CLOSING IN.

A GLANCE at any modern map of the United States with reference to the location of our Conferences, will prove a very interesting and suggestive field of study for those who are interested in the spread of this work. The California and North-Pacific Conferences span the whole Pacific coast from Mexico to the British possessions. From these an influence is going out eastward into the territories of Idaho, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona.
East of the Rocky Mountains, our western frontier presents a solid phalanx of Conferences, from the British possessions on the north, to the Gulf of Mexico on the south; namely, Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, and Texas. From these an influence is working westward into Wyoming, Colorado, and New Mexico.
Thus the gap is closing up; and if we may judge from present prospects, the sound of the message will soon be heard in every State and Territory of the Union.
