STUNTZ, D.D. are realizing it as far as they can. The geographieal extent to which we have realized it is astounding. The word of God has been translated into 430 1an- guages and there are less than 75 million who cannot read the Word of God in their own tongue, 1t is a_marvelous triumph that In the islands of the sea, China, India, Africa, all over the earth, people have traveled to give God's,word to the peo- ple. Men and women have wrought out ¥ whereby they could carry God's to the people. There are sixty sionary societies in Africa who ean h about forty millions people. In China éach province is reached and in Japan and the Pacific islands they are thoroughly touched with the misston- ary impuise, Grand work has been done in Aus- tralia, where there are fine people, “bred to the open and the sky,” and all the result of the world-wide mis- sion work. They are people to be watched for future results. In South America, with the 11 re- publics, the missionary agents have caused the repeal of religious intoler- ance and instead there is religlous lib- erty and 30 of the 35 million are liv- ing under it. The missionary forces did it. 1t you will look over Spain, France and Russia you will see a better order of things, so we are beginning the greatest work all over the world The word of God has been carried in the last twenty years to Thibet and the Phillppines, where before then it was not known. The laws prevented it, and in the latter place eight million people were shut out from the gospel. God blew oft the gates in the Spanish- American war and let in the light. In the last 250 years so has the on- going of God proceeded In affairs of nations that flags of nominal Christian nations are flying over, or the doors are opened by Christlan people, 50 that one hundred million who were pagan are liviog under nations nominally Christian India has three hundred million un- der the flag of one of the greatest Protestant countries in the world. You can't find an island with two hundred people on it not under a Christian country’s flaz. Some of the methods of God are not always to our liking, but the point Is that the king- dom goes forward. What is the equipment to meet this situation? Now we come to our weak- ness. In all this world fleld of eleven hundred milllon we have 18,900 mis- sionaries. That includes all the men and women working under the great missioary countries—England, _Ger- many and the United States. There are 11,000 ordatned missionaries work- ing among that vast number of people. China has 450 million with 80 missiog- ary socleties and not over 4,500 work- ers. China is clamering for education and has formulated. a plan intending to provide free public education for one- quarter of the earth. The mission schools have taught China the advant- age of its new step, and they must furnish the teachers. China has four- teen_schools prepared to furnish the teachers, but there are 58 mission schools there and seven more building But there is the nuecleus, out of which can be seized one of the greatest op- nnities to lead China out of the rrible past Into the new future. The equipment is lacking. In the Metho- dist collere they need 15 more young men teachers, where, with 300 pupils, there are 1.700 wanting admission, and there are not teachers enough or bulld- Ing and equipment to carry om the work. Such cases as three Americans in o province of 9.500.000 and one mission- ary fo 230.000.000 are frequent. The need Is equipment, for men, women schools and libraries for the evanger. izing of the world. He referred to a trip of seventeen days taken into the country with help- ers. during which time they visited nine different eftles where they preach- ed for hours to about 290,000 people In all. They saw 680 converted and thev organized four churches and raised money enough to dulld two. They esger thera for the word of God, and how s=ad it s to think thers are not enourh to carry forth the word.

Follow! the singing of In the Cross of Christ I Glory, Dr. Kautman an- nounced with regret that Dr. Ozora &. Davis of New Britain was unable to be present owing to {llness. He had, how- ever, sent his er o be read by Rev. A. C. Bacon &d.h-u.‘- el of New Britain, and it was heard with marked interest. Rev. Mr. Bacon brought greetings from Dr. Davis and read hls address, which was highly interesting. He said the American people of today are the result of an assimillation of different elements such as never has been wrought out before in the history of humanity. There Is such a thing as an American people, and they feel they form a unique entity and are to he so regarded. There is, however, a marvel- ous mixture of varying elements, After the redskin, the real American s the man in whose veins flows the blood of different end_often antagonistic_races from the old world. In less than @ century has come the American type and people, due to the flowing together of continuous streams of Immlgration. We must remmber that immigration s nothing new here, and it is well to con. sider what has been done with the immigration of the past. A radical change has come over the character of recent fmmigration, which greatly modifies the problem. There is a greatly increased difficulty of as- similation owing to the character of the races now seeking our shores. This is shown at the ports of entry, show- ing that the greater part of the immi- gration comes from southeastern Eu- rope, in one port practically all of it. Drawing a lint in a continental may of Europe from Genoa to St. Peters- burg, and It takes but a glance to show the change in the geographical source of immigration supply. In the north- west Europe Is the fatherland where modern Americans trace their origin, the home of the Scandinavian and Teu- tonic races, the home of those political and peculiar moral sanctions which have been wrought in our political in- stitutions, the home of the religlous systems that grew out of the reforma- tion and survived with the greatest vigor and effectiveness. In the south- eastern section we find difficult _and strange languages, despotic govern- ments and institutions of middie ages, We are tempted to misjudge these people at the