By Harrison Grant; D. P. Curtis
The sixteenth annual session of the Minnesota Conference convened, according to appointment, at Hutchinson, McLeod Co., June 21, 1877. The President, Eld. H. Grant, called the meeting to order. Opened with prayer. There being a vacancy in the office of secretary, by reason of the death of Bro. O. W. Pierce, D. P. Curtis was appointed to that office. Upon call for credentials of delegates, forty responded, representing thirty-two churches. Some five or six churches were not represented. On motion, The Chair appointed the usual committees, as follows: On Nominations, John Olive, John Emerson, R. S. Johnson. On Credentials and Licenses, Stephen Pierce, D. P. Curtis, H. W. Babcock. On Resolutions, D. P. Curtis, O. H. Pratt, N. Battin. Auditing Committee, B. F. Lee, Wm. Harper, John Curtis, Jos. L. House, J. M. Little, Henry Young. Adjourned to call of Chair. President in the chair. Prayer by Eld. Hill. The list of delegates was read and corrected. The new churches of Artichoke, Geneva, Grand Meadow, Joy, Lake Johanna, Sauk Rapids, New Auburn, and Wrightstown, numbering in the aggregate 85 members, with S. B. pledges to the amount of $147.54, applied for admittance, and were received with their delegates. Two companies, one, of 18 members, at Milford, Ia., raised up by Bro. F. W. Morse, and the other, also of 18 members, at Beaver Creek, Rock Co., Minn., raised up by Brn. S. Fulton and W. B. Hill, were taken under the watchcare of the Conference. The Nominating Committee submitted their report, which was adopted, as follows: For President, Harrison Grant; Executive Committee, Harrison Grant, W. H. Hall, Calvin Kelsey; Secretary, D. P. Curtis; Treasurer, W. I. Gibson. Voted, That hereafter, the treasurer keep an account of his expenses in time and money, and that such account be audited and paid, the same as other accounts. Voted, That the treasurer be authorized to deposit money in bank, if he shall think best to do so, at the risk of the Conference. Voted, That the Executive Committee be instructed to appoint a Camp-meeting Committee, at their discretion. The report of the Executive Committee, in the matter of the Mankato church building, which was referred to them at the last session, was presented, and, after some discussion, was recommitted, with instructions to exercise their discretion in the matter during the coming year, and report their action at the next annual session of the Conference. The Committee on Credentials and Licenses reported, recommending, 1. That credentials be renewed to Elds. Stephen Pierce, Harrison Grant, H. W. Babcock, D. P. Curtis, G. M. Dimmick, L. H. Ellis, Wm. B. Hill, C. Nelson, N. Battin, Peter Lindblad, and John Fulton; 2. That Bro. John I. Collins be ordained, and receive credentials at this meeting; 3. That licenses be granted to Brn. Samuel Fulton, M. S. Spicer, John E. Norstrom, H. E. Hanson, John E. Moore, E. H. Pullen, Lewes Kiallberg, John W. Moore, Elbra Durfee, Warren Walker, E. A. Curtis, F. W. Morse, D. C. Burch; 4. That the applications of Brn. Jas. S. Brower, W. T. Henton, and B. F. Link, be referred to the Executive Committee. Moved, That this Conference lend its credit to the Health Institute at Battle Creek, to the amount of $100, to aid Bro. Battin in recovering his health. Pending the motion, adjourned to call of Chair. Conference convened at 5½ P. M., June 25, upon the adjournment of the T. and M. Society. The motion pending was amended so as to read, “Lend its credit to the amount that may be needed, in the judgment of the Executive Committee,” and passed. The treasurer reported as follows:— Received during year, $2763.00 Remaining in treasury, $772.89 A communication was presented from the Maiden Rock church, and referred to a committee, composed of Brn. W. H. Hall, W. I. Gibson, and R. S. Johnson. A petition was presented from the River Falls church, asking to be released from this Conference, that it might join the Wisconsin Conference, which was referred to the same committee, with instructions to report as soon as practicable. The financial and statistical report of the secretary for the last Conference year was presented and read. Being incomplete, it was accepted and laid on the table. The following resolution was presented, and, after some discussion, adopted:— Resolved, That the several churches of this Conference be requested to present to the next annual session