Note. The church at Roosevelt are making ample arrangements for the State Conference so that all may come. They are adding sixteen feet to the length of their meeting-house. Have arranged to have six or eight teams, and more if called for, to carry Brn. from and to the cars, with an abundance of hygienic food, yet I would recommend that Sabbath be a day of fasting and fervent prayer to God for his blessing on our yearly gathering, and that he may go forth to battle with us, and that during the coming Conference year, the cause of truth may move forward in this State.
