REV. L E. LOWERY'S
COLUMN.
The following is an editorial writ
ten for The Watchman and Defender
But as Professor Gregory delivered hil
lecture two or three times in Colum
bia, and in as many different places
I thought that it would be well to re
produce it in The Indicator for thc
benefit of its readers.
The Bahai Movement.
On the fifth Sunday in January the
editor worshipped at the Sydney Parh
C. M. E. Church in Columbia by a
special invitation of the pastor, Rev.
N. F. Haygood, D. D. Arriving at the
church before the hour 'or beginning
the services, we were asked to take
a seat in the pulpit, which we did.
While sitting there lacing thu congre
gation ,aud watching the people as they
entered the temple ol worship, we no
ticed one ot the ushers as he con
ducted a stranger to a front seat. The
stranger was a man, and he was nul
preposebsiug in his appearance. He
looked ordinary. He sut quietly and
listened to a good sermon. He had
previously arranged with the pastor
io deliver a trou lecture in Sydney
Park Church at 4 o'clock p. m., and
at the closo of tho sermon, Pastor
Haygood introduced the stranger as
Prof. Louis G. Gregory of Washing
ton, D. C., and requested him to speak
of his lecture. Then Prof. Gregory
arose, and, in a good, clear voice, he
stated that a'. 4 o'clock he would dis
cuss the i iciples of "The Bahai
Movement," and invited everybudy in
Columbia to come out, and hear him.
But when we heard Dr. Haygood
say that "Professor G?regory of Wash
ington, D. C., will say a word," then
oar treacherous memory by associa
tion recalled the fact that about' 15
years ago, when we were stationed at
Old Bethel in Charleston, a man by
that same name came to that city,
and delivered several lectures on the
Bahai Religion in some ol' the churches
and halls. At that time there was a
brilliant young lawyer in Charleston
who was a member of Old Bethel. His
parents before him were members ot
this church. This young lawyer was
christened in this church and grew
up in the Sunday School, became a
pember and a trustee of the church.
This young lawyer took hold of this
new religion, and trifid to master it.
We heard him deliver an -address in
Obi Bethel at a platform- service' on
a Sabbath night, and his subject was
'Love." And this is the principle doc
trine of the Bahai religion. His ad
dens was.beautiful and eloquent, and
impressive. And this young lawyer
continued to wrestle with this Bahai
religion, trying to master it, until he
completely lost his mind, and had to
be brought to the insane asylum here
in Columbia.
But what is "The Bahai Movement
or Religion?" We heard Professor
Gregory at Sydney Park on the fifth
Sunday, afternoon in Columbia, and
can truly ' say for him that he was
really eloquent and' forceful. He held
the close attention of his audience for
more than an hour. And these are
the principles of his religion as he
taught them :
~TThe Search for Truth; The One
ness of Humanity; the Unity of Re
ligions; Religion and Science Agree;
Equality of Men and Women; Aban
donment of Prejudice; A Universal
Language; Universal Education; Uni
versal Peace; An International Tribu
nal; Solution of the Economic Prob
lem; The' Power of the Holy Spirit."
The principles seem to be all right',
but the Lord Jesus Christ is not recog
nized in them, and any religion that
bas no Christ In it, is not worthy of
the attention of intelligent Christian
people. And any attempt to teach,
enforce and build up a religion with
out Christ will be an utter failure.
The Bahai religion teaches love, but
it' ls not the love that Christ taught.
It is not the love that the Apostles
taught It is not the love that is pro
mulgated by Christianity. It seems to
us to be a head religion, and not a
heart religion. Nicodemus, a ruler
of the Jews, was a man who belived
In, and taught the Bahai religion, but
Christ told him that he must be born
again. And no man can love God and 1
his neighbor without' being converted, j
But ? another word concerning the
young lawyer who. was brought to the
asylum. After he was brought here
his parents wrote UB to visit him as
often as possible ,and we did so. The
first time we called to see him he
held in his hand a little pamphlet,
and we asked him for lt. He readily
gave it to us, and when we examined,
it, we found it to be a book on the
Bahai religion. We took it from him
and brought lt home, knowing that it
was this that caused him to lose his
m>nd. ; Ho eventually died 'in thje \
asylum, and we took his body home '
to Charleston, assisted at the funeral, j
and followed him to the grave. But
while this young mau embraced the
Bahai religion, he never left his
church, and his body was taken back
to the church of his parents and to the
church of his childhood, and from
this church he was buried. This is
what the Bahai religion did for a bril
Han young lawyer.
Professor Gregory spoke serer
times in Columbia, and each time 1
waa sbrowd enough to conceal his rc*
purpose. Ho displayed cousiderab
sagacious Judgment lu the wordu
and presentation of his new doctriu
But while the people admired his or
lory, they failed to accept his leac!
ing. The impression he seemed I
have made was short lived, and sou
passed away. But there may bc a fe
who like tho young lawyer refer rc
to above, who will follow the pr<
fessor. 1. E. E.

THE GREAT RACE CON
FERENCE WAS A
SUCCESS.
Notwithstanding the fact that
thc Race Conferance was not as
largely attended this year as in
some years of the past as are
so many other organizations
these days during strenous times
from every point of view, the
Race Conference was a success.
Many helpful addresses were
made on live topics o? the day by
men and women best prepared to
make them. Those who attend
ed the sessiors have reasons to
rejoice that they did and only
those who did not attend were
the losers of many helpful sug
gestions and new ideas.
The Conference ended Thurs
day night with thrilling speeches
by Dr. William H. Johnson of
Charleston; Kev. M. L. Carlisle,
(white) and Bishop K G. Finley,
(white).
AU officers were re elected.
I. S. Leevy, president; Mrs. L.
F. Holmes, Vice Pres. ; Prof. T.
L. Duckett, Secretary and L. ?.
Woods, Treasurer.
Among the Race Conference
visitors here this week were:
Hon. R. W. Westberrp, Sumter;
Kev. C. H. Asburrp of Timmons
ville. Dr. W. H. Johnson, Char
leston. Rev. I. D. Davis, Sumter.
Dr. R. S. Wilkinson, Orange
