“Watchman” War Issue

By Editor

THERE has never been a more opportune time to present the third angel’s message or to show the world our position as a denomination on the Eastern Question than is now presented.
We could not let this sudden and awful development among the nations pass unnoticed until another issue of the Watchman should be ready; hence we have delayed our September number a day or two in order that it may include some very valuable matter on this situation while the world is so intensely interested in the present developments.
Professor Magan, who is well known to the readers of the REVIEW as a writer on the Eastern Question, and who has given long and earnest study to this great subject, will have a most interesting and instructive article in the September Watchman, on the recent developments in Europe. “Europe at the Rubicon” is the title of one of the best articles he has ever written on this subject. We appreciate the fact that this is saying a great deal; and yet after reading this excellent article we feel justified in making this statement and calling your attention to the article. It contains much valuable data recently secured from European sources, which will be greatly prized by all interested in this great conflict.
“Europe’s Conflagration” is the title of an article by our editor, calling attention to the nature and meaning of such a war as this, contrasting it with the peace talk of which so much has been said of late in this and other countries. The September Watchman will also have a striking cover design showing a relief map of Europe, including The Hague and the different European capitals, above which is the hovering war cloud of death.
Already inquiries are coming in for something on the Eastern Question; and realizing what a splendid opportunity this offers us as a people to present to the world something special on the present situation, we have endeavored to furnish the latest and best material for the September Watchman that can be obtained. Order at once from your tract society.
