The symposium on Sabbath observ ance held at the Congregational church last Sabbath afternoon under the aus pices of the Young Men's Christian Association was well attended. General Secretary Johnson presided and read several passages of scripture relative to the proper observance of the Lord's day. The singing was under the direc tion of John W. Loder, with Mrs. F, F. White organist. The first add ress was made by Dr. J. W. Cowan, who argued for Sabbath observance from physiological grounds; that man and beast must have a rest day, even machinery had written upon it the demand for the Sabbath day of rest, it is written in our physical con stitution You can borrow God's time but you borrow it upon interest. Man's higher nature demands a day of rest ; we need it for the homes of the land and for the social life of the community. Rev. A. J. Montgomery said the only thing for ua to consider in the discussion of this question was what did God say about it; that God's service in God's way is our reasonable service ; he had commanded us to keep the Sabbath day holy; that the subject of Sabbath observance permitted of the widest ap plication. In this matter as iu others, judgment muBt begin at the God; that Christian people wanted to put a yoke upon the world they were not willing to wear themselves. Rev. M. L. Rugg said one of the best ways to make the people observe the day was by education. They will not keep one day in seven sacred unless we can bring before them certain reasons that will command their respect Not only does man's nature demand a day of rest but the very morality and law and order of the land were intimately connected with the keeping of the Sabbath. The Sabbath is the grandest heratage of the poor man, take it away and he is nothing but a beast of burden. When you have educated the people then agitate, we need to have our minds stirred up by way of remembrance. People do not need so much conversion to keeping the Sabbatb as they do con viction in regard to keeping it ;advocated a righteous law as a proper means of en forcing Sabbath observance, not to compel men to go to the house of worship or to worship at all, but that all who wan to worship shall be protected. Even if people do not want to come into any of our churches they haye a right to a day of rest. FKEK MKTdOimT COSIERESLE. Meeting Held at Hutinyahle Alignment of Ministers for Kiisulug Year. The Oregon annual conference of the Free Methodist church convened at Sun nyside Wednesday, April 24. First sit ting was at 2 o'clock p. m. with Bi-hop B. R. Jones presiding. There was one sitting each day at 9 o'clock in the morn ing with preaching in the afternoon and evening. 1 here were 14 conierence preachers present, 14 local and 10 circuits represented, some local preaciiers having supplied and served circuits the past year. A. II. Norrington, a district elder of the Washington conference, and wife were pie-ent and Rev. A. Beers, of Sent tle, traveling financial agent in the in terest of the F. M. Seattle seminary, was also present and were invited to honary seats in the conference. There were 100 preachers, delegates and visitors present. The business meetings were conducted harmoniously with the love and power of God manifested generally, showing the ability of the bishop presiding. He is a an of God and manifests it in business transactions as well as in preaching. The congregations were very large although there was not room for all to be seated in the evenings. After ordaining three ministers to the office of deacons Sunday morning, the bishop preached a powerful sermon from the text: "Fur the kingdom of God is not in word but in power." It was a sermon that should convince the hearers of the power of God to save from sin. In the afternoon two ministers were ordained to the office ot elders, after which Rev. A. H. Norrington addressed the congregation. In the evening the bishop preached again, which closed the conference for 1897. Rev. A. Beers raised nearly $100 for the Seattle school. Sunday night there was a small collec tion taken to purchase a large pulpit hymn book as a present from the con ference, the balance to be given to the pastor of the church at this place. There was no collection taken for expenses of the conference, the people of Sunnyide did that gratituously and cheerfully.
