers had been brought 1o Jesus throuch conversation, The Rev. Mr. Youker stated that the attend- ance at his Bunday-school was from 750 to 1,000, and sometines as high ss 1,100, e gave o brief experience of his manacr of visiting. Ho had made 1,500 calls in ten months, through the children introducing him tothe parents. Ile belleved in tho good work that was being done by the Sunday-schools, but it was powerful hard work, Tha Rev. Mr, Parkburst sald that be belloved that for every soul converted somebody's soul hnd to go down to Gethscmane,—~that Is, that some onc's heart had to bieed. Ho did not think that a model Suverintendent or teachior was necdod Lo carry un & successful Suuday- school, but what wos wanted waa real religious zeal, 'The most vowerful work, he thought, was fu the htart of the individual teachers. The Rov. Mr, McCheanoy said tuat his ex- perience bhad been that rarcly any one was cone verted n the regular coursa of the SBundwy- schiool, unlesa it wus brought about through the uffurts of the pastor and others, e ulluded to the necesaity of Bunday-achicols, but fnsiated uron baving immedisto results. A great deal of the musie iu the Bunday-schools fu vogus nowudays was of the efforvescent, hey-diddle- diddie order, sndatood inthe way of cohveraton, He thougbt it was a mistake to think that those who had passed through tho eraustions of the Bunday-schioal, from the fufaut class up, should come out couverted, The Rev. Mr. Cralts advocated the fuquiry- servica, both {i chiurch and Sunday-school, after the rezular services and exercises. The Rev. Dr. Edwards held that the Bundays school was & part of the church, Ha ald not be- leve in-natural goodoess. He belleved every sinner was a backslider. ‘Tho Rev, Dr. Hatfield belieyed in allowing the Buperintendents to control the Bunday-schouls, oud ho did not belleve in ministers interfesing unneccssarily with them, He bolleved fn hold- {ugg ou to good Bupcrlnlnndems‘ and uot chang- Ing competent mon, Tho greatest amount of wark and the best work was dons by old Bu- verintendents, who had chargze of, Sunday- schools (rom twoto (ve, and even ten; yoars, ;-:‘ie‘r;"o,'m Elders were also presont: Ebel teman, J.

If Ingersoll wers right, every * man’ made his own .god, abrist was an enthusiast, future reckoning a fancy, and Jmmortality s elilmera. This was an ancient bellef, but it had latcly been revived with such violence that 1§ bad earned the new name of Ingersollism.. Important questions of nolitical economy de- pend upon finding the truth or falsity of their doctrine of atheism. To carrry It out logieally ‘we must Lransforin al} placea” of worshlp into warchouses, convert pricats Into pedagogues, B[ the last consus there were 21,500,000 church Mlligsin the United Btates, £354,000,(00 in- vested in chiirch property, and ten tiines as many men dlrccu'v enmuzen‘ fn the cause of religion as were In the regular army. Any such radical changes as proposed by Ingersoll ahould be well considered before being earrfed into cffect. Ile put this phase of the Ingersoll :l\nzpl.lnn falrly before the sudicnce, becauss it irectly afTected yast financial interests. In examining the doctrines of the athelst by thgJight of, history, sclence, and reason, he did not intend fo enter Into anv philosuphical dis- cusslon or investigation of the great questions 1elating to (lod and Christ. Al the arguments on that scoro were known to efery chnrch-:;ucr. In Ingersoll'a lecture on *The Gods,? ho started out with & most pregnant sophism, namely: *“Each natlon has created a God.” ‘The speaker proposed to show the [fallacy of the statement. Webster's Dictionary God as (1) an_ objecct of worship, and (2) “as the ‘Bupreme Being, creator of the universe. 