Who will be the new minister? Is the
latest phase of the controversy In the
First Baptist Church of Portland.
Rev. Alexander Blackburn, over whose
occupancy of the First Baptist pulpit
there has been factional strife for some
time, unexpectedly and In the interests
of harmony, tendered his resignation
at yesterday, morning's gathering of his
congregation. The resignation was a
eepted and the question new before the
First Bsptlst Church of this city is the
serious problem of choosing nis sue
censor.
Rev. Blackburn has been granted a
vacation extending from July I until
November 17. the latter date being the
end of his pastoral year. This vacation
he will accept, and at its termination
will sever his connection with the Port
land church. A rumor that an effort
would be made to recall Mr. Blackburn
to the pulpit iff deecredlted.
It Is announced that during the pe
riod of the regular pastor's vacation a
number of ministers from all over the
United States will be invited to occupy
the First Baptist pulpit here to facili
tate in the choosing of a successor for
Dr. Blackburn. The selection of a new
minister is admlted to be a serious
question, to be determined only after
prayerful deliberation and thorough test
ing of the men who offer themselves to
fill the vacancy.
Deacons Kay Jfot Vacate.
Five of the Baptist deacons, who op
posed the retention of Rev. Blackburn,
had tendered their resignations some
time ego, and these will be voted upon
one week from next Thursday evening.
It Is not believed they will be accepted.
In view of the withdrawal of Dr. Black
burn, admitted to have been the bone of
contention.
At the regular church services yes
terday,. Rev. Blackburn presented his
resignation, accompanied by the follow
ing letter:
"After the most careful and prayerful
consideration that I have been able to
give the subject, the conclusion has been
reached that under existing circum
stances the best interests of all con
cerned will be conserved by the insist
ence on making my resignation now in
your hands final and absolute. I ask
that all unite in such form of accept
ance as shall show the action of the
churcB to be unanimous, and that such
action be taken at this meeting.
"To the church which on two separate
occasions has vindicated my ministerial
standing I cannot express the fullness of
my gratitude. Your loyalty to the prin
ciples of the Gospel and the sacredness
of the ministry of Jesus Christ has
touched my heart and enshrined you
there In a fellowship which neither time
nor space can break. My path may lead
me away from your direct association,
but in my most sacred memories and
most earnest prayers you will be ever
with me.
Wants Peace Xestored.
'This is not the place for many words.
I can, however, do no less than tenderly
and lovingly exhort all who are re
deemed by the precious blood of Christ
and who love Him in sincerity and in
truth, that you bury all in the past
that has caused bitterness, and In the
spirit of the Master seek to forgive and
be forgiven. For more than 12 years I
have been a pastor and five times have
I severed the pastoral relation. It has
been a privilege heretofore to leave a
prosperous, united church. Would to God
you might make it so now. For the sake
of those who bear the burdens, and long
to do' the work of the Kingdom, for the
sake of the young converts who need
the example of right living and peace,
for the sake of the great work and op
portunity that awaits this church in
this great and growing city, for the
sake of the little children who will
grieve at the loss of a friend, and most
of all for the sake of Him who bought
us with His own precious blood, I be
seech you to love and practice right'
oousneas and to have peace.
"And may the blessing of Him who
delights In the righteousness of His
people and In the peace of His people.
and In the prosperity of His own, grant
you according, to the fullness of the
rtehes of Hie grace In Christ Jeeus our
Lord.
Willing Bnt Regretful.
A committee was a pointed, after Mr.
Blackburn's offer to withdraw had been
accepted without a dissenting vote, to
draft resolutions of regret at his de
parture. It Is believed these will be
adopted without objection, no matter
how strongly they are drawn.
The work of the newspapers In pro.
vlding the general public with knowl
edge of incidents and features of the
Baptist Church war. was commented
upon as follows, In a resolution Intro.
duced by N.' J. Blagen, and adopted by
tire congregation:
"Resolved, 5hat whereas, the public
press has published various statements
concerning the difficulties in this church
and whereas, said statements have been
Incorrect and misleading and have been
Injurious to the welfare of this church,
and the cause generally; and, whereas,
this is only a family matter in which
the public has no special interest; and.
whereas, we are able to settle this mat
ter ourselves, 'we most earnestly ' re
quest the public press of this city to
refiain from further publications In ref
erence to this matter."
