The Editor of the Signs started for the East July 29th, where he expects to remain until after the Eastern Camp Meetings. The paper, therefore, goes to press without his supervision. We hope that any inadvertancies that may occur in consequence will be kindly overlooked.
This week's paper is full of matter of lively interest to all. To the friends throughout the whole field "Examination of Seven Reasons for Sunday keeping," by Eld. J. N. Andrews; "Ministration of Angels," and "Hear Ye Him," by Eld. D. M. Canright; "A Dish of Fables," by Eld. M. E. Cornell; "The Saints' Inheritance," by Eld. J. N. Loughborough; "The Present Truth," and "The End," by the Editor; and "The Temptation of Christ," by Mrs. E. G. White, are of the greatest importance and interest.
Many of the fundamental principles held by Seventh-day Adventists are now being discussed in the SIGNS, and each article is as good as a sermon.
To the friends on the Pacific coast we would especially call attention to "Appeal to the California Brethren," and the articles on Camp Meeting, the Appointments, &c.
The reports from Vallejo, San Jose, and Santa Clara, will be cheering to all who have an interest in the spread of Present Truth. Still later from Vallejo, Eld. Loughborough reports ten Sabbath keepers, and more coming in. We have received no definite report from the North Pacific Mission, but the lists of names for the SIGNS received since last issue shows that Eld. Van Horn is still at work.
The list of $100 men is swelling with each number. We expect large reinforcements before next issue.
