THURSDAY, March 1,1883-9 a. m.The session was opened with prayer by Representative Frazee, of Rush County.
Mr. STERRITT called up his amendment to the rules of the House providing that at each morning session a call of the House shall be taken, and each member shall have the privilege of calling up one bill and putting it upon its passage
Mr. GIBSON moved an amendment to the motion by striking out House rule No. 35, which provides that motion to reconsider shall be entered the same day or the next day alter the vote is taken upon any question. The amendment to the motion was agreed to and the motion as recommended was adopted.
page: 276[View Page 276]THE'GENERAL APPROPRIATION BILL.
Mr. HEFFREN moved to reconsider the vote by which the report of the Conference Committee on bill [H. R. 302], the general appropriation bill was concurred in by the House.
Mr. FRAZER stated by way of explanation that the purpose of the motion was to reconsider the report of the Conference Committee on the general appropriation bill. The object, as he understood it, was to defeat the general appropriation bill. He thought the motion should not pass for the reason that this Conference report is satisfactory to a great majority of the members of both Houses. This bill has been agreed to by a large majority of both Houses, and there is no reason why it should be reconsidered.
Mr. HEFFREN said: I had hoped that I would not be compelled to make this motion. I am opposed to an extra session. But circumstances have occurred in the other branch of this General Assembly that Imperatively call for this motion. To any one who has witnessed the scenes in the Senate during the past twenty-four hours he would be recreant to every principle of duty to his Democratic brethren of the Senate if he did not do this. Could the people of this State have seen the presiding officer by brute force trample under foot every rule of that body, every principle of parliamentary law: could they have seen him take an enrolled bill passed by both Houses of this General Assembly, and deliberately thrust it into his pocket and declare it never should become a law; when I am credibly informed that another functionary still higher than the President of the Senate is also of that opinion, and will interpose a veto so late that this General Assembly can not act upon it, and when there could have been seen a Superintendent of Police, two Captains of Police, and twenty-one policemen, backed up by the Sheriff of Marion County, on the floor to overawe the Democratic Senator, and to give moral and material aid to the conspirators, I am ready to let the Governor of Indiana assume the responsibilities, and say to him: "You shall not thus obstruct legislation, and if you do you shall have no appropriation." I shall stand by my party and unequivocally support its policy.
Mr. SHIVELY had hoped that this part of the General Assembly would endeavor to take care of its own proceedings, and that fairness and justice should prevail at all times. He thought the gentleman from Washington [Mr. Heffren] had violated all parliamentary law in his criticism upon the acts of the presiding officer of the Senate of this General Assembly. It illy became the gentleman from Washington to criticise the action of the President of the Senate since he himself was a party but a few days ago to acts equally as malicious as those he now charges upon that officer. When this metropolitan police bill and several other bills were read the third time and put upon their passage, the Democratic Speaker of this House persistently refused to recognize Republican members on this floor although they eagerly sought such recognition. If the Democrats wish to take the responsibility of an extra session, by reconsidering the action on the appropriation bill, why very well, go on. The Senate has been guided in its ruling by the precedent set by the Democratic Speaker of this House.
Mr GIBSON was very much surprised that gentlemen should be worked up over a little thing of this kind. Members are very much mistaken if they think there is no reason for this consideration but to force an extra session of the Legislature. It is simply because there are some provisions in the bill which are objectionable. He desired to second the criticism of the action that bag been going on lit the other end of the building. Such action would justify any action on the part of the members of this House. He was willing, taking into consideration the action in the Senate, to share his part of the responsibility of an extra session. Whenever a man has not brains enough to comprehend what is just to the majority of the Senate-overriding the majority by infamous decisions-he should be criticised. Such a brainless coward is the man who occupies the Chair in the other end of the building.
Mr. HUSTON was of the opinion that the minority might as well look at this thing calmly and not get into an ill humor about it; but he thought every member should have the privilege of expressing his opinion. The question before the House is whether or not we shall reconsider the vote on the general appropriation bill. Now, there Is no member on this floor who will not readily admit that the result would be to force an extra session. He believed that the attempt was to defeat the appropriation bill-to get it in such a condition that the Democratic members of this General Assembly may say to the Governor: "If you dare not sign and return to us this metropolitan police bill, which was crowded through the House under the 'gag-law,' at once, we will defeat the appropriation bill." If the Democrats had alternated to reconsider this question at the proper time he would have voted for such reconsideration. He thought, with the precedent the Speaker of the House had set in refusing to recognize Republicans on the floor of this House, the Democratic members should not wince nor complain of arbitrary ruling in the other end of this building.
Mr. BOWERS voted for the appropriation bill, and had been since that time frequently importuned by Republican members to move to reconsider the vote. He was now ready and willing to vote for such reconsideration.
Mr. COPELAND thought it came with very poor grace for a Democratic member to charge open handed revolution against the Republican party or its representatives on this floor; that it ill becomes the Democratic members on this floor to denounce Lieutenant Governor Hanna, a gallant soldier in the late War, as a brainless coward, a revolutionist and dictator. It ill becomes you, who from the beginning of the session have embraced every opportunity to thrust on the minority of this House that most infamous of all rules, the gag-law, under the leadership of a rampant, unrepentant ex-Son of Liberty.
Mr. HEFFREN rose to a question of order and demanded that the words just spoken by the gentleman from Jefferson [Mr. Copeland] be taken down, and declaring the language used unparliamentary.
The Speaker commanded the Clerk to take down the language used by Mr. Copeland, which the Speaker decided to be unparliamentary, and ordered Mr. Copeland to sit down.
Mr. COPELAND answered that in Russia it might do to order a man to sit down, but that such tyrannical methods would not be tolerated in the General Assembly of the great State of Indiana. When you gentlemanly rule that I am out of order I shall take my seat, but not until then.
