4 FIELD FOR HORK,

Rev. DIR. Worden of Princeton N. j., is
the Sunday school secretary of the Presby-
terian church of the United States. In an
school extension, DR.. Worden dweIt upon
the danger of illiteracy, instancing the
fact that there are million or more of
voters in this country who cannot read
their ballots. In Timothy Dwight's day,
which covered the period from his en-
trance upon the ministry in 1777, to 1917,
when he ceased from his labors.) said DR..
Worden, there was but one Christian in fif-
teen of the population. Now there is one in
every five of the population. In the
United States there are $4,000 Sunday
schools, and ten million church members,
but of this vast membership only three
millions engage in Sunday school work.
There are over fifteen millions of the
school age; and yet there are only five
millions in the Sabbath schools. DR..
Worden spoke of the restored and greatly
increased fraternal feeling between the
north and south, and also noted the perils
of illiteracy, which are not confined to any
nationality, the vlciousness of Mormon
ism, intemperance, infdelity and vice.
The hope of the future of America is in
the growth of the Christian inst1tut ons
of the land. Christianity and patriotism
are one and inseparable. We need COM
pulsory education. The circulation of
the Bible and the teaching of its truth
will meet and destroy the threatening
evil. In these statistical facts and the de-
ductions from them there is food for
thought. The propositions advanced can
not be gainsaid. The lethargy of two
thirds of he professed Christians shows
how great the need of quickening grace,
and yet it is seen that great progress
has been attained since the days of good,
old Chaplain Dwight when he ministered
to the heroes of the Revolutionary army.
There is indeed great field for work.

"NOTHING TO NOBODY


John Sherman was asked now much
money he would put in the Foster-Fora-
ker campaign in Ohio. "What give is
nothing to nobody" said Honest John.
Since the check Sherman gave to col

what he has given has been nothing to

John is thrifty. He has got rich out of
politics. He gets all he can and keeps it.
Besides he don't like Foster. He had am
pie evidence of his treachery to him at
Chicago, at the time, and he has had his
attention freshly called to the subject. In
January 1881, Foster came so near getting
into the United States senate as Garfeld's
successor that it made his head swim and
his heart go pit-a-pat. But Sherman was
his Nemesis. He demanded the senator
ship of Garfield as reprisal, in some meas
ure, for certain things that happened at
Chicago. Garfield wiped out Fosters
senatorial chances, as with sponge, and
an ugly chasm was bridged-but merely
bridged. While John Sherman lives G.
Foster will not go to the senate. What
money Sherman gives is nothing to no.

New YORK, Aug. 16.--A bill of complaint

against the Oregon Railway and Naviga-

a description of the stock operations by
which Willard and friends acquired control
of the Oregon Steamship company and
formed the Oregon Railroad and Naviga-
ton company. The complaint then prays
for an accounting and injunction restrain
ing defendants from selling, transferring
or disposing of any rights or properties of

PUT ON THE MUZZLE.

The Republican press with partizan
fear and trembling are baYing on the
track of Judge Hoadly the Democratic
candidate for Governor of Ohio. A black
Friday stampede in Wall street is thistle
down beside the panic these tremulous
people are in. But all the organs are not
purblind. The Washington Gazette ladies
out few stern facts that in the hoot and
cry after Hoodly the panicky fellows have
overlooked. That sentinel on the watch
tower says that it must be clear to every
Republican of sense that unless Sherman
and Foster are muzzled and kept out of
sight during the remainder of the cam
paign in Ohio, that state will go Demo
cratic. The Republicans of Ohio have
satisfied themselves with regard to John
Sherman and Charles Foster and they
don't want any more of either. Neither
could be elected to any Office of conse-
quence, national or state, by Ohio votes.
Both know this and will deal exclusively
with the legislature hereafter. It would
seem, of necessity, to follow that men who
do not command the confidence of their
state are the wrong kind of advocates to
put in the field in the Important cam
paign now in progress" There has been

And | warm to you cnum as 1 think of this
I'VE have drank from the same canteen -

The rich and the great NAV sit down to dine
In gllded saloons with trappings so fine,
Anu pledge to each other In sparkling wine
From goblets of crystal shine.
Yet while their mirth and pleasures abound,
While "Mumm'' and "Heidsick'' are passed
around,
Yhey lack the regard that you and 1 found
As we drank from the sold canteen.'' -
We have shared our blankets and rations to-
gether,
Camped in the wood, on mountain and
neither,
Marched and fought in all sorts of weather,
And hungry and full have been:
Had days of battle and days of rest:
SY camp fire at night had our songs and lest,
But the memory cling to-, and love the best,
Is-"we've drank from the same canteen ~
And when wounded lay on the outer slope
VI the battle field, with my fate to cope,
My blood flowing fast, with but little hope
Upon which my faint spirit could lean.
Al! then remember you crawled to nv side.
And bleeding so fast it seemed both must have
died,
But with 'kerchief aud rags, we staunched the
tide,
Then drank from the sold canteen.''
Gods providence here unto us was revealed,
We rallied, and in time our wounds were
healed,
And trials like these our friendship sealed
Let us keep the memory green.
Of those terrible times of the past ''that tried
Mems souls,'' while we look back with pride
When we fought for the "Union' side by side,
And drank from the same canteen."
The harvest time and the extreme late
ness of holding the encampment inter

ingratitude

MANS ingratitude to man has
had no more vivid illustration
of late, than in the course pursued
toward VIM. E. Chandler since his
political downfall. Before his days of ad-
versity he was good enough to steal the
Presidency, and was praised and honored
as pure patriot. But now, in the Ian
guage of the Philadelphia Press, he is a
"retired boss" and the sooner he takes
himself 'to the rear in company with
Conkling and Blaine and other statesmen
who have found it impossible to keep up
with the progressive and patriotic element
of the Republican party, the better it is like
ly to be for him." This is the style of the
truly good Republicans. The more dirty
work man does the harder he is kicked.
Chandler has done enough of that kind of
work to be .Canonized as Republican
Saint, instead of being treated in this
beastly manner.