outset, and call them the off scourings of Furope. Some of these are representatives of races that boast- ed civilization when our ancestors had passed ecarcely ont of barbarlsm, but they may be backward now. Tit is more important to know that we can give them something than that they can give something to us. They are an economic and soclal asset to us as a people as they thong Ellis Island. The Christian attitude toward them is never that, of contempt or scorn. The Russian Jew comes to us in great numbers, having been under an ‘| arbitrary form of despotic government, unjust punishments and imprison- ments. After vears of that it is easy to understand their position. The same may be applied to the Slavic and sim- {lar races and to the Italian muititude representing a people who have filled out days with the records of Mafia and Black Hand. The great difference is not political 50 much as religious. In peneral we discover that these people belong mostly to the Greek and Roman Cathr olic churches, their religious ideas b ing distinctly ecclesiastical rather than vital, consisting of institutional, loyal- ty. Let us never be unjust to the genius religlous life and activity of these churches. On the other hand, let us not forget that it is possible to give credit for all this ana still appreciate difference between the un- changed institutions of the old church- es and the newer forms which the modern truth and spirit have revealed and that the religious motive and idea is the supreme factor with which we have to deal in the problem of politi- cal assimillation, So the church holds the kep to the situation. What the American church- es do in the matter will determine in the end its issue, In this work pat- riotism and religions motive are knit together in a tie that cannot be brok- én if the problem be solved at all. This is illustrated in the way atheism and anarchy are united in the teach- ings of the Bohemian infidels. He told of the two doctrines as taught in Illi- nois and Ohio. The political bearing of these doctrines is shown in the an- REV, JOHN COLEMAN ADAMS, D.D. archist clubs, as the result of which President McKinley was shot. ® The time has come for the church to begin to do with some measures of statesmanship and devotion the great patriotic work to which she is called. The united Christian people must move in this with speed and wisdom, Evangelizing and Proselyting. We are asked, however, are not these people Christians and = why disturb them with a new doctrine, and is not this a call to become mere proselyters? These questions are the result of an age which seeks to give to every man the liverty which it claims for every man. No Protestant doubts that there ls eternal truth beneath the creeds of the church of immigrant, but there is no man who knows all the facts ful- iy, ans is true to the conclusions to be drawn, who does not know beyond any' doubt that to the vast malority of the baptized and confirmed members of these churches the essential mean- ing of the gospel of Christ and of “hristian religion as we understand them is not known Their religiop is essentially ecclesias- tical. If the gemeral idea that one's sriest and penance gains pardon, then the justification of the spirit from sin through faith in a Divine Redeemer cannot find a place in the life, Christ sent men to preach the gos- pel and not to give mames or create parties, If we make the matter of evangelization first and are loyal to it CASTORIA.

A., where personal service can count, The afternoon sesslon closed after a hymn and benediction by Dr. S. H. How v The Church and the Labor Proslem. Again at the evening service the congregation was a large one, the ser- vice beginning at 7.45 with an organ prelude by Frederick W. Lester, organ- ist of ‘the church. The pastor, Rev. S. Worcaster, read a shord Psalm an prayer was offered by Presiding Elder Rev, J. H. Newland of the Methodist church. A hymn, Oh for a Heart, pr: ceded the scripture reading by Rev. A. Northrop, #fter which Rev. Mr. Worcester made the announcements, and then presented Rev. Orrin P. Gif- ford, D. D., of the First Baptist church, Brookline, Mass., for an address upon The Church and the Labor Problem. This was & masterly presentment of the subject which charmed his hearers, strongly arraigning present conditions and sounding the keynote that the la- br.r problem was an economic question, the relation of the man to the mud under his feet, and its solving lay in guaranteeing equal opportuities for all men. ning first what he meant by the churkh, the speaker sald that Christ came with a call, and at his going turned over this call to his liitle groug of followers. the church of Christ. Wherever these disciples went with thelr call and mea heeded it, churches were formed. The prism 5f den mina- tionalism hadn’t divided the light into the seven fold beauty of Baptist, Con- regationalist, Methodism, or any other sm. So by the church in the early times was meant the men and women who had heard and heeded the call of Jesus Christ; and that is what we mean by the church—all the men and women in Norwich, in Connecticut, in the world who have received and heed- ed the call of the Christ, the new tes- tanfent conception of the church. The labor problem, he continued, is an economic one, the relation of man to the material universe, and that is the best form of government which gives a man the best chance. The 'e- bor problem is simply the way of re- lating the man to the raw material, » relnting the man fo the raw mater that his condition shall be fair. The | strength of a republic comes not from its poor or its rich, but out of the gr middle class, and the question is how to get the man into such economic conditions that he can provide for those that he brings into the wo: Presenting some striking figures of the control of capital and the pavment of taxes by the rich and the poor in England, where one in twenty dies in the poorhouse or an Institutio Gifford asserted that the lepros old England was in the blded of Pngland and the English problem will be but child’s play to ours If the spreading out of individuals tp contrsl immense tracts of land isn’t stopped.
