is library. It is literature. 1t is a
library Of the sacred literature of Juda-
ism aud of Christianity. 1t is the in
spired record of the revelation of God,
in history and in Christ, made by pro-
phet and apostle. 1t is also record of
the inspired Interpretation ofthis revel-
alton by,these same agents.
Just because the Bible is a record of
the testimony of the original witnesses
of the facts of the revelation of God in
history, it is, and ever will be, the ap-
peal of God to the mind and heart of
man: and it is rightly called "the word
of God.n And just because it is trust
worthy record of the original witnesses
of this revelation of God, and the only
trustworthy record, it is and always
will be normative; and it is, therefore,
rightfully called Canonical Scriptures.
And just because no other literature
records the testimony of eye-and-ear
witnesses to the facts of Gods revela-
ton of himself and his purposes, in
Christ, however good and useful such
literature may be, it can never be cam
ononicaI for the Christian life. The
Bible alone is and alone will continue
to be the rule of faith.

FARIBAULT BANK FAILURE.

The failure of the First National
bank of Farlbault is one of the most
disastrous in the history of the
state. With liabilities aggregating
half a million, the receiver is un-
able to locate over $780, 900 in good
assets. The failure affects 1000
families. manv of them being farm
ers and dependent persons who
trusted implicitly in the rectitude
OF the head of the bank, E. B. Glenn
ents, the founder of the bank and
for thirty years it's president.
Among the heavy losers we note
the name of A. w. Kinstry, an old
and honored member of the news
paper fraternity, who. is bonds

The directors have attempted to
fix the blame on the bank examin-
er, but the latter comes back at the
directors with charges, of gross
negligence.
Three-fourths of the paper In this
bank was from three to eight years
old, and was kept alive to avoid be-
ing charged off as a loss by pay
ment or crediting of interest there

it was the DUTY of the directors to
know these facts and not the bust

they come to the knowledge of the
examiner. President Clements has
been arrested and is now under
bonds to answer a number of spe-
ciic charges. The unfortunate man

Give Your Stomach a Rest.

Your food must be properly digested and
assimilated to be of any value to you. If
your stomach is weak or diseased take Ko-
dol Dyspepsia Cure. It digests what you
eat and gives the stomach rest, enabling
it to recuperate, take on new lite and grow
strong again. Kodol cures sour stomachs,
gas. bloating. heart palpitation and all di-
gestive disorders. L. A. Soper, of Little
Rock, KY, writes us. I'VE feel that Kodol
DYSPEPSIA Cure deserves all the commenda-
ton that can be given it, as it saved the life
of our little girl when she was three years
old. She is now six and we have kept it for
her constantly, but of course she only takes

A PIONEERS BIRTHDAY.

The sons and daughters of Bern
hard Kuenzli celebrated the S0th
birthday of their father, at his home
in North Redwood last Wednesday.
They took along baskets generously
filed with good things, so that
father and mother Kuenzli had only
to sit still and look pleasant while
the sons and daughters who had
surprised them waited on them and
played the host
Father Kuenzli is perhaps the
only man living in this vicinity,
with the exception of John Thomas,
who has lived here continuously
for more than forty years, coming
here in 1864, and installing his FAM
lily on the old homestead in 1865.
Three sons and four daughters,
with enough grandchildren to fill
up all the corners of their North
Redwood home, were present at the
anniversary, aud all enjoyed the
reunion to the limit. The many
friends and neighbors of father and
mother Kuenzli join with their pos
terity in wishing them many sue
ceeding birthdays as pleasant as
their last one.

of the experiences and the institutions
that grew out of it, That is to say
this literature contains the facts both
of the revelation of God and of the ex-
periences of the people; and out of
these facts the critical scholar may
write history both of revelation and
Of the kingdom of God.
Our fourth Is rather negative an
swer. The Bible strictly speaking is not
the word of God. We call it in COM
mon speech the word of God; and there
is sense in which this is true AS
compared with any other literature, it
is emphatically the word of God; for
Gods character and purposes are pic
tured in this as in no other literature.
However, we must not confound the
Bible with either the revelation or the
word of God, and certainly not with
the perfect word of God. AS we have
seen, the revelation was progressively
made, "in many fragments and in
many fashions as the people were
able to understand it and to be profited
by it. A progressive revelation can
be said to be perfect only in the sense
that its development is in harmony
with the development of the people;
and thus it always meets their growing
demands. This is a relative perfection.
But absolute perfection was impossible
till the revelation was complete. Christ
completed, therefore, he perfected the
revelation, The scriptures of the old
and new testement are the inspired and
faithful record of the facts and the in
terpretations of the progressive revela-
ton of God; and the ''word of Cod"
so far as it is to be found in these scrip
lures, Is in the facts and the the in
spired interpretations. And especially
in the facts of the life of Jesus and
their interpretations by his ambassadors,
the apostles.
No prophet, "no man hath seen God
at any time, the only begotten son,
who is in the bosom of the Father, he
hath declared him." Hence, he: and
he alone is "The word of God.'
This then is the answer to our ques-
ton, "What is the Bible?" The Bible

