Election Campaign — The Temporal and Permanent.
By Editor
The whole country nearly is in the agony of an election campaign. Millions are in doubt. The Success magazine, with its editorial board of 25,000 life subscribers, predicts a Congress nearly equally divided between the Republican and Democratic parties. But many of these Republicans are Insurgents who will have been placed there by Democratic votes. Many progressive Democrats will doubtless be elected by Insurgent Republican votes. And there are other possible combinations. No one can tell of a certainty what will be the result. Old party ties have been shattered as never before. When this reaches our readers, the contests will be over, and many will be disappointed, and none will be wholly satisfied save for a time. There is a government, a country, a commonwealth, in which we all may be citizens, which is sure to triumph whatever the opposition, and whose triumph every loyal subject shall share. Says the apostle Paul: "For our citizenship is in heaven; whence also we wait for a Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: who shall fashion anew the body of our humiliation, that it may be conformed to the body of His glory, according to the working whereby He is able even to subject all things unto Himself." Phil. 3:20, 21. Surely, it is a proud thing to be the follower of such a leader, the holder of such a citizenship. The lists are still open, and the invitation is to all.
