Governor Wilson
Delivers Sermon

TRENTON. \. j.. Oct. aS.--Goy-
ernor Wilson contributed a distinct
novelty to the campaign tonight when
he delivered a sermon to the tl1ngre-
CATION of the First Presbyterian
church OF Trenton at the exercises
attending the celebration of the two
hundredth anniversary OF the found
ing OF the church. DIR. Wilson did
not take his text from the Bible. 1t
was more OF a moralizing sermon,
and the text might have been taken
from his own campaign policy, for
the thought that he emphasized most
was:
Always be afraid OF the man who
Is Indifferent to his own success and
certain of the success of the thing
that he represents, stand out or MS
way for he has behind ham the
thoughts of the Almighty"
In his campaign speeches Governor
Wilson has iterated and reiterated
the fact that he Is not interested in
individuals: that he is not interested
in the presidential candidate OF any
party. not even In the candidate OF
his own party, but that he is fighting
for a great principle. He has often
said:
II would rather lose In a cause
that know some day will triumph
than to triumph in cause that
know must ultimately lose.
