mETHODISM AND AMUsEMENTS.
Extremes of Sentiment Voiced i'm the
social Union n esterday.

Parlor of the Merchants hotel and
the ladies ordinary. We're crowded and en-
Hvened yesterday afternoon by the presence
OF over one hundred members of the Metho-
dist Social union of ST. Paul and Mime
apols. The time from to $50 p. IN. was
filed with the reading of two pa
perS, discussion, a banquet
and season of social intercourse.
The papers and discussion were on the
question, What relation should the Meth
odist church sustain toward the popular
amusements of the day?"
The first paper was by Rev. John Stat
ford Of the first NJ. Z. church of Minneap-
Oils. 1t was conservative in tone and
hardly as liberal as the general sentiment
of the church. Among his points were the
following:
Popular amusements should be judged
by what they are, and not by what they
have been, may be or ought to be. Be-
cause they are what they are, the church
should sustain the same relation it always
has suStained-speaking out kindly
but boldly against them, showing
their perniciOus influences. 1t should SuS-
tain this position because they are destruct-
i've of spiritual life and Christian character.
They keep people out of the church and are
worldly in their aims and tendencies.
E. The same topic was treated sby DR.. Dun
woOdie of st. Paul, who took a more liberal
view of the question. He said there was
nothing intrinsically wrong in card-playing,
dancing and theater-going, and reviewed
some Of the objections to them. Church
members objected to them largely because
their fathers did, and because they were in
conflict with the traditions of the church.
Ii was said that the associations were bad
but the associations were what people made
them. The associations OF dancing were
impure to impure minds, and such would
be impure under any circumstances-in the
prayer meeting as well as the ballroom
One objection to card playing was that it
was game of chance, but in reality it was
mainly game of skill. as illustrated in a
game between a professional and a novice
The church held that it was intrinsically
bad, but it was really no worse than the
game of authors, which the church
cOuntenanced. The church could elevate
the theater to higher and proper
standard by cOuntenancing only the pure.
Managers would give the public what they
wanted. There were men in the church
that were dishonest, impure and who broke
nearly every commandment i'll the deca-
logue and little notice was taken of it, yet
if one indulged in these popular amuse-
mentS great hue and cry was raised.
The paper was brilliant one, full of wit
and interesting points, and Immediately
aroused a vigorous discussion. The dis
cussion was largely carried on by laymen
who were as vigorous in their opposition to
the sentiments expressed as any OF the
ministry. The discussion will be continued
at the next meeting in MINNEAPOLIS.

THEY COME AND GO.
stopping for Bits of Gossip as They
Chew Their TOOthpicks.


j. Bookwalter, Vernon, ex-collector of Gus
toms at St Vincent, was an arrival yester-
day. Since his retirement from Office last
fall, when Dr. Girdon was appointed as his
successor, he has devoted himself to farm
ing, and has become representative for
the state in the National Farmers assOcia-
ton. He saw that he had been too busy
to hear of political affairs, but it was gen
orally understood in that congressional dis
trict that Wakefield would not seek a re-
nomination, and that Turrell of Redwood
Falls, Freeman, Schistler and Callister of
MankatO were all in the race. Gen. Baker
of Blue Earth county was in no sense a
candidate for the place.
~
A. T. FinScth, Kenyon, said that the
talk in his congressional district was 10 the
effect that Strait, the present congressman,
was DESTROYS of denomination, and Martin
,. Chandler of Red Wing was also i'm the
race. Mr.. Finseth thought it was quite
early in The contest TO tell anything
about it.
Col. Graves, Duluth, announced that it
was too early in the season TO predict any
thing about Knute Nelson's successor in
congress. He said that no one had author
lty TO use his name in connection with the
place, as he was not aware that he was in
the race. His denial was of character
that leads to the conclusion that under GER
tain conditions he might enter the race.
The opening of lake navigation at Duluth,
he said, was expected by the first of next
month.
~
l.. J.. Aune, Fergus Falls. was an arrival.
He is the register of the land Office at that
point, having been appointed to the place
by President Cleveland last fall. Previous
to assuming charge Of the Office he was en-
gagged In business in that locality and is well
and favorably known to the people who have
occasion to visit the land office. His STAY in
st. Paul was of brief character.
~
Jackson MeAbee, Dakota. is an arrival
at the Ryan: He is the owner of dn ex-
tenSive ranch in Stutsman county. Dakota.
known as the Gettys sbury stock ranch. He
is former resident of PHILADELPHIA. and
came out West but few years ago. He
bought extensively of land and stock. and
now has one of the most complete ranches
in the territory.
*x*
81 4. Sargent, Chicago, registered at the
Ryan. lie was the former general mana
ger of the Northern Pacific railroad before
the Willard interests obtained control. On
the happening of the latter event he with
drew. He owns large area of property in
the vicinity of New Buffalo, on the North
ern Pacific road, and his present visit is to
look after his real estate.
Morris E. Ward, Chicago. came up to see
if st. Paul wanted any of the Allan paper
ear wheels. He is very enthusiastic over
the merits of this particular kind of wheels
ana VIII not admit that other wheels are fit
10 use. Ii Is unnecessary TO say that he is
agent 1or the paper wheels. His visit to st.
Paul is in the interest of that invention.

