M. II. Nichols, the Free Methodist min
lister formerly member of the Methodist
Episcopal church, who circulated the
papers in which were the charges against
the character of Presiding Elder Ford
of the Seattle district, was interviewed
Mt the county jail last night by permission

led up to his attack on Elder Ford. He
replied:

influence to send me, who had been well
up in the conference, to the most unde-
sirabie charges because l opposed him
and his methods; also because he de-
meaned himself TO force ]. I. McMil-

The assignee sale of chattel property
Of the Sargent & Diggs farm took place
last Thursday at the Corona farm and on
Friday at the farm just south Of town
The property was rapidly disposed of, rs
there was large crowd in attendance at
both sales, and the auctioneer |. T. Wise
carver, of Fairfield, Iowa, proved an
adept at his business, making the sales
rapidly and in good order, and in his dis
posal of the chattels won an excellent
reputation rs an auc,ioneer. All Of the
property was sold at satisfactory figures
excepting the two full blooded stable
horses, the price of which was estimated
at 20 per cent. OF former value. The
present condition Of financial matters ia
the country sufficiently accounts for the
lack Of bidders for the high priced ami
mails. The sales at the Corona farm
amounted to s. 800 and at the Home
farm to $500.

.Rev - Clifford at II : Old Tricks

A recent telegram from Valley City to
the Minneapolis Tribune would indicate
that a change of climate from South to
North Dakota has not had the effect OF
improving the moral character ot the
man who few wears ago made such a
sensation IN this city The "Rev." gen
tleman should have been breaking stone
at Sioux Fails instead of preaching for a
number of years past. The telegram ls
as follows:
Valley City, N. D., March 6-Rev. W.
E. Clifford pastor of the Epworth Metho
dist Church at this city has gotten into a
church scandal owing to a young lady, a
member Of the church. whom, 1t is said,
he "suddenly and before she could antlci-
pate the act, put his arm around and
kissed. A long statement has been pub
llshed purportlng TO come from the
young lady, and considerable OF a
rumpus is stirred up IN the circles of
this city 1t is even claimed 10y the Al
lance, one OF the papers published IN the
city, that the reyerened gentleman had
been tangled up in a case where he had
made improper advances to member of
his church. Whether there is any truth
to the statement is not known.
This man Clifford while in Milbank
was guilty Of one Of the gravest and
most depraved acts known 10 society,
made doubly SO by the position he oc-
cupied as preacher of christianity
When the public wake up to the fac,
that they can not afford to condone these
crimes against society, and the higher
authorities in the church understand
that when they allow them to pass un.
punished the church must suffer the
consequent reproach which it brings up
on religion, there will be fewer of these
lecherous creatures turned out upon the
people with the privilege Of cloaking
their rottenness behind the garb Of the
ministerial profession.