The SPEAKER declared the gentleman to be out of order.
Mr. HEFFREN said: I merely rise to make a single statement. I do not propose now to so into political or a political discussion-time enough for that yet. I have to say of the intemperate language of the member from Jefferson [Mr. Copeland] that it reminds me of an occurrence I witnessed last summer. I was reposing on a grassy plat and looking up into the foliage of a pine tree, a little bird alighted on the top-most swinging bough and sang out, "Tom-tit," "torn-tit " In an instance he threw his head down and his tall up and sang out, "Tom-tit." I must say that I could not tell "which end the song came from." and I am at equal loss to tell where the clamor and noise. In unparliamentary language, comes from that was poured forth by the member from Jefferson. I pose him.
Mr. PATTEN was one of the members who vot page: 277[View Page 277]ed against the appropriation bill. He did it because he thought it was his duty. He desired to say that it was not his desire to have an extra Session. '
Mr. JEWETT was of the opinion that in all the discussion there had been no reason advanced why this motion to reconsider should prevail. He coined heartily in what gentlemen had said about the scenes in the other end of the building going down in history as one of the worst exhibitions of petty tyranny ever perpetrated. He believed that the members were not in the right mood to discuss this question further at present, and made an ineffectual motion to postpone the question until 10 o'clock to morrow.
Mr. SMITH, of Tippecanoe, believed that such a thing as repealing the general appropriation bill had never occurred. He hoped that the second step would not be taken in this revolutionary measure,
Mr. WILS0N, of Marion, had likened to the discussion of this question and had heard, he was sorry to say many things that had no bearing upon the question under consideration. He hoped there would not be an extra session. He could not see that any good would come of an extra session, and if the Senate and Governor would act promptly and without delay there will be a way out of this difficulty. He moved the previous question, which was seconded by the House.
The previous question was ordered by a vote of yeas, 54; nays, 33.
Under the operations of the previous question the motion to reconsider the vote on the concurrence in the Conference Committee report was agreed to by yeas, 67; nays, 41.
On motion by Mr. HEFFREN the report was laid on the table by yeas, 57; nays, 40.
The bill [S. 167] to define the Twentieth Judicial Circuit and creating the Forty-fifth Judicial Circuit was read the third time.
Mr. FRAZER noticed by the provisions of the bill that it makes two Circuits out of the Counties of Boone and Clinton, both small Counties Two-thirds of the Counties of the State would be entitled to separate Circuits if these two Counties are. Mr. Bryant stated that in Clinton County they had a population of 21,000, and in Boone County a population of 27,000, and that the Court was now behind 1,000 cases.
Mr. PATTEN was one of the Committee who investigated this matter and felt it his duty to support this measure. The bill passed the House by yeas, 54; nays, 26.
Mr. Robinson's bill [H. R. 224] to regulate the Incorporation of the town of Carbon, Clay County, was read the third time and by yeas, 68; nays. 8, passed the House.
Mr. Carr's bill [H. R. 418] to legalize the incorporporation of the town of Churubusco, Whitley County, was read a third time and passed the House by yeas, 85; nays, 1.
Mr. Mellitt's bill [H. R. 380] to leagalize the inporation of the Daleville and Mill Creek Turnpike Company was read the third time and passed the House by yeas, 78; nays, 4.
Mr. Montgomery's bill [H. R. 415] concerning the distribution of property when divorces are granted, either to husband or wife, was read the third time and failed to pass-yeas, 44; nays, 36 for want of a Constitutional majority.
The House took a recess until 2 o'clock.
Mr. FRAZEE offered a concurrent resolution, which was referred to a Committee of Three, returning thanks to James Gordon Bennett for his princely gift to the sufferers from the Ohio River floods.
Mr. SCHLOSS offered a resolution, which was laid on the table, granting aid to persons rendered destitute by the floods on the Wabash.
Mr. HEFFREN called up the special order, being Mr. GRAHAM'S bill [H. R. 256], to provide a fund for the permanent endowment of the State University which was read the third time.
Mr. SUTTON favored the passage of the bill with the prevent provisions. This bill seeks to give five cents en the $1,000. A man who pays a tax of $10,000 would pay a tax of fifty cents to this institution. But this tax as provided under the previsions of this bill will raise a tax of $45,000 yearly. He understood that overtures had been made to some of the Professors by Eastern Colleges and he favored placing the school in such a concition that these men would be retained.
Mr. HEFFREN. I have said nothing upon thi bill in its various stages, and shall say but little now. I perhaps am differently constituted from many on this floor. 1 have never yet learned to weigh dimes and dollars against education, knowledge and science. For half a century Indiana has had a University with no endowment fund. It is time she had such an Institution well endowed, where her sons may achieve distinction in the battle of life. I would have one Institution, where we might point in after years and say, there was another Galileo or another Herschel brought forth to the world; one who, pointing his telescope into infinite space, could make new discoveries; where comets and planets perform their stupendous revolutions, that would ennoble the name and fame of Indiana. I would have another Cuvier produced, who, by comparative anotomy, can reconstruct the monsters of ancient times from a single bone. I would have a Hugh Miller, with his geologist's hammer in his hand, standing fit the loot of some mighty cliff, roll back the curtain of time, and, as he laid bare the rocks, read of ages long since passed and gone, and what and who inhabited this world of ours. I would have one place where Indiana's sons and daughters could store the mind with knowledge, civilization and science, find where they might go forth from and flaunt their names high up on the ladder of fame where their attainments, knowledge and genius should stand as beacon lights to a lesser informed world. This would I have Indiana do for her children, and thus would I rear a monument of science and intelligence that would stand out in all the glory and splendor that could encircle go noble and glorious a purpose. Endow this University, pass this bill, and Indiana's name will be honored when our bodies shall be dust and we gathered to our rewards. I hope the bill will pass.
Mr. JEWETT demanded the previous question, which was seconded by the House.
Under the operations of the previous question the bill passed the House by yeas, 78; nays, 61.
Mr. HEFFREN moved to suspend the rules and read the following Senate bills the first and second time, by title only.