The board of directors of the Minnesota
State Agricultural association met yester-
day afternoon and evening at the Mer-
chants. The time was spent revising the
premium list which was largely
increased. The premiums for agricultural
and dairy exhibits were increased in num-
Der and value and the association will offer
this year larger premiums than any other
state agricultural society in the United
States 1t was decided to complete
the art gallery, the foundation of
which is already furnished. Other
buildings to be put up are horticultural
hall, dining-hall and two new horse and
two cattle stables. The capacity of the horse
stables will be fifty-four head each, and of
the cattle stables 14S head. 1t is estimated
that these proposed buildings will cost
upwards of $40. 900. Architect Brodie has
been asked to furnish plans and estimates
of the cost of the building which will
probably be examined and passed upon at
the next meeting of the board The race
track at the fair grounds is reported to be
in excellent condition and within two
weeks it is probable that the horSe-stables
VIII be filled with racing stock.

ORGANIZED FARMERS.
The President Of the Farmers, Al.
liance Talks of It's Work

G. W. Sprague of Canton, Fillmore
county, president of the State Farmers
Alliance, was in the city yesterday. Mr..
Sprague was one of the earliest movers in
this organization in the state, some
six or seven years ago. has been president
OF the National alliance, and is now giving
very largely OF his time to the interests of
his growing and powerful order. He is a
man OF plain appearance, intelligent and
conservative, and his hands bear testimony
to the intermittent hard work he does on
his farm in Southern Minnesota. Regard
ing the interests he is officially concerned
with, he said:
The alliance is growing very rapidIv. If
anything too rapidly. There are now 400 ALI
ances in the state with a membership of
about $4,000. 1t is highly probable that its
strength will reach $4,000 by the fall cam
paign, and some expect it TO reach 90, GOO
II S too early TO talk much abont politics i'm
the alliance. 1 know there has been
considerable talk about political rings
getting their work in on the alliance but they
have made failure of it. don't think Mr..
Castle has any hold on the farmers of the
state. Our Efforts will be directed mainly
towards getting necessary amendments made
to the railroad and warehouse laws Idon't
think convict labor will be prominent issue
with us, though we may take il ND if the
Knights of Labor push the fight. The alliance
is in close sympathy with the Knights of
Labor and other labor organizations for
we are both fighting the aggressious of grasp
ing monopolies and the expressions of can't
tai. AT the same time we do not couute-
nance radical and unlawful proceedings.
We are conservative element and will prove
sheet anchor 10 them in time of trouble
The knights are different class from what
they once were when they had a communistic
tendency. we have fOnpd that fhax
intelligent class and are largely men
OF sterling Character. Together we
will hold the balance of power
in Legislation, and we will use it wisely and
conservatively. There will never be any
trouble between farmers and their labor
Hired hands get $50 month or more with
board and when you average their time Won
will find that they don't work more than nine
hours a day. Then the conditions nre
different from those of trade labor"
