PROF. BRIGGS TRIUMPHANT.

Union IheOlOglcal OchoOl IN New
York, and the Lane Theological
Seminary in Ohio, two Of the leading
theological schools of the Presbyterian
church, are now according to the late
General Assembly Of the Presbyterian
church, teaching heresy. A little
learning is dangerous If the
Presbyterian church wishes to pre-
serve Intact its old faith and tradition
alism, it ought to abolish its schools
right away. For most men Of good
brain power who spend their life in
study and theological research will
not, if they are honest, hold to the old
Presbyterian views. Most all the
great theological movements have
sprung up about the schools.
Unitarianism first broke out in this
country at Harvard Divinity School,
then Congregational and the first
and oldest school founded by the
Puritan fathers. And during the
Unitarian revolution in Massachusetts
it passed wholly under the control of
the Unitarians. The Andover
Theological school was then founded
by the Congregationalists to preserve
the old views Of the church intact.
But few years ago Andover pro-
claimed probation after death and is
at present very liberal in its views
and far from being orthodox accord
ing to the old standard. The
Congregational church for a while
undertook to discipline Andoyer,
perhaps not quite so severely as the
Presbyterian is now trying to dicipline
union. But for while Andover was
not we'll patronized. The number Of
its students greatly decreased, but
soon it began to grow more rapidly
than ever, and now it is one of the
great theological schools of America.
Its halls and class rooms are crowded.
And the Presbyterian church can't
silence or change the views now being
taught at Union, because they are in
the right direction and right will
prevail. The Congregational and
Presbyterian churches have always
given much attention to education.
They are scholarly bodies compar-
atively, and have done much to
promote individu alism in thought
But as long as they are scholarly and
progressive, there will always be more
or less decension. A church that has
no discussions or differences possesses
really little vitality or merit. A score
or more of the elderly divines of the
Presbyterian church controlled the
assembly at Washington. But they
will soon be dying off, and Presby-
terianism will march on with the rest
of the world. Prof. Briggs has
succeeded in advertising the liberal
faith as no other man of the times
has. His recent defense of it has
been read by millions. In no other
way could lie have done so much to
disseminate and propagate his teach
ings. The antiquarians have succeeded
in taking the Presbyterian brand off
Briggs, but his ideas 60 triumphantlY
marching on. Instead of the old
ideas being strengthened by this trial
they have been greatly weakened
The great trial will now be discussed
in the leading magazines and news
papers for months, and surely DR..
Briggs has been the great star.

and several other machine warehouses
on the north side, school and dozens
of residences. At 4 o'clock Moorhead
alarm was sounded. It was thought
the fire had crossed the river, and the
Moorhead companies came back, but
flames did not cross. The Grand

In periods OF unrest and business
depression in the older sections there
is more emigration than when
everything is prosperous. 1t is pos
sible then that, should there be a
financial crisis and a cessation of
many business Industries in the East,
the West CT the thinly settled por
lions of it will receive large cmigra-
ton. South Dakota is now rcceiv-
ing very large immigration, larger
indeed than it has had for seven Or
eight years In the times when
many are thrown out of employ
mcnt there are always quite Il per-
centage OF them who are able to sell
out atsOme price or raise funds in
some way so as to be able to move
and start with some capital in a new
country. There is already much
talk in the East OF cmigra ton
And if there is the Upper Mississippi
and northern Minnesota ought to
get it's share OF it.

A few days ago gentleman from
New York who was visiting Little
Falls in a TRANSCRIPT interview
said: There is not a dearth of
money in the country, but rather a
dearth Of confidence" Rev. H. M.
Simmons, of the First Unitarian
church, Minneapolis, said Sunday:
"Of the more immediate causes of
business panics most may be included
under the general principle Of dis
turbance of mutual confidence. For
on this confidence modern business is
based. In the easy times, business
morality grows less strict, regular
trade passes into rash schemes for
making money faster, and even
crooked ways Of making it sometimes
come to be condoned and looked
upon as aalmost legitimate. So the
work goes on until confidence is
overdone, and honest mother nature
calls halt. Dishonest firms get
caught in their own trickery and 90
down; honest ones which had assumed
larger burdens than they can bear
break under them, and the reaction
sets in. Distrust begins and increases,
failures breed failures. It is natures
way OF correcting the overconfdence
that had run wild. We want to work
for mutual trust among men, but still
more for honest and solid business
methods that can lie trusted"
Supt. Kiehle in the Atlantic has
an article on "The Educational Trend
of the Northwest" in which he takes
ground somewhat in favor Of the
Observation-Disclosures plan of compro-
missing with the Catholics and the ab.
clifton of separate schools for religions
in instruction. He argues that reli-
gionists of whatever prejudices should
come to recognize the fact that their
children can pro6tably receive secula,
instruction at the hands Of teachers in
the public schools who may be Pro.
testant or Roman Catholic, Jew or
NIoham medan as secular teachers
while special religious and sec'arian
instruction may be given within the
church or at home. He seems to in.
dictate that the great barrier to recon.
Citation of the Catholics with our pub
lie school system is the attitude of the
more extreme and radical religionist'
Of all denominations.

Complaint comes from North Da'
kota of the isolation of farm life oc-
casioned by the big bonanza farms
they prevent neighbors, schools
churches and other attendants of civ
ilization. Smaller farms would rem
der life in agricultural districts more
social, but farm villages as in the ole
countries of Europe would be better
still for the promotion of social anc
intellectual life.

To broil perfectly, over fire, requires con.

Place an ordinary sheetiron pan. one.quar.
sand is preferable-upon the bottom oven
plate to catch the drippings; grease the oven

is required. Place the steaks upon the oven
slide; close the wire gauze oven door for
three to five minutes-large steaks require
ten to fifteen minutes-and the steak will be
thoroughly cooked on top and bottom al
the same time.

Weather Crop Bulletin,

i he Minnesota Weather service
with headquarters at Minneapolis
mas issued the following general
summary under date Of June 6:
The weather conditions during the
week were very favorable and all
crops advanced rapidly. The rain.
fall, consisting of gentle showers.
was well distributed and not ex-
cesslve, except in very few
localities in the southern portion Of
the state. The temperature and
sunshine were slightly in excess and
very beneficial, causing a rapid
growth in all crops. Seeding and
planting is now practically finished.
Winter wheat in the valleys is foot
high add spring wheat has stoolcd
nicely everywhere, having healthy
growth: Early planted corn looks
healthy and is coming up we'll except
in Houston Co, where a considerable
amount failed to terminate, owing
either to poor seed or an excess of
moisture, not vet determined, but
probably a combination of both.
Elsewhere in the Southern district
the early planted corn is now up so
that the rows can be distinguished
and cultivation has just begun in
some fields. The corn acreage has
been largely Increased in Scott Co.,
and the acreage in fax is consider
bly, greater than last year in Nor
man co. Meadows and pasturage
are reported in excellent condition
some cOuties stating that they never
looked better, The damaging con-
ditions during the week were few
and isolated. Winona Co. reports
chinch bugs and grub worms numer-
GUS; Mobiles Co. an excess in rainfall
which it is feared will cause the stra w
to be too large, and the warm
| weather following brings danger OF
| blight. High winds on the 26t h
injured late sown wheat and oats in
Hubbard Co.. but they are fast
recovering under the favorable
weather conditions that ensued
Native fruit is in full bloom and very
abundant in the Northern districts.
