Some, among | the ultra conservative delegations of th2 East, made an attempt to have the co vention transferred to an Eastern cf urging the great distance and the time r quired to attend, but the almost unani- | mous voice of the church demanded that ! for once the convention should be held in | the far West in order that ocular evidencs | | of the growth and condition of the v\hl-\ ern_dioceses should be had. While the dioceses of Sacramento nni‘ Los Angeles are to co-operate with San Francisco in making provisions for re-| celving the great gathering of the whole | church, the burden necessarily falls upon | the parent dlocese and largely upen the | see city of the diocese. For the past two | weeks Bishop +Nichols, ~assisted the standing committee of the diocesé, ha been engaged in selecting the several committees which will have entire chargs | of arrangefhents for the convention.
