Reports of Labor.

By Editor

ELDER ISRAEL informs us that he has received several very encouraging reports from the ministers of California, but they came too late for this paper. A word of explanation may be needed. The President of the General Tract Society, some time ago, requested us to get the paper into the mail earlier in the week for the convenience of the societies. Our arrangement with the presses is such that now the form containing the Missionary Department must be made ready for the press on Sunday. Reports ought to be in on Friday, though short reports might be inserted if received early Sunday morning. We are always pleased to receive reports from our laborers, and it is our desire to publish them fresh from the hands of the writers. By sending reports direct to the office some time will be saved.
The reports from the tents running in the Eastern States are generally favorable. Stormy weather hinders in some places. Altogether the state of the work is encouraging.
