The Newly Assigned Pastor Says There Must be an Unconditional Surrender to the Discipline of the Church. Rev. J, S. Newhart, pastor of the Won church of the Evangellcnl Association, Pottsville, who was recently appointed by Bishop S. C. Breyfogle and the Presid ing Elders of the Eastern Pennsylvania Conference to takechargeof thoEbenezer Evangelical church of this town, made an official visit here yesterday afternoon and called at the IlKllAU) office. He stated that his mission was as a minister of the church to save and administer to the wants of the people, ltev. Newhart also stated that he ex pects, ere long, to arrange regular ser vices here and has issued the following as a part of an official pastoral address to tho members of the congregation on the criti cal stage through which the church has passed of latet "To those members of the Evangelical Association, scattered throughout the bounds of the Esst Pennsylvania Confer once, who have been associated with the so-called "minority movement," but whose sincere and evident purpose it has been throughout to remain In the denonii nation ; In the name of our blessed Lord, greeting I "We desire to say to you, therefore, that in placing the properly authorized pastors into the various pulpits and In restoring a normal status In the congregations, not one among you who desires to remain In the church with us, and who sincerely subscribes to its doctrines, submits to its order and discipline, and accepts the conclusions of tho General Conference, held at Indianapolis, Ind., In 1891, will be barred out, but on the contrary your membership with nil Its rights, privileges, and obligations will be sacredly regarded. We speak In the name of East Pa. Conference of the Evangelical Association nnd voice the sentiment of the Church at large. "Do not allow yourselves, because of any personal preference or prejudice, to become permanently alienated in your nuections and attachment from the church we all hove reason to love so much. We entreat you In the Bacred name of our Lord to worship in the church at whose altars you were saved, unuer whose ministrations you were edified in Christ Jesus, and whose history and spirit wo all hold in such honored ond hallowed memory I Your present and eternal welfare Is our highest concern, and that none of those whom God has given as a heritage to the Evangelical Association should be lost either to the church or to her dlvlno Lord, our highest nuroose." ltev. Newhart spoke quite frankly with the reporter on the situation of the affairs of the church and admitted that one of the objects of hla visit was identical with that of Rev. Fredericks' visit here lost week to gain possession of the church keys. He called upon several members of the church, he said, and they told him of the action taken by the congregational meeting on Monday night, which, of course, put out of question the surrender of the keys without legal proceedings. In answer to a question as to whether he had heard of the congregation's decision to ascertain the price at which the church could be bought Rev. Newhart said that such overtures would be useless ; that the Evangelical Association intended to place Itself in possession here and had no prop erty for sale. In regard to the standing of the con gregatlou the visitor said that the Evan gelical Association did not propose to drive anybody out of tho fold, but rather aimed to keep everybody within it, sub ject, of course, to the discipline of the party which had been successful in the battle through the courts. Such members who may be unwilling to subject them selves to that discipline will he allowed to depart and will be marked on the records of the Evangelical Association as "ille gally withdrawn." When usked as to the standing of Rev. LIchtenwalner and other clergymen who Bided with the Dubsltes in the conflict, Rev. Newhart said lie wished to say that Rev. LIchtenwalner and himself had been warmest friends and colleagues In tho Evangelical Association work for the past sixteen years and were still warm friends personally. As to the standing of the clergymen who were on the side that lost the court battles he was sorry to say they had openly opposed the prevailing powers and were therefore marked ns "Illegally withdrawn." They are no longer mem bers of the Evangelical Association clernv. Bishop Ilreyfogel will conduct service In the Pottsville Evangelical church next Sunday evening nnd will hold service in the church of this town later on. Rev, Newhart said the Association would not be In a hurry to institute legal proceed lngs to gain possession of the church, as it did not want to put costs on the con gregation. He had hopes that the keys would soon be surrendered to save the expense. As Boon as they are he will take possession. GOOD NEWS, IF TRUE. ReportedThat the! Collieries Will Work Full Time.
