Reducing the surplus.

The disposition of the Surplus
in the Z. S. Treasury engages the
attention of our Statesmen, but a
more vital question has our atten-
ton, and that is the reduction OF
Consumptives. Since the discov-
cry and introduction of DR.. Kings
New Discovery for Consumption,
there has been a marked decrease
in the mortality from this dreaded
disease, and il is possible to still
further reduce the number Of Con-
sumpuves. Howl BY keeping
constsntly at hand a bottle Of DR..
Kings New Discovery and using
as a cough. a cold, a sore throat, a
chest or side pain. Taken thus
early cure is guaranteed. Trial

ANOTE TO IMMIGRANTS.
Personsseeking locations for per.
manent homes would do well to
consult the United States census re-
port Of 1850, and post themselves
upon the advantages offered by a
state or community before making
up their minds. But recently our
attention has been called TO some
figures taken from the last census,
which present the advantages of
our own section in a most impress
sive attitude when connected with
other sections of the Union.
In this article the comparison is
made between Chiokasaw county,
Miss, Jefferson county Iowa, Craw-
ford county Kansas, and Chemung
county, n. Y.
The census indicate that these
counties are average counties IN
population, productions and wealth
Of the respective States to which
they belong, and the States ofNew
York, Kansas and Iowa enjoy the
reputation Of being the banner ag-
ricultural States Of their respective
sections.
The population ofthese counties
are as follows:
Jefferson county, Iowa, 1879
Crawford county, Kan, 1858
Chemung county, n. Y, S7,947
Chickasaw county, Miss, 1885
The number of farms and acres
in cultivation are
Jefferson, 22S9 embracing 262,-
s9s acres.
Crawford, 2255 embracing 8l3-
3s4 acres.
Chemung, 26ll embracing 245,-
900 acres.
Chickasaw. 1892 embracing 247,-
98l acres.
The 5aluation of these farms in
cludisg cost of agricultural nipple.
ments, live stock and repairing Of
fences is as follows:
Jefferson county, Iowa, 1888, 242.
Crawford county, Kan, ,O47,377.
Chemung county, N. Y. 1922, 1873
Chickasaw county Miss, 2,5l9, OPS.
The value of the products raised
on the farms in the counties annual
", is estimated in the census at the
following figures:
Jefferson county, s1,20l, 695.
Crawford county, l,053,09
Chemung county, 1866, 940.
Chickasaw county, ] 066, 449.
It will thus be seen from the Ia
bIes that the amount ofland in Gull
tiyation in these counties is nearly
equal, as is also the value Of the
products, but when we come to
consider the amount Of capital in
vested, the contrast is most strik-
ing. A simple calculation will
show that the lands IN Iowa which
cost to put them in a state Of cult
walton about $4,000 per acre, yields
an average of $500 per acre an
nually.
In Kansas, farms costing SIG per
acre yield an income of only 1894
per acre. In New York, the aver
age cost of farm lands would seem
to be more than s4s per acre, and
the income little more than Sc. In
this State taking our own county
as an average the cost Of the land,
stock and farming implements is
less than 81 per acre and the pro-
duct sells for $3.50.
The per cent then on the capital
employed, If the amount of labor
to be performed was the same in
each Of these States, would be as
follows.
Iowa farming, IA per cent.
Kansas farming, 2I
New York farming, PIP"
Mississippi farming, so "

CHURCH TROUBLES ENDED.
Elder Gray's Farewell Sermon to
His Congregation.

