That Endless PRAYER Chain.

Editor Tribune The request to-
offer q certain prayer, pretending to
come from Bishop Lawrence, that
each person receiving the request
send it to nine others, has reached
North Dakota.
The letter states that whoever ut
tiers the prayer as per copy enclosed,
every morning for nine days, will on
that day experience some great
Joy. and that whoever breaks the
chain will receive some great calam-
3ity.'''
Bishop Lawrence, through the
press Of the east. has repeatedly de-
MED ever having started such a re-
guest, and denounces the idea that
such results as some special blessing
or calamity, coming to q person, ac-
cording as the person does or does
not carry out this plan, as 6 silly and
nonsensical = To his statement
every intelligent Christian Of all de-
nominations can give his hearty
aamen.
1t would be doing q good service
IL the press Of North Dakota, like
that OF the eastern states, would ex-
pose this humbug. The endless chain
scheme pertaining to any subject is
a nuisance and should be froWned
down. but when started IN lie,
as IN the case Of this prayer chain.
and continued through the influence
OF threatsand fear, 1t becomes q bur-
1esque on the character OF our heaV-
emily father and on the sacred priyi-
lege OF communion with him. s.

Minot Expects Trains to be Running
to Capital City via the 500
July First.
Mino Optic: "A new and valuable
territory for the Minot wholesale
houses will be opened when the pro-
posed line between Minot and Bis
marck is completed. 3. y.
1t is stated on the best of authority
that the 500 will be running trains to
the capital city by July or the latter
part of the summer at the latest.
These trains will run via the Drake
extension which connects with the
500 extension north of Bismarck at
Garrison. It will be rather round
about way, but will be much shorter
than the present route via Valley
City. {s5s y
The trains will probably make
their northern terminal at Minot, a
fact which will make this city a still
greater railroad center.

When Commissioner Gilbreath called
the Real Estate Mems convention to
order Thursday afternoon the rooms
of the Commercial club were packed
with representatives Of the business
from all parts of the state. An effort
was made to secure register Of those
attending but they came in SO fast this
was found impossible. Is
Mr.. Gilbreath said in part: In
order that there can be no misunder-
standing will briefly state that the
meeting is for the purpose of correct
ing the many malicious and tmen-
dacious stories that have been circu-
lated and published in the east regard
ing the alleged fuel and food famine;
the alleged hardships, privations and
deaths resulting from the snow block
AIDES, inadequate railroad facilities in
all parts of the state and promiscuous
stories of such narrowing nature and
sensational character as to work in
jury to the progress Of the rapidly
developing state to which the tide of
Immigration has tended So generously.
We are not here to gloss over any thing
in the nature of facts but to get a
fair statement of actual conditions.
Gentlemen, what is your pleasure?"
e. K. Bull favored securing letters
from all parts of the state from the
older settlers giving their experiences
the past winter as compared to those
of other winters. ~ 81.
Mr. Gilbreath said: ssWe have here
men from all over the state; let them
get together and promulgate resolu-
tons to be presented to the legislature
through the special committee APP
pointed by that body to look into
these unfortunate reports, for in this
way we can be of material assistance

An adjournment was then taken to

lature and others to attend.
4. S Informal Talks. #
Upon reassembling at the capitol
there were number of informal talks
among the delegates as to the best
course to pursue Upon the meeting
being again called to order Commits
sioner Gilbreath read some letters
from parties in Mercer and other coun-
ties which had no railroads in which
they said the winter had been no worse
than many they had experienced save
for a short extra cold spell in Jan
uary;; that they had experienced no
particular inconvenience as they had
laid in their supplies for the winter
as usual and that the stock interests
had not suffered particle, which
letters, the commissioner said went
to show that where the people were
prepared for winter there was no
trouble; that the greater part OF the
trouble arose in cases where the peo-
pie we're accustomed to getting small
supplies at time and when the block
AIDE came, were more or less incon-
venienced and more than all, badly
scared.