The publisher of the Sunday Mirror has been dragged into the phone hacking investigation for the first time after four journalists were arrested over fresh allegations.
Three men, aged 40, 46 and 49, and a 47-year-old woman were arrested at 6am on Thursday morning on suspicion of conspiracy to intercept telephone communications.
They are all current or former journalists at Mirror Group Newspapers titles, Scotland Yard said, and were arrested at separate addresses across south London.
The conspiracy is being treated separately from the two plots being investigated at the now defunct News of the World, the Yard added, and focuses on the Sunday Mirror.
In a statement, the force said detectives working on Operation Weeting, its investigation into phone hacking, have "identified and are investigating a suspected conspiracy to intercept telephone voicemails at Mirror Group Newspapers".
It added: "This conspiracy is being treated as a separate conspiracy to the two being investigated at the now defunct News of the World newspaper.
"It is believed it mainly concerned the Sunday Mirror newspaper and at this stage the primary focus is on the years 2003 and 2004."
The suspects are being interviewed at various police stations in London while searches are being carried out at a number of addresses.
Officers said they plan to make contact with people they believe to have been victims of the suspected phone hacking in due course.

Hillary Clinton tribute fuels more 2016 buzz
Despite her repeated statements that she will leave public service once her successor is in place, buzz about a possible second run for the presidency by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is in full force following the showing of a tribute video of her career.
Before delivering remarks on U.S. and Israeli relations Friday, the Saban Center for Middle East Policy at the Brookings Institution rolled out a video replete with soaring music and effusive praise of Clinton's career by high-profile leaders and luminaries, and with it, continued speculation about whether she really has run her last political race.
"As someone who knows a thing or two about political comebacks, I don't think we have heard the last of Hillary Clinton," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in the video.
"I have an instinct that the best is yet to come," said Tony Blair, the Middle East envoy and former British prime minister.
The video was part of the ninth annual forum by the Saban Center that focuses on the ongoing conflict between Israelis and Palestinians, and the U.S. role in dealing with it.
Clinton has repeatedly said that she intends to retire to private life once her successor is confirmed by the Senate, and that another run for the White House is not in the cards for her.
"Look, I'm flattered. I am honored," she told CNN's Wolf Blitzer this year about calls by other Democrats for her to consider another run in 2016. "That is not in the future for me, but obviously I'm hoping that I'll get to cast my vote for a woman running for president of our country."
But with other notable figures like Sen. John McCain, R-Arizona, adding a healthy dose of bipartisan praise for America's top diplomat in the video, the never-ending question of will she or won't she seemingly lives another day. The blogosphere and airwaves were full of predictions Monday that the video signaled Clinton would make another run for the White House.
"The film was like an international endorsement four years in advance of the Iowa caucus and the New Hampshire primary," wrote David Remnick of The New Yorker magazine.
Clinton's onetime competitor and current boss added to the tribute.
"A lot has been said about our relationship, and here's what I know," President Obama said in the video. "You haven't only been one of my closest partners, you have become a great friend."
Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Salam Fayyad, Israeli President Shimon Peres and former U.S. Secretary of State Madeline Albright added their praise for Clinton in the video as well.
"I am somewhat overwhelmed, but I'm obviously thinking I should sit down," Clinton said to laughter as she took the stage to begin her remarks. "I prepared some remarks for tonight, but then I thought maybe we could just watch that video a few more times."

By Henry Cuningham Military editor
Brig. Gen. Jeffrey A. Sinclair will go to court-martial on charges ranging from fraud to forcible sodomy, Fort Bragg officials said Tuesday.
The case is scheduled for arraignment Jan. 22 at 9 a.m. at Fort Bragg. An arraignment is a court proceeding where the accused officially hears charges and can enter a plea. Fort Bragg officials said they expect Sinclair's arraignment to be open to the public.
"We are disappointed by the decision," said Lt. Col. Jackie L. Thompson Jr., Sinclair's lead defense lawyer, "but confident that General Sinclair will be exonerated of sexual assault at trial. ... You can expect that we will fight vigorously to bring the truth to light."
Sinclair faces eight charges of violating the Uniform Code of Military Justice and 25 specifications.
The UCMJ includes offenses which are not criminal in civilian courts, such as conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman, which is among the specifications Sinclair faces.
The alleged incidents occurred during the past five years at Fort Bragg and other U.S. Army posts and in Iraq, Afghanistan, Germany and Kuwait, as well as on military airplane flights.
Names of the alleged victims were redacted from the Army charge sheet furnished to The Fayetteville Observer on Tuesday. The charges and specifications against Sinclair include:
Forcible sodomy with a captain in Afghanistan.
Engaging in sexual contacts with a captain by grabbing her without her consent.
Disobeying an order from Maj. Gen. Jim Huggins, his superior officer, to cease all contact with a captain by calling her cellphone.
Wrongfully engaging in an inappropriate relationship with a major.
Wrongfully possessing alcohol in Afghanistan in violation of military orders.
Wrongfully possessing and displaying sexually explicit photos and movies in Afghanistan in violation of military orders.
Wrongfully using his government travel charge card for personal purposes.
Using his rank and authority to "coerce and compel" a captain to maintain a sexual relationship and prevent her from ending the relationship.
Attempting to engage in an inappropriate relationship with a first lieutenant.
Having sexual intercourse with a captain and threatening her if she told anyone about their relationship.
Lt. Gen. Daniel B. Allyn on Friday referred the case to a general court-martial, Fort Bragg officials said. Allyn is the commander of Fort Bragg and the 18th Airborne Corps.
Sinclair, 50, is the first general in recent memory to face court-martial at Fort Bragg. The case comes at a time when the Department of Defense is attempting to prevent and punish sexual assault and sexual harassment in the military.
The charges against Sinclair were aired and witnesses testified during an Article 32 pretrial hearing in November on Fort Bragg. The investigating officer, Maj. Gen. Perry Wiggins, made recommendations to Allyn as to how to proceed after that hearing. Wiggins commands the 1st Army Division West based at Fort Hood, Texas, and is former commander of the 82nd Combat Aviation Brigade at Fort Bragg.
If convicted, Sinclair could face up to life in prison and be forced to register as a sex offender.
Sinclair, who is assigned for administrative purposes as a special assistant to Allyn, was deputy commanding general for support of the 82nd Airborne Division. He was sent home from Afghanistan in the spring after the allegations surfaced.
Sinclair admitted an affair to military authorities but contended that any sex was consensual, according to sources close to his defense. He has described an accuser as becoming increasingly desperate while his relationship with her continued and he remained with his wife.
His wife, Rebecca Sinclair, has said in interviews on national television that said she stands by her husband and is confident that the most serious charges against him will be dismissed.

