WHO Is RIGHT .......
GOD OR NAN ?

W. believe rh~ lime for an
luvt-tiA atlon la- com tia, all
.nings that deals directly' with
the hu nan families. especially
Wl'h then eternni Welfare and
happln' g. should tave d rigid
investl2a Ion. At the present
nma it absolutely appears tina,
each and every Scribe has his
own construction 10 put on the
race of Gods eternal truths.
For this reason we claim that
it necomes necessary for US to
investigate the verV cause It is
for TINS very fact. tbat we have
quoted bhe above article. We
shah make a few remarks of in.
vestigatiOa on the same, in order
that the writer him self may be
benefited by. it. The brother says
tia. be has pnen studying the
Biblp a xreat deal more lately,
than before, especially Genesis.

trust that this our labor will
cause Others to investigate and

The writer Of the al ticle aoove
named, refers Us to the D;ction
airy to see TheLher God is righ,
or not; that is to see whether
God created a man, and then
. fterward formed another.
This tbe dictionary denies and
so does the writer of the article
above named. They both say tina,
CREATION and FdRMATloN are
Synonymous; but We believe tnct
they are two different works.
We believe that God he's laugh,
US that they are Two dideren:
works in bis word. We Ano
that he has surely taught it
so we will have to say tha'

EHAf'HE THINKS,
Is II RIGHT?


agi -
! have been studying the Bible
little Of late, and especially
Genesis. l I
/ disagree with you that God
\ created one man in his image
Ind likeness. and this man is the
Gentle and the man that was
formed was the lsraelite.
Gen. 1-S1.
And God saw everything
that He had made, and behold it
was very good. And the even
Jug and the morning were the
e!1tl, day"
Gen. 2-13.
Thus the heavens and the
earlb was finished, and all TIE
hest OF them,
And on the seventh day God
ended His work which H.. rad
made; and He rested Cd The
seventh day from all His work
.vhich HI had made
And God blessed the Sc venth
day and sanct.fied it; because
, that in it He had rested from ali
His work which God had created
and made"
You will note that it states
that God finished al his work
which he had created ana made
in six days and rested ou the
seventh, and it was all very good,
DO you suppose God would
change his mind, being all know
ing and make evil. az that is the
meaning of the second chapter
except the first three verses,
what can understand. l, does
not state that Goo formed this
dust man, it SAYS LORD God, y
ii you will look in the dictionary
you will find What Lord God"
means.
What | understand of male
and female being created IL the
image and likeness of God is our
good thoughts ard deeds. II
We love God above everything
aud our neighbor as ourselves,
and do unto others as we would
have others do unto US, and d.
the will Of Goa as we gain un
degstapdiag we rehec' Hi~

have to put into practice as we
gain understanding or we Will
not gain the spiritua! meant, &
of the Bible, .. ...
We will take for example an
engine we see some ont else run
ming it and how easy he haudIeS
1t, we believe we could do it a.
Well il We knew a little about it.
but ii we do not put into prac
tice the, understanding we "ave

truth.
If a father is a genius of some

his sons are the sam. We say

LONG PRAIRIE
(From the Leader)

Edward Kreuger, young farmer
residing in Bruce, shot himself Satur-
day afternoon while hunting. He died
at the Long Prairie hospital last even
ing about A o'clock. He was hunting
with party of friends and had paus-
ed to rest. The exact circumstances
of the accident are not known but
from what he said and from the re-
port of those who were near at hand,
it seems that he leaned on his gun as
he rested. The gun was braced against
stump. In some way the gun slip
ped and his weight on it caused it to
strike against the stump as it slid
down toward the ground. The trig
ger struck the stump and the gun was
discharged. The charge passed
through his right arm, literally shred
ding it. The bone was smashed and
broken. A few of the shot grazed his
chest. Help was close at hand and he
was quickly brought to the Long
Prairie hospital. While it was evil
dent that the wound was serious it
was not believed that it would be
fatal. However, the wounds in the
chest proved more serious than it was
at first supposed they were. He be-
gan to fail rapidly on Monday and
yesterday morning it was known that
he could not live. He passed away
late in the afternoon. The remains
were removed to Peterson's under
taking rooms and prepared for burial
Funeral arrangements have not been
made yet, but we understand the fun
eral will be held tomorrow. The young
man was "a years old and came here
with his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Aug
ust Kruger from Hennepin county, in
1904. He is survived by his parents,
three sisters and brother.
