CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE.
The following is the full text of the
resolution adopted by the conference
with reference to the paper question:
I'VE recommend the continuance and
support of the North Carolina Adyo-
cate as the organ of the Western North
Carolina Conference, and recommend the
appointment of Rev. l.. w. Crawford
to the editorship of the same
Resolved =. That we recommend the
election, by ballot, of commission of
two ministers and two laymen to meet
a like commission which we request the
North Carolina Conference to appoint
to confer with DIR. l.. w. Crawford.
and other stockholders, and to have, if
possible, the ownership of the North
Carolina Advocate transferred to the
two North Carolina conferences and if
this arrangement can be effected that
this joint commission be authorized to
elect an editor for the present confer
ence year, and to provide for the business
of the Advocate for the en-
suing conference year
This passed unanimously after some
debate. DIR. Crawford never stood so
high in the love and confidence of his
brethren. His unselfish spirit with ref
erence to the Advocate all along has won
the respect of those who opposed his
policy most earnestly. He has always
stood ready as a loyal preacher, to do
the bidding of the Conference. The at
tempt on the part of a few members
to repudiate his policy was ill-advised
and the Conference sustained him most