The Presbyterians and the Auburn Affirmation
The Conflict between Modernism and Traditionalism.
The Presbyterian Church U.S.A. (Northern) was deeply split at the turn of the century between conservative traditionalists and those more responsive to changes in biblical scholarship and the surrounding world. The modernists, as they would soon be called, believed it was time for a reexamination of the Westminster Confession of Faith (1647), which was still the foundation of Presbyterian doctrines. Conservatives not only opposed such a reexamination but saw no reason for it. In 1910, at the close of the annual General Assembly, the conservatives succeeded in adopting a set of five "essential and necessary" doctrines for its ministers. They quickly became known as the Five Points. The Five Points included a belief in the inerrancy of the Bible, the virgin birth of Christ, his substitutionary atonement, his bodily resurrection, and the authenticity of miracles. These were similar to the Five Points of Fundamentalism, although the Fundamentalists substituted the imminent return of Christ for the belief in miracles. Even though the last points were sharply different, the conservatives and the Fundamentalists worked together effectively against their more liberal common enemies during the 1920s.

In 1920 The Dearborn Independent began a series of articles attacking the alleged power of Jews in the international banking community and their relation to the recent World War, which Ford had bitterly opposed. The articles, later published as The International Jew: The World's Foremost Problem (1922), reflected many of the anti-Semitic assumptions of nineteenth-century American rural culture. The Dearborn Independent charged that Jewish financiers had gained control of the money supply and manipulated it to advance their interests. (Ford himself regretted that he had borrowed from eastern banks to finance the expansion of his automobile company and acted as quickly as possible to regain total control over the Ford Motor Company.) The articles went further, charging that these Jewish bankers had pulled the world into the recent World War. The articles culminated by repeating the old lie that Jews were plotting to overthrow Christian civilization.

Protestant Evangelism
Cooperative Evangelism.
The self-assurance of American Protestants reached a high in 1919 as the various leading denominations agreed to cooperate with each other in evangelizing the world. The euphoric optimism that followed the end of World War I convinced many Protestants leaders that now the world was ready for mass conversion. Under the terms of the Interchurch World Movement, the denominations agreed to coordinate their benevolent activities. Among other things, the world's mission fields would be divided among the various denominations to eliminate competition and improve efficiency. In addition, the Interchurch Movement promised to raise $200 million, as a start to fund this effort. The total budget for the next decade was estimated at $1 billion.
Failed Effort.
The Interchurch World Movement began its fund-raising drive in 1920 using advertising as a basis:
Christ was big, was He not? None bigger.
Christ was busy, was He not? None busier.
He was always about His Father's business.
Christ needs big men for big business.
However, the campaign was a failure. Some denominations declined to cooperate from the beginning. The Southern Baptist Convention refused to permit any agency to stop its missionaries from preaching to anyone anywhere in the world. When the Interchurch Movement...

The Rise and Retreat of Fundamentalism
The Fundamentalist Challenge.
In the 1920s, to the surprise of many observers, American Protestants returned to issues that had seemingly been resolved decades earlier, and the nation was presented with a series of spectacular clashes between people calling themselves Fundamentalists and their opponents, whom they called modernists. In the early years of the decade the Fundamentalists seemed to be riding high, challenging their opponents for control of denominational machinery and of American culture itself. But they failed to drive their enemies from their denominations, and the farcical aspects of the so-called Scopes "Monkey" Trial in Dayton, Tennessee, along with the weaknesses of Prohibition, signaled their loss in the conflict. The Fundamentalists were forced to the sidelines and obscurity, into a quiescence in which they licked their wounds and prepared for the renewal of the struggle that would come at the end of the century.
Modern Scholarship.
In the last decades of the nineteenth century a series of scholarly breakthroughs led to a revolution in the way many people regarded the earth and humanity and how they looked at the Bible. Charles Darwin's theory of evolution provided a way to explain changes in animals and plants over the millions of years of life on the earth. Although some American scientists, most notably Louis...

Headline Makers
Barton, Bruce 1886-1967
Religious Writer.
Bruce Barton attempted to apply to the business and political world of twentieth-century America the religious values he had learned from his father, a Congregationalist minister. Instead of following his father's footsteps into the ministry, when Barton finished his bachelor's degree at Amherst College he moved into journalism and from there into the growing advertising industry. He had immediate success, and in 1918 he was one of the founders of the advertising firm Barton, Durstine, and Osborn, later Barton, Batten, Durstine, and Osborn (BBD&O), which became the third-largest advertising firm in the nation. Even though he was in the secular world, he used his talents for his religious responsibilities. For instance, he coined the slogan later used by the Salvation Army, "A man may be down, but he's never out,"
Becoming a Writer.
In 1914 Barton published his first book, A Young Mari's Jesus, which in its efforts to make the historical Jesus accessible to young men like himself anticipated his better-known work in the following decade. In 1925 he published The Man Nobody Knows, which spent two years on the best-seller list. This was followed by The Book Nobody Knows (1926) and What Can a Man Believe? (1927). Barton took from the Gospels the familiar stories...

Cannon, James, Jr. 1864-1944
Religious Leader.
After graduating from Randolph-Macon College and the Princeton Theological Seminary, James Cannon Jr. committed himself to advancing the cause of Jesus; the Methodist Episcopal Church, South; and himself. His enemies—and he had many inside and outside his denomination—believed that he actually followed these priorities in reverse order. Shortly after Cannon's ordination he became president of the Blackstone School for Girls, a Methodist school in Virginia, and quickly managed to place it and himself on solid financial footing. The money he saved he invested in the Richmond Virginian, which became a leading weekly Methodist newspaper and his voice to his fellow Methodists. He also served as the head of the Virginia Anti-Saloon League, the most prominent Prohibition organization in the country.

