The battle is on with the Philistines
IF young men live thorough christian
life they are as Samson was when in
the pride of his strength he carried
away the gates of GAIA and put whole
armies to flight with the terror of his
name. But if he gives way to the vices
and temptations of the day he is as the
Samson shorn of his locks and deprived
of his strength.
The army of Philistines which the
young men of today are called upon to
fight is composed of the Sunday violat
tors, the INDECENT street loafers, the
gambling maniacs and the hosts of
pernicious vices, the Delilahs of today,
which find their way into our cities and
penetrate even our best society.
Young men were urged to keep guard
against these enemies to his best good
and live christian life.
Following the address was short
season of prayer, after which brief
report was read by State Secretary F..
E. Anderson.

which, Which?

In communities where WageWorkers
predominant Mr. Bryan continues to
deny any intention of cheapen1ng tss
dollar. He knows and they know that
this would mean diminishing by one
half the purchasing power of wages
and reducing by one-half the value OF
all savings. assurances and loans. And
SO he pretends that free coinage Will In
crease by nearly one-half the price OF
silver and make silver dollar WORTH
truly as much as gold one.
But in the west and in farming com
munities Mr.. Bryan wakes eloquent en-
the need of a cheaper dollar to increase
the price of farm products and enable
the farmer to pay 500 of debt with $51
in silver. Leading silver advocates at
the west have repudiated Mr.. Bryan's
idea for eastern hearers only that free
coinage will increase the price of sill
yer to $1.29. They say fatty that such
dollars would be as bad as gold. What
they want is a dollar worth only 81
cents.
Which dollar does Mr. Bryan really
want? He cannot have both. Which
is to be bunkoed---ths workingman or
the farmer, the mine owner or the
debtor? Which?

The Dollar of the Constitution.

Mr.. John Fiske, in his Critical
Period In American History" describ-
ing the widening distress caused by
the "cheap money in circulation just
after the Revolution, said: 'The worst
features of this financial device is that
it not only impoverishes people but
bemuddles their brains by creating a
false and feeting show OF prosperity
In such crisis the poorest
people, those who earn their bread by
the sweat of their brows and have no
margin of accumulated capital, always
suffer the most. Above all men ii is
the laboring man who needs s3u-d
money and stable values.

ON THE WAR PATH.
wheelmen Are Still After the Railroad
Companies.

The bicycle season is coming to a
close, but lovers of the sport are at
work in an attempt to compel railroads
to carry bicycles as. common baggage.
In a few days another circular letter
will be issued by the transportation
committee of the Wisconsin division,
L. A. W., and Secretary Treasurer
Rotier. This letter will be addressed
to the public and will contain the vari-
GUS reasons why the legislature should
enact law requiring railroads to carry
bicycles as baggage without extra
charge. The first letter was addressed
to candidates for legislative seats and
was designed as a 9 teller" by which to
be determined what candidates were
favorable to the passage of the pro-
posed bill. The second letter will be
sent out along with the blank petition
for the legislature to pass the law
The various consuls and other repre-
sentatives of the L. A. W. throughout
the state will be given the petition
blanks and the circular letter with the
various arguments in favor Of the blcy-
Gle baggage law.
It is expected that by the time the
legislature meets next winter fully
100000 signatures of riders and others
will have been received. The league
is determined to make the most thor
ough canvass possible and will have its
agents working in every section of the
state to that end. A suggestion has
been made that the various consuls
appoint SUBJ consuls for their different
districts to assist in the work and it is
expected that some such action will be
taken.

William Quarles, of Milwaukee,
delivered his maiden campaign speech
Thursday evening at Bristol. Despite
the bad condition of the roads and
other disadvantages circumstances
the house was filled to the utmost with
an enthusiastic audience. Nearly LOCO
people attended. The republican club
quartette, consisting of Messrs Davis,
Cooper, Baldwin and Newman sang
Besides the quartette the Kenosha
representatives present were Senator
Timme, o. M. Petit, John Abel,
County Clerk Fl. E. Robbins, Dr.
Hyland, 81. S. Van Ingen and District
Attorney Buckmaster. Everyone pro-
nounced the address a splendid one.
Mr.. Quarles speaks this evening at
Wilmot. There was quite an interest
ing coincidence connected with the
speech at Bristol Thursday evening.
Just thirty years ago Senator Timme
accompanied Joseph Quarles, ST., acan-
didate for district attorney, on his
campaign rounds through the state
and was with him at Bristol, where he
too delivered his maiden speech. The
senator was with William Quarles
Thursday evening when he spoke fol
the first time in the same place where
his father began thirty years ago. Mr..
Timme, who is certainly competent to
Judge, said that the first address of the
son was superior to that of the father
and all who know Joseph Quarles can
appreciate the force of that remark. II
proportional prosperity follows him
William Quarles has great things to
hope for