a full written report of their condition, stating when they were organized, by whom organized, what was their number at their organization, what is their present number, the names of their officers—elder or leader, clerk, and treasurer—the amount paid during the year for the support of the cause, and any other items that may show the progress of the cause in the church, and that these letters be read before the Conference, as a part of the business thereof. The Committee on Resolutions presented their report, as follows:— Resolved, 1. That in the death of Bro. O. W. Pierce, our Conference has sustained the loss of a lover of the cause of present truth,—one who was, in his sphere, a faithful and consistent worker; and that we hereby extend our sympathy to father Pierce in the loss of his only son, and also to sister Pierce, in her loss of a faithful and devoted husband. 2. That we approve the recommendation of the General Conference Committee in relation to regular quarterly meetings in all the churches on the first Sabbath and first-day in January, April, July, and October, of each year, as presented in the REVIEW of June 7; and that we recommend the adoption of the plan by all of our churches. 3. That we believe the tithing system, as taught in the Scriptures and practiced by the ancient people of God, to be the only God-ordained system of raising means to carry on all the operations of the people of God, and that if this system could be universally adopted by the churches, our treasuries would be constantly supplied with ample means to carry forward the work of the Lord in all its branches. 4. That we feel a deep and abiding interest in and sympathy with our Scandinavian brethren, and will aid them by our prayers, and such ministerial help as we may be able to afford them. 5. That we clearly recognize the hand of God in the establishment and prosperity of the cause of present truth in Europe; that we hail its advancement with unfeigned delight; and that we pledge ourselves to sustain our faithful missionaries by our earnest prayers, and their work by our means. 6. That the Sabbath-school is an efficient help in carrying forward the work in which we are engaged; and that we recommend to all the churches that they make an earnest effort to gather all the children of Sabbath-keepers, and others, if they are able, into it. 7. That we recommend to the churches, as far as they are able, to procure the Progressive Bible Lessons, by Bro. G. H. Bell, published at the REVIEW Office, and use them in the Sabbath-school. 8. That we request Bro. Wm. B. Hill to present at our next Conference, a discourse upon the subject of Bible study in the Sabbath-school. 9. That in the manifestations of the divine presence in this meeting, carried on without any help from abroad, we recognize the fulfillment of the promises of God to those who rely upon him, and also a fresh evidence that ours is the work of the Lord, and that he is leading out in and directing it. 10. That the proceedings of this meeting be forwarded to the REVIEW Office for publication. The first resolution was adopted without remark. The second elicited discussion, pending which the committee to which were referred the Maiden Rock and River Falls matters, returned, and presented their report. In the matter of the Maiden Rock church, the committee found no jurisdiction in the matter, and returned the same back to the Conference, and asked to be discharged. In the matter of the petition of the River Falls church, the committee reported that, from all the evidence obtained from Bro. Olive and Bro. McMillen, this church is in a state of trial, and the petition cannot be granted. Report received and adopted, and the committee discharged. Adjourned to close of evening service. FOURTH SESSION, 9:30 P. M.
Prayer by Eld. Babcock. Discussion of the second resolution resumed. After remarks by many of the brethren, the resolution was unanimously adopted. The remainder of the resolutions were in turn adopted unanimously. Voted, To grant a license to Bro. J. S. Brower, whose application had been previously referred to the Executive Committee; also to Brn. A. Mead and C. Kelsey. By request, the name of the Koronas church was changed to Manannah. The brethren present raised, by voluntary contribution, the sum of $78 to start the tents. Minutes were read and approved and the Conference adjourned. MICHIGAN T. AND M. SOCIETY.