TERMS OF DISTRICT COURT.
Mr.. Clague introduced a bill i

Mr.. Clague introduced bill into
the house last Thursday prescrib-
ing the time of holding the general
terms of the district court in the
ninth judicial district. The bill is
curative act; it will be remembered
that the last term of court in Red
wood county lasted only three days
by reason of the fact that the 1903
law provided that the Lyon county
term of court should commence on
the third Tuesday in the lnonth,
while the Redwood county term
was scheduled for the second We'd
nesday after the second Monday in
the month, making the redwood
county term commence on Nov. 8
and the Lyon county term on the
18th.
Mr.. Clague's bill provides that
hereafter the spring term of court
in Red wood county shall commence
on the third Tuesday in April and
the fall term on the first Wednes-
day after the first Monday in No
vember. The spring term in Nicol-
let county is to commence on the
first Tuesday in May and the fall
term on the third Tuesday in Oc-
tober. Lyon county's spring term
is to commence on the first Tuesday
in June and the fall term on the
fourth Tuesday in November, plac-
ing the latter one week later than
during the past two years. The
Brown county spring term will
commence on the third Tuesday in
May and the fall term on the Sec
ond Tuesday in December. Lin
coin county will have only one term
of court during each year and it
commences on the first Tuesday in
October.

WHAT IS THE BIBLE?
(From Sd page.)

result Of their mental life expressed in
writing. And whatever else the bible
is it is this 1t is the record of the ac-
.cumulated experience and thought of
the Hebrew people from whom sprang
Judaism and out of which grew the
christian church. Israel stood cons
clously in a peculiar relation to God,
and whatever else her life and expert
ence was, it was first Of all religious
hence the writings by prophet, priest
and sage, recording this experience,
was necessarily and supremacy reIigi-
Gus. Gods revelation was progressive
and only reached its elimination in
the life and teachings of Jesus. The
apostles and prophets Of the Christian
dispensation interpreted and recorded
the facts of this final revelation and
the experience, individual and social,
that grew out of it. And this record

In other words, God was in the exper-
fences of his people and these prophets
and apostles interpreted and record
ed these experiences and their inter-
lpretetions of them; hence, they "spake
from God being moved by the Holy
Spirit"
Our third answer is that the Bible is
the inspired record of the progressive
revelation of God to men. 1t is not the
revelation itself. The real revelation of
God through and thus to his people
stands back of the record. God, like
any other person, reveals himself
by his own activities. But this revela-
ton must be realized in human eKper-
fence before it is recorded in human
speech,
The Bible then is not the the revela-
ton itself; neither is it the history of
revelation; nor is it a history of Gods
people. 1t is first of all literature, it
is an inspired literature, aad as such it
is faithful record of the revelation and

REWARD INDIAN FIGHTERS.
State Pension for Citizen Soldiers in
1862.