1o also defined the word *“Idol" as an {mage of divinity. Uence, when Ingersoll sald each natfon had created a Qod he really sald each natfon had created a Supreme Being. L he had sald that each natlon created an fdol or object of worship he would hiave been correct. The fallacy lay in the fact that he took advantage of the inade- qmwl)l' of the English langhage, which exorcsscs two differcnt idcas by the use of the singular and plural of the word “god.” Leaving history, Mr. Ingersoll wont to metaphysics, and” claimed that all thoughts, conceptious, wers sucyested by natural vecurs rences, that they were bat reflections of things visible, Grant this statement to be true, it was quite evident that there must bea God. Take all {dcan of heathen idols and they could baresolved into arms and legs, but the one iden of a Su- premie Being could not bo thas limited or de- fined. It was of itself a revelation, By lnger- aull's own reasoning, it must be the reflection of an actusl fact. Athelsts would have tha earth relleved of pain, sickness, famine, nesti- lence, and all evils, But what was thelrremedy for them as cxisting! Thero was no mned{. Furtherinore, they were necessary for the wel farc of the world. Without conflicts in nature and humanity, thera could be no nrogress. Tho world would be faultlessly perfoct, passionless, and endeavorless. Two hundred ycars ago, Ralph Cudworth asked the question: * Were oyes made for the eake of sceing? And were cars made for the sako of hearlngi" In that question lay a tremendous fssue, It was cyldent that the eycs and the ears were de- signcd for particular uses. There was a thought in Lhelr construction. Even supposing that far thousands of years thoso orgaus kad been hin- proving, It was stlil impoesible to lu;zgou for a moment that thoy could bave reached evena development which would enable themn to sce and hesr, however Imperfectly, without some original “desien. The; re%rucnwd thought, and where there was thought before maakind thero must bave been a thinker, The {dea was juyinctble and could not be nr;iucd AWAY. Mr. Wendliug told fn geaphic language the story of the Bible. Christ was the ideal man, and no skeptlc ever lived who denfed that His character was not absolutely perfect. It Is fm- pussible to do fusllen to the really eminent dfc- tion of the lecturer. He kept lis hearers throughout interested, and he was frequently spplauded, and at the conclusion u resolution was passed signed by a nomber of minlaters and others requesting that Mr. Wendling repeat his cffort {n this city at as carly a dato as might be convenicat.

Evils and Inlquities of the Present Sys- tem.--Clty Certificates, War- rants, Etc. The Mavor, Comptroller, Ald. Pearsons, Throop, Rosenberg, and Schwelisthal, of the Finance Commlttee, and the Hon. R. P, Der- “ickson, had a tulk yesterday afterncon at the City-Hall nbout the proposed full cash value asscasment and the financial eftuation. By way of astarter, Al Rosenberg nsked what the Citizens’ As- sociation recummended. Mz, Derickson replied that they had not agreed deflnitely upon snything, but would probably take action thls week. He was not present as ita representative, but by invitation of the Chalrman of the Finance Committee (Pcarsons). e wished to talk on the question of assessments, but the subject was so comore- hensive that he couldn't do it justice in six months. Ald. Rosenberg couldn't seewhat the Financo Cuminitteo had to do with the asseasment. Mr. Derickson sald it had a vractical bearing ou the financial condition of the aity. Ald .Rosenberg desired to sec a change, since the assessment hiad been unjust for ten years. One man's real catote was assessed at 10 per cent, another's at 50, another's at €5, and an- other'snot at all; and the same was trueof personal property. AMr. Derickson remarked that, if tho cbange was made to o fair cash value assessment, there would be something like a falr asseasment, and the question of finance would take care of ftsclf, beenuse the assessment would show such an Income that the city would have no difficulty in fundiog its foating Indebtedness, TRE CERTIFICATES, Ald. Schwelsthal asked i be considered the present certificates, drawn agalnst specific ap- propriations, a floating indebtedness. Mr. Derickson snswered in the afiirmative. The Corparation Counsel,he know, differed from him, but he could not view it In any other lizht thao a debt. Ald, Behiwelsthal—it Is 8 mortgege against tho appropristion, secured by It. Mr. Derickson—The wholo apprupriation is ar asset, & bill recelvable, and the certiticates are o bill payable; one offsets the uther, Ald, Pearsons inquired If Mr. Derickson's point was, if the assessment was made upon thu fnll value of ll;u pml:::!rlt.