they said it was wrong for man to
have more than seven wives unless
he could support them decently.
But the climax came on Sunday,
April 9Th; the Rev. 6. came to tell
us that Sunday was the Bible Sab
bath, and the Rev. e., a Seventh Day
Adventist, came to tell us that Sat-
urday was the Bible Sabbath. We
have not space or disposition to re-
peat any of the discussion; suffice it
to say, the only thing chat was pro-
ven was, that there is q brotherly
love existing between christians
which people of the world do not
possess; although their words and
actions bespoke anger, yet there was
not blow struck. Now when these
learned men, called BY the Almighty
to teach us, differ SO widely, are we
not surely in the dark? We would
like now, a holy Catholic Priest to
come and tell US 71e truth, the
whole truth, and nothing but the
truth. 1t would not BE well for me
to undertake to show forth these
different doctrines, as it would take
a great deal of space and accomplish
no good. Yours Truly,
BIlLEr BUMPUs.

The republican state convention
has been called to meet in St. Paul,
June 81, to nominate candidates for
state offices. Gov. Hubbard ought to
be renominated; he has made a good
executive, having attended faithfully
to his duties and efficiently performed
them, and he deserves the compliment
of q second term. We hope to sec
Gen. Baker renominated for the Office
OF railroad commissioner, he has
labored hard in the interests of the
people, and can do better service in
that office than any new man without
experience, and Baker is just crotch
ETY. enough to be independent and to
perform the duties of that office with
out fear or favor. Lieut.. Gov. Gill
man has the habit of getting what he
wants, and we presume will be re-
nominated for Lieut.. Governor. unless
some stronger man than any that has
as yet been mentioned, should enter the
arena. Examiner Knox ought to be
as he is a faithful and
most efficient officer, and we believe,
by all odds the best man in the State
for the place.

| To the Editor of the Northern Pacific Farmer.
There seems to be throughout the
christian world, sympathy for the
poor heather of China, Hindostan.
and other benighted l.Inds, which we
presume. is as it should be. Next
to those poor creatures, we, the in
habitants of England Prairie, are in
my opinion, most deserving of SYM
pathy. We we're comparatively in
the daak since there are only a few
Bibles in each house, and the men,
bers Of each family have only the
usual amount of human brain. and
only ordinarily we'll balanced heads.
Rev. X. Congregational Minister,
and Rev. H. of the United Brethren,
seeing our condition from afar, kind
ly came and volunteered to expound
the scriptures for us. They told us
that the prophets and apostles did
not mean what they. had recorded,
but meant thus and SO; they being.
learned men, and agreeing so nearly,
we thought their instructions cor
rect, and were just feeling satisfied,
when along comes another, Rev. c.,
a learned man and an Advent. who
tells us those other men were blind
leaders of the blind; he has sought
and found the true. religion, and
proved it by two witnesses; the good
old Daniel, and John the revalator;
and he challenges the others Tin their
absence) to show any part or portion
of the Bible which could sustain
their doctrine. Now we were get.
ting little muddled in our minds
when the good old father G., a Free
Methodist, seeing our dilemma came
and washed all the starch out of the
Rev. C's. teachings, and babe US fol-
low him and be happy here and here
after; but we were not allowed to
rest; the Rev. j., an. Episcopalian.

AS will be seen in another place, a

AS will be seen in another place, a
railroad is to be built from Little
Falls to Wadena. This statement
was confirmed by Mr.. Willard himself
in an interview published in the
Minneapolis Journal, and it is alto
gether probable that the Manitoba
will come in here also, over the track
of the Sank Centre Northern which
has recently passed into the hands of
that road; therefore it would seem
that Wadena with all of it's natural
advantages of location is likely to
be a railroad centre, and will be the
largest town and business centre on
the main line Of Che n. P. between
Duluth and Fargo, not excepting
Brainerd, which depends upon the R.
r. shops located there for its bust
ness, having no country surrounding
it of value for farming purposes. 1t
would seem we'll to us for our bust
ness men to take hold of the opportun.
tiles thus to be opened up to them,
and to prepare for the brilliant future
that surely lies before us.
