Pheasants n Pest

Farmers in the Milliken vicinity are
complaining OF the damage being done to
growing crops by the pheasants that have
multiplied so fast during the time they
have been protected by law that they
have become real pest
1t is said that several fields Of grain
have been almost completely ruined by
the birds digging out the seed after it
is planted and before it has sprouted.
Last winter. they were SO thick that they
fed in the chicken pens with farmers
poultry and in many cases got into the
feed bins.
A movement is on foot to present bills
to the board of county commissioners for
damage done to planted fields by the birds
and attempt to collect, as was the rule
two years ago when the county paid
farmers who fed the birds during the
heavy snow.-Eaton Herald.

pie is way better that one niger, for
they are liable to make good citizens.
There is plenty of them if they knew
just where to come Tribune reader.
Answer: The white boy is better than
the colored fellow every time. He is
better to have about the home. He
is better in every way except when
It comes down to hard work. The
white boys from the east come out
here because they have been told that
the farm hands get fifty dollars. The
negro will work for $3.50, and these
good warm days of ours is just what
his colored highness wants. No use
bringing one to the township for he
will not stay. He will run off Bring
out fifty of them in one region. and
you will have splendid farm hands.
They must get together on Sunday
and renew their friendship Farmers
tell me they cannot pay fifty dollars
for help. they will do less farming and
a poorer grade before they will pay
fifty dollars.
Having heard that the Hired Man
is Camaleight, is it SO and what is
it? Do you believe like Mr.. Canal,
that all persons who amt emersed,
are Tossed? Our friend Schenck says
he knows you ought to be Canal
eight" Answer: | have noticed that
nv old friend Schenck dotes on dub
bling me "Campbellite" but he does
not mean me any harm by it, Mr..
Campbell to whom you refer, was Il
Presbyterian minister a hundred years
ago, who decided that immersion
should be stressed as Christian bap-
tism. The Tribune has not authorized
me to decide theological questions at
three cents per line, but | am COM
PEELED to answer these question: Mr..
Campbell soon found he had great
following, A church sprang up on
what he was teaching. The immersion
idea took root and grew spontaneous
ly in every soil. He said on this dogma
you throw at me, who is a Christian
Every one that believes in his heart
that Jesus of Nazareth is the Messiah
the son Of God repents of his sins,
and obeys him in all things according
to his knowledge of his will. | cannot
make any one duty the standard of the
Christian state of character, not even
immersion in the name of the Father
OF the Son and of the Holy Spirit and
IN my heart cannot regard all that
have been sprinkled in infancy without
their knowledge and consent, as aliens
from Christ and the we'll grounded
hope of heaven"
The Christian church, made I'D OF
your "Camaleights", number l245O,-
0OG of whom 10000 are dubbed as
anti brethren, because they are op-
posed to innovations not recorded ir
the early church. There is sentiment
in the hearts of $4,000 of these mem
bers to the effect that one is on dan
erous grounds except he has been i'm
merrsed before he dies. The great
body of this church however, believes
with its discoverer, Mr.. Campbell, that
while immersion is taught in the scrip
lures, that it is not a saving ordinance
feel that that person who believes
he should be immersed and who de-
cilnes to follow his belief, i, the only
Christian on dangerous grounds.
