WasniNGToN, Doc. 9.—At the opening con- forence of the Evangelical ~allisnco this morning Rev. Dr. $torrs’ paper oo the sity of Co-operation in Christian *was reid by Rev, Dr. Chamberiuin, of Brooklyn, Dr. Storrs being itl. The paper alludes to the perils arising from tho misuse of wealth, illiteracy and the estrangemont of many from the church. In the conrse of his paper Dr. Storrs say The groat tWing needed is to gather Wp and concentrate our power. Bishop Harris, of Michigan, said it would be madness to remain divided in this hour of danger. We must be equally op- posed to imperialism and social- ism. The bible, the Sabbath, and liberty of consclence must be de- fended, with Christ as our leader indeed. but with our own active co-operation as well, or we shall go the way ‘of. other nations whe early history has been fair. and promising. The kind of co-operation we advocate is not political. The church and state must be separate, Our common school systemn is the peculiae product of our Anglo- axon christianity, and we must stand for it against the very strong and dangerous attack of ultramontanism, whieh has taken advan- tage of our divisions to banish the bible from itand then, with savage inconsistency, attack it us godless. But we must go deeper. We must seck not only to keep this or that external institution. We must strike at the root of sin in the heart. Co-operation in promoting vital, intenso, persona} pivty is the one great need. In the west in small towns several churches, by their competi- tion. afford a spectacle to make devils laugh and angels weep, and in_cities the need of union is equally great. Our divisions have impoverlshed our love for man, as ultra- montanism often foils* to minister to the want it creates and fosters, and Joaves it to us Protestants to fc id clothe. The church makes a maguificent and imposing show of in;ifnr the poor but it is hollow and unreal.
