WHAT PETER SAID.
Some thing for the Consideration

Som thing for the Consideration Of
That Good Christian. MI. Knapp.
To the Editor of THE COURIER.
Elk PoINr, S. D., Feb. ST noticed
the articles in the Akron Register, the
Vermillion Plain Talk and a special
from this town to the Sioux Falls
Argus in regard to the Rev. Pipes,
Congregational minister of this city,
using the pulpit for personal abuse in
stead OF dispensing the gospel.
Shades of Welliver" deliver us! What
a fire a little spark kindleth. Isuppose
they are all true Christians that wrote
the articles, but would you please tell
them for me through your columns
that they know about as much of the
duties of a minister and of the con-
tents OF the Bible as they do of a Greek
almanac. In the first place, it is the
duty OF all ministers to preach the law
and the gospel as laid down by the
Great Creator, and il you don't accept
then, the Divine Maker saws. shake
the dust of. your feet us a testimony
against them. Now, the Leader came
out with the following article January
1G:
IF the s~toolpigeon preachers OF plu-
tocratic tendencies would preach a
little more against the hell they see
instead OF tne one they have not yet
seen they would not be troubled so
much in securing larger congrega-
tions."
Rev. Mr.. Pipes made some remarks
in his sermon in regard TO the article.
He had IA perfect right to criticise the
remarks made in the Leader. We
should respect the reverend gentle
men who preside over our churches,
and are doing what they can for our
good, and not make such smutty re-
marks as ''stool pigeon preachers etc"
And, no editor who Is a true Chris
tian, and a believer in the bible, will
make such assertions. The editor OF
the Leader states he never knew the
lowly Nazarene to ride on a bicycle,
wear a plug hat and keep a bird dog.
Too bad. To such editors 1 would a
read what Paul, the greatest of all
preachers states in the bible. Paul
said: Il am all things unto all men in
order to bring them unto Christ" So
ii there had been bicycles in those days
Paul would have rode ON one with the
rest Of the boys, and 1 am sure
he 0 a plug hat, and kept a
bird dog, for every thing points that
way. ANCIENT.

Lawrence County robacoo.

~ 1890 ON''Ny AODACCOs
One OF the tobacco men who was
here recently has written very
encouraging letter. lie states that
before he left this county he saw
some tobacco Of a finer quality than
Is produced in his sectlon-Ilenry
and Shelby counties. lie says the
highest grade Of Burley tobacco
can be produced here, though it
may lack something in weight.
The great point Of difference is in
the price OF the lands in the old To-
bacco districts and in this section.
Here the lands can be bought for
81 an acre Down In Kentucky the
rental costs from $50 to $780, year
per acre. II they can make the
business pay at those prices what
ought the possibilities to be in this
section?
The tobacco crop Is a cash crop
and one ON which the farmers can
get adyances from merchants
while II Is growing.
All the argument needed Is to
look at Carter county, which a few
years ago was In such deplorable
condition financially that people
were leaving the county IN large
numbers to escape the burden Of
excessive taxation. Tobacco rails
ing was introduced and the county
Is now more prosperous than any
OF her neighbor counties, and the
population Is being increased con-
sianlly by immigration. The same
results can be accomplished here.
