.lGH7S OF HOMES1,EDERS.

B1GELow, Jan. 6, 1880.
EDITOR ADVANCES: Will yon please
inform me whether there is any act
passed to compel single man to 60
forthwith and live on his homestead:
Ian he he away six months provldei he
makes his improvements? Can he go
away for the winter and return to do
Ills Springs work? Can his claim he
iumped if lie is away as above!
J.K.
We understand the general Land Of
flee is much more strict than formerly
In enforcing the laws relating to home
steaders. They are allowed six months
after filing to get on the land, bat af-
ter that continuous residence IS re-
auired. No distinction is made be-
tween married and single men. II an
unmarried man should leave his claim
for a month or two during the winter
to work elsewhere, this would not he
considered an abandonment nor vio-
lation of the spirit Of the law. Con-
test could be ordered, but if the claim
ant could prove that his absence was
only temporary, and that his improve
ments were going ON in good faith, he
could not be ousted.
THE METHODIST CHURCH ROW IN
MANkA7'O.
From the Mankato Review.
We think by this time the true
friends of the church will conclude
with us that the difficulty is a most un-
fortunate one, not only for the Nj. E.
church, but for the cause of Christiani-
ty in this city. 1t shows 4 narrowness,
Oigotry and inclination to persecution
that ought not to he found among
those who claim to he followers of
Christ, and assume to exemplity Ills
teachings in their daily walk. 1t is a
bad example for those the religious
world style "thc ungodly," and men
outside the church who sincerely love
right and justice for principles sake
who delight to live on terms Of peace
and good will with their fellow-men-
will find in the acts Of persecution and
wrong characterizing the records Of
this trial, and in the liberal indulgence
of personal hatred and vitupcration in
the accompanying criticism, by profess
ing and recognized Christians, no in
ducement to connect themselves with
such Il religious society; but. on the
other hand, very substantial reasons
for not doing so.
The men outside the church who
"sincerely love right and justice for
principles saien don't need the church
and are not likely to join it. This Man.
kato case like the Austin and Worth
ington cases and ten thousand others
which might be cited, are proof strong
er than Holy Writ that fairness, JUS
ticr, and honor are not to he found in
the average church. Considering the
rottenness and the spiritual deafness
Of the churches, it IS no wonder that
the best brains, the best characters
and the best llumanitarians stand
aloof from those societies called
''churches'' who steal the livery of
Heaven to serve Satan in.

Brother Miller of tue Worthington
ADVANCE lEss had some experience
that corresponds to our own here in
Austin. IL Worthington they have 4
corrupt political ring part of which
belongs to the church, and that ring
has fought Brother Miller because Of
his independence and defense Of the
people. Telling how they have opposed
him, he says:
"The Worthingtcn Ring, and those.
whom they could influence, have fmtqht
to kill. Not only have they withheld
other means, political, religious for,
rather irrelig ious, personal, social and
what not, to kill the ADVANCE. They
followed us into every public meeting,
into tn Sabbath School, into the
Church, and pulled every string posi-
bic. They packed a churcl, meeting
with their fiji lends. and by pulling the
financial string o. the mercenary pas
tor of the church, and the higotry
string on the bigots and hypocrits,
got him and them to engineer their
business through, and sawed our Con-
grrCatonal leg off.
Brother Miller HIS our sympathy.
He is brave and deserves the success he
has won. The saving his leg off is not
the worst indgnity he could have been
subjected to. The graces OF the heart
and loyalty to God and man may he
maintained Notwithstanding. Keep
on fighting the good fight, my brother.
Austin Republican.
And now Miller, of the Rock county
Herald, has one of the clergy after him.
He dared to express himself on the
liquor license question and Rev. J. W.
Pease, of the NJ. E. church, attacked
him from the pulpit and spoke of the
''slum' in the Herald. Huntington of