Cannon rose quickly in Southern Methodist ranks, in...

Conwell, Russell H. 1843-1925
Outstanding Minister.
In the year before his death, the Christian Century named Russell H. Conwell one of the twenty-five outstanding preachers in the United States. His death ended a long and colorful life. After serving in the military in the Civil War and a successful career in law and as a public lecturer, Conwell turned to the ministry. In 1882 he became pastor of Grace Baptist Church in Philadelphia, a floundering congregation with about ninety members. Within a decade the church had more than three thousand members and soon broke ground for a sanctuary with four thousand seats, making it one of the largest churches in America.
Promoting Growth.
The Baptist Temple of Philadelphia not only had an extensive Sunday program, but Conwell expanded its activities to provide for the secular needs of his parishioners and the surrounding community. In 1884 he began an informal "college" for the young men in the area, a night school that quickly grew into Temple College and then Temple University, with a variety of schools and divisions; he served as the first president. (In 1969 the...

Fosdick, Harry Emerson 1878-1969
Modernist Preacher.
Through his collected sermons, his public stands on issues, and his radio services, Harry Emerson Fosdick became not only the best-known preacher of his day but also a representative of the modernist forces that struggled with Fundamentalists during the 1920s.
Early Career.
In 1919 the dwindling congregations of the First Presbyterian Church in New York City, the University Place Presbyterian Church, and the Madison Square Presbyterian Church agreed to merge to concentrate their combined resources and efforts. Fosdick, a graduate of Colgate College and Union Theological Seminary in New York and already widely known for his sermons, was asked to become the congregation's preaching minster. The fact that he was and would remain a Baptist in this Presbyterian church was considered irrelevant.
Success and Publicity.
Fosdick's services attracted large crowds, and the experiment seemed a splendid success. In 1922 Fosdick entered the growing war between the increasingly militant Fundamentalists and the modernists. In his...

Mcpherson, Aimee Semple 1890-1944
Early Life.
Sister Aimee, as the followers of Aimee Semple McPherson called her, was one of the few women in the United States to form her own denomination—although that was in the process of what she considered her true calling, saving souls. Born Beth Kennedy in Canada into a family dominated by her mother's commitment to the Salvation Army, in 1907 Aimee, as she by then called herself, attended a Pentecostal tent meeting and was converted. She soon married revivalist Robert Semple and went on the revival trail with him. While she was never ordained, she took naturally to preaching, which was sufficient for her and those she brought to the altar. In 1910 the couple went into the missionary field in China, where her daughter was born and her husband died.
Finding a Place.
Distraught, the young widow returned to the United States and two years later married Harold S. McPherson. Family life was not enough to keep Sister Aimee from the revival circuit, and she left her husband to return to saving souls. (He...

Norris, J. Frank 1877-1952
Flamboyant Fundamentalist.
Pastor of the First Baptist Church in Fort Worth, Texas, J. Frank Norris was one of the most flamboyant figures in the Southern Baptist Convention until he was forced from the denomination. Sensation naturally followed Norris. Once he was charged with burning his own church; on another occasion he was declared not guilty on grounds of self-defense for killing one of the many men he offended. A strident voice in Fundamentalist circles, he was widely loved and admired by those who shared his views and were swayed by his sermons.
Early Life and Career.
Norris was born in rural Alabama and moved with his family to Texas as a child. He experienced an early conversion, and after graduating from Baylor University and the Southern Baptist Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, he took a church in Dallas, Texas, which he quickly developed into one of the largest congregations in the state. In 1909 he became pastor of the First Baptist Church in Fort Worth, where he spent the rest of his career, although he also assumed the pastorate of Temple Baptist Church in Detroit in the 1930s, somehow managing to run both churches at the same time.
Provocative Preacher.
Norris was acknowledged as one of the greatest preachers of his time. He...

Riley, William Bell 1861-1947
Early Ministry.
William Bell Riley was educated at Hanover College in Indiana and then studied at the Southern Baptist Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. After serving a series of small churches, he became pastor of the First Baptist Church of Minneapolis in 1897, which he quickly developed into one of the largest congregations in the country and a major force in the struggle for Fundamentalism. In 1902 he founded the Northwestern Bible and Missionary Training School, which was later expanded with the addition of a seminary and then a college and now is called the Northwestern Schools.
Riley was one of most successful proponents to a general audience of the imminent return of Christ, the premillennialist doctrine that became one of the principles of Fundamentalism in the late nineteenth century. But Riley led the struggle with modernism in his own Northern Baptist Convention and in Protestant circles less over the doctrine of premillennialism than over the inerrancy of the Bible. He was convinced that the perceived drift from the true foundations of Christianity came from the scholarly examination of the Bible in theological schools—examinations that regarded the Bible as a human document that could be studied like any other human document, with a belief that its value lies in its ability...

Ryan, John A. 1865-1945
American Priest.
Father John A. Ryan was America's best-known liberal Catholic cleric in the 1920s. The son of Irish immigrants, he grew up in Minnesota and was deeply affected by the attempts of Archbishop John Ireland of Saint Paul to acculturate the Roman Catholic Church to America without compromising its essential beliefs and structures. Father Ryan was also touched by the message to the laboring classes expressed in Pope Leo XIII's Rerum Novarum 1891; Of New Things, which warned of the dangers of socialism but also condemned the excesses of capitalism.
Academic Career.
Ryan earned a Ph.D. at the Catholic University. His dissertation, published in 1906 as The Living Wage, presented his belief that American capitalism could and should be reformed according to Christian principles. Christianity offered more hope to the workingman, he said, than any form of socialism. It also offered a better life for Christian capitalists. In 1915 Father Ryan returned to the Catholic University, where he developed a distinguished teaching career.
Social Action.
When the United States entered World War I in 1917, Father Ryan worked closely with the National Catholic Warfare Conference, a national agency that coordinated the charitable activities of the...

