THE MINNESOTA WORKER.
Bluffton.
THE meetings at this place, Oct. 30, 31, were of
special interest. The Lord came near by his Spirit.
An elder and deacon were elected and ordained to
their respective offices. Two were baptized and
united with the church, A Tract and Missionary
society was organized, and a librarian elected. The
ordinances were celebrated for the first time with the
church, and a collection of $2.09 for the Relief Fund
with promise of more soon, one brother will give the
proceeds of two acres of wheat as soon as it is
thrashed. All are united in perfect harmony with a
desire to work for the Lord. Our trust is in God, and
we labor on. ANDREW MEAD.

Eld. C. W. Flaiz and Eld. Fred Johnson passed
tlirough the city the first of the week on their way to
the Warren general meeting.
Bro. D. A. Deedon returned to Minneapolis yes-
terday and will continue in the canvassing work till
the Canvassers’ School begins the first of January
when he expects to attend.
In our first page article last week in the last line
of the first column the word “‘discussing’ was used
where the word discoursing should have been. This
was a mistake of the type-setter and overlooked by
the proof-reader.
A new stock of Testimonies for the church, Vols.
1,2, 3, 4, and 5, has just been received from the pub-
lishers. Also of “Gospel Workers”. You cannot af-
ford to be without a copy of these valuable works.
The price of the Testimonies has been reduced from
$1.50 to $1.00 per volume, and Gospel Worker -is also
$1.00 post-paid.
About $600 has come in during the past month on
the Gen. Relief Fund to pay on the $1,000 obligation
past due. The most of this amount was donated
Oct. 24; the day set apart for this purpose. We thank
the Lord and our dear brethren who have so nobly
come up to the help of the Lord. Next week we will
give an itemized report by the churches of the vari-
ous amounts received. So send in what you have at
once and it will appear in next weeli’s WORKER. We
expect it will nearly reach:.the $1,000 mark.
© Mr. Henry George, the great single tax advo-
cate and candidate for mayor of New York City died
last week after a brief illness of one-half hour. In
one of the last speeches he made to a vast crowd on
the day of his death he uttered the following memor-
able words which if written in the heart of every
human being would forever preclude the possibility
of persecuting any one for his religious or non-relig-
ious scruples. This principal of equal rights to all
and special favors to none, and of allowing God to
“take care of his own laws”, is the principle upon
which the fundamental law of our land is founded—
the constitution of the United States. Mr. George's
last words were;
I believe that all the needed reforms are summed up in that
philosophy—the right of every man to eat, to drink, to speak as
he sees fit, so long as he does not trench on the rights of any
other man. I believe that God the Father can take care of his
own laws-—there is no need for us to gain trouble trying to med-
die with God’s laws, to enforce them.
