THIS meeting was held in Holly, Mich., September 12-19, on a very pleasant ground near the village. The ground, water, and electric lights were gratuitously furnished by the town.
There was a good attendance of our people from the first of the meeting, and the evening meetings were, in the main, well attended by the citizens of the place.
In addition to the regular conference workers, there were present Brethren A. T. Jones, G. B. Thompson, A. G. Haughey, J. B. Blosser, and F. C. Gilbert, and the writer.
The camp-meeting proper was held only over one Sabbath, but for several days preceding the regular camp-meeting period, a workers' meeting was held which was attended by a marked manifestation of the Spirit's presence. This meeting served as an excellent forerunner to the camp-meeting which followed, in preparing the way for the spiritual feast. Hence when the Sabbath came, all were expecting a great outpouring of the Holy Spirit. For a time during this Sabbath forenoon service it looked as if the enemy would triumph, but God, by his Spirit, turned what appeared likely to be a defeat into a signal victory in reaching many souls who had been burdened by sin. In a marked manner it was demonstrated that the Holy Spirit must do the work. A large number of precious souls yielded themselves to the Lord. This good meeting was followed by another in the afternoon conducted by Elder G. B. Thompson, who delivered an impressive discourse on the subject of consecration, which was based on the words recorded in Ex. 32:29: “For Moses said, Consecrate yourselves to-day to the Lord, even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.” (Marginal rendering.)
Following the sermon nearly the whole congregation responded to the call to consecrate and reconsecrate themselves to God.
The business of the conference was attended with much of the Lord's blessing, which was evidenced by the harmony that characterized nearly every action that was introduced into the conference. Elder E. K. Slade was unanimously re-elected as the president of this conference.
The conference has been struggling under a burden of debt during the past year, but, to their great joy and satisfaction, the Lord has greatly blessed them, and their entire indebtedness has been liquidated.16
One problem of special importance with which the conference is wrestling is the establishment of a conference school at Holly, Mich., which is known as the Adelphian Academy. Prof. J. G. Lamson is the principal of the school, and is also carrying the chief burden in the construction of the new building. The school at present is being conducted in a large dwelling house located upon a seventy-seven-acre farm, which is the property of the school.
Brother E. I. Beebe was set apart to the gospel ministry by ordination during the closing hours of Sabbath, September 16. The ordination prayer was offered by Elder G. B. Thompson, and the charge was given by Elder A. T. Jones.
About forty candidates followed their Lord in baptism.
We believe that the laborers will return to their fields with greater courage than ever in carrying the message of truth to the people of the East Michigan Conference.

Japan and Korea
By F. W. Field
THIS is my first report since returning from General Conference. The work in this field has been progressing during the past summer. Souls have accepted the truth, and the believers are being built up. A native pastor has embraced the message while staying in Tokyo, and has remained to study the truth more fully. He has been engaged in evangelical work for some years, and will be able very soon to take part in our work. We are thankful for this new recruit, for several of our laborers are out of the work at present on account of illness or military service.
Also two Koreans have accepted the truth during the summer, while attending school here in Tokyo. They are men of good education and some experience, and give promise of becoming useful laborers. They are gaining a fair knowledge of the Japanese language, and so are able to study with our Japanese brethren. Quite a number of Korean students are attending various schools in and about Tokyo, and these new converts are very earnest in laboring among their countrymen; and already a number are much interested, and are studying with our brethren.
Through correspondence we learn that Brother Song Fun Cho has been laboring of late in Fusan, Korea, and quite a number are becoming interested in the truth. It will be remembered that this brother was one of the two Koreans baptized in Kobe, Japan, over a year ago. Fusan is the most southern port of Korea, just across the strait from Japan. Some of the new believers there have been corresponding with Brother Kuniya, and report that about thirty-five have begun to observe the Sabbath. Surely we are entering this field none too soon; and we hope and pray that there may be nothing to hinder our sending help to this needy field this fall.
[Elder W. R. Smith is doubtless in Korea by this time.—Ed.]
The work in Kobe is progressing very encouragingly. The sanitarium is well patronized, and the prospects are good for a prosperous season this fall and winter as the people return from the summer vacation. The work at the native branch sanitarium is also prosperous. All the available room is occupied by patients, and a good many outside patients come in for treatments. The donation of two hundred dollars for medical missionary work in Japan, made by the Pacific Union Conference, will be used to increase the facilities of these native laborers in Kobe. This assistance is certainly timely, and will be much appreciated. And in behalf of these workers I extend thanks for the same to our American brethren.
Our property and lives have been in danger here in Tokyo during the rioting of the past week. Disappointment over the terms of the treaty with Russia roused the feelings of the people against the government, then against the police for endeavoring to preserve the peace. A certain evangelist exhorted his hearers not to join in the rioting. This directed the wrath of a certain class against Christians in general, and the following night a number of churches were burned. We have not been molested in any way; but the vigilant authorities have caused our house, in common with other churches and meeting places, to be guarded by soldiers for several nights of late. Quiet is now restored, but the police are still very watchful against further disturbance. Truly we are living in uncertain times; and these troubles make us long for the everlasting reign of peace, and lead us to pray, “Thy kingdom come.”