The citizen soldiers of Minnesota
in pioneer days, who aided in the
suppression of the Indian outbreak
in 1862, are granted state pension
of not more than $12 month for
life by bills introduced by Repre-
sentative George Mackenzie of Gay
lord and by Senator G. A. Benson
of Winthrop.
The bills allow state pension of
not more than $l2 a month for all
persons who bore arms, rendered
aid or suffered disability in the In
dian massacre of 1862, which devast-
ed SO much of southern Minnesota.
The services must have been rem
dered between Aug. Is and Sept.
Is, 1862, the period of the campaign
of state troops which effectually
checked the outbreak.
The pension is to begin Jan. !,
1905, and to continue throughout
the life of the pensioner. If he is
survived by widow, she is to be
allowed the pension, providing the
marital relation has existed since
1885. The pension is to apply to
persons drawing pensions or other
relief from the state of Minnesota
or the United States.
George N. Lamphere, secretary
of the soldiers home board, has re-
ceived word from Senator Clapp
that the prospects for the passage
of the bill placing the survivors OF
the Sioux wars on the pension list
are very bright. He writes that
the bill has already passed the SEN
ate and has been placed in the
hands Of congressman McCleary
and Lind in the house.
81 have every reason to believe, "
writes Senator Clapp, that it will
meet with favor in the house, and
will see the Minnesota members
regarding it at once. ! have sue
ceeded in convincing the members
of the senate that the survivors are
entitled to recognition by the fed
eral government.
A copy of the bill which passed
the senate was enclosed in the let
ter. 1t provides that all survivors
of the Indian wars of Minnesota
serving between the dates of
Sept. 1924, 1862, be eligible for
pensions under the general pension
laws of the United States.
Mr.. Lamphere notified Senator
Clapp yesterday that the dates of
service in the bill should Exchanged
to include the survivors of the bat
tie of Birch Coulie, which took
place Sept. %. Under the bill as
passed by the senate only the sur
yivors who served between the
dates of Sept 1924 can be placed on
the pension list.

said Mr.. Lamphere, was the fierc-

benefits of the pending legislation.

given in Kansas City, Kans., some

Forget the past? No, no; the tears
Of anguish by nation she'd
The sorrows of six hundred years.
The butcheries-t cries for bread
The dreary days of penal gloom
The broken pledges-all arise
Lika apparitions from the tomb,
And come before our mental eyes.
Forget the past? The names that
shine
Upon our country's hist'ry's page
Forbid that we at Mammon's shrine
Should offer up the heritage
That they have left-a love sincere,
A loyal faith, hope sublime:
Let towards forget! Those names 50

To us shall be undimmed by time!

The hope, the faith and trust in

That kept our land from dull despair
When by the tyrant's foot twas trod,
Assume form which bars the way
That leads to Lethe's silent sea,
And guides the feet, that fain would
stray,
To tread the paths of Memory.

For in the past bright flowers bloom
Than all the fow'rs of earth more

For worldly wisdom, wealth or fame

THE IRISH BRIGADE.
It's Last Battle Was That of Chan
cellorsviIle.

1t was on the 3rd Of May, forty-two
years ago, that the Irish Brigade, COM
manded by General Thomas Francis
Meagher, fought it's last battle at
Charlottesville. A glorious record
had been won by the brigade.
Consisting originally of 2,05O men,
it's regiments engaged, first, in the
battle of Fair Oaks. They defended
the front of the army, threw up ex-
tensive earthworks, performed duty
every third day, supported the COM
mand of Major-General Hooker on
three occasions when he was forcibly
pressed by the enemy, and covered, in
connection with the brigade COM
manded by General French, the re-
treat of the army corps under Major
General Porter, at Gaines Mill.
On the retreat of the Army of the
Potomac from before Richmond, the
brigade participated in the battles of
Peach Orchard, Savage's Station,
White Oak Swamp, Glendale and NAL
vern HILL First in the advance on
the march through Maryland to An
tietam, they supported Major-General
Hooker at South Mountain, and two
days after were cOnspicuOusly en-
gagged in the great attack which COM
PEELED the enemy to recross the Poto-
mac.
After the battle of Fredericksburg,
General MeaGher asked that three of
his brigades be temporarily relieved
from duty in the field, so as to be able
to return to the service of the Govern
ment with a strength commensurate
with their reputation. His request
was unheeded.
The battle of Charlottesville is
painfully memorable because of the
severe defeat suffered by the Union
arms and the sublime heroism dis
played by the relics of the once power
full Irish Brigade. On Sunday, May 8,
after marching through thick and
dangerous forest, General Meagher
was ordered to advance the Irish Brig
ade to the front to assist the Maine
Battery, then in desperate conflict
with the enemy. AS the Irish Brigade
marched through the columns that
lined the way, amid rain of shot
and shell, 1t was loudly and repeatedly
cheered After fierce battle, in
which the Irish fought gallantly, Gen
eral Meagher received orders to COM
mand the retreat, which he did with a
resolution that prevented utter defeat
and panic. Of the $40 men of the
Irish Brigade led into action. only $50
appeared next morning.
