Special to Ohio State journal.
LANCASTER CAMP GROUND, Aug
13.-As the s&irmish is to the genera
engagement, SO the work of last week
has simply been "feeler' to the
great battle that will be waged this
week. Today every Christian member
of this camp is hustling and making
ready for the fight that is before him.
This will be the great week of the
camp meeting, and thousands are ex-
pected at each meeting. The immense
crowd yesterday poured into the Golfers
a handsome remittance and, of course,
Brother Sites, the manager and his
subordinates are proportionally happy
at the results. The greatest interest
yet manifested was seen at the morn
ing meeting, and it is now an assured
thing that this will be the most sue
cessful weeks meeting of the associa-
ton. The weather is all that could
be asked. The sunshine is tempered
by the fresh, cool breezes, so that
almost a perfect temperature is the
result, and everybody enjoyed it too.
Everybody that heard Rev. N. H.
Lathrop at the 10 a. m. meeting at the
auditorium, pronounced it one Of the
most refreshing showers of Gospel
rainfall that we have had. They
could not decide otherwise for the
reverend was at his best, and taking
for his text the first three verses Of
the twentieth chapter Of Revelations,
he fairly stormed the ignorant and
ideas of vice and i'm
morality.
"And saw an angel come down
from heaven having the key of the
bottomless pit and great chain in his
hands, and he laid hold on the dragon,
that old serpent which is the devil
and Satan, and bound him thousand
years, and cast him into the bottom.
less pit and shut him up and set seal
upon him that he should deceive the
nations no more till the thousand
years should be fulfilled and after that
he, must be loosed little season."
This was the text that the far-seeing
preacher used in his mastery and
difficult discourse.
His theme was the mellenium and
his version of the great revelation of
St John the divine opened up new
thoughts and new studies in this old
field that will last longer than the
camp meeting Of 1895.
In talking of the improvem ent and
difference Of worship of the Romans
ard that of the Roman church of today
he said; "God bless the Catholic
church of to-day" and further said,
d believe that the time will come
when the Catholic church will wheel
into the same line with the Protest
ant churches" He strongly com
mended the action of Bishop Waiter
son in taking his manly and Christian
stand in the temperance cause and
said: ''God bless Bishop Watterson."
hearty amen came from the lips and
hearts of more than 100 ministers and
multiplied hundreds of listeners.

THE EASTERN WAR.

The war between Japan and China
is in brief conflict between civiliza-
ton and heathenism. Japan is far
ahead of her slow going rival in point
of moral and intellectual advancement,
and her commendable efforts to in
troduce civilization into the adjacent
territory of Corea have aroused the
Jealousy and resulted in the armed
opposition of China, whose acknow-
ledged vassal the king of Corea has
been for centuries. Corea has an
area about twice that of Pennsylvania
100000 people, a fertile soil and a
mild climate, and the country promises
rich development under a condition
of peace and progress. The govern
ment is now in rotten state, the peo-
pie are ground down with corrupt tax
alton and rebellions are almost con-
stant. The country owes nearly all
the trade and industry it has to the
japanese, who now propose not only
to protect their residents there but to
introduce customs of civilization.
TheJapanese Weekly Mail in June
gave series of resolutions adopted by
the advocates in Japan of a strong
Foreign policy, which briefly presents
the attitude Of the japanese govern
ment. The principal points are;
That to secure the permanent in
dependence and neutrality Corea must
be induced to introduce reforms in
the administration of her internal and
foreign affairs.
That Corea must be persuaded to
reject the interference of China in her
domestic affairs.
That Corea be persuaded to connect
her capital with Fusan and other i'm
portant ports by railways.
That Corea be induced to concede
to Japan the privileges of the coasting
trade and fishing in territorial waters.
That Corea be prevailed upon to
open few more ports for Japanese
trade.
That Corea's acquiescence be OBJ
tanned for the enlargement of the Japan
ese settlements in the open ports and,
That until such administrative re-
forms as may he recommended by
Japan shall have been carried out
portion of the troops now in Corea be
stationed either in Sui or atsome other
place.
In the war now fercely being waged
Japan is under a disadvantage in
everything except that in appliances
for warfare, in intellect and in moral
manhood her people are up to date,;-
while China still adheres to the customs
of the past. Japan's population of
100000 must stand against ten
times that number in China. Japan's
army has 10000 men and her navy
$4,000, against China's force of SOO,-
600 and 100000 militia that may easily
be multiplied by ten in case of nee
essity. There is desperate bravery on
either side. But Japan's immense ad-
vantage in her higher civilization has
already told terrifcally against these
terrible odds. All the civilized peo-
pie Of the world, except those whose
trade interests are to be benefited by
China's supremacy, must surely SYM
pathise with the more progressive
race and wish her continued success.
1t is mighty contest between light
and. darkness.