Cook Islands
By A. H. Piper
RAROTONGA.—We are glad to be back here again, after our furlough of eleven months in New Zealand and Australia. We feel that there is no other place in the work of so much interest and inspiration as right on the “firing line.” What aggressiveness, what courage, what endurance, what self-denial, the Japanese have shown to the world for their emperor and country! and surely we, the people of the Most High, ought to show the same characteristics in our spiritual warfare for the King of kings.
It was our intention to open up the work in the other islands of the group, soon after our return, by canvassing for our literature; but early in January a hurricane leveled everything to the ground in these islands, and it is said that the natives are obliged to subsist on roots and fish, although I hardly think it is as bad as that. At any rate, we thought it not wise to make a canvassing trip to other parts at present.
We are now devoting our attention to getting more literature into the hands of the people of Rarotonga. Hitherto it has been a hard matter to sell our literature; but a great change has taken place. I have been working in the chief village, and have covered about two thirds of it, and without exception have placed a book in every home. Never before have I seen the natives so eager to buy our literature. Some stopped me in the middle of the canvass, to ask the price, and then went to get the money. Some had no money at the time, and asked me to trust them, promising to pay later. This is considered a very risky thing to do in these islands; but I feel impressed to comply with their request, and have not lost one penny in so doing. As they read the pages, may the Lord open their eyes to the truth, and may they obey it. During the past months two have begun to observe the Sabbath. One is a fine old native man of the “old school,” a deacon in one of the churches.

China
By W. C. HANKINS
KULANGSU.— Our hearts have been stirred as we have read of what God has wrought in the numerous mission fields; and our faith has become stronger in the speedy triumph of his cause in the earth, as we have read of the plans for a more aggressive work. We thank God that he is impressing the hearts of consecrated men and women to give themselves for the work in China.
As much as we would have liked to meet with the General Conference in its recent session, we are very thankful that we came to Amoy instead of waiting. Our arrival was very opportune. Many were beginning to believe that the work here was not going to be given foreign support, and Brother Keh was becoming very anxious for help. Our coming brought joy to his heart, and caused the people here to have more confidence in our work.
As yet we are only able to work among the English-speaking Chinese, but we are progressing with the language, and hope before long to be able to make ourselves understood. Now we are reaching many people through Brother Keh, as we spend every Sunday morning giving him Bible readings, through an interpreter, on the fundamental principles of the message, and as fast as he gets hold of the truth, he passes it on. He is kept quite busy giving the message to those who come to inquire.17
Some men of education who hold important positions here believe the Sabbath, and are investigating other points of the truth, but are still in the valley of decision. One very prominent man Brother Keh likens to Nicodemus, because he is inquiring secretly, for fear of what his superiors will say.
Just at present there is great excitement over the way people from this province have been treated by the American authorities at Manila. A paper has been circulated establishing an immense boycott on everything American. They will not buy American goods, travel on American steamers, or work for American firms; and if any one belongs to an American mission or goes to an American school, he is commanded to leave and join some other; and any one working for American firms must leave, or he will be included in the boycott. This huge boycott extends throughout China, I am told. We are waiting to see what the outcome will be. Our teacher tells us that there is not much excitement in Kulangsu, but that it is quite intense in Amoy.
We feel confident of the guiding hand of the Lord being upon all these events, and are not afraid but that it will all work out for the good of his cause. We are thankful to be here in China, and are hoping to see a goodly band of laborers enter this destitute field to make a quick work of giving the message to its four hundred millions. Now is the time for them to come and get a working knowledge of the language; and then, when the providences of God call for a grand forward movement, we shall be ready to respond. The language is not nearly so formidable as we supposed it would be. We hope no one will be held back for fear he can not master it.
We have made only a small beginning in this vast field. Surely it is time that we went to work in earnest to give the third angel's message to China and the other unworked fields of the Orient. May God send forth workers to these needy fields, is our constant prayer.

