PROSECUTING, for there are all over
the country. thousands on thousands
of people who have no church con-
nection, people who have little or no
relation to organized Christianity in
any form. 1t is to- these that the
missionaries of all churches are now
chiefly addressing themselves. Even
in Indianapolis with its many
churches, there are vast numbers OF
people who are merely nominal
Christians. Their church connection
is Of the slightest--is hardly recog-
nized or admitted even by them
selves. So the work of church extern
sion (which is to be considered by
the conference now meeting in Indi-
anapolis) is one of Importance.
AS far as the Episcopal church Is
concerned, it has long felt the need
for greater unity of action in its
own organization. So, many Of its
leading men are beginning to feel the
need for an executive head. The
church has supreme legislative
body, the General Convention; but
this meets but once in three years.
There is, to be sure, presiding
bishop, but he is not presiding
bishop of the church, but only of the
General Convention, and he has
small power, and no control of any
sort. Each bishop is Independent in
his diocese, and there has been little
cooperation among the dioceses.
Feeling the need for closer organiza-
ton, the General Convention, which
met IN Boston more than a year ago,
divided the country into missionary
districts, and provided for confer
ences to be held in those districts.
The present conference is Of the
Fifth district, including the State
of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Illinois
and Wisconsin. 1t may be that out
of this creation of missionary dis
tricts will in time grow a provincial
system in which the diocese will be
grouped together, with an archbishop
or presiding bishop at the head of
each group.
But we now content ourselves with
welcoming to Indianapolis the dis
tinguished leaders of the Episcopal
church. The church which they rep
resent is not strong in indianapolis
or Indiana, but, nevertheless, it ex-
erts an influence on the religious life
and thought of our people which is
felt by many who belong to other
eommunions. And, as we have said,
there is large opportunity for
growth without in any way weaken
ing other churches. All Christians
will, we feel sure, rejoice at the
many signs of an awakened zeal and
a greater missionary activity on the
part Of a church which has done so
much for this country Of ours, and
which stands so steadfastly for the
great American doctrine of a free
church in free state.

THE EPISCOPAL CONFERENCE.

The meeting in Indianapolis of
practically all the Episcopal bishops
of that great section Of the country
known as the middle West is an
event of more than ordinary import
ance. The following bishops are ex-
pected to attend the conference !:
Vincent, of southern Ohio; Leonard,
of Michigan City; Williams, of Mar
quette; Seymour and Osborne, of
Springfield; Fawcett, of Quincy; An
derson, of Chicago, and Grafton and
Weller, of Fond du Lac. DR.. McCor-
mick, who has just been elected
Undergraduates of western Mich
gan, will also be here. While it is
true that the subjects discussed will
be of more interest to Episcopalians
than to any other people, they never
theless bear directly onthe important
problem of bringing Christianity In
to more vital contact with the life
of our time. Church extension is the
principal theme for consideration
and the extension of the power anG
influence of any church that stand:
for the old faith is a matter il
which all should be interested.
For we are coming to see thai
there is great work in this country
for all churches to do, work il
which each church can have its par
without interfering with the work o
the others. It is not a question o.
