upon one city and caused it not i to ram upon another city. One piece was rained upon and the piece whereupon it rained not Withered."
 Zechariah 10:1--Ask of the Lord rain in the time of the lat ter rain so the Lord shall make orlgAt clouds and give them showers of rain and to everyone grass in the field"
 Zechariah, 14:17-"And it shall be that whosoever will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship upon them shall be no rain.'
 II Chronicles, When the heaven is shut up and they have sinned, yet if they pray" etc, etc.
 James, 5:17-18. Elisha pray ed that it might not rain, and then he prayed that it might rain. And while it is here said that he was a man of like pas sions unto ourselves, yet both of these prayer were answered.
 We have now seen that sin a. gainst God may shut up the heaven and cause God to with hold the rain, While on the oth- CT hand we have seen that we have Divine authority and ex- ample to pray for rain. Then we have Gods promise that if the people pray and turn from their wickedness that He will send the showers. See II ChrOn- icles, 7;12-14; Zechariah 10:1.
 Notice the fact, however, that Gods promise to send rain in answer to prayer is conditioned on the fact that they turn from their wickedness.
 Prayer would not open the hea- vens which sin had closed and bring rain down unless this sin or sins were forsaken, < But He says, If you walk in my statutes and keep my con- mandments and do them, then will I give you rain in due seas on." Besides all this, there are numerous instances on record where people gathered and pray ed for rain and it rained before they could get home.
 Now, I have given these scrip ture quotations chiefly without comment. And if these scrip lures are not true how are we to know what scriptures are true? That God has sent rain in answer to prayer there can be no doubt. And we are told that God is the same yesterday, today and forever more; that lie changes not. Then if He is the same forever that He has been in the past and He has sent rain in answer to prayer, will He not do so again if indeed He chang es not.
 Besides the great preacher Christ-in the sermon on the Mount, said, "He sendeth the rain upon the just and the un- inst" See Leviticus, 29-5-4. Let the reader of these lines get his or her Bible and study this subject a little more thor o,,nb1v r am sure it will be worth while, and besides, it may do you good.

Will Prayer Bring Rain2

i''S 1C1uSSu lO call q day for prayer for rain, saving that prayer will not bring rain, Of course, this is only the gov ernor's opinion. And while he may be very wise man, and for all l know, a good man, but I think for all of his wisdom he is wrong on this point. I believe that if he had familiarized him. self a little more thoroughly with his bible he would not have made this statement. am a. ware of the fact that there is an idea extant in the world which >claims that God in the beginning fixed everything and that He now, through His Providence. has nothing whatever to do with the rain or the weather That it rains, halls and blows merriIy as a result of certain fixed and es- tablished laws of nature.
 Governor Hodges seems to be of this persuasion. But the Bi- ible is our only source of infal- Elible and ultimate authority on this subject.
 Does God have anything to do with the rain, and will he send it upon the people in answer to [ prayer? Let us turn to the Bible and see.
 In Deuteronomy, il :16-17, we read, 'Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and turn aside and serve other | gods and worship them and then the ] ord's wrath be kindled a. gainst you and He shut up the heavens that there be no rain and that the land yield not her fruit, and lest ye perish quickly from off the good land which the Lord giveth you."
 The Lord threatens here to withhold the rain as a judg- ment upon the people for sin. Deuteronomy, 28 23-24-"A And the heaven that is over thy head shall be brass and the earth that is under thee shall be iron. The Lord shall make the rain of pow der and dust; from the heaven shall it come down upon thee until thou be destroyed"
 Kings, 8:35-36-"When heay- en is shut up and there is no rain because they have sinned a. gainst Thee. If they pray to- ward this place and confess Thy name and turn from sin when Thou afflicted them. Then hear Thou in heaven and forgive the sin of Thy servants and of Thy people Israel, that Thou teach them the good way wherein they should walk and give rain upon the land which Thou hast given to thy people for an inherit ance."
 II Chronicles, 7:12-14-"The Lord appeared to Solomon by night and said, I have heard thy prayer. If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or 1t l command the locust to devour the land, or if 1 send pestilence among the people. If my people which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and turn from their wicked ways then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and will heal their land."
 Jeremiah 8: Thou hast polluted the land with thy whoredoms and with thy wicked ness, therefore the showers have been withholden and there hath been no latter rain" Amos 4:6-8-"Yet have you [ not returned unto Me, saith the Lord and also I have withholden +bo Y.oip fronn VO1I when there

