The Weather Report

During the past week we have
been having unusually warm
weather for the Plains country,
many claiming that it was the
warmest for nine years, but there
have been occasional showers
over the country. Yesterday
afternoon a heavy rain came up
at Canyon City and lasted for
over an hour with indications
that the rain extended all over
the county. Last night a slow.
gentle rain began about nine
O'Clock and lasted throughout the
night and this morning when we
go to press it is still raining. The
rain last night appears to be gen.
eral for at least a number of
counties surrounding Randall.

Notice Of Meeting.

under the management or the
Christian church, conducted by
the evangeliStic team of Reavis
and Robertson. The Rev. B. G
Reavis of Elsberry, Mo-, is an
evangelist of great power which
is attested by the fact that he
has time to respond only to a
few of the calls from the evan
gelistic field, and when once had
in a meeting is always wanted
again. He is a man of strong
personality, of deep conviction
and of sterling Christian charac-
ter. His argument reaches the
intellect and his intense love, yea
passion for souls, reaches the
heart.
w. w. Robertson of Clark,
Mo-, is an excellent leader of
song. Suffice to say that he is
a worthy co-worker with the no
ted evangelist.
BY their fruits We shall know
them" Below is inserted a
sketch from the Center Herald
of Center, Mo-, at which place a
meeting was recently held.
The Reavis- Robertson pro
tracted meeting at this place
after continuing for three weeks
came to "a close Sunday night.
Bowling Reavis, yet a young
man in full vigor of life, with an
earnestness of heart and pur-
pose that but few men put in
their work, preached series of
the most forcible and notable
sermons ever heard in this part
of the state beside which Sam
Jones sermons are freaks. Rea-
Wis INDUCES in no abuse. His
admOnitions to the profesSed
followers of Christ to make good
on all the requirements of a
Christian are as needful as
strong and apt as his plea to the
sinner standing on the outside
of Christ to abandon his ungodly
life and come out under the ban
ner of God for his own, his com.
munity's and his cOuntryS good.
He has no word of cenSure for
the poor misguided wretch whose
opportunities in life have been
limited. He shows to all from
the divine word the bountiful-
ness of Gods love and mercy.
He came among us a stranger
and left everyone his friend. He
left admirers among those who
thought to hate him for disturb
ing the pleasant day dreams of
their careless easy going lives.
He forced respect with the truth
Just like the truth will win respect
from all and everyone who has
planted in his heart the elements
of honesty and good citizenship.
His Sunday evening address to
men, his appeal to them in and
out of the church to stand up for
and do the thing that men are
expected to stand up for and do
was sublime and met with a
hearty response. We were in
different when he came, we were
interested while he stayed and
regretted to see him leave.
The song service led by The
singer w. w. Robertson of Ran
dolph county was, to US the slang
phrase of the street, worth the
money. The splendid music was
much enjoyed by our people. "
\ very successful meeting is
drawing to a close in our city,
but one of so short a duration is
unable to reach the many scores
of people who are unsaved. In
union there is strength which
has again been proved by the re
cent meeting. We here invite
and earnestly pray that Chris
tan people of all religious bodies
will unite with us in a mutual
campaign against sin, and as Co
workers to be instruments in

MAINE LEGISLATURE
CONTINUED From Page Four.)

Mr.. MINOTT Of Sagadahoc: Mr.
President, so far as this matter goes,
/ do not care to take the time of the
Senate, but it seems as though, where
we have two laws at the present time
on our books, this bill is hardly drawn
as it ought to be. and 1 move that it
be indefinitely postponed.
The question being upon the motion
to Indefinitely postpone the bill, the
motion prevailed.
Mr.. Eaton of Washington presented
and moved the passage of the following
order under suspension of the rules:
STATE OF MAINE.
In the Senate, March go, 1909.
Ordered, That the justices of the SUI
preme judicial court are hereby re-
specially requested to give to the
Senate on or before April /, 1910, at
which time the tax bill for 1910 goes in
to effect, according to the provisions
of the Constitution in this behalf, their
opinion on the following questions:
Would the act entitled AN Act re-
lating to the common school fun and
means providing for an distributing the
same" whereby a tax of one mill is
Stateand distributed by the treasurer
of the State to the several cities, towns
and plantations according to the valu
alton thereof, and q true copy of said
bill is hereunto. annexed, if the same
should become a law, be in violation
of the Constitution of the State of
Maine?
Mr. EATON of Washington: Mr..
President: I would say in explanation
of this order, that the order is an i'm
portant one. and, as the best lawyers
of our State differ as to the constitu-
tionality of this act, it seemed only
fitting that this important matter
should be referred to the supreme
court If the court brings in a dcci-
sion, it saves the State ANNOYANCE and
expense. / hope that the order may
have a passage
Mr.. WHEELER of Cumberland: Mr..
President: The Constitution provides
that the Governor and Council, the
Senate or the House of Representa-
tivCs, may require the opinion of the
justices of the supreme court upon any
important question of law and upon a
solemn occasion. There is no question
that the matter presented and en-
bodied in the bill which has passed
this Legislature is an important qucS-
