THE ADVENTIST BRETHREN MMM 541

Their World’s Conference Still in Good MMM 541.2

Working Order. MMM 541.3

(From Yesterday’s Later Editions.) MMM 541.4

There was no regular meeting of the Adventist conference today, but the time was taken by the educational and publishing societies. These various societies, to which all the large business interests of the sect are intrusted, are peculiar institutions. They were originally formed because it was not possible [to] incorporate a conference. Formally they are entirely independent of the conference but really they are an integral part of it. This afternoon Dr. J. H. Kellogg, physician in chief of the sanitarium at Battle Creek lectures to women. Tonight E. W. Farnsworth, secretary of the Home Mission, will address the members of the conference. MMM 541.5

It has not been decided when the conference will close its labors, but everyone expects to be home before election day, Nov. 6. The Adventists have an issue this year and want to be home in time to cast their ballot against the National Reform party. MMM 541.6