‘y.’lha bcx:;.!ed in- of the city could be fncreases l‘c;"ltrc.d!'llg:llckwn replted thnt if the valuation was raited, say to 75 or 50 per cent of the actual cash value, the value of property in the Btate would be Increascd ,to §2,000,000,000, aud of that In Cnleago to st least ik;o,(m,noo; and the city could then tssue 3,700,000 bonds, or could take up the floating fndebtedness, or thoe money could by pul to temporary use, us the Council dusired. Cumptroller Farwell—We would be within the limit whother we funded it, or put it into bonded debt, or issucd certiticates {rom year to ear, ¥ Mr. Derickson—It would legalize the system you have becu practlcing. Ald, Throop asked If ather parts of the State would follow if the addition was made here. Mr. Derickson couldn’t say postively, of course, but had no doubt of ft when the peoplo saw the justive of it. 1o then proceeded to ex- plain how utterly absurd snd inconsistent THE PUESENT SYSTAM was, The State Buand of Equalization resolved, when be was & member of it, that in its oplnion e sascesment of thoreal and personal prop- erty in thu State was 00 per cent of {ts cash value. O this busts, Cook County, on realty. as_asssessed originally, stood at B3 per vent, Lake 40, Warren 72, Boone 81, Bangamon 83, De Kalb 82, Ettingham 40, Carroll 45, Logan 00, Bureau 23, Green 84, 8tark 80. These varlutions resulted from the Ignoring by Assessors of the rale laid down by the law—that property should he asacssed at its fair cash value. Ald. Thro;v‘?fl un‘slxrd to kuow how those Bgures were arrived at, '.“v. Derickson—By taking the additions nec- esaary to make up tho 60 per cent, Cook Count liad sdded to the personal property that year per cent, und 82 less 83, the orlginal assessment, would wake withio » fractfon of 00 per cent. On town and city lots Couk stood on the samo basis originully, 38 per cent of tho cash value, DuPage 110, Booue 110, Winnebago 1M, —thus showing the svsuwlity of the figure Axed by the Htate Board; because Do county in thy Blate would certainly go abave 100 per cent,—Burcau 80, Ford 94, [roquals 100, Marshall 103, McDon- ougl 120, Greene 82 The whole system was an absurdity frow beglnning ta end,‘and s sald that after au experiovco of four years In the Boatd. 1f the Assessurs would fullow some rule, whether 1t were 10, 80, or 100 per ceut, thera would bo somie uniformity.

Derickson replicd that the cent man was bonust, and desired to do bis duty, but the 83 per cont man hadn't enough lutegrity in bim to_hold him to bis oath, aud he perhaps wanted to nake bimscll pooular with his oelgh- s ‘The Mayor sald the only thiog to ba dono was to bave tie Asscssors adhicre to the law, Ar., Derickson echoed that Tus Trisons aod i it cugrezed that the recommendation of a full cusb-value asscsstnent was an cffort to CIMCUMVENT TUE CONSTITUTION, - It the Asscesors confurmed to the Constitu- tlon and tue lsw, justice would be done, Ho had examiued fnto the matter, and found that fo some cuuntivs real csiate sold for within § per cent of its assessed value, and in some citles outslde of Cook County that the cash value of the persopal ;muacrl‘yl alone was equal to the asseased value of all the pruperty, personat and real. Tn Hamilton County It was Jound tbat the horses were worth more thao the cotlre assesecd value of the persvual pruperty; fn Kasue Coun- ty, shat was trua of cows. Even after tho widi- tlons of e State thers were vuristious, {u maoy nstavces, of 100 pur cent, Horees In Couk would stand assessed at $50, fn adjuinlog