Turkey
By G. Yeram
THESSALONICA.—Thessalonica has a population of one hundred and sixty thousand, more than half of whom are Jews. The remainder are Greek, Bulgarian, Armenian, Rumanian, and small European colonies. This city is the pride of Macedonia. It is a little more free than any other city in the Turkish empire. Many ships are coming and going, as it is a large commercial center.
Macedonia annually produces more than one hundred and twenty kilos of opium, and many millions of kilos of tobacco. The door of their exportation is Thessalonica.
The greater part of the city is among walls, which were built anciently to protect the city from the enemy. The Tour Blanche—White Tower—is a good sample. A part of these walls is in ruins now.
We had a talk with one of the editors of Journal de Salonique, published in this city. He asked me many questions concerning our faith, and published a brief sketch of our conversation, in the paper. This paper is published by the Jews. Two days ago I had another talk with one of the editors of a Jewish paper published in this city. He also will write an article.
A long time ago I asked for tracts and papers to distribute, but am sorry to say that I have not received any. We need them very much. We received with much love and gratitude the greetings of the General Conference office. We express our sincere love to you all. May God help and strengthen you.

Jamaica
By HUBERT FLETCHER
“The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.” Prov. 11:25.
It is heaven-like to give. The way to receive is to give. The blessings of heaven come through the avenue of giving. It is more blessed to give than to receive. This truth has been demonstrated among some of our conferences in the home land as they have shared their means and men with those in foreign lands. And this is the principle the Lord would have his people adopt.
Let us as conferences, churches, and individuals divide that which we have with our less favored brethren who are drifting down to death without the light and privileges of the third angel's message. “Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.”
The Jamaica Conference has shared its laborers with our Haytian brethren, Elder W. J. Tanner and his family having taken up work among them. And now we are planning for the sailing of Brother Frank Hall and his family to the Cayman Islands.
The cloud is lifted, and as a conference we want to keep moving forward with the host of Israel as they march toward the promised land. Indeed, the missionary spirit is taking hold of the people, demonstrating the fact that we are a missionary people. And what is this but an omen of the approaching end? Our conference is prospering. This is shown by the increase of the tithe.

