Federation Considered Next Week.
By Editor
THOSE following the Outlook Department of this paper for the last several weeks have observed that "federation" is one of the prevailing sentiments of the time. The Hague Congress, as reported by M. E. Olsen, is desirous of federating the political world; the Christian Endeavor Convention, as reported by J. S. Wightman, is desirous of federating the Protestant world; the Catholic Federation Convention, as reported by C. M. Snow, is working to federate the Catholic world. What do these powerful movements mean? What will be the outcome? Will they succeed? The next issue of the SIGNS will be the first of two numbers that will be devoted to this subject. No more important issues of our paper have been published. We bespeak an especially wide circulation for them.
