lowing was unanimously and heartily

lowing was unanimously and heartily
adopted:
In view OF the fact that the ap-
preaching session of the Upper Iowa
annual conference to be held at Water
loo, Iowa, will call together the quad
rennial lay electoral conference which
will elect delegates to the general con-
ference to be held in Chicago in May,
1900; and further in view of the fact
that certain candidates are pressing
their claims for election; therefore,
We, the members of the quarterly
conference Of the Toledo charge. call
attention to the name and the claims
of Hon. w. F. Johnston as one pre-
eminently fitted for this honor at your
hands. We suggest for your consider
alton the following facts that. in our
Judgment, recommend him for this POI
sition:
Il. He has for over forty years been
one of the most prominent laymen in
central Iowa. His loyalty to the church,
his generous support of all the benev-
olences of the church, his liberal contri-
buttons in behalf of the educational in
situations Of the church, ana his wise
counsel for years as president of the
board of trustees of Cornell College, and
his activity in the work of the local
church, have endeared him to all who
know him.
80. He is one of the most generally
known of our laymen among the church
at large. He has been in close touch
during all these years with the bishops
and correctional officials Of the church.
No man better knows the wants and
spirit of our church at large than he. He
is built on the broad guage plan and
thus fitted for judgment on all the great
questions of the church.
g. He is experienced in legislative
work and methods. He has been
member of the general assembly of
Iowa and is peculiarly fitted for efficient
service in the general conference.
"A. Brother Johnston is man of pc
culiar modesty and would never press
his own claims for this position Hence
this circular is sent out to you, but with
the assurance that he will accept this
honor and reflect great credit to the
laity of this conference and all Iowa II
he is elected by you.
'.Trusting that Brother Johnston will
find favor in your judgment for this
position. and thanking you in advance
for the honor you will thus confer upon
our local church and section of the con-
ference, we remain most sincerely
yours.
THE CONFERENCE BOARD.

and heartily endorse this nomination.
