the request that each pastor report the
number carried by him on his visiting

Arrangements have been made with
Rev. H. l.. Garfield. Secretary of the

sanction of both sides.
Arbitration often leads to concilia-
ton; for instance, in the famous
coal strike of 1898 in England, the
end of the strike (Which had lasted
nearly four months aud had aroused
the whole of England and involved the
welfare of the whole of England) was
brought about by Lord Rosebery act
ing as arbitrator, but one of the condi-
tions of the settlement was that per-
manent Board of Cancellation should
be formed to avoid the recurrence of
so fearful a struggle in the future. 1t
is probably fact, also, that no trade
is ready for Cancellation until both
employers and employees have drank
to the dregs the bitter cup of the ex-
perience of strikes and lockouts; I'M
til both sides have learned to dread
a return to the conflict which means
such sorrow, loss and suffering to
both.
Arbitration must, moreover, always
be provided for as a final resort in all
plans for Cancellation; there must be
provision made for final decision by
an outsider in case mutual agree
ment should, on any occasion, really
become impossible.