Canadian Union Meetings
By William Ambrose Spicer
THE Canadian Union Conference held two camp-meetings during the summer season. The reports from their field and institutional work showed that the organization of the union has brought new strength into the work in eastern Canada, and bound the different portions of that field more closely together in common service.
Quebec
The Quebec Conference meeting was held at South Stukely, not far from the Vermont border. The brethren had planned pitching the camp in a larger place, but were disappointed in securing a location, and at the last moment decided upon South Stukely, a country village where quite a number of Seventh-day Adventist families reside. In the closing days of the meeting, however, the believers came in from a radius of twenty-five miles, and there was a fair representation of the conference membership. These days were days of blessing in the camp, and the Quebec brethren face the new year's work with fresh courage and inspiration. Ten persons were baptized. Elder H. E. Rickard was re-elected president of the conference.
During the year past the conference has made its way out of debt, and now if all the believers are faithful in tithes and offerings, there is no reason why the plans of the conference committee for a more aggressive work in Quebec should not be carried out. The Knowlton Sanitarium has had an encouraging year, showing a working profit of over eight hundred dollars. For so young an institution this means that the Lord has especially blessed, and that Dr. White and his helpers have put in earnest work. Nearly every day members of the sanitarium family drove over to the camp at South Stukely.
The nurses' training-school has graduated some of its first workers, two of whom will doubtless start treatment-room work in some of the towns of eastern Canada. The Quebec Conference has a good number of young people engaged in business or attending school at South Stukely, Fitch Bay, and other places, who must be depended upon to grow into service in this needy field.
A large proportion of the province of Quebec is French-speaking and Catholic. We know what that means as a missionary undertaking. A special fund was started at the camp-meeting for securing a church building or meeting hall in the city of Montreal. Brother George Skinner earnestly pleaded the cause of that great metropolis of Canada, two-thirds French and one-third English, and the conference is united in desiring to see a strong, aggressive work carried forward in that city. They need the prayers and assistance of brethren in more favored parts as they enter upon the campaign in these populous centers which have been neglected so long.
Meetings of the Canadian Union Committee were held during the camp-meeting. Elder William Guthrie was present from the Maritime Conference and Elders Thurston and Leland from Ontario, all rendering help in the meetings. All who attended the camp-meeting confidently expect to see aggressive moves made in the province of Quebec during the coming year.
Ontario
The Ontario camp-meeting was held this year also in a country district rather than in a large town, inasmuch as the brethren decided to have it in the vicinity of their new school at Lorne Park, so that the brethren and sisters in attendance might get acquainted with the educational work now well started in Ontario. It was a small meeting, but a good meeting, with a double portion of blessing on each Sabbath. Seven were baptized during the meeting.
The work is moving on in Ontario. Here again one can see that no longer does the plant of this truth find its root over the border in the United States as once it did. It has root in Canadian soil, and with the Lorne Park school entering upon its second year of service and preparing to train Ontario's young people on their own soil, one can readily see that the truth is making long strides in Canada. These institutional training centers in the field mean fresh hope and courage to the believers, and new strength for the development of the work in Canada. Hitherto the Canadian young people have come over into the States for training, too often to grow up into the work on this side, rather than in their own more needy Canadian field. Now with the educational advantages in evangelistic and medical lines which may be found in Canada, we shall see greater strength brought into the work.
Elder Eugene Leland and his wife are in charge of the training-school at Lorne Park, which has a substantial building, with a fifty-acre farm surrounding it. The brethren are finding that with proper attention to enriching the soil their land brings forth abundantly, and during the year, I believe, about fifteen hundred dollars has been paid on the school obligations by means of “Christ's Object Lessons” and otherwise. In fact, during the year about two thousand five hundred dollars of conference obligations has been met.
Elder A. O. Burrill was re-elected president of the conference, and it is planned that he with two assistants shall devote at least a portion of the autumn and winter to a vigorous personal campaign among the companies with “Christ's Object Lessons,” with a view to raising funds for the educational work.
One or two small treatment rooms have been opened in Ontario, one at Lindsay, with Sisters Baker and Johnson in charge, having been especially blessed in securing influence among the people and bringing souls into the truth. A company of believers has grown up around this little plant, and it gives our people in Canada an idea of what can be done by consecrated evangelistic nurses in all the country.
Elder Thurston, president of the Canadian Union, was present at the18Ontario meeting, and Elder C. McVagh, of western Pennsylvania, also attended. Ontario gave Brother McVagh a warm invitation to return to labor permanently in his native Canada whenever the way opens.
With the Knowlton Sanitarium growing into strength in Quebec, and with the Lorne Park school prepared to give a thorough training for field service, the Canadian Union brethren have good reason to thank God and take courage.

SIX MILE RUN.—The tent effort that was started in this place on June 22 was continued longer than was at first intended. A good interest was manifested, and many took their stand for the truth, but no suitable place for holding religious services was available, so we were obliged to continue our meetings in the tent until September 20. A hall was then procured which, when cleaned and furnished, made quite a neat and comfortable place of worship.
On the twenty-third of September this new company of Sabbath-keepers met in the hall, and were organized as a church. Brother J. E. Veach, an active member of the conference committee, and W. F. Schwartz were present. Thirty-one persons were received into church fellowship. On the following day (Sunday) one more was added, and on Monday morning seven were baptized, and in the evening nine were taken into the church. The company now numbers forty-one, and there are twelve persons keeping the Sabbath who have not yet united with the church.
On Sabbath, September 23, after the organization was formed, this company celebrated the ordinances of the Lord’s house for the first time. On September 24 they held a business meeting, at which they appointed a building committee, also decided upon a lot that should be purchased for the erection of a church, and before the meeting closed, the amount needed to pay for the lot was raised, with three dollars over.
The Lord has wrought a mighty work in this place, and we are happy to see so many precious souls walking in the light of the third angel’s message. May this new company have your prayers, and may God richly bless those who shall lead them on in the way of eternal life.
September 27 Mr. Schwartz and I left this field, and came to our home at Hollidaysburg, leaving the work in the hands of Brethren Myers and Veach. We praise God for all his blessings, and for his keeping power.

