THE OHIO CAMPAIGN

1t is reported that ex Governor Camp
bell has finally consented TO subordinate
his Presidential aspirations to the demands
of his friends, and that he will accept the
gubernatorial nomination. Senator Brice,
Angel-face Tom johnson and Congressman
SoTg have volunteered TO contribute
half million dollars, provided another half
million can be obtained from other sources,
and the Ohio Democratic campaign VIII
then be placed on su bstantial, soundmoney
basis.
II is generally conceded that money is
necessary to conduct political campaigns,
but not to such an extent asto buy up the
press and sB bsiding voters in the interests OF
corporations. The country is now suffer
ing from this method OF obtaining political
power and an effort should be made to put
an end to it. Senator Brice, Tom johnson
and Congressman Sorg are good business
men. but as politicians they are not fair
representations of the people. Their in
terests, sympathies and influence are
with corporate power, and their record in
and out OF Congress has been against the
welfare of the masses.
Men who are professional spectators in
stocks, who depend upon the markets for
either loss or gain, should not be elected
TO legislative positions. 1t was through
their influence that the sugar and other
through them the antitrust law is now in
operative and an incumbrance to our
statutes. 1t would be much better that the
Republican party carry Ohio than TO allow
the Brice syndicate to control the next
election.

Rev. Mr.. LamkIn Says He SItteth
Upon the Circle of the Earth.
Rev S. Geriah Lamkins, of Salem Bap-
list Church. preached an able sermon to
his congregation yesterday morning His
text was taken from Isaiah 1T is ht
that stitch upon the circle of the earth
aud the Inhabitants thereof are as grass
hoppers''
He said in part:
''Some say that the world is governed
by fate. Some say that all thugs con-
time as they were from the beginning
We hear great deal about luck, cha ace,
etc, but, my friends, it is as true DOW as
it was In the days uf Isaiah, that God
stitch upon the circle of the earth, fore
casting aud supervising the order OF
events, preparing conditions to fore :
seen ends and adjusting means thereto.
God governs all things after the counsel OF
His own will
1.-The incidents in the history OF our
lives are not made mp OF independent
events, having no relation, one To another,
as Some people seem to think, but they con-
stitute a chain, every link Of which has
vital Connection with every other link
AID to interpret any one of these events
without considering its relation to any
other event, is to grossly ignore every
true principle of the interpretations OF both
ancient and modern times. I think that
due consideration along this line would
save the world, and especially the Chris
tian Church, great deal of trouble

ing Ones Own Environment"
Very Successful Year.

The baccalaureate sermon before the
graduating classes of Columbian University

several graduating classes were in front

corii ally wei coined the students and
friends of the institution, and said that the
present exercises were preparatory 10 the

The text selected for the discourse was
from the first chapter of Paul's epistle to
Titus, and the fifteenth verse.
THE present tendency OF the scientist, !"
DE- Han3lin said, lis to lay more stress
upon environment than heredity. The
claim is made that man cannot be other

sibiiity."
With few words specially addressed 10

There are few people 10 whom their flag

The proposed attempt TO induce Presi-
dent Cleveland to commute Taylor's sentence
to death for wife murder will meet with
general approval. There were mitigating
circumstances connected with his crime that
entifIe him to this conside ration The deed
was done under the influence Of insane
jealousy, for which there was just cause,
and had it been possible, under the law, to
have inflicted a lighter sentence he would
not now be awaiting death penalty. 1t
is reported that East Washington, where
Taylor resided, is almost unanimously in

is an intense feeling of Indignation against

It would be hard to find a woman better
fitted for an educational trnsteeship than
Mrs. Louise Reed StoweIl. She is one OF the
most scholarly, as well as one or the most
womanly of her sex, and for years has been
an earnest advocate of every movement that
had for IFS object the spread Of true educa-

the development OF our public school sys-
tenn VIII be readily seen from the following
letter. commencing The Times souvenir
edition:
Dear Sir: am delighted with the new
enterprise on the part of the Washington
Times in thus bringing the school interests
of our city before the public.
''The public school system of the District
of Columbia is far in advance Of those in
other parts OF this country. This is proven
by the systematic working of the schools,
by the competent corps Of teachers, and by
he high scholarship of the graded as well
as the high schools.

the public more information regarding our
public schools. Yours very kindly,

NEW CHURCH OF OUR SAVIOUR.
Beautiful and Solemn Services at the

Dedicationinf rOokIan nd esterday-
The interchangeable zeal of the pastor aud
congregation received a fitting reward
in the dedicatory services yesterday OF the
new Episcopal Church of Our Saviour at
Brookland.
At eleven O'Clock Rev. J t. Grove made
the opening prayer. and called down the
blessing of God on the new temple erected
in His name.
The choir, under the able leadership of
Mr. Guy Camp, rendered unusually fine
music, the offertory solo, Guide Thou,
oh, Just jehovah by Miss Sydney Small,
being particularly beautiful.
Rev James A. Buck, the venerable pastor
of the Rock Creek Church, preached the
sermon, taking for his text the second verse
of the second epistle OF st. Peter. Grace
and peace be multiplied to you, through
the knowledge OF God and of Jesus our
Saviour
The reverend sneaker said that it was
with unboHnded JOY that the pastor OF the
present church, the church that for 100
years had claimed all this section of the
country as her parishioneIs, the old church
OF Rock Creek. gave her blessing to the new
and flourishing child that had SO lately
come into being.

TO ORGANIZE AGAINST VICE.

There is, as chronicled in our news
columns this morning, plenty of reform
sentiment in Alexandria county The
fearless and unceasing attacks Of The
Times and the royal support rendered
TO its efforts by al good citizens have
had wide effect, and the day of gambler
rule is surely passing.
But there is one defect in this reform
sentiment There is too much sentiment
and too little actual aggressive reform
too little concentrated effort at securing
eTidence-too little prodding OF laggardly
officials to act on eyidence-in short, too
little actual result accomplished.
This fault indicates lack of organiza-
tion Of good people and law abiding citf-
zens Why should not, then, Alexandria
county have q federation for the arowed
purpose OF putting an end to the lawlessness
which terrorizes and defaces one OF the
fainest parts OF a noble State2
There is no lack OF organization among
the gambler aud liquor selling element
They hang together with such good effect
that their nefarious schemes and devilish
activity are more than match for the
mere unorganized indignation opposing
them.
The prayer meeting, pulpit and press,
great agencies for good as they are. cannot
Of themselves work these reforms. They
may arouse the wind and inflame the heart,
but they are indirect agencies. sentiment
creators, and must be supplemented by
investigation, prosecution, and the final
processes or American law.
The good people OF Alexandria need or
ganization. They should do as the great
cities have done In proceeding against
vice. No rural district IN this country is
so threatened with becoming a final sbid-
ing place OF the human offai swept thence
by the reform movements in great centers
of population.

Citizenship League of Alexandra County.
