Under the above cuption there appears

for the article would be AN Insignificant
Minority Requeets an Overwhelming

that address represent only about one
eighth of the Evangellcals of Welssport.
This plea for Unity is request TO the
ma jority to submit Internationally to the
minority, by acknowledging the Indiana,
plolis Conference as legal, and every ac-
tlon of that Conference as binding. The
ground upon which this plea is made, is
that the Circuit Court in Cleveland, Ohio,
decided in favor of the indianapolis Con-
ference. They seem.to forget or at least
they utterly ignore the fact that notice of
an appeal has been given in the case, and
that the Supreme Court of Ohio will be
called upon to decide the question.
They have apparently, also, forgotten
that Judge Shaw, In what is by all odds
the most exhaustive and elaborate deci-
cion yet rendered on the question al ISSUE
decided that Bishops Esher and Bowman
were legally suspended, and that the Phil

Many who went in search of it no OF
