Mr. Willett Says the Herronic Mind Resembles a Slip- pery Eel. The Baptist ministers listened to a paper on “Herronism,” by Rev. M. Willett of Pilgrim Congregational Church, East Oak- land, yest The speaker said he was going to consider somewhat critically the attitude of those who seem to think that they are justified in taking the minor things in Herronism withoutany reference | to the major, and dismiss the whole matter either with no reference whatever to the grounds of difference at issue between the professor and the evange 1churches, ora reference, if made at all, in no proportion to the exigency of the situation. The whole matter, according to Rev. Mr. Willett, ‘“‘resolves itself into a question of the point of view, and one of the strange ironies of the conflict is this, that the very men who say the most about the point of view are those who, in my opinion, having eyes, see not, and having ears, hear not the conclusion of the whole matter. “] have been through Herron’s works and marked the many excellent things on which, in the main, we are all at one with im. “Fhe whole question turns right here: What is the head and what is the tail of | Herronism? Now, what is the nature of the Herronic mind ? Ishe as slippery as an eel, which the tighter you grasp it the | further it slips, and also to be as_vague as afogbank shot through with dim moon- Jight? You cannot expect to find Her- ron's socialism in crystallized form, but in solation. Take his lectures and read 0 them through, and see how this claim that Herronism is socialism in solution falls in with what you find in the lines, and evi- dently even more between the lines. * We need a deliverance from the present intolerable anarchy of human conditions,” he said in his first lecture in Oakland. ‘Society,” he says, ‘is moving quickly to- ward revolution, but it is revolution from anarchy to order.’ “Qur present order at its best then is nothing but tyranny and slavery, and so- ‘ ciglism is to bring us from political athe- ism to the kingdom of God. This is very evidently the socialistic ideal as nearly as Herron is capable of gra: it. It seems to me we cannot safely say i anything less than revolution.” The speaker then commented on Herron's ideal Christian state, and gave it as his own opinion that: “There ought not to be a unity of the church with the state. If we cannot trust such politics as we have | 10 organize the religion of the people, we can none the better trust such religion as we have to organize the politics of the people.” .In the discussion which followed a great many of the ministers said they had found much to approve of in Herron’s teachings, but every one had also found much to dis- approve of. Socialism of Moses, ““If Moses came down into San Francisco to-day. I do not think he would indorse all | that Professor Herron has said, but I do | think he would say there was something i st radically wrong with onr social system | Itwasina paper on “The Socialism_of Moses” that Rev. J. C. Smith made this statement before the Presbyterian Minis- | | ters’ Association yesterday. The paper urged that Moses’ idea was always to ad- | vance the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man, and that he was a modern socialist only in his belief that earth and sea and were to be used for the good of all. Said the speaker: “A thousand years before Plato reveled in idealism, and 1500 years before Christ laid the basis of all true societies in_the law of fraternity, and of self-sacrifice, Moses drafted a social code. He, too, made ethics and religion the universal groundwork of all jurisprudence.” The speaker then showed how the pene- tration of Moses had guarded against the possibility of syndicates acquiring acres of land, had protected the farmer, and had put no premium on city property; and he added that the reason why the California farmer is getting pushed to the wall is that rent does not riseand fall in propor- tion to the yearly product. | " “Moses said “The poor will always be in the land,” but I know of nolaw kinder than the Mosaic law for dealing with | poverty. A poor man was respected too | much to be offered charity, and poverty | became a disgrace only whena man re- | fused to be put on his feet again.” | _In the discussion on the socialism of Moses Dr. Scott said that a man who prac- ticed the golden rule could not enter into competition with his neighbors. Dr. Mackenzie rather threw cold water | on socialism by asking the othe: %&”‘C‘“’“ if they bad land, and adding “Will you divide with us?” Rev. Mr. Stewart said it seemed to him | that Moses recognized the rights of pri- | vate property, Rev. Mr. Clark regretted | that some of the ministerial brethren were | afraid of the word socialism, and Dr. Rice said he believed Professor Herron had | been sent by God to the churches. | Dr. Alexander startled the brethren by | saying if the Government got control of | everything a reign of corruption would | begin such as the world has never seen, { and Dr. Ellis said he did not believe in the state governing the affairs of private in- dividuals. At the conclusion of the discussion an [ ;dm“nmd meeting of the presbytery was | held. The clerk read a call from the French | Reformed Church to Rev. E. J. Dupuy, who has been acting .as stated supply. The annual salary mentioned in tbe call was $200. A motion was made that $100 of sal- ary should appear in the minutes. Rev. E. J. Dupuy accepted the call and made a brief speech. Arrangements for the in- stallation will shortly be made. The following letter was read from Kan- sas City, Mo., to the Presbytery of San Francisco: Dear brethren, under no circumstances re- ceive into the Presbyterian denomination Rev. W. P. George, Methodist from Seattle and Kansas City, until you hear from Presbyterian ministers of Kansas City and Seattle. Yours fraternally, JAMES A. P. McGAw, CHARLES H. BRUCE, ARUTHERS, W ELTZ, H. STANTON. | | | | | [ [ | | sions consisted of the Revs. Smith, Farrand, Coss, Hume, Irwin and Kerr. The Pres- bytery then adjourned. Congregational Missions, Deacon I. H. Morse read a paper on “Missions’” yesterday afternoon before the Congregational Club. A number of sta- tistics were given, and the deacon urged his brethren to appoint a day for the sim- ultaneous taking up of missionary col- lections. Captain Walkup of the missionary ship Horace Bingham, that plies to the Gilbert Islancs, enlivened the discussion on ways and means for foreign missions by saying: “There’s more heathenism in San Fran- cisco than in the Gilbert Islands. We have & King who is not a Christian, but he bas a Christian cabinet, and he has just made a law against the use of tobacco. The committee appointed on home mis- | | I have four Christian boys with me, and I | am ashamed to take them around and let | them see how many saloons there are | here.” Captain Walkup said he approved of | each church support itself, and uttered | a word of protest against the exactions of | the Hawaiian Bourd which had ceased to i do anything for the Gilbert Islands but still demands dues from them. The discussion was followed by an ex- officers were elected: President, Rev. Philip Coombe; secretary and | treasurer, Rev. T. H. Henderson; executive | committee — Captain W. F. Cook, Rev.

