What They Say of "Liberty"

By A. J. S. Bourdeau

The World-Wide Symposium number of Liberty, just out, is meeting with a most hearty reception, as will appear from the following extracts from letters received last week:—
ARIZONA, H. G. Thurston, President: “The late numbers of Liberty contain the gospel. The times demand a gigantic circulation of the July-September number.”
NEW JERSEY, B. F. Kneeland, President: “I consider the current number of Liberty the best, in some respects, that I have seen. The comprehensive view of the conditions prevailing in the various nations is valuable.”
EAST MICHIGAN, E. K. Slade, President: “Each number of this splendid magazine seems to be better than the preceding one. This one is filled with important articles that should arouse and inspire our own people, and that should be passed on for warning and enlightenment to our neighbors and friends.”
OKLAHOMA, David Voth, President: “This is certainly one of the best numbers, if not the best, that I have ever seen. It seems to me any person ought to be able to sell this instructive and interesting magazine without any trouble. Our tract society has just sent in over 100 names of State officers, judges, etc., to whom we wish this magazine sent for one year.”
EAST KANSAS, L. W. Terry, President: “I consider the last number of Liberty the best that has been placed in the hands of the people, and trust that it will receive a wide circulation, for it deserves it.”
WESTERN NEW YORK, H. W. Carr, President: “Have given this number quite a careful reading. I wish that it might be read by every American citizen. I can not see how such matter will fail to appeal to the minds of the thoughtful. We shall do all we can to put it into the hands of those who will read and appreciate it.”
IOWA, A. R. Smouse, Missionary Secretary: “There is a very prominent attorney here whose attitude has been entirely changed as the result of sending him Liberty. Before he read it, he was very much in favor of Sunday laws; but a few weeks ago, when the passage of the Johnston Sunday bill was imminent, he sent a telegram to Senator —, who is a personal friend of his, asking him to use his vote and influence against it, as he believed the subject was not one for legislation.”
SOUTH DAKOTA, Nellie B. Underwood, Missionary Secretary: “This number impresses me as being one of the best ever put out. I feel that we ought to give it a wide circulation. I will do what I can.”
MONTANA, A. E. Everett, Secretary and Treasurer: “I believe this number is the most important of any yet issued. It should be a mighty factor in educating our public men. We shall continue to work for Liberty here in Montana.”
EAST MICHIGAN, H. A. Weaver, Religious Liberty Secretary: “In three hours’ time I absorbed the entire contents. It is the best yet. My appreciation for the matter contained in Liberty can not be expressed on paper or with words.”
NORTHERN UNION, T. D. Gibson, Secretary and Treasurer: “Have just made an examination of the current number of Liberty, and am much pleased with what it presents. This number will enlighten every one who reads it, and enable him clearly to understand the signs of the times.”
WEST PENNSYLVANIA, G. Medairy, Missionary Secretary: “This issue should have a wide circulation.”
NORTH MICHIGAN, Jno. H. Niehaus, Missionary Secretary: “My eyes, mind, and heart have truly feasted upon the contents of the last number of Liberty, which reached me while waiting several hours at a railroad station, giving me ample time for a thorough examination.”
INDIANA, A. L. Miller, Religious Liberty Secretary: “The third quarter’s issue of Liberty is an excellent number,—one that should receive a wide circulation.”
TENNESSEE, Mrs. M. Crothers, Missionary Secretary, Southern Union Conference: “The warning of our message is being definitely given through Liberty, in a way calculated to interest public men, because it links the truth to public and national affairs. The latest number is certainly good because of the variety of its contents.”
ONTARIO, Sadie Baker, Missionary Secretary: “I like this number very much, as it sets forth the principles of religious liberty very plainly and definitely.”
MISSOURI, Mary E. Hartwell, Secretary of St. Louis Tract Society: “This number brings us into close touch with our brethren over the sea, telling us of the struggles they are having. Would like to see it in the hands of every thinking man and woman in our country.”
Let us all unite in giving this excellent number a very wide circulation. If you have not seen a copy, send ten cents for the same to your conference tract society to-day; or, send $1.50 to pay for sending Liberty one year to ten leading men of your State, school-teachers, attorneys, physicians, clergymen, etc.
Send for special instruction leaflet for agents, giving five canvasses, hints, and other helps.
Prices in quantities are as follows: 5 to 40 copies, 5 cents a copy; 50 or more, 4 cents a copy. Send $1 for 20 copies or $2 for 50 copies. Do so as soon as you read this, and thereby help to win the great battle of religious freedom in America.