Eastern Pennsylvania

BROTHER CHARLES LOUGHHEAD and his wife, of Alba, Pa., were recently arrested twice for keeping their store open on Sunday. As I was present at the trial, I will endeavor to give some of the details of the case. They were first complained of by Mrs. M. L. Packard, who is the leader of the W. C. T. U. of that place; but by reason of a defect in the indictment, the first case was quashed. The second arrest was caused by Mrs. Packard's husband. The trial was held on Wednesday, September 27, in the town of Canton, Pa. At the very opening of the case it was plainly to be seen that the justice before whom the case was tried, was strongly in favor of the prosecuting party; after the trial he confessed to me that the case was settled in his mind two weeks before the trial.
The lawyer for the defense called only three witnesses, and then submitted the case to the court. In his plea he dwelt largely upon the spirit that had led to the arrest, showing that it was wholly one of spite. At the close of his remarks he stated to the court that the minister of the denomination to which the defendants belonged was present, and requested the court to grant me the privilege of stating before the court some of the principles of our faith, that the court might better understand the motive that led the defendants to work upon the first day of the week. This, to my great surprise, the court granted, giving me liberty to present as fully as I saw fit the foundation principles of our faith. Never in my life had I realized so fully the presence of my Saviour as at that hour. I can testify now, from an individual experience, that when we are brought before rulers and councils for our faith, it shall be given us in that hour what we shall say.
I dwelt quite fully upon the spirit of the Sunday movement, showing that it was the spirit of the Dark Ages. I then spoke upon the origin of Sunday-keeping, calling attention to the fact that the only ground its advocates have to stand upon is the teachings, practise, and mandates of the Catholic Church. The iniquitous Sunday laws now upon our statute-books, if enforced, would compel every Christian to turn his back upon his God, and honor the mandates of the Catholic Church. After quoting the Sabbath commandment as recorded in Ex. 20:8-11, I turned to the judge, and urged him to consider well the great responsibilities under which he was placed; that he had the power to pronounce sentence upon Brother and Sister Loughhead that would put them behind the prison bars for obeying their God, but that there was a higher tribunal before which he must appear, and that the standard of that judgment would not be the Sunday law of the land, but the sacred Word of God, which says the seventh day, not the first, is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God.
The prosecuting lawyer then wanted to know if I would be free to answer some questions that he would like to ask for further light upon the principles presented. I replied affirmatively. Then he proceeded to ask several questions, which gave me an excellent opportunity to lay before those present the true relation of religion and the state.
Then, after making a few remarks to the court, the lawyer submitted the case. With a trembling voice the judge said that he would be only too glad to release both of the persons in question, but that he was sworn to enforce the law. He found no grounds for the charge against Sister Loughhead, but pronounced a fine of four dollars or six days' imprisonment upon Brother Loughhead.
Immediately at the close of the trial, the judge came to me and said that I ought to make that plea before Congress; he believed much good would result from it. The prosecuting lawyer accompanied me several squares from the place of trial, and urged me to call on him whenever I came to Canton.
Brother Loughhead plainly stated to the court that he would not pay his fine, but no hand was laid upon him; and after remaining in the town several hours, he went to his home unmolested, to await future developments.
We all felt to praise the Lord for the victory that had been won for his truth.

