Union is Strength.

By James White

In a recent number of the REVIEW, we gave a statement relative to the amount of publishing, of books, pamphlets, and tracts, that should be done at this Office within the next six months. We stated:—

“We need five thousand dollars to be invested in stock, before the first of January, 1871; and then we shall need five thousand dollars more, within six months of that time, to pay for printing and binding.”

We also stated:—

“We have put one hundred dollars into the book fund, and with pleasure will be one of a hundred to raise ten thousand dollars.” We now inquire:—

“1. Who will be one of one hundred to raise this sum, and each give $100? “2. Who will be one of two hundred, and each give $50? “3. Who will be one of four hundred, and each give $25? “4. Who will be one of one thousand, and each give $10? “And, lastly, who will be one of two thousand, to each give $5?”

We give the following responses, and shall give others when received.

ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS EACH.

Dan R. Palmer, Ira Abbey, H. W. Kellogg, James White.

FIFTY DOLLARS EACH.

N. Orcutt, Jacob Shively.

TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS EACH.

John Olive, A. W. Maynard, Eugene P. Kellogg.

This is an excellent beginning, and we wish the enterprise a successful and happy termination. To this end, let the friends of the cause remember that “union is strength.” JAMES WHITE.