Straton, John Roach 1874-1929
Major Fundamentalists.
John Roach Straton was born into a Baptist preacher's home and early in his life dedicated himself to the ministry. He attended Mercer University and the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary but did not earn any degrees. After serving a series of churches in the South, in 1918 he was called to Calvary Baptist Church in New York City, where he became a leading public figure in city life and a major force in the Fundamentalist struggles of the 1920s.
Public Figure.
Straton quickly became a public figure in New York with his attacks on vice and corruption, which he charged made the city a modern Babylon suitable for God's wrath. In 1920 he singled out the Broadway play Aphrodite as a target, charging that it marked a new low in morality and a "degrading bondage to Mammon." He was disgusted, he said, by this "nightmare of nude men and women slobbering over each other, lolling on couches, and dancing together in feigned drunken revelry."

Sunday, William "Billy" 1862-1935
The Best-Known Evangelist in America.
Billy Sunday entered the 1920s as the best-known revivalist in America. His great campaign in New York City in 1917 coincided with America's entry into the Great War, and in his sermons Sunday managed to fuse Christianity and American patriotism to the delight of millions. His success was even greater when he was able to celebrate the death of his longtime enemy, "John Barleycorn," with the adoption of Prohibition. He even attained some wealth, In 1920 Dun and Bradstreet estimated his worth at $1.4 million.
However, the 1920s were not pleasant for Sunday and his wife. While he continued to attract large audiences and led thousands to hit the "sawdust trail" that led to the altars of the tabernacles he had put up for his revivals, these special buildings no longer went up in the largest cities of the North, and he found himself working medium-sized cities in the South and Midwest.
He also faced a series of scandals that raised questions about his ethics and abilities. He was sued by men who claimed they had ghostwritten some of his books and had not been properly paid. Questions were raised about his ministry's finances, which were skillfully handled by his wife. Sunday's expensive organization...

People in the News
In November 1920 Secretary of War Newton D. Baker signed prison-release authorizations for thirty-three conscientious objectors who had refused to comply with conscription or to give alternative service during World War I. They based their stand on their Christian conviction that cooperation with any war effort and its destruction of life was wrong. Their release triggered loud protests from the American Legion and other patriotic groups.
In June 1929 Reverend William St. John Blackshear, the Texas-born rector of St. Matthew's Protestant Episcopal Church in Brooklyn, read a statement in which he noted that there were Episcopal churches for African Americans nearby and that therefore he discouraged "members of that race" from attending his church. The five African American members of St. Matthews were deeply upset, and several stopped attending the church. When the incident attracted protests from the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), Reverend Blackshear said he was surprised at the response.
In June 1921 Charles Carver, rector of Christ Episcopal Church in New Haven, Connecticut, played the leading role in nine performances of The Divorce Question at the Hyperion Theater. The former actor said he hoped "to bring to the attention of the people of New Haven the great divorce evil."

Ole Miss upsets No. 15 Bulldogs
Special to The Herald
OXFORD - Mississippi State could not recover from early offensive troubles as the 15th-ranked Bulldogs dropped a 75-68 decision to arch-rival Ole Miss in a Southeastern Conference men's basketball game played Wednesday night at Tad Smith Coliseum.
The Bulldogs missed 10 of their first 11 shots from the field but did manage to recover for a pair of brief leads. However, the Rebels took advantage of some MSU misfires on offense down the stretch and hit just enough free throws to seal the victory.MSU fell to 15-4 overall and 2-2 in league play, while Ole Miss improved to 12-6 and 2-2. The Bulldogs had won five straight in the series and three straight in this arena. Amazingly enough, Ole Miss is now 15-0 in Wednesday night home conference games under coach Andy Kennedy. The Rebels are also a perfect 8-0 on the home hardwood this season.
"It is tough to play uphill all night long," MSU head coach Rick Stansbury said. "We kept the game within striking distance. They spurted out to nine or 10 in the second half and we got it back down to four. Then we had three or four empty possessions. When you are fighting for your life on the road, you can't have empty possessions."
Reginald Buckner dominated the activity for the Rebels. Buckner posted his fourth double-double of the season with 19 points and 15 rebounds, including 10 on the defensive end. Ole Miss had its best offensive night in league play, posting 75 total points while shooting an even 50 percent from the field.
Thanks to the early offensive struggles for MSU, Ole Miss built an early 12-3 lead less than six minutes into the contest. The Bulldogs closed within 15-12 on a 3-point basket by Jalen Steele. Seconds later, a Rodney Hood 3-pointer brought the guests within one. MSU finally broke through for a 18-17 lead on a Hood jumper and stretched the lead to a game-best 21-19 advantage on a Steele 3-pointer.
Ole Miss answered with the game's next eight points and would not trail again. The Rebels carried a 38-33 lead into the halftime.
"In the second half, we knew we had a chance if we could make some defensive stops," Stansbury said. "They missed some free throws and that kept us in the game. However, we could not sustain an offensive rhythm. We couldn't ever quiet get over the hump."
Ole Miss scored the first two baskets of the second half to stretch the lead to 42-33. MSU battled back yet again. An Arnett Moultrie 3-point basket brought the Bulldogs within four at 51-47 with 10:04 left. The Bulldogs missed their next three shots. MSU would later close within three twice, the last time at 63-60 with 2:21 left. Terrance Henry then hit a pair of free throws for Ole Miss and the Rebels, despite making only 17 of 30 free throw attempts, moved back out of danger.
For the contest, the Bulldogs hit 23 of 61 shots from the field (37.7 percent), 12 of 16 shots from the foul line (75.0 percent) and 10 of 29 shots from 3-point range (34.5 percent). The Rebels hit 27 of 54 shots from the field (50.0 percent), 17 of 30 shots from the foul line (56.7 percent) and 4 of 13 shots from 3-point range (30.8 percent).
Ole Miss held a 38-35 rebounding advantage. The Bulldogs had 15 assists and seven turnovers, while the Rebels had 14 assists and five turnovers.
Sidney paced the Bulldogs with 17 points. Dee Bost added 15 points, while Hood scored 13 points and Moultrie scored 10 points. Moultrie also had a team-best 12 rebounds for his conference-best 10th double-double of the season.
The Rebels also received 17 points from Nick Williams, 12 points from Jarvis Summers and 12 points from Henry.
The Bulldogs remain on the road for Saturday night contest at Vanderbilt. Tip-off is set for 6 p.m. at Memorial Gymnasium in Nashville. ESPN2 will have the national telecast. MSU is back home for LSU on Jan. 25.

