Gods Ownership.

When the Scriptures and reason
speak of Gods ownership in us. they
use the word in no accommodated
sense. 1t means all that it can mean
in a court of law. ltmeanS that God
has right to the service of his own.
1t means that, since our possessions
are his property, they should be used
in his service-not fraction of them
but the whole. When the Lord re-
turned from the far country, to reck ..
on with his servants to whom he had
entrusted his goods, he demanded
not simply small portion of the in

The Teachers Institute held their
monthly session at Deer Park. on
Saturday, Jan. 26. Notwithstanding
the inclemency of the weather, the
attendance was good. The address
of welcome by Mr.. w. d. Hoye was
truly eloquent, and made profound
impression upon the members of the
Institute. This was responded to by
G. w. Merrill, Esq, an eX-teacher,
in a felicitouS manner, who enter
tanned the Institute with some anus
ing "reminiscences connected with his
teaching of "long ago"
The people of Deer Park entertain

the exercises and encouraged both

The cause of education received a
fresh impetus and the teachers enter

Half Fare to Washington.

For the accommodation of all who desire to
witness the Inauguration of President-elect
Harrison. the B & o r r Co. will sell excurs-
ion tickets to Washington from all points on
its lines at one fare for the round trip. Tick
cts will be sold March LIST to 4th. inclusive and
will be valid for return passage until March
It'll, inclusive. The B & is the shortest and
most direct route to Washington from all
points touched by its lines. 1t has more track
and yard room at Washington than any 9TH
er road and consequently more facilities for
the prompt movement of trains and the ex-
peditious handling of a large passenger bust
ness than any other line.
The b C. o. handled an immense passenger
traffic at the Inauguration of Cleveland with
out delay and without injury to a single pas
senger.
Its facilities have been greatly augmented
since that time and it is in position to give
more satisfactory service than any line touch
ing Washington.

Longing for and Looking Toward the
Coming Administration.

The Samoan islands have occupied
the attention Of the American people
as well as that of the English and
German Governments - the past
week, to Il degree that was little ex-
pected few months ago. It is not
too much to say that for the first time
Americans have had an intensely re-
aizing sense of the importance of
that wise achievement of Secretary
of State Everets, the making of the
treaty of 1878 with Samoa that gave
to us the most favorable terms, before
either England or Germany had
gained foot, hold and secured like
advantages. Within the past week
CangreSS and the American people
have BEEN aroused to a full sense of
the importance of maintaining our
rights in the Samoan islands and
there has been an uprising of patri-
otto sentiment that will Justify the
Executive and Legislative branches
of the Government and our naval
officers in just as energetic and decis.
i've action as the emergency may re.
quire. though that should involve a
desperate fight between American
and German ships of war. Ameri-
can blood is stirred. The popular in.
terest is centered in the New Navy.
Money for secret service is promptly
voted. The possibilities of acceler.
ating the work of construction in all
our navy yards are eagerly discussed,
The views of the incoming Admins
tration are sought.
Gen. Harrison's attitude need not
remain in doubt. He vigorously ap.
proved that clause of the Republican
platform on which he stood. which
denounced the conduct of foreign af.
fairs by the Cleveland Administra-
tiou as having been distinguished
by its inefficieucy and its cowardice."