The trouble in the Pilgrim Baptist
church seems at last to be in fair way
of settlement. Elder Gray having re-
signed the passionate and stepped down
and out. 1t is stated that tifty-one MEM
bers of the congregation who have sup
ported him during the turbulence have
petitiOned the church for letters of
Withdrawal in order that they may or
ganize another society, "practicing and
teaching" says the petition, nothing
but the doctrine of the New Tesla
ment."
Elder Gray delivered his farewell
sermon yesterday afternoon in the
presence of a large congregation.
receiving his inspiration from the ninth
ter of the Acts of the Apostles: Then
spake the Lord to Paul in the night by
a vision: Be not afraid, but speak, ana
hold not thy peace. For l am with thee,
and no man shall set on thee, to hurt
thee: for l have much people in this
CITY,"
The discourse was little more than
review of the diSsensiOns that have
arisen in the church, in which
the elder endeavOred to show that
he and his followers had been
ever in the right, and their opponents
as continuously in the wrong. He also
dwelt at slength upon the work he had
done in the church. having placed the
society on a good financial basis and
under his administration increased the
membership about IS per cent. lie con-
cluded his sermon by reading severe
lecture to the congregation, in which he
criticised everybody and everything
CONNECTED WITH THE CHURCH.
There are at least six persons i'm sthe
Pilgrim Baptist church" he remarked,
''who must either be converted to God
or turned out of the society, for it will
be necessary for Almighty God
TO create a preacher who can
preside over this church. You are
not willing to accept a leader. Every
member of the church wants to be a
brigadier-general, and there are none
who will act as privates. The church
will never prosper until you can learn
to agree among yourselves. L do not
believe that anything but death would
harmonize the forty-eight members of
this congregation who are opposing me.
I've had too much opposition from the
ministry-not the intelligent, but the
licentiate ministry, young men of the
church who want TO be preachers,
but who have not the necessary
brains or education"
The service closed with a hymn and
benediction. after which the pastor re-
quested his friends TO come forward,
Shake hands and make such dona 10 s
as they might wish. Many complied
with the invitation of the departing
shepherd and several left substantial
tokens of their regard in the shape of
liberal financial contributions.

CHRIsT's CHARACTER.
President Northrop Discusses Its
Human Discipline.


''What think you of Christ? Whose
son is He?" An eloquent sermon,
based upon these wordS-Matt. xii,
42-was delivered in the Plymouth Con-
gregational church yesterday morning
by DIR. Cyrus NorthrOp, president of the
state university. There was a large
congregation present. and the discourse
attracted considerable attention, DIR.
Northrop outlining the life of the
Savior in lucid and charming man
ner, His desire was to present some
thoughts respecting the human life of
Jesus, and to emphasize especially the
human side of his character. In doing
so he hoped to establish among them
more sympathy with Jesus as the Son
of Man. and inspire more complete con-
fidence in His mercy and love as the
Son Of God. Jesus life on earth was
not a dramatic representation: every
scene prepared especially for artistic
effect. 1t was a real human life; for
verify, He took not on Him the nature
of angels, as He might have done, but
the seed of Abraham-"W in
all things it behooved Him to be made
like unto men," Any view which
regarded Jesus from first to last
not human-without human limita-
tions-would make the whole career of
Jesus sham. Why was He born in a
manager? Why did lie lead a humble
life? And why His whole career one of
humility and sorrow? Was it pre-
tense or was it real discipline? The
preacher continued the argument,
showing that it was reality in the de-
velopment of Chrst's human life, SO
that He would be better fitted to appre-
ciate the sorrows. of the poor from His
own experience. The discipline of
Jesus, like the discipline of any other
man. was intended TO fit Him for His
work. Truly, in Jesus we have not

THE YIELD UNEVEN.
The Good and Bad AdjOin in the
Wheat Districts.


Though a little strange, it is the fact
that some farmers are getting fair
yield of wheat which will go No.
hard, while others in the same immedi-
ate vicinity may have had a
field of wheat that was barely
worth cutting, suggests the Red
Lake Falls News. There has
been number of such cases that have
come under our observation. and from
reports throughout the county, west of
here, where they have threshed the
same condition of the crop is general.
As the price for wheat is now
pretty good. and still on the
rise, these farmers that are blessed
with a good crop will have
reason to feel rich this fall, while the
unlucky ones whose crop failed, will
have as good reason to feel poor. We
are glad to announce, however, that
there are very few of the unfortunate
ones through the county east and
outheast of Red Lake Falls; there is
scarcely any one but what has a
fair crop, and what wheat they
have got is of good quality. 1t looks
considerably more encouraging since
the farmers threshed, so that they can
see what they got, and in most instan-
ces they are receiving a better grade
than they expected. There is no frozen
wheat reported east or southeast of Red
lake Falls.
