INGERSOLL WAS
VERY ELOQUENT
But There is No Hope For Sal
yatiOn of His Soul.
yREv. H. c. FERGUSON breaches
A Sc, mon In which He Makes References
to the Great Agnostic Family
Left without Hope or
Consolation.

The dissertation on Ingersoll deliver
ed by Rev. Ferguson,"t Calvary Pres
byterian church Sunday evening at
tracted an interesting audience of sew
eral hundred people. Four themes
from the life OF the famous agnostic
have been chosen by Rev. Ferguson,
and on successive Sunday evenings
they will be dwelt upon. Sunday night,
in part, he said:
''I expect to deliver four sermons
suggested as to their themes by the
life and death of one Of the most notori-
Gus agnostics of this century. I do not
desire in the course of these sermons to
say anything about this man, who has
gone to his death, that
would be unkind or untrue.
These remarks will be drawn
directly from the speeches or written
works while he lived and spoke to men.
Col. Ingersoll, one OF the most no.
torious agnostics OF our age, has been
called to answer for the deeds done in
the body and he died, so far as we
know without repentance, at least 1t
has not been 80 publicly stated, with
out faith and without hope 80 far as 1t
relates to what we believe and know as
christians. That God whose word he
openly denied, laughed at, scorned
with all the wit and sarcasm OF his
nature that God he has met and come
face to face with. He had many noble
qualities, kindly man we are told,
congenial and pleasant in his home.
He was man of splendid talents, a
magnificent orator, man Of genius
with marvellous imagination who
could have exceeded Talmadge
In his imaginative power II he had
used it in the right direction. He had
fine opportunities and could sway null
titudes.
When he died he left inconsolible
grief, left his family without any con-
ISOLATION. His life and his behavior
correspond with the fact that he did
not know that there was God. There
was was no Savior to whisper into the
hearts OF the grieved ones. pity that
family from the bottom OF roy heart.
There was no human heart there
which could give them word OF con-
ISOLATION in that dark hour, no word OF
prayer for to them there was no God
to whom they may pray. There was
darkness in that death chamber liken-
ed unto Egyptian darkness, nothing to
illuminate the dark hour and
raise the gloom that settled like
a pail on the darkest night. The
tongue is silent, the heart that loved
them is still and gone forever and
there is no God and there is no future
and there is no hereafter, and the
works are ended when the body is con-
sumed and gone forever more, and they
shall see him no more nor hear him
speak, experience his love no more.
That is gfBef that knows no consola-
tion, He refused to believe in the ex-
istence of God. Was there any exis-
tence for him after death, was there no
God TO meet him there. There Is no
hone for him because there was no
God, because he rejected the Bible.
In this world God has made us re-
sponsible moral agents. God gave
Ingersoll magnificent opportunities,
splendid powers, but he used his tai
ents against the .church OF Christ.

RALPH AMBLER
FOR JUDGE.
Said He Has Already Secured
COlumbiana County Vote.
TO SUCCEED JUDGE TAYLOR.
q. O. Bow Mentioned BY Attorneys to Sue
ceed Judge McCarty, Though He
Has Not Indicated
His Wishes.

Attorney Ralph Amber, it is said, is
hustling for the common pleas Judge
ship. The term of Judge Taylor ex-
pires the third Monday in April 1901,
and nominations for the Judgeship will
be held next summer. II is stated by
the friends of Mr.. Amber that Colum-
biana county is snugly slowed away in
the young attorneys vest pocket, and
among the members of the local bar
his candidacy is looked upon with
much favor.
Judge McCartys term expireswithin a
few months of the expiration OF Judge
Taylor's term and it Is broadly limited
by attorneys that many members of the
bar favor @. O. Bow as his successor.
Mr.. Bow has given no indication as to
his wishes and it Is not known that he
would accept 1t Is not known whether
Judge McCarty will be candidate for
reelection. Many of his friends insist
that he stand for reelection, while
there are others who contend that
Judge McCarty, while able and fully
competent, should nevertheless decline
to seek third term. 1t is alleged that
Judge McCarty, in his first canvass for
the judgeship firmly contended that
ten years was long enough for
man to sit on the common pleas bench
and these persons, believing that Jud ge
McCarty will stand by the principles
there alleged to have been advocated
by him, are quietly getting in few
strokes for Bow. 1t is said that Judge
Fawcett may become a candidate to
succeed Judge McOarty. 1t is believed
Judge Taylor will not be a candidate
and his friends have so declared.

10 the naval officials at Washington: II

more force against him. rather than less.

mended the increase OF the Asiatic squad

but fight II cut. and fight II out quickly,
for this reason: Aguinaldo and his self
must not be mistaken for great patriots
who are fighting for their liberties. They
must not be mentioned In the same
breath with the founders OF our own re-
public. American patriots could not have
been bribed with British gold as Aguin-
aldo was with Spanish money-hired to
leave the country ard abandon their fol-
lowers. Aguinaido was. He Is simply a
ses-seeker. His whole gang represents
only a pitiful percentage Of the Filipino
population" OF course. this Is not what
the World would have liked TO have Ad-
miral Dewey say. as 1t confirms what
the supporters OF the administration have
been saying right along. The World
therefore adds: Admiral Dewey will not
publicly admit 1t; he will not say one
word that will embarrass President Nc
Kinley. but he was not in favor of taking
the whole Philippine islands; he was In
favor OF holding Manila and Manila bay
as a naval station" The World would
probably not care to print the remarks
Admiral Dewey made when he sgG him

HOLDING FOR HIGHER PRICES.
Eastern Washington Farmers fn No
Hurry to Sell Their Wheat.

Waiia Walla Statesman.
Our farmers are In no hurry TO sell their
wheat. The last two years with attend
ing fair prices have put them on the easy
seat financially, and there is no wolf at
their doors and no past Indebtedness to
pay. They simply don't have TO sell un
less the price suits them. They have be-
come a reading, thinking class of people
as well as a farming class of ;oilers, and
are as independent as well-to-dc people
should be. They have mostly harvested
and stored their grain, and with com
rneIdable good sense they are sitting back
after a laborious spring and summers
work waiting for prices to jump TO their
suiting. But have they their grain in
sured In the various warehouses! Last
fall a large warehouse in Gsnessee. Idaho.
went up in smoke. and many bushels of
grain were consumed, a total loss to the
farmers. Only q few days ago the Salem
Touring mills were burned and about
5000 bushels of prime wheat belonging
to farmers destroyed, and not a bushei OF
1t insured While 1t Is true the farmers
should, and Is naturally compelled. 10
save every cent he can, he knows no
more than any one else when a fire will
break out. and destroy the results OF a
years toll and expenditure 1t would
seem practical business sense to insure
the wheat against fire--as practical sense
and Judgment as TO put the wheat under
shelter against the rain and storms.