_General Conference Committee Actions_
By A. G. DANIELLS; G. A. IRWIN; W. A. SPICER
Since the return from the camp-meetings, members of the General Conference Committee in Washington have held some meetings for counsel. The following is a brief summary of actions which will be of general interest:—
Elder C. H. Keslake, of New Jersey, was appointed to the work in Newfoundland.
The offer of the Vermont Conference to pay the salary of a worker in China was thankfully accepted.
It was decided that the readings for the week of prayer should be printed in the REVIEW.
Elder E. W. Snyder was appointed director of the Cuban mission field. Brethren I. E. Moore and O. L. Dart were associated with Brother Snyder as a mission committee.
The offer of the Wisconsin Conference to send Brother B. L. Anderson to China, continuing his support, was thankfully accepted.
Elder L. H. Christian, of Illinois, was appointed to take charge of the Danish-Norwegian work in the United States and Canada, in the place of Elder N. P. Nelson, deceased.
It was voted that in harmony with the recommendation of the Foreign Department council at College View, the field of the German work in North America be divided into two territories by a line running north and south between Illinois and Indiana, dividing by States, each of these territories to be in charge of a director.
It was voted that Elder G. F. Haffner be assigned to the western division of the German work, and that Elder O. E. Reinke act as superintendent of the German work in the eastern division.
It was voted to approve the proposal of the General Conference Medical Council to hold its medical missionary convention at College View in November.
The return of Brother and Sister L. J.19Burgess to India was approved, and the India mission committee was requested to co-operate with them in establishing their new mission for the Hindi-speaking people.
Other actions were taken involving the movement and transfer of laborers, announcement of which will be made later, as the recommendations are accepted and carried out.

AGENCY.— Our camp-meeting at this place closed September 17, but the interest being good, it was thought best to continue meetings for a time. The attendance has increased, and the whole village is stirred over the truth, which is presented with power. The minister of the Congregational church has discontinued his meetings, to give his people an opportunity to attend our services, and he himself is present at most of them. The testing truths of the message have not yet been presented, but two have already taken their stand with us, and promise to keep the Sabbath. The Spirit of God is working with the people.

The Opening at Walla Walla College
By M. E. Cady
According to announcement the Walla Walla College was opened September 6, and the school has now been in operation for a little more than two weeks. The time of opening was about one month earlier than last year. When we consider that the month of September is the harvest month, and that students can make better wages during this month than any other of the vacation, we feel that the opening has been better than we could expect. At the present time the entire enrolment of the college is one hundred and twenty; a few more than one hundred meet in the chapel each morning, while the remainder meet in what has been considered the church-school department of the college.
Quite a large number of the students who were here last year have returned, and during the month of October many others will come. We expect quite an increase in the attendance about the first of October, as that will be near the time of the opening of the school last year.
In looking over the matriculation blanks, we find that sixty out of one hundred students have chosen definite lines of work, as follows: ministry, 10; Bible work, 6; church-school teaching, 12; music teaching, 8; business lines, 6; nursing, 10; medical profession, 8. We are glad to find that the more advanced classes are filling well; we have seven in chemistry, twelve in physics, fifteen in algebra, and ten in geometry. These classes will increase considerably in size as other students arrive. I am glad to report an older and more mature class of students coming into the school this year.
In addition to the regular collegiate work, the industrial department is also receiving its proper share of attention. The students are taking hold of this work with a good spirit. We find that some who were feeling a little reluctant about taking up industrial work are now in full sympathy with it, and have made request to take up even more than one line of industry. Teachers and students are associated together in this work, and it brings in a spirit of fellowship and good-will. There are fifteen young ladies in the dress-making department; and the other departments, printing, baking, carpentry, engineering, cooking, farming, broom making, and simple treatments, have all the way from two to six in each department.
We feel very grateful for the blessing of the Lord thus far in our work, and for the prospects before us for the year; but as we visit throughout the field and come in touch with the youth, we find many who are very anxious to enjoy the privileges of the Walla Walla College, and many have determined to lay their plans now to enter the school the coming year; and so while we have quite a good prospect for the present year, we feel that we are now sowing the seed which will make the year to come even more prosperous than the present one.
Students can enter the college at any time of the year, although it is far more preferable to come at the beginning. Those who are six or eight weeks late will be placed at some inconvenience, but it will be better to come that much late than not at all. The second semester, or term, of the school begins January 10. At this time new classes will be formed, and it will be a good time for students to come to the school who can not come the first semester.
Those desiring information are requested to send for calendar by addressing Walla Walla College, College Place, Wash. Further information than that contained in the calendar can be obtained by writing to the undersigned.
