prohibition conventions becoming na-
to Samuel Dickie In 1892 Mr. Stew
art was his partys candidate for the
Illinois legislature from the Hyde Park
district Chicago. and was elected de-
feating republican by 500 majority.
Much might be said of his record there
but 1t Is well covered in the statement
that he has worked for the people. His
address before the chautauqua assem-
bly, was patriotic one. merging into
discussion Of the liquor question:. Mr..
Stewart is a man OF fine presence. an
eloquent speaker, making all Of his
points strong and not spelling them
with rant, tho he ist is Incorporating
In his attitude toward the liquor trae-
&c and old parties as 1t is possible for
q man to be. His logic was close, clear
and concise, while the morals taught
by the stories he told were driven home
with short, sharp sentences. He be-
lieves Thomas Je4ferson's declaration
Will sooner or later make every tyrant
tremble and free every slave the sun
shines upon. He regards the legal
lied saloon question as the biggest
moral issue before. the people Of this
country today. The business of our
government, which stands for union
and liberty, is to protect life and
property, and q moral attitude toward
this question must be determined upon.
The speaker defined the country's mis-
sion as being to prove that we can
govern ourselves righteously. and his
espousal OF womells right to vote, and
the influence at the ballot box, non
applause. As the sources OF wealth
are not primarily found in the legisla-
ture. the politician methods were ex-
posed an denounced. and political cor
ruption scored. Practical liberation OF
polygamy came under the lash, and
speedy action against 1t was urged Mr..
Stewart spoke to an apparently sym
pathetic audience, and his life seems
to bear out his declaration that the
service of humanity is the sweetest one
can give.
Rabbi Harrison's Address.
Mere curiosity to see and hear a
real, live rabbi, as he expressed it,
probably drew some few out Monday
afternoon, but It WAS a large and high
" appreciative audience that listened
to the stirring appeal, Wanted,
Man." made by Rabbi Harrison, of the
Temple Israel, ST. Louis. He, defined
every religion as the shadow of a great
man. and the qualities absolutely nec-
essary to a. true man, one who does
things in this world. as power. which is
q fountain head Of force, individuality
and moral strength. Manhood and
merit are the two pillars which it Is
hoped will soon hold UP the stronghold
Of America Glowing tributes were
paid to Helen Gould, Henry Ward
Beecher and Joseph w. Folk. the latter
prosecuting attorney against st. Louis
boodlers, in the course of the address.
Rabbi Harrison believes that religion
exists for mans sake, not Gods. and
that the purpose of the message of the
glorious Fourth Is to vindicate the gov
eminent of God. He closed with a plea
for consecrated lives and effort to the
publication of the politics Of this ma
ton.

Could be a boy again, he claims;
don't know why, because, you see,
The kids he knew would call him
names
And make fun Of him IL he'd cry,
And every new boy that he seen
He'd have to lick or get licked by
To keep from bein' treated mean.
He says that he'd be mighty glad
To give up all he has today
If ne could be a little tad
With all his troubles cleared away;
But If he thinks it's only fun
To just be ten or nine or less
And catch it for the things you've
done,
He never was a boy, guess.
The minute he was hayin' JOY
And got his turn to hit the ball,
I'll bet you, If he was boy,
His mad come to the door and call,
He'd have to hurry to the store,
Or wheel the baby's cab, and then
He wouldn't be so glad no more
That he'd become a boy again.
They'd call him skinny" too,
s'pose,
Because he's kind Of tall and slim,
And when he tore his Sunday clos
They'd thrash the stufin' out Of
him;
They'd never let him stay up late
Or ever have the things he'd want;
He'd have to eat the stuff he'd hate,
Or else, you know, he'd be a runt.
If they was any places where
He always had the greatest fun
They'd make him stay away from
there;
And almost everything he done
Would be the very thing they'd claim
Was what they didn't want MIN to;
Most every day he'd get the blame
For forty things he didn't do.
He'd have to give up ma and me
If he could be boy, you know,
And every girl he loved would be
Too old and have another beau;
But still he often says he'd like
To whoop around without a care
And be happy little tike-
guess that he would miss it there.
Pa says he'd give up all he's got
If ne could be boy today; $3.50
guess that he's forgot a lot.
Or else ne wouldn't feel that way.
II was in his place and had
As much as he has-all my own
I'd give up wishin' and be glad
To just let well enough alone.