By J. Fargo; Mrs. S. H. Lane
According to appointment, the Michigan Tract and Missionary Society held its third State quarterly meeting for the year at Battle Creek, July 1. But few were in attendance from abroad. Probably this was owing, in some degree, to a misunderstanding of the time when the meeting was to be held. For the same reason, perhaps, some districts failed to report. However, reports were received from all the districts except three. Reports from ten districts show labor performed as follows:— No. of families visited, 1210; letters written, 1027; No. of periodicals distributed, 15,079; No. of pages of tracts distributed, 329,289; Almanacs, 3,837; No. of new subscribers obtained for REVIEW, on trial, 109; REFORMER, 49; INSTRUCTOR, 34; SIGNS, 426. Rec’d for Membership, $107 00
Donations, 291 43
Sales, 41 06
New Subscribers, 77 92
Total, $517 41 The president remarked, in regard to the report, that it compares very favorably with previous reports, but the time to cease our efforts has not yet come. He spoke of the necessity of raising means to carry on the tract and missionary work, and requested that the widow and orphan fund be especially remembered, as there is nothing in the treasury at the present time. He urged that every member of the S. D. Adventist Church in the State become a member of the T. and M. Society, and hoped an effort would be made to this effect. Remarks were called for, and several responded, by giving statements of labor performed, with encouraging results. Bro. Sawyer spoke in substance as follows concerning the work at Battle Creek: “The interesting letters which are read here from week to week in the Vigilant T. and M. Society, are inspiring the workers with courage. The work has been quite successful, especially that which has resulted from correspondence with the Southern States. In Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Mississippi there has been a great interest awakened by the circulation of the SIGNS OF THE TIMES. Many inquiries have come in from these and other States, in regard to our views, and many have embraced them and are living out the truth. Respecting the work among the Swedes, to which Bro. S. has given much attention, he says: ‘The prospects are brightening in behalf of this people. Young men are engaging in the work in earnest. From three different Swedish settlements in Michigan have calls come in, saying, “Come over and help us.” There is also a call from Wisconsin, one from Dakota, where there were six counties of Scandinavians, one from Iowa, one from Illinois, and one from Kansas. The Swede who sent in the call from Dakota was a member of the State Legislature, and a Sabbath-keeper. From these different Macedonian cries among the Swedes we venture to predict advancement of the truth. Several Swedes in Maine and Michigan have lately embraced the truth from reading. From the manner in which this work is advancing, we conclude that it is of the Lord, and must go forward to complete victory, and blessed is the man who will take hold to help.’” Several reports have been received from churches and individuals taking packages of SIGNS for distribution. They show activity and courage in the missionary work, and some good results of labor. One secretary writes: “We do not feel discouraged in the least, that is, like ceasing to work. Sometimes when no cheering intelligence is received, it makes us sad; yet we feel it is good, very good, to do all we can, leaving the rest to our God. May he help us all, all who have the name, to be indeed ‘vigilant’ and prayerful.” From a private letter written us by a brother in Rome, N. Y., we take the liberty to make the following extract:— “We have an organization of fifty members who are getting along finely, walking in the commandments of the Lord. We have three prayer and social meetings, one besides on the Sabbath and sometimes on Sunday evening. I have enjoyed myself better the last ten months, than I ever did before in my life. We now know what true spiritual life means; and the Bible seems like a new book; for we think we understand it much better than before.” for Minnesota the Present Conference Year. H.

The Poorest Education That Teaches Self-Control
THE poorest education that teaches self-control is better than the best that neglects “Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.” Died, at Swan Lake, Turner Co., Dakota, June 16, 1877, of scarlet fever, Frederick Christian, eldest son of Eld. Andrew and Olena Frederickson, aged 19 years and 10 months. This was a sudden blow to his friends, as he was sick but eight days, and on the 14th, two days before his death, the delirium passed away and he was considered out of danger. He had observed the Sabbath since the fall of 1874, and was always deeply interested in religious subjects. He was teaching this summer, and hoping to attend the Battle Creek College during the fall and winter. Very many join in sorrowing with his parents, who were at the time of his death, and are still, very sick and helpless with the fever. Funeral services at some convenient future period. C. L. B. Auner. Daniel B. Grant died, of consumption, May 12, 1877, aged 28 years, 10 months, and 6 days. He was on his way to Colorado, to regain