The October Watchman

By Editor

Of particular interest in the October Watchman, in the insight it affords of the aims of Catholicism, is a report from F. D. Wagner on the “Catholic Federation Meeting at Pittsburg, Pa.” “The Abuse of Power,” by the editor, illustrates how the great churches are turning from their God-given power, the Holy Spirit, and in its place, reaching after the power of the state, which union is bound to work ruin for both church and state. “The Coming Reign and Kingdom of Christ,” by R. A. Underwood, is the beginning of a series of articles on this great Bible subject. C. P. Bollman gives an excellent article on “Evolution Versus Redemption,” and P. T. Magan writes of “A Sick Man, a Very Sick Man;” namely, the enfeebled and tottering Ottoman empire. We urge our readers to give this number of the Watchman the wide circulation among their friends and neighbors which its excellent merit and importance demand.

It will be observed that following our World-Wide Field department and closely related to it in subject-matter is a new department this week, “The Harvest Ingathering Campaign for Missions.” The name indicates its general character. To this department we refer our readers for much of interest pertaining to the Ingathering campaign, beginning November 1.
