BRYAN CLUBS MEET
AND GOOD FELLOWSHIP
BEGINS BETWEEN THEM.

Great enthusiasm was manifested by
the Southside Bryan club on Tuesday
night when the Northside Bryan club,
to the number Of 175 members paid it a
visit. The club from the North side
paraded Eighth street, headed bya brass
band and flaming torches and presented
quite a picturesque sight. Cheering was
INDUCED in all along the route. Once
at the Court house meeting was held,
presided over by President F. p Blesch.
The Northsiders were welcomed in cord
ial speeches made by Judge Isaac Cratic,
John Chloupek and others. The two
clubs joined hands last night and march
ed to the Seventh ward, where good
time was spent.
All the clubs of the city are in exceed
ingly fourishing condition, new mem
bers enrolling every day.

CUTS PENSIONS TO
GET MONEY TO PROSECUTE
PHI IpINE WAR

John w Smith, an old resident of
Terre Haute, but for ten months past
living in the Soldiers Home at Dayton,
O., came back to Terre Haute last week,
says the Gazette of that city. He will
not return to the Soldiers Home, but
will remain here.
Mr. Smith was member of the Eight
eenth Indiana infantry III the civil war
and served four years and half AL
though not wounded his health was
broken and he went to the Soldiers
Home Mr., Smith tells of a policy late
" adopted that has filled many of the
veterans living there with alarm. A
wholly arbitrary and unexplained policy
has been adopted of cutting the pensions
of the veterans. No explanation is Civ
Ell and all the veteran is given to know
is that the knife has been put into his
pension and it has been cut, and in many
cases entirely stopped
Out of 5000 veterans in the home, Mr..
DlIlltu says, III Out Ntth tilC ltllSlOIlS VI
1900 were either greatly cut or entirely
stopped, and it has filled the veterans
with CONSERVATION. Indeed his leaving
the home and coming back to Terre
Haute, Mr.. Smith says, was because he
feared that his pension of Sl2 mouth,
for defective eyesight and hearing, due
to army service, would be stopped.
He gives details of this extraordinary
action, and his story, as told by him, in
dicates that very high-handed course
has been inaugurated and one that may
well fill the veterans all over the Union
with CONSERVATION. If the pensions of
800 men out of 5000 can be cut or
stopped without hearing or examina-
ton or explanation, by the Pension de-
partment, no veterans pension is safe, in
his opinion.

REPUBLICANS WILL NOT
DEBATE WITH DEMOCRATS
ON IMPERIAL ISM.

The imperialists lack the courage of
their faith Not one of them appears
to be willing to discuss it in public with
a defender of free government.
Recently Mr.. Hanna curtly and en-
phatically declined to meet Senator Pet
tigrew in joint debate. The standing
of tho Dakotan is at least as good Us
that of the Ohio trust magnate. He is
senator of the United States and he
did not buy his seat. But Mr.. Hanna
refuses to meet him on public plat
form.
Senator Wolcott of Colorado is equal
ly reluctant to put his new faith to the
test of Il joint debate. He has been
challenged to do so by Louis r. Enrich
of Colorado, II distinguished anti-imperi-
alist, but MIR Wolcott discreetly, if dis
courteously, declined to meet Mr. Enrich.
He evidently considers discretion the
better part of valor
There is not Republican in the

ence with an opponent of that policy.

Slavery-that is the ownership of one
man or one class of men by another man
or class of men-had existed and been
accepted as a matter of course, from the
beginning.
Mr. Adams then reviewed the march
of evolution that, resisted by the South
ern states, precipitated the civil conflict.
He analyzed the causes and consequence
es and the present whole effect He re-
ferred to the parts taken in the early
days by Garrison, Webster and }. 9. Ad-
ans, and fully defined the conditions un-
der which Wisconsin took her place in

thought that so shortly preceded the war
of brothers.
The election returns OF S4S tell the
story" said the speaker. They are still
eloquent. The heart of the movement
of that year lay in Mass lnhnsetts and
Vermont. In those two states, taken
together, the party Of the lu.aro polled
in 1S4S, little over % PEI cent. Of the
aggregate vote cast. In " 'o-,in it

per cent in Illinois, less nar cent

joining state of Iowa. In the three
neighboring states Of Michigan Illinois
and Iowa, taken together, the new
movement gathered into itself II per
cent of the total voting constituency,
while in Wisconsin it counted, as | haye
said, over 26 per cent

Wisconsins State Historical building,
which has been erected in Madison at Il
cost of nearly 100000 was formally
dedicated last Friday when Chas. Fran
els Adams of Massachusetts, a descendant
of the famous John Quincy Adams made
the address. A part of it was a scholar
ly presentation OF the development of
the North west, particularly in the intel
lectual sphere of human activity. Other
portions of the address pertained to a
criticism of historical writers, also a
plea for writer of American history
who will be of the first magnitude.
Among the remarks made by Mr..
Adams follow;
In an address delivered about eight
cen years ago, before the Massachusetts
Historical society, | discussed in some
detail the modern conception of history
as compared with that which formerly
prevailed. do not row propose to re-
peat what | then said. 1t is sufficient for
my present purpose to call attention to
what we of the new school regard as the
dividing line between us and the histor
ians of the old school, the first day of
October, 1859 date of the publica-
ton of Darwin's Origin of Species, that
work which Immediately preceded the
Descent of Man, from which my text
was taken.
Formerly each episode, the speaker
said, was looked upon as complete in it
self; now the first question the historian
must put to himself relates to the proper
adjustment of his partic'-.ar theme to
the entire plan-he is shaping the frag
ment Of a vast mosaic. He continued:
Two and fifty years ago, when, in the
summer of 1S4S, Wisconsin first took
shape as a recognized political organiza-
tion-a new factor in mans development
human evolution was laboring over
two problems ms-nationality and slavery.

per cent. of its popular vote for the re
election of Lincoln. A year later the
struggle ended. Throughout the ordeal
Wisconsin never faltered.