his lost vitality when death laid claim to him. He was buried in the family burying ground, near Oswego, Kan., where he had resided for over a year. Funeral services were held at Oswego, by Eld. H. C. Blanchard. J. H. Cook. Died, of consumption, May 17, 1877, Bro. Nicholas Smith, at the residence of his parents, in Clarkson, Monroe Co., New York, aged 57 years. Funeral sermon by the writer. Text, Job 14:14, 15. Chas. B. Reynolds. Fell asleep, June 16, 1877, at Hobart, Lake Co., Ind., Jesse D. Hull, in the thirty-seventh year of his age. He embraced present truth under the labors of Eld. J. H. Waggoner over eighteen years ago. In his last moments he gave the brightest evidence of his acceptance with God. He leaves a wife and three children and many friends to mourn their loss. He was one of three in all this region who kept all the commandments of God. Words of comfort by the writer from Prov. 14:32. D. D. Lightner. (SIGNS OF THE TIMES please copy.) Died, in Muir, Mich., Jan. 25, 1877, Carley C. Burden, son of W. W. and A. M. Burden, aged 5 years, 11 months, and 8 days. The circumstances of his death were very sad. He was sliding down hill with other children, and coming too near a frantic horse, received a kick which resulted in immediate death. His brother, on the sled with him, was also severely injured. Funeral services by Eld. Ransom, at the Presbyterian church. F. Howe. Died, in Leonidas, Mich., May 11, 1877, Bro. Hiram H. Crowell, a member of the Colon church, aged 41 years and 6 months. Also, Bro. L. Schellhous, aged 84 years, 1 month, and 18 days, died June 28. These, with sister Cynthia Schellhous, who died April 2, make three of our esteemed members, who have been laid away in the grave in less than three months. But they have left a good record, having all died in the faith. D. F. Quimby. War's Woes.
By Uriah Smith
A LITTLE tract, published recently by the London Peace Society, gives some startling statistics, showing the results of wars waged during the last 25 years, or from the beginning of the Crimean war in 1853, to the present year, 1877. The number of regularly trained soldiers in Europe at the present time, is about six millions; or, if we take into account those who, upon any special emergency, would be called out, the number is increased to ten millions. If only one-half of the present armies of Europe were disbanded, three millions of men, in the prime of life, would be restored to productive labor, and $500,000,000 of money saved from oppressive taxation. The number of men slain as the direct result of the wars of the past 25 years, reaches the appalling figure of 1,948,000; and the cost has been eighteen billions, five hundred and ninety-three millions, one hundred and sixty-three thousand, nine hundred and ninety-five dollars ($18,593,163,995.00). This would give, if divided among the inhabitants of the globe, over $14 to every man, woman, and child. It would build two railways around the world at the rate of $250,000 per mile, or it would provide a freehold farm of 100 acres in this country for each of the 50,000,000 adult males in Europe. Yet all this is worse than squandered in purposes of slaughter and destruction. How heart-sickening is such an exhibition of selfishness and passion on the part of those who call themselves reasonable beings. U. S. And as ye go, preach, saying, “The kingdom of Heaven is at hand.” The Seventh-day Adventists of Indiana will hold their next annual camp-meeting at Kokomo, Ind., Aug. 9-14. The Indianapolis, Peru and Chicago, Pan Handle, and Frankfort and Kokomo railroads all center in Kokomo. The depots are within a mile of the camp-ground. Teams will be at the stations to convey all who come to the ground. Application has been made for a reduction of fare on all the railroads. Due notice of reduction will be given as soon as we receive a response from the companies. We hope to see the largest turnout ever witnessed in the State. We expect to see each church in the State come with a tent, besides many family tents. Come, brethren and sisters, with your unconverted children and friends. Many in different parts of the State are favorably impressed with the truth, and could they be induced to come, would be persuaded to embrace it. Efficient speakers will be present. Ample provisions will be made for man and beast. Let those who have not tents, and the lonely and scattered ones, come bringing bedding, etc., and ample room and shelter will be provided. Come prepared to remain until the morning of the 15th. Let us pray for the blessing of the Lord to attend this meeting. S. H. Lane. Indiana State Conference.
The Indiana State Conference of S. D. Adventists will hold its fifth annual session in connection with the camp-meeting at Kokomo, Aug. 9-14, 1877. Let each church see that one or more delegates are appointed. Also let the Systematic Benevolence treasurer see that the S. B. of his church is collected and forwarded to the State treasurer, or brought to the camp-ground. Also, let each church be prepared to pledge the amount of S. B. it can pay to the State Conference the coming year. Let each delegate be furnished with credentials, church reports, and financial report. S. H. Lane, Ind.; P. Weber, Conf.; Wm. McCurdy, Com.

