THE BICYCLE OUT OF FASHION.
GoWa State Rccister)

That the bicycle is no longer fash
lonab!e RAD Is made evident by the
meeting OF the League of American
Wheeimen in Milwaukee,. y few years
ago the annual meetings OF this great
organization We're attended by $4,000
enthusiastic Wheelmen from all parts
OF The country, but this year the num-
Der i'll attendance IS less than 1000. ana
most OF them are from the nearby
States. The day OF the bicycle is not
over by any means, and in fact. there
are more in use to-day than ever he
fore and the demand for them con-
tinues. but. now that the wheels have
been placed within the reach OF all
they are being put to useful purposes
BY thousands upon thousands Of labor
ing men. and the transformation in
the wheeling world has simply been
from pleasure to business. y Dcs
Nloines bicycle dealer said the other
day that in his opinion al least GOO
Des MoineS working men use a bicycle
ior business and depend upon it for
transportation to ana from their work
paying for the wheel on the instal.mcnt
plan with the money that would be
spent for street car fares. Such men
have no time or money TO spend in at
tending annual meetings of the League
OF American WhceImcn. Another sign
of the fading away OF the bicycle as q
society fad is the rapid dissolution of
the bicycle clubs of the country. Where
there were thousands of them q few
years ago, there are but scores of them
now. Des Moines had two wheel clubs
with several hundred members, but
they both went out of existence long
aSo. The wheel will always be used as
convenience and the continued de-
crease in the cost will undoubtedly re-
suit in IL large increase in the number
used. but the time when it was in the
heiGhth-nf fashion is-nver. The next
fad will be an Improvement of the bicy-

NAKED IMPERIALISM.
philadelphia Times)

The United States is now confronted
by the most momentous international,
issue OF the country. ana it must be
met with a definite policy involving
war against either the Chinese Gov
ornmcnt or the Chinese Insurgents who
have overthroWn the Government.
The country Will sustain the Prcs!-
dent in sending military and naval
forces to protect American and foreign
citizens in China if there are any left
to protect. and 10 inilict such punish
ment upon the iicndish butchers as Will
prevent the repetition of such appal-
ing savagery. The movement means
war, and the President has no moro
right to declare war than has the
humblest citizen of the nation
Former Presidents appealed TO Con-
gress for special enactment TO empower
them TO send military and naval forces
into revolutionary countries for the
protection of American lives and pro-
perty. but President Mckinley seems
10 assume that he is empowered TO de-
clare war at VIII ana dictate the policy
that the Government viii enforce at
the point of the lavonet in dealing
With China. This is imperialism In It's
most appalling nakeGncss. The Pres
ident should call q halt at once by
summoning Congress, TO declare the
policy of oar Government and to in.
struct him what he may do, and what
he may not DO. in solving this fear
fully grave problem.