The annual diocesan convention of the Episcopal church will open in Los Angeles, | in St. Paul’s Church, on the 14th inst., and | will probably remain in session four days. | The important question of creating a | southern diocese will be discussed. mission of the Good Samaritan has only | just passed, the work is already in such a | lourishing condition that arrangements | are being made to move to a more con- | venient site and to build. | The Oakland Presbytery has organized a ministerial association.

Nickolaus Becker Leaves $100,000 to His Sisters to Be Distributed After Five Years. | The will of Nickolaus Becker, who died | on April 26,1895, has been filed for probate. | It disposes of property valued at $100,000, | consisting chiefly of realty in this City. The testator, after appointing John B. Laniger and John Pforr executors and de- claring that he has neither wife nor child, | bequeaths his property in one-sixth divi- | sions as follows: One-sixth to his sister | Marianna Herwig, residence unknown; one-sixth to the children of his deceased | brother, Ferdinand, of this city; one-sixth to the children of his sister, Antonia Fer- risch, of New Jersey; one-sixth to his sis- | ter Valporia Heimerle of Westminster, C.; one-sixth to his sister, Magdalena Becker, of Boston; one-sixth to his sister, Sophia Becker, also of Boston. articular provision is made that there shall be no distribution of the estate until | five years after testator’s death, and should any of his sisters die without issue in the interval her or their share is to be dis- tributed among the other devisees. The testator also asks that his body be kept sufficiently long to be absolutely cer- tain that death has occurred. The will was dated December 15, 1892, and wit- | nessed by Joe Poheim and J. George | Schaeffer. The executors have petitioned for the probate of the will, ———————————— A Poisonous Mist. ‘This fitly describes miasma, & vaporous poison which breeds chills and fever, bilious remittent, dvmb ague, ague cake, and in the tropics deadly typhoid forms the fever.