By Uriah Smith
In the prediction quoted by Peter from Joel on the day of Pentecost, setting forth the signs which should indicate the coming of the great and notable day of the Lord, these words are found: “And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood and fire and vapor of smoke.” Acts 2:19. Let the reader peruse the graphic account of the great auroral display of 1837, given in another column, and he will there find vividly portrayed every feature of this remarkable prediction. This is but one of many of a like nature, but this, as all the other more remarkable ones, falls within the present age, marking this as the time when nature is bearing her testimony to the truth of prophecy that earth’s last hour is at hand, and leaving men without excuse if they are not prepared for it. It is taken from a large volume of 1007 pages, entitled, “Our First Century,” a volume designed to give a brief sketch of the most remarkable events of the past hundred years. It sets this down as one among the number that is worthy to be recorded. It was from this work we gave last week the description of the wonderful Dark Day of 1780, and we have, for next week, from the same volume, testimony equally valuable respecting the great meteoric shower of 1833. This week's Commentary department brings the conclusion of Bro. Amadon's remarks on the 14th of Zechariah, a chapter which has been such a source of study and perplexity to many Bible students. We think there have been more frequent calls for an exposition of that chapter than perhaps of any other portion of Scripture. And now that the reader has what may be considered a fair and consistent application of that prophecy, he would do well to preserve the three numbers of this volume which contain it. We should have been glad to give it all in one number for more convenient preservation; but it was too lengthy for that; and we trust the reader has lost none of his interest in it by having it served up for three weeks in succession. U. S. A CORRESPONDENT writes asking this question: “Will we know each other in Heaven?” and signs his name with this remark attached: “Per order of wife.” We are a little at a loss to understand just what condition of things this indicates. If these parties want to know each other in Heaven, and both get there, we apprehend there will be no difficulty whatever. But if they do not want to know each other there, it is very clear they will never both get there, and hence there will be no danger. U. S. Wrangling or Worship? Which?
By Uriah Smith
A MAN (we suppose from the reading it is a man) who signs himself, “Inquirer,” proposes the following question: “A man and wife keep the Sabbath, but live miles from any other Sabbath-keepers. They do not belong to any church, but the wife would like to join the Adventists, the man being opposed. Is it her duty to desert a family of little ones who need her care to go and join the church?” To all of which we answer that it would be better to forego church privileges entirely than to have a family quarrel. U. S. The editor of the Christian Intelligencer publishes an extract from a letter written to him by a missionary who has been forty years in the Levant, in which this passage occurs: “In regard to the imprecatory psalms I have not the slightest difficulty—never had since I came to the East. Any one who has, would be cured by a six weeks’ residence in Hasbeijah or Mey Ayun, or any other interior part of the country to-day. Here on the coast where things are a little better, we exclaim, O Lord, how long shall the wicked triumph? But let any man who objects to the imprecatory psalms be made to live here without protection from his own government for six weeks, and he will find the language of the most violent psalm quite too weak for him. He will want to put in a double portion of fire and brimstone, and conclude if there is not a hell there ought to be one, and a deep one too. On this point we are in danger of quarrelling with the providence of God, which permits such things. . . . Political matters here are very dark. We hope the Mohammedan power may get a pull-down in the present war, and we daily pray, Destroy thou them that destroy the earth. If that is wicked, we are doing wickedly, and we shall continue to do so until the Turk is blotted out, and Mohammedanism and the Papacy have no more power.” Illinois, Notice!

OWING to the unusual drain upon our finances the present season, it is absolutely necessary that our S. B. and the one-third be promptly paid, in order that we may liquidate all claims against the Conference. In addition to our efforts in the T. and M. work, and the purchasing of the new pavilion, 80x125, we are at the expense of running two lecturing tents, one by Eld. D. M. Canright, in Massachusetts, and one by Eld. D. A. Robinson, in New Hampshire, necessarily making a heavy drain upon our treasury. Therefore, I do most earnestly recommend, if any brother or sister in the Conference has not already paid up the S. B. and the one-third for the support of the T. and M. work, that it be done at once; and that every church clerk or treasurer act with promptness in collecting these pledges, that the work of the Lord may not languish for the want of means to carry it forward. Please read Testimony No. 21, page 111. M. Wood. H. A. ST. JOHN
