Reply from the Central Committee of Anti-Revolutionary Electoral Associations (see 1878.02) to an invitation from the Federation of Young Men’s Associations on Reformed Principles to attend the federation’s upcoming annual meeting. Writing on behalf of the committee, Kuyper informs the federation that it only takes part in activities related to elections. He concludes by expressing his appreciation for the zeal with which the federation is working on behalf of the principles of Calvinism: “A cause is not lost which finds such faithful and zealous advocates among our energetic youth.”