Among those present were Messrs. | Mathews, Robinson, Pissis, Latimer, Emerson, Sparks, Mrs. Hudson, Mrs. Virgil Williams, Mrs. William Davidson, Mrs. Baldwin, Mrs. J. M. Gamble, Mrs. Daniel Bixler, Mrs. F. M. Pixley, Miss Bender, Miss Alice Chittenden, Mrs. Eva Withrow, Miss Emily 8. Ryder and Miss Rose Lewis. After calling the meeting to order Mr. Phelan stated that it is proposed to close the exhibition aboutthe 21st of this month, and that it had been suggested, as a means of bringing the artists who had exhibited pictures in the salon and the lay members of the art association together, that the artists hold a reception at which only members of the association be invited. He said that the directors would furnish music and refreshments, and thought that | the members ought to know the artists | and should appreciate the fact that the pictures are not only on exhibition but are for sale. He added that there are a great many people here who admire art, as was eyinced by the spirited contention at the Johnson sale. Mr. Sloss nominated C. D. Robinson for the office of president. Mr. Robinson asked for suggestions, but for a time no one arose. At last Mr. Mathews asked how | cost, and when he was informed b, tary Martin that the amount was suggested that this part of the en Piielt b8! dispensed. money be placed ina fund with which to purchase pictures to be distributed among subscribers. Mr. Pissis suggested that the members of the association subscribe §5 each to the fund, and that the pictures be distributed to the subscribers by lot, as is done by the Societe des Amis des Arts in Paris. . Mr. Phelan suggested that it might be in order to get up a souvenir book of the occasion, in which by some process the best exhibits might ge reproduced. He 160, he picture-purchasing fund. It was finally decided that there should be a picture fund, a reception, music and refreshments, and Mrs. Bixler suggested that there might be living pictures, such as had been presented before the Century Club under the direction of Miss Withrow. The following were named a committee on entertainment: John A. Stanton, Emil Pissis, Miss Mary Froelich, Miss Eva Withrow, A. F. Mathews, Mrs. Sarah Gam- ble and Mrs. David Bixler, Mr. Pissis wanted to know if it would not be a good idea to have a room in the institute set apart for artists in which they could have art literature and catalogues of salons. Mr. Phelan gromised to bring this mat- ter before the board of directors. e _The entertainment will probably be given on the evening of the 22d of this month. ———— Abraham Powell’s Estate.

Sixteen Milllon Pounds of Coal and Four Hundred Cords of Wood Required. The United States Quartermaster’s De- | partment of the Pacific Coast has adver- | tised for proposals for furnishing wood and | coal at Alcatraz Island, Angel Island, | Benicia Barracks, Fort Mason, Presidio, San Diego Barracks and San Francisco, during the fliscal year beginning July1, 1895. The bids were all in May 1and in a few days contracts for 341 cords of kindling wood and 16,900,000 pounds of coal will be formally disposed of. This is one of the largest contracts ever | offered by the Government on this coast, and means the distributing of nearly $100,000 in San Francisco, as it is generally | thought that all the contracts will be let to | parties here. The quantities of coal re- | quired at each post or station and the amount in whigh each guarantor of the bidders shall justify are as followsy Alcatraz Island, 1,500.000 pounds. ‘Angel Island, 2,000.000 pound: Benicia Barracks. 2,000,000 po Fort Mason, 1,000,000 pounds Presidio, 6,000.000 pounds. . San Diego Barracks, 250,000 pounds. San Francisco. 1,700,000 pounds. . . 1800 Steamer General McDowell, 1,750,000 pounds 1800 700 Pumping Works, 700,000 pounds.............. In disposing of these contracts prefer- ence is given to articles of American pro- duction, and particularly to such as are produced on the Pacific Coast. The Re- | vised Statutes, section 3711, says: It shall not be lawful for any officer or person in the civil, military, or naval | service of the United States in the Dis- trict of Columbia to purchase anthracite or bituminous coal or wood for the public service | except on condition that the same shall, before delivery, be inspected and weighed or meas. | ured by some competent person, to be ap- | pointed by the head of the department or | chief of the branch of the service for which | the purchase is made. The person so appointed | shall before entering upon the duty of in- | spector, weigher and measurer, and to the saf isfaction of the appointing officer, give bond, with 10t less than two_sureties, in the i sum of $5000, and with conditions letpee:‘cnh Iy ton of coal weighed by him shall consi 2240 pounds, ufd that {lch cord of :ogsll?:) gé so measured shall be of the standard measure of 128 cublc feet.

APPEALS ARE DENIED, A United States Court Hands Down Two Decisions. The United States Court of Appeals handed down two decisions yesterday covering cases in Washington and Oregon which had been brought to the attention of the court. Dexter Hatch appealed from the decision of the Superior Court of Seattle, ‘Wash., wherein E. C. Fergeson had carried a suit to substantiate the right of the widow of Ezra Hatch to dispose of certain claims in a pre-emption right, and which had eventmflg been taken to the Circuit Court of the United States for the District of Washington on a plea of error, where the judgment of the lower court was affirmed. udges McKenna, Hawley and Gilbert co find no errorin the decision of the court appealed from and returned an opinion sustaining the court below. The appeal of Malvin Short on behalf of the heirs of Marshal B.
