Law and Order Leagues Cause Disorder

A RECENT occurrence at Nebraska City, Neb., affords an instructive comment on the question of the necessity and utility of the “law and order” leagues which exist in many cities for the purpose, mainly, of securing the enforcement of the Sunday laws. A baseball game had been announced to be played in Nebraska City on Sunday, July 20. Members of the “law and order” league swore out a warrant for the arrest of the two ball teams. All was orderly until the sheriff, armed with this warrant, came on the grounds, and in the presence of an angry crowd which had gathered to see the game, arrested several of the players, and took them to a justice’s office, where a number of clergymen were on hand awaiting developments. A part of the angry crowd at the ball grounds followed, and when some of the clergymen left the justice’s office, they became the center of an incipient riot. A companion of one of them was knocked down by a stone, and another was chased home, and later applied to the mayor for a police guard for himself and his church property. The day previous the citizens had, by “practically a unanimous vote,” declared in favor of Sunday ball.
Note the point: a state of orderliness was turned into a state of general disorder and incipient riot, by this league, which existed ostensibly to maintain order! What could more plainly show that the desire of such organizations for order, in itself, is a mere pretense? The only order about which they care is that which comes secondary to the enforcement of Sunday observance. Disorder is preferable to order with them if only it can serve the cause of Sunday legislation—the enforcement of an obsolete, un-American, unjust, religious enactment. It is almost unnecessary to add that the cause of religion has been deeply hurt in Nebraska City by this appeal of the clergy to the civil power.

Facing the Wide World

By W. A. Spicer

The treasurer's report of mission offerings for the second quarter, ending June 30, is most cheering. The receipts were $29,403, the largest sum ever given in any ordinary quarter. Many are thinking and praying and sacrificing, in order that this message may be quickly sent through the whole wide world. Pray that as every dollar of this consecrated stream flows out upon the barren fields, it may be a blessing to souls, and bring the ending of this work a little nearer. We want to see as large a proportion as possible of our mission funds used in keeping the living preacher among the great masses in new territory who have never heard that there is a coming Saviour.
The fields are expecting additional workers this autumn. A number are already under appointment to go. A score, at the very least, should be sent out, and that would represent but a pitiful answer to the Macedonian cry that rings from all the ends of the earth. But the Mission Board can arrange to send workers only as the money comes in. The present work takes about all the present income. If the work is to be enlarged, the offerings must be still further increased. Let us not forget the regular weekly offering. Thousands are forgetting it. And let all pray the Lord of the harvest to send forth these additional laborers, who should by all means reach the fields this fall. Next to going to the fields is the joy of helping to send somebody else.
W. A. SPICER, Secretary Mission Board.

S. H. Lane Attends Camp Meetings

BROTHER S. H. LANE is attending the camp meetings in the Southwestern Union Conference.

Mission Work at the Summer Assembly

Brother W. A. Spicer, the secretary of the Mission Board, is spending this week at Berrien Springs, where he is now presenting the subject of missions and mission work to the Summer Assembly.

European General Conference Delegates

When this paper reaches the large proportion of its readers, the delegates to the European General Conference will doubtless be well on their way across the Atlantic, as they expected to sail from Bremen, July 29, on the steamship “Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse,” due in New York, August 5.

Correction of a Typographical Error

By Editor

In the issue of July 8, page 5, column 1, line 12, a typographical error crept into the REVIEW. It reads, “Neither can we overcome by anything that he has passed through and conquered for us.” It should read, “Neither can we be overcome,” etc. The reading is so exactly wrong that we deem it advisable to correct it.

Pope Leo and the Taft Negotiations

“HAVING started direct relations with Washington is one of the happiest events of my pontificate,” Pope Leo is reported as having said in a recent speech. There is nothing hazy or uncertain about the conception held at the Vatican regarding the meaning of the Taft negotiations, whatever ideas may be entertained concerning them in this country.

Medical Missionary Reports

By Editor

This issue of the Review is largely devoted to reports from the American Medical Missionary College and the sanitariums in this country, some of the usual departments being omitted in order to make room for this matter. The reports from these institutions are encouraging, and emphasize the importance of the work which they are doing in reaching the people with the complete gospel. We are confident that every page will be read with interest.

Emmanuel Missionary College

By J. D. Gowell

We believe it will be pleasing to God to set apart the second Sabbath in August (August 9) as a special day for the seeking the Lord for the success of the Emmanuel Missionary College, that the buildings may be erected in time for the next school year, and that means may come in so that the work may not be hindered; and that wisdom may be imparted to the managers, that the buildings may be erected in harmony with the will of God, being made plain and comfortable, and that no debts be left standing against the Emmanuel Missionary College when completed. A letter by Prof. P. T. Magan will be sent out to all the churches, setting forth the importance of the work, which will be read to the churches Aug. 2, 1902.
J. D. GOWELL.

The Ontario Conference

By Helen McKinnon

The Ontario Conference and general camp meeting was held at Galt, June 12–22, a good representation being present from all the churches. It was the largest camp meeting ever held in Ontario.
There was a large attendance from the city, and in many ways the citizens showed their interest and appreciation. Elder Huntington, recently from Indiana, was left with a corps of workers to follow up the interest.
The reports showed that during the last year over sixty persons had united with the various churches. The increase in tithes and offerings over the previous year amounted to about $1,700. There was also an increase in the sales of books, the sales for the year amounting to $3,849.42, wholesale.
In the business meetings considerable attention was given to the school work, and plans were laid to start an industrial school in the near future. During the meeting three thousand dollars was raised for this purpose.
The following-named officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, J. W. Collie; Vice-president, T. H. Robinson; with S. G. Huntington, Charles Stewart, and H. C. Basney their associates on the executive committee; Secretary and Treasurer, Helen McKinnon; Secretary of the Tract Society, Helen McKinnon; Secretary of the Sabbath-school Association, J. C. Rogers; Treasurer, Helen McKinnon.
Elder Brunson was with us through the entire meeting, the burden of his message being a closer acquaintance with Christ. Elder Thompson, president of the New York Conference, was with us a few days, also Dr. Paulson.
As the meeting came to its close, all expressed their thankfulness for the privilege of attending, and for the rich blessing received.
HELEN MCKINNON.
