The Rev. DR.. Thomas, Chicago's
most famous preacher, submits these
pertinent questions, which it will be
found hard to answer Have moi the
countries Of Europe been wars OF
commerce, wars for gain? Ia not that
the real issue now in the threatened
partition of the empire? Would
England be killing the Beers il their
lands we're not rich in precious
minerals, and would we be killing the
Filipinos If their islands offered nc
hope Of gain? Our century came Ia
with the f%actional fight between the
Wings and the Tories; a fight for q
democratic instead Of an aristocratic
government; the later sectional fight
was for liberty as against slavery,
And now, is 1t a fact that the century
has gone out as it came in-with the
old fight for tie rights of the people
against the money power of the few,
Is there no possible danger OF imperial
ism in this land? Are we not l~evyins
d tariff upon Porto Rico? Are we no
spending hundreds OF millions O
dollars and sacrificing the lives o
thousand OF our soldiers, and killing
many more thousands of their peopl,
to enforce government without III,
consent of the governed" upon the far
off Philippine islands?"

Himself from Wicked Per ersecution

Columbus, Ohio. Oct. 13.-The fo.-
lowing statement was made last night
by f. n. Higgins. attorney for +. +
Wolfe, president of the Wolfe Bros
Shoe Go. of this city. and also president
of the National Shoe Co, with head
quarters in Boston:
AT is years Of age. r. F. Wolfe

Of this city. was sent To the peniten-
tiary Of another state upon the charg
of assault with intent to kill. Whe.
released he determined TO overcome tn,
cloud and came 1" Columbus, penn'-
lass. His success since is a matter oi
general knowledge.
The story of his early trouble wa
known to a few some OF whom. know
ing all the facts and circumstances
gave him. in the noblest way, the.
friendship and support. Others saw i"
his necessity a means of eXtortion and
oppression. AS Mr.. Wolfe's prospe.
ity has increased threats Of exposur
have multiplied and have at last be
come intolerable.
knowing all the facts and as Ii
attorney I have advised him To max
this statement to the public. He know
that the world exacts a further pena lty
from those it has punished. cut h
authorizes this statement that he ma
be forever a free man.
Mr. Wolfe was living at Spence"
Ind. at the time the offence was com

volved in a quarrel with a friend an,
in an encounter which followed tht

allowed by law for good behavior
The secret OF Mr.. Wolfe's early life

mate associates: to the public it is q
surprise. Mr.. Wolfe is one Of the mos /
respected citizens of Columbus and on
joys the confidence ana good Will or

nobody but the passengers who travel
in the small hours OF the morning u hen
traffic is light knows that they are
there. But they are. they like the
cabins because in winter II is warm
there and there is a chance Of finding
few stray crumbs under the seats

mystery, for f"rryboat commons must

living isn't good enough to attract
them in any uncomfortable numbers
and they don't increase very fast but
there are dozens Of them for all that.
They come aboard when the boats ar.
tied ur in their slips ana when times
are very hard they migrate by the
same route.
There are not enough Of the rats to
cause the ferry companies to employ a
rat catcher and it would b. impossi-

them. They are allowed to stay pick
