EDITORIAL NOTES
Our new house of worship in
Seattle will soon be near enough
completed for the brethren to occu
py with their meetings.
Read Bro. McKinney’s article
this week on prayer meetings. He
makes some splendid points which
should be heeded by many churches.
It appears from the reports of
the annual anti cooperative meet
ings we have so far printed, that
the brethren *in Washington Terri
tory are fully alive to the interest
of the cause in that field. We
have a noble band of brethren in
the Territory, and we are glad to
know they are pushing forward
tthe work. -----
We ask attention to the official
statement of the Executive Com
mittee in reference to tf»e case of
Bro. Norton. We are sorry that
any trouble among our mission
aries to Jjadia should have ever
arisen, or that, it was necessary to
make it public; but as Bro. Norton
has now been released from all
obligation to the brethren, it is to
be hoped that all things are work
■ng together for good to those who
love God and the cause of missions.
