Presidential Candidates and the Nation’s Crisis

By Editor

At least five candidates will be placed before the voters of the United States for election to the high office of President during the next few weeks. The Republican and Democratic conventions have already made their nominations. The former nominated Pres. William H. Taft for reelection. The Democratic convention placed in nomination Gov. Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey, for President. It is very probable that the bolters from the Republican convention will definitely organize soon, taking the name National Progressive Party, and placing in nomination former president Theodore Roosevelt. Doubtless the Prohibition and Socialist Parties will place representatives of their respective causes before the people for their votes. Important issues to-day confront the state as well as the church. In the crisis that is now approaching in the affairs of men, in the turmoil and unrest that exists everywhere, we need to keep our minds sane and sober, and our hearts in the peace of God.