Apart from EC Directives and Regulations, the EC Treaty itself contains rules directly applicable to matters of international taxation. In this context, the decisions of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) on the fundamental freedoms laid down in the EC Treaty are of primary importance. If a provision of a tax treaty conflicts with the EC Treaty, the Treaty supersedes it.
This collection of essays examines the far-reaching effects of primary EC law, in particular the fundamental freedom provisions in the EC Treaty, on tax treaties concluded by the member states. Using the method of examination employed by the ECJ, the contributors present a systematic analysis of the effects of the interaction of national tax law, tax treaty law, and the EC Treaty.
This work provides an essential source of reference for fiscal experts active in the field of international taxation. It helps practitioners avoid giving advice that ultimately proves flawed because of a conflicting ruling.

I often wonder with studies on weight, health and obesity if researchers are oversimplifying their studies and not taking into account important factors like general health, genetics, health history etc. Maybe obesity's affect on health depends on genetics such that some people are healthier with more weight and others less healthy. Adding genetics and overall health assessment to these studies would make them more accurate which is important.
Generally, as they create these experiments, doctors and scientists must take such factors into account when they create the treatment and control groups. They do full health checks to ensure that all those participating are basically the same, without any outstanding health issues that could interfere.

The Briarwood Inn
Online Reservations
Best restaurant in the greater Denver area. Excellent food, service, ambiance. Great for special occasions!
Took a friend for a special birthday treat. We did the High Tea and it was wonderful. Service and food were great.
I like Briarwood Inn because the Food is great and the service is outstanding. You dine in a quiet room and never feel rushed. Nice place to go for special occasions since you can talk and hear what the other people at the table are saying. The brunch has several choices and all of them are very good. The Prime rib and the Eggs Benedict were very good!
Wonderful service and food, celebrated someone specials birthday and they treated us so great on a special occasion.
The service is exceptional and the dining area is very relaxing. The food was all very good. All fresh and made from scratch. I look ahead to dining again.
At my mother's request, we went to The Briarwood for brunch to celebrate her 80th birthday and it did not disappoint! We had a wonderful server, Chris, who accommodated all our special requests without hesitation. His assistant was equally attentive to our every need. The omelets are huge but great....prime rib benedict excellent.....seafood crepes were excellent though we all agreed they didn't look too appetizing on the plate (needed some color). We look forward to our next visit!
Briarwood has always been a place to celebrate special occasions with their superior service and great food. The wood surfaces do tend to keep noise level a little higher then would expect. Pricing keeps Briarwood for only special occasions. Plan on $150 for 2 people without alcohol.
This place is absolutely wonderful. The staff were on top of their game and the atmosphere was perfect. We will definitely visit this place again and will bring family and friends. Great job BWI !
We had the whole dining room to ourselves and an excellent server! Ron was his name! We will be back soon!
Wonderful Witches Tea at the Briarwood. It's a fun, festive tea that is great for all ages and genders. The service was fabulous and the food was fantastic!! Highly recommended!
This was as nice as we remember it 20 years ago. Service is outstanding and you could almost cut your steak with a fork only. Food was well worth the price and it was just a wonderful evening.
The Witches Tea is a fun Halloween event that I look forward to each year. The food is good, the service is great and it is just a fun overall experience to see all the fun and different witches and some of there outfits.
We attended the Witch's Tea at the Briarwood on Saturday. What a hoot! Everyone had a delightful time enjoying the teas, the themed tea tower and the ambience. Adults love to dress up for Halloween, too. The costumes were very entertaining. Can't wait "til next year!
Great date place! Love coming here! I've been coming here for over a decade and never disappoint with the prime rib!
The Briarwood Inn is one of the best high-end restaurants in the Denver area. The food, service and ambiance are impeccable. The attentive wait staff and the quality of the food can't be beat. They have a pre-fixe four-course offering that is a great value. We have visited a half-dozen times over the years for special occasions. We will definitely be back!
Always loved the Briarwood for special occasions. Atmosphere and service were excellent and elegant. I was glad I could still get the spinach salad. It was always a favorite. They no longer have the veal and I was disappointed but the other selections were good. The people were fantastic, and friendly as well as proficient servers.
One of our favorite spots. This time, for the first time, one meal was less than expected, but they made that right immediately. Never can go wrong for wonderful food and service.
Great food, romantic setting, and good service. Can't say we have ever had anything but a great dining experience here and Friday night was no different. Ambience is getting a bit dated for anything but a romantic dinner though. Bar was dead.
my night was perfect!!!!!!! my absolute favorite place to dine! i felt like i was at the Brown Palace!!!!! i was Queen for a night!!!!! thank-you all for the great experience!!!!!
Food was very good but not outstanding. Appetizer was Outstanding however! and the presentation was wonderful. The service was Fabulous. From the moment we walked in the customer service was very friendly, polite and extremely efficient. We thoroughly enjoyed dining there and will dine there again.
Briarwood amazing meal for a special occasion but it will cost you some $$$$. For the 2 of us it was $240 with tip. Was it worth it??
What a blast! A murder mystery troupe and a wonderful dinner, what more can one ask for in a dining experience! The troupe was great, very animated and fun to interact with at all times. The dinner was very good, as usual, the squash ravioli melted in your mouth...
My fiancé and I chose this spot as our July 2014 wedding reception venue. We visited for dinner. The manager remembered us and sat us himself in a quiet section of the tavern area. The service was the best I've ever had and the food was amazing. While definitely pricy, this place is worth every penny.
Now that the BRIARWOOD INN features Brunch on Saturday we decided to enjoy the wonderful food a day earlier. If you want a 'sit down brunch' you must go to the Briarwood! Wonderful pastries and any left overs will be boxed up for your enjoyment on another day - they freeze beautifully. Fruit cup is always a treat - and a healthy one! Ordered the omelet - my favorite - with everything - topped with Béarnaise. What more could you want? Enough for another day. My husband enjoyed Prime/Briarwood....prime rib plus a poached egg on English Muffin with avocado, tomato, large shrimp and Béarnaise. Delicious as usual!