Heard Injunctional Order.
A case was heard before Judge ButtI
Monday involving q temporary in5unc-
tional order granted BY Judge Coffey
to restraia the Midland Railroad Co.
from crossing section 1-141-62 and
section 3e-142-62 in this county, the
property Of Anton Fried Of Wimble-
don. Judge Coney being disquali-
lied TO hear the case, Judge Burr was
requested to act and he being unable
Fto come. .Judge Bsttz Of Minsewaukon
presided. The Temporary Injunction
was ret aside. The matter grew out
|of the right Of way proceedings, in
which right Of way was secured by q
committee consisting Of Messrs. Fried.
stroud and Clendenine of Wimble-
don. who undertook to secure the
right Of way for the Midland road
from the N. P. Main line. north east
to Wimbledon, Mr.. Fried acting as
trustee for the committee. Right Of
way options and contracts for the
building Of the road expire Nov. lot.
It developed ct the hearing that the
right Of way was secured BY the com-
pany with the exception Of portion
across section 1-141-62, which was
left open pending the location Of the
townsite. The company built the
grade across the land during the sum

MHlAND SURVEY
FROM WIMBLEDON
DIRECT LINE TO ANETA, NORTH
WOOD AND GRAND
FORKS.

-sive and new territory win soon be
opened to Grand Forks distributors,
If the new line now being surveyed
by the Midland Continental railroad
company of this state is put in The
new road would cover territory which
has formerly been in direct connec-
tion with Fargo, and it would furnish
a shorter and more direct line to
Northwood, .Aneta, Wimbledon and
Jamestown from this city.
The Midland Continental raoilroad
ARE now generating trains from Edge
ley, N. d., to Wimbledon, where they
connect with the Sault Ste. Marie
railroad. The headquarters of the
railroad lis at Jamestown, to which
place they first began operations.
About the 18th of this month sur
veying party of nine men left Aneta
and have since worked to Northwood
to which place they have run pre-
liminary survey. A line had been
marked off some time ago from Win
hledon to .Aneta.
Surveyor in City.
Lee Baker, who is in charge of the
gang, visited with friends
In this city over Sunday. He is for
mer Grand Eorks resident and at one
time attended the state university.
Concerning the SURVEY he stated yes
terday that it would be brought direct
to Grand Forks from Northwood,
probably by the way of Thompson and
Merrifeld. While options have not
been secured on all of the land pass
ed over, it lis understood that the
company is figuring on doing SO in the
very near future.
While NO statement has been made
by officials of the company, it is re-
ported that they expect to push the
work as rapidly as possible, and II
conditions are found to be favorable,
construction wnEk on the new line
will be started within 4 year.
The Midland Continental connects
with the Chteaso, Milwaukee & st.
Paul railroad At Rteeley. and would
give Grand Fpnxs q direct connection:
with this line. Last year there was
some talk of the Milmaukee building
a line from Fargo to Grand Forks,
but If this line would go through the
Abher plan would puUa1ahly be aban-
doned, in the opinion Of men in a po-
sition to know.
The Grand Forks Commercial club
officers know very little OF the Mid
land survey, and have not been con-
suited lately by officers Of the COM
pany, though Secretary Graves met
with some of the onicials Of the road
over month ago.
The proposed line would be the
only railroad in eastern North Dakota
running IN northeasterly direction,
and would cut down the mileage to.
points in the southwestern part sf the
STATE, as we'll as connecting Grand
Forks with = number of towns that
have had to te reached in ronDd-
about manner.
