neighborhood rivalry. The church teams
have developed to a high point of efficiency
and have afforded entertainment for large
numbers for three seasons. Now the ranks
are so well filed that it is necessary to
divide the teams into two sections, and IT
is to be expected that this years contests
will be sharp and interesting.
This is wholesome competition and one
that develops the best qualities of all par
Elephants, If well managed. There should
be no faint of professionalism or semi-pro-
fessionalsm, and the rules and regulations
of the contest should be SO carefully
planned that there need be no dispute at the
close of the season, as was the case year
or two ago, as to the actual winner OF the
championship.
1t would be desirable If the winning teams

Where Are the Jansp

Two reports come today from the far
east which throw cross lights upon the
naval situation. One Is that a German
cruiser sighted a Japanese man-of-war In
the Formosa straits headed northward
with another Japanese warship In tow
badly disabled. This would Indicate that
a fight has occurred south of Formosa
between the Russian and Japanese fleets
possibly only a skirmish, the results OF
which are yet 70 be disclosed. The other
report comes from Chefoo-a suspicious
place-and IS to the effect that Admiral
Togo has concentrated his feet at Ma
sampo bay, Korea, being there on the
goth OF this month. This would indicate
that the japanese admiral plans to offer
battle only In the northern waters, pos
sibly just before the Russians are due to
reach Vladivostok.
Both reports may be true 1t may be
that Togo has withdrawn the main body
OF his ships to Korean waters and left
SUFFICIENT scouts in the China sea to ha-
rass the enemy and to keep him informed

The President at Chicago.

The President will stop in Chicago on his
way back from the hunt. He will. of
course, be Hospitality entertained. Politics
will be under the ban. Democrats and re-
publicans are to join hands In the welcome.
and this In Chicago means much. Mr..
Roosevelt both as man and party leader. is
very popular there, in business as well as
in political circles. His visits to the town
have always testified to this, and he carried
Chicago last year over Judge Parker by a
large vote.
Still, coming so soon after the city cleo
ton, whose result has been the subject of
such wide comment, this visit will command
an interest all its own; and what he may
say in response TO even the most formal
greeting will be read with care. Mayor
Dunno will be on hand and will acquit HIM
self with all propriety, but the President
Will know, as the country does, that in the
matter Of the railroad problem on its larger
lines the mayor is with him. Is he with the
mayor on the question of municipal own
ership of street railways?
Mr. Bryan as may be seen from the dis
patches is cultivating a belief that the
President is approaching a clash with the
Senate on this railroad subject. and will
need democratic help. The railroads are
represented as strongly intrenched in the
Senate. and as preparing to make stub
born stand there And so Mr.. Bryan tells
his democratic followers that they should
support the President and assist him to the
utmost in the contest. The President, he
contends. is right, and it will be patriotic
as well as good politics to help hold up his
hands.
There Is no evidence, however, that the
President has in view what Mr.. Bryan
hopes for. Government regulation of rates
IS very far from government ownership.
In fact the latter is so stupendous a prop
osition when soberly considered that, even
with the country fiusher with money than
ever before and even greater times pre-
dicted 1t could hardly carry at the polls
al the first trial. What is called a cam
patgn of educa tion will be necessary, and
the difficulty in that will be that the longer
the people think about the matter the less
likely they will be TO adopt the policy.
But Mr.. Bryan must have an issue-a
new topic-and this comes pat enough. He
will develop 1t in his own way, and If as
he goes along he can make any trouble be-
tween the President and his party it will
be an investment he can afford. He is the
prince Of American agitators.

President Bigelow.

Some men when tempted fall President
Bigelow of the First National Bank Of
Milwaukee was tempted and fell That
much Is a simple story, and need not be
dwelt upon. The weakness of humanity Is
an old theme. What of more Importance is
the apparent ease with which he executed
his dishonest acts. The sum of money he
devoted to his purposes is an enormous one.
How was 1t possible for him to get his
hands on 1t and make way with 1t? And
how long was he about it? The banking
law provides for checks and balances, and
the inspection required Is aimed at prevent
ing the very thing that this man has done
Just now we are all busy with the topic of
government supervision of railroad rates
and those who favor such a policy quote
government supervision of national banks
as warranting its adoption. OF course, very
stringent laws are sometimes evaded
despite the utmost watchfulness of the
laws officers But in case like this every
thing demands that the investigation of the
crime committed and confessed should go
to the very bottom. The danger Is In a gem
eral loss of confidence In the MANAGEMENT
of moneyed institutions, and the only rem
edy is in a study of every rascally method
that has been employed and exposed, and
the prompt application of correction.

engagement has occurred in this process.
In considering the possibilities 1T Is al
ways to be borne in mind that the Rus
sian object is to reach home port,
Vladivostok, and the Japanese object Is
to prevent this and, If possible, to destroy
the Russian naval force. 1t matters little
or nothing to Togo where and when he
strikes the Russians, as far as the effect
upon the ultimate object Is concerned.
II the two forces meet in pitched bat
tie at sea one side or the other will prob
ably be so badly whipped as to leave
either Russia or Japan practically in con-
troll of the Asiatic waters, so far as the
present war is concerned
1t is likely that Japan plans to strike
Rojestvensky on the way to- Vladvostok.
The only question is, where will Japan
have the greater advantage? In the south
China sea Russia has unquestionably en-
toyed the use of the French waters and
has profited somewhat by this use. In the
Japan sea or its approaches Russia will
have no such chance, save by direct
and deliberate violation of the neutrality
of China, which has heretofore been at
tempted with results disastrous to the
violating power, as in the case Of the
Ryshitelni. Masampo bay, near Fusan, is
at tne extreme SouthedSterH point VI Tie
Korean peninsula, about 100 miles sepa-
rating 1t from the Japanese shores. If
Admiral Togo. has taken station there.
with the greater part of his force, he
evidently expects Rojestvensky to at
tempt to reach Vladivostok by way of the
Korea straits rather than one of the
northern passages from the Pacific to the
Japan sea. But he is at the same time
close enough to the open waters to en-
able him either to swing out and inter-
cept the Russians should they go by the
northerly route, or hasten northward
through the Japan sea and meet them at
the straits which they choose for their
entrance having a shorter steaming dis
lance than they.
