need rain to turn them into larger
ones. We had our first mess of beans

while here called on Mr.. A. A. Ran
some's turnip patch and almost dam
med up the creek with the tops. Mr..
Ransome said he did not care so much
about the turnips if they had not left
his gate open and exposed his crop to
the stock that were running out on the
commons. 1t is bad practice to go
in the enclosure of any farmer and
leave his gates open. Our legislature
passed an act for the protection of far
mers, making it unlawful for anyone
to hunt or fish on the premises of a
person without written permission,
so all farmer has to do is to enforce
the law.

Spedalto me Mt7oS
If the good editor will give me a lit
tie space | will give you all short
history of our present conditions. We
have had some awful hard rains and
winds. The damage TO growing crops
is hard to estimate. Most of the time
for the last two weeks railroad facili-
ties have been shut off by washouts
and lost bridges. One bridge which
cost $50, 900 was lifted from its pillars
and turned bottom side up last week.
There is something near half mil
lion dollars damage to property in Yer
non, with loss of two lives, and
three slightly injured Lots of dwell
ing houses were literally demolished
but occupants were sheltered in dug
outs and were not injured. Wagner S
National bank, a large brick building,
was considerably wrecked The round
house of Frisco R. r. was demolish-
ed. An oil mill was also blown to the
ground. Then torrent of rain fol-
lowed, nearly destroying growing
crops, so we have about half stand,
and some are planting again. Can't
expect over half crop now, for it is
too late. This is the 10th of June and
but little is being done on the farms
as it is still too wet for some to get in
to the fields
! am sorry to see the subject of min
isterial support drifting into malice
and slang discussion. Got my paper
today and was glad to see the good ma.
tured editor has shut off such Islander.
Gus, bigoted backbiting, for unles,
ministers or other classes can discuss
Gods holy Word in love and meekness
and with a God-loving gentle spirit,
they had better let it alone. | did hope
this would be searched into and set
what is God g plan of supporting his
servnts. There are two questions, one
of which is of the most Importance
and the other the most interesting
that can be proposed in language: Art
we to live after DEATH If so, then il
what state. Then taking this view o.
life it does seem to me that people ant
especially ministers Of the Gospel
ought to be able to take up subjec
of such great importance as we had NJ
and discuss same in a spirit of love
and meekness and refrain from drift
ing into hurtful sayings, but use {
thus sayeth the Lord for their toun
dation of argument, and see what Coo
told us was needful But, | toll
you, when my last piece was writer
in reply to G.. W. White, that whel
that went to press l was through witt
the discussion as / saw where it wa
drifting to, and | did not wish to en-
gage in such, so I see the good edito
has asked n Shut off 40 I am nrOud q
: it and ask pardon for this | al
through on the subject, but will say
: if G. w. White wishes to discuss tn
subject with an ordained minister,
have one for him, and also an edito
that will publish same if discussed i
the right spirit, the subject to be 81
minister of the Gospel has God-give
right to charge for preaching the Cos
