THE VIRGINIA SYNOD IN RICHMOND.



The one hundred and seventeenth
annual meeting of the Synod of VIZ
ginia will begin next Thursday night,
the 26th, in the second Presbyterian
Church, Richmond. This will he the
eighth time that the old Synod has met
in the capital of Virginia. No one liv-
Ing remembers the first meeting in 1914,
right after the war of 1912. 1t must
have been in the old church down in
valley. There were four Presbyteries
then-Hanover, Lexington, Abingdon
and Winchester-and eighteen MEM
bers made the Synod. DR.. Specie
preached the opening sermon, and the
Rev. John d. Blair, pastor of Hanover
and Richmond, was the moderator.
Three years after, in 1917. the Synod
met IN Richmond, we suppose in the
old church ON lower Franklin Street.
DR.. Rice preached the sermon, and DR..
Specie was the moderator.
In 1929 the Synod came to this city
again, DR.. Matthews, of Shepherds
town, preaching tie sermon. and DIR.
William Hill, of Winchester, the mod
orator.
Then, in 1S41, the brethren came
again, with DR.. W. S. White to preside
over it.
The fifth meeting in Richmond was
in 1866, and was in the First Church,
on the Capitol Square, where the City
Hall now stands. DR.. So muel r. Hous
d. Armstrong, then in Norfolk. was
the moderator. There We're about one
hundred member on the roll. We re-
cognlze only four Of them as living to
day: Rev. M. II. Bittinger, DIR. W.
III. Ruffner, DR.. G. r. Vaughan and
DR.. E. z. Terhune. We hear that DIR.
Terhune will probably be here. 1t has
been forty-nIne years since he sat in
that Synod.
In 1869, after the war cloud had roll
ed away, the Synod came to the Second
Church, Richmond. Some of US re-
member DIR. John H. Bocoek's opening
sermon, and DIR. Richard McIlwalne in
the moderator's chair. There were
just 1919 mem bers enrolled. A number
will come back this year, but the great
er part have gone to a better meeting
In those days there were debates on
the division of the Synod, and great
men debated nobly.
Once again, in 1886, the Synod came
to Richmond, meeting in the First
Church, with the pastor, DR.. Thomas
L. Preston, as moderator. 1t was a
memorable meeting with EOS on the
roll. General r. ID. Lilley, ruling
elder of Staunton, died in the church.
The stated clerk was sent to attend
the funeral of DR.. A. FL. Hodge, of
Princeton. Arrangements were made
for the cele bration of the Synod s GEN.
tenpial two years later at New Pro-
violence.

THE PRECEDENT AND MIDWAY
CHURCH..
Midway, of wnich Roswell has co.
Olv. may j silly claim relationship t..
Mr.. Ro0seve lit helped to make hin =:
He was born of it g spirit, and that is
vastly more important than being born
of it's flesh. This church has, perhaps.
sent out more famous men and women
than any other In the country. Among
these were signers of the Declaration
of Independence, United States Sena-
tors and Representatives, officers of
high distinction. professors and chancel
Tors of gre It institutions. and others
we'll known IN the literary world: Gov
errors of states, eighty-two ministers
of the Gospel. On its roll is the name
of John E. Ward, who negotiated the
first treaty between China and any
foreign nation, and that of the CHAIR
man of the Convention that nominal
ed James Buchanan for the presidency.
Oliver w. Holmes was the son of one
of its pastors, and it contributed one
hundred and fifty barrels of rice to
help Boston at the time of Bunker Hill.
1t furnishes names for counties of the
State; was the first to lead Off in the
temperance reform: supplied the first
Methodist Bishop in the southern
church, the first Baptist missionary
from the South, and the first Presby-
terrain from the whole country south
and west of Carolina. If religion in
other communities has not brought
forth as abundant fruit. it may be be
cause it is not the same kind of religion.
This is where the strenousness comes
from-Sunbury was the last point III
Georgia to pull down it's flag to the
British.
1t is of the greatest Importance that
the public affairs of the country should
be in the hands of its moral and intel
lectual nobility, but the popular vote
never would have selected one from that
class and put him in supreme author
ity. A higher power did that.

How President Would Regulate Railroad
Rates

| do not believe in Government own
ership of anything which Can. with
propriety. be left in private hands, and
in particular | should most strenuous
ly object to Government ownership of
railroads.
But believe with equal lirmnes S
that it is out of the question for the
Government not to exercise d super
visory and regulatory right over the
railroads; for it is vital to the we'll being
of the public that they should be man
aged in a spirit Of fairness and justice
toward all the public.
We need some administrative body
with ample power to forbid CONT lna-
tion that is hurtful to tAe public aud
to prevent favoritism to one individ
ual at the expense of another.
Give to this body power to make its
findings effective to Tx a maxi.
mum rate this rate TO go into
effect at once
! wish the commission to have power
as matter of right, not as a matter
OF favor, to make full and exhaustive
investigation of the receipts and ex.
penditures of the railroad, so that any
violation or evasion of the law may be
detected.