countles at #3; mules fn Chicago at $it4, {n McHeury $34, in Kunkakee $EL° These varfa. tivus ran through the cutice State. The Mayor weutloued vue trm in Chicsgo whosu lnveutory shiowed thewr stock was worth £375,000, yel they Were wsscased at ouly §30.000, Mr, Denchson rewmarked that, out of 70,000 voters {n Conk County, not over 25,000 pald taxes of any kind. Ald, Rosénberg sald bis information was that there were but 15,000 §n 60,00 Mr. Derickeon . sald the number couldn't be demonstrated mathematically, but, after apend- g sume days fu figuring, Le came to the con- clusion that thers wera ahout 40,000 taxpayers in the county. Taking out the non-residents and the women, left atout 25,000. 1f uniformi- l{ in the assessments could brought about i would ba a great boon to the cvunty, and, Chlago could get more money. The Mayor eald that, outside of nrovldlns legal menns to anticipate the taxes, it woul sdjust the burdens of the public cxpense equit- ably, Taxpsyers, as a role, would not pay as larga a portion as now. 1d. Throop asked, If & falr asscasment was mu’u' whetlier the Stats Board would not be uscless. Mr. Derickson said * Yes,” Ad. Throop went on to say that the low as- sesament was A TREMENDOUS RLOW AT CHICAGO. ‘The full cost value would make the State tax larger, but It would bs better to pay It than have tho stizma u‘mn the city, hecause enough capital would flow In to make up the difference. Mr, Derickson remarked that the troubie was Lo get the urdioary man to understand the ad- vantages of the full cash assessment, Ie men- tinued an Instance. A nelghbor’s property was assessed at §1,100, when, comparad with those around him, the amount should ot have heen more than 865, Ile told kim he was assessed too higb, and to wo to the Asscssoraud tell him, Iie went, and the Aesessor asked nim huw much his property was worth, * (Jpe thousand five hundred dollars,” aatd he. *\Why, you areonly arsessed at 81,100, sald the Assessor; and the man went away satisfied, no doubt conviuced that he;}Dcrl:;kqun) w\! teving to trick him. ‘The Mayor sald thekmall tarpayers would be bencfited Ly the change, since tucy now paid hrnll in excess of their proportion on account of thelr making hunest returna. WARMANTS, The matter of warrants was then touched on, Mr. Derickson saying that he didn't bellese Chicago would ever lasue paper through its properly authorized sgents for value received, and gefault Inits payoent. 1 the tazes were not collected, however, in his opinion, tbe war- rants wouli¥oot be pald. ‘The Mayor sald that they would be pald cventually. The city would never repudiste & «ollar where the money was borrowed and used for corporate purposes. The pcople would nat sanctlon repudiation for a moment. Mr, Derickson remarked that If it went abroad that Chicago would not pay, tho respense would not be lke that which came when the city cried for hely, but such an onc as would ml{:e its flllllnnl bunt their holes 20d pull them {n after 1. Ald. Rosenberg understood (t was the Ecncr- al hellef all over the country that Chicago would not pay. 2 Ar, Derickson—Yes, and it (s hurting Chicago more than the people are uware of. After some further talk, during which the Mayor rald that the taxes would have to be an- ticipated at an cxpense of 25 per cent by the fssue of s:rip, lostead of 6 na under the previous system, it was declded that an_ effort should tade to have the County Clerk call the Asscssors before him, and to have Judwe Wallace instruct them In the law, and tell them what the consequences will Le §f thoy do not make a fair asscsament. As to the market value of the acrip soon to be fssued, Comyptroller Farwell says it will be fixed by the declsion of Judge Blodgett in the wnjunction case. There will, under any clreun- rtances, be a discount, because purchasers must make lulerw., aud this shaviug, the Mayor suys, employes must submit to, since thers is no Lelp for It Interest-bearing warrants can- not be issacd. ————e— MORE WHISKY-SELLERS.