We enjoy The Briarwood as often as we can. Whether for a romantic dinner, a family special occasion, or a glass of wine in the lounge. Our 37th Anniversary dinner at the Briarwood Sunday evening was perfect. Our host, Duncan and our waiter-in-training, Steph, were fantastic. Denise helped us keep Steph on his toes making this occasion very personal.
We had a wonderful experience. We went there the first night they had Christmas decor out and it was beautiful. I would definitely recommend this great restaurant.
Dinner at the Briarwood is always special. Once again the food was wonderful and well priced.
Always excellent, the staff wonderful and the food out of this world. Love coming when Christmas Decorations are up.
A really great place. Food is always of the highest level and everyone on the staff wants to make your experience unforgettable. It is a special place and whether you go for brunch, lunch, dinner or one of their special events, you will not be disappointed.
Loved the atmosphere, the food, the service, and the decor. It was a wonderful night and I'm sure that we will return very soon.
Service was excellent -- friendly, attentive staff. Food was quite good and we enjoyed the Christmas decorations very much.
As a special occasion restaurant, The Briarwood is a treat. The food is delicious, and the service is excellent. It is heartening to know that excellent dining is alive and well in Golden.
We had the 4 course meal with the wine pairing, and got the traditional Turkey Dinner. It was delicious and lovely. It was a bit pricey BUT worth it for the special occasion.
My husband and I wanted a place to go this year that would feel special since this was the year we didn't have any of our adult children in town. The Briarwood didn't disappoint. The Christmas decorations were beautiful, and the food was delicious. Our waiter was very friendly and attended to our every need.
This was out first experience at the Briarwood Inn and we were absolutely delighted! This is the place to go when one wants to celebrate. We are absolutely going to put this on our list for special occasions. In fact we are trying to figure out how we can make up special occasions!! We just loved it, thank you!
I'm hooked! I used to think eating out on holidays would be a crowded nightnare. Not true at the Briarwood. We had a quiet booth and fantastic food. Everyone appreciated the choice of a Thanksgiving traditional meal or menu item. Our group ordered filet, salmon and cioppino. Filet and salmon cooked perfectly. Cioppino brimming with seafood. Holiday or not, dining at Briarwood is truly exceptional!
Each year for the past 7 years I have gone to the Briarwood for Thanksgiving or Christmas , first with a friend who sadly passed away 4 years ago. Then I kept the tradition going with other dear friends. It is a day of remembrance for me in a special setting with good food and memories. We always look forward to the decorations and the ambience. Everyone is always warm and friendly to us while we are there. .
What better way to celebrate Thanksgiving then at The Briarwood Inn......offered the traditional Thanksgiving dinner or your favorite from their menu. Enjoyed the squash ravioli - sauce was unbelievable......best vegetarian dish I've ever had. Can't miss with this one. Spouse ordered filet - tender and delicious. Kim took care of us beautifully.......what a joy! Briarwood is now open for lunch - go during the holidays and enjoy the beautiful decorations. If you like Carolers - stop in on any Sunday in December for dinner. Great start for the holidays!
Met a friend for drinks, food and conversation. What a wonderful Friday evening! Enjoyed wine and an appetizer tray. Talked, laughed and laughed. Ordered dinner from the Tavern menu. Guys had French dip - both brought half the sandwich home. I had the spicy shrimp and scallops - wonderful dish. What better way to spend an evening - friends, good food and beautiful surroundings.
My guests from Kansas and New York was quite impressed with the whole experience.
The relaxing and beautiful mountain back drop leaves memories that will last forever. The staff, servers, and even the Chef took time to make sure our every need was attended to. Everything on the table is fresh and all is made from the talents of the Briarwoods professionally trained kitchen staff. The food is so delicious, we wonder how you do it. And the portions leave plenty for the take home plate.
We make this our special place to dress up and take our Colorado Christmas Family photo. The food is always great and of course the pastry tray is fun. The decor is awesome and makes it like an old fashioned Christmas.
We went on a Monday night because it was our anniversary it was quiet and they set us next to the fireplace which was lovely. We love the appetizer dish, it has great variety and we enjoyed the shrimp as well as the crackers with all the spreads. My husband had the prime rib, it was really good and a large piece of meat. I had the medallions briarwood, it was great! It was the chicken piccata, so tender and delicious. Also lobster, very good and the tenderloin was tender and the sauce made it even better. We enjoy going this time of year because they have the place all decorated for the Christmas holiday. Everywhere you look is beautiful! We have gone about three or four anniversary dinners because it is our favorite!
I thought it was a bit over priced but in view of the setting and the service - I would not hesitate to dine there again but not too often.
This was our 3 or 4th time we have come to Briarwood for our anniversary and as usual the food was superb. Service this time was not up to the par we have had in the past. We had to wait for the next course long after finishing the prior one. It was if everything was in slow motion or the wait staff was shorthanded. We will return as I am sure this was an anomaly.
Yes our waiter hyped the french onion soup...so I tried it and the flavor was excellent but it was only lukewarm. Everything else was spectacular.
I went to afternoon tea and it is still the best afternoon tea in town (better than the Brown Palace). The soup was a little cold and it was a little loud, but it was cozy and warm and the wait staff was great.
Misunderstanding of the meaning of the words "medium well" for cooking the filet ignon. I would have called what we received "medium rare". Not to my taste. We had other guests and there was no time to adjust the problem. Other than that, we enjoyed the evening. One minor thing that could be corrected is the manner that the food is served. Arms reaching in front of our faces is not always necessary.
I've always been impressed with The Briarwood. Great service, good food and a lovely place!
Our group was seated in a quiet corner of the downstairs room, great view of fireplace and the filtered view of trees on outside patio. Our waitress was quick, efficient and charming, and the food was delicious. We'll return there again!
