Despite the howl that g being made

Despite the bear stories which came
from Moline all week, it was admitted
just before the game by the Moline
coach and captain that the team was
in first class condition and that there
was nothing to mar its prospects of
winning. From all indications the
game should be a fast and furious con-
test and the winner will have to earn

Vague and Dangerous Theorfst.

While sitting in Denver, watching the
convention, we jotted down the opinion
that MI Bryans best hope for election
lay in retiring to the bottom Of the
Pacific and allowing not a single bubble
to escape. Since that time he has
talked a great deal about the best way
of regulating trusts; he has made a
special slogan of the Oklahoma patent
medicine banking plan; he the vision
airy, has claimed to be heir to the prac-
teal Roosevelt; he has been G2Spcr-
atcly involved in an encounter with
that almost invncible pOlitician: and
he has cast false aspcrsions on the in
tcgrity of the governor of New York.
Too many bubbles have escaped What
ever may be thought of the Presidents
taste, In the controversy between him
and Mr. Bryan the country Will, we
imagine. feel the difference between
vague and dangerous theory upon the
one hand ana shrewd, practical reform
upon the other: between heSitating and
yacillatins arguments and the heavy
battalions Of establishment fact.--Col.

Republicans Are Material Aid to
Christianity in the Philippines.
Bishop w. +. Oldham, head of the
Methodist Episcopal church in South
ern Asia, residing in Singapore, adj
dressed Chicago Methodist ministers
yesterday morning in the First Metho-
dist Episcopal church, Washington and
Clark streets, and made an eloquent
plea to those present to do what they
can to prevent change in the admin
istration in the Philippines. To do this,
he said it would be incumbent upon
them to stand by the party in power,
DO not subject us to demagngic ex-
periments in the Philippines" said he.
Every missionary in the islands is add
ing his plea to mine. Our missionaries
are giving their life to the work and
the wonderful progress they have made
in the last four years, during which the
membership in the Methodist church
has increased from 1000 TO 2S,OUO,
shows the beneficial effect Of the adj
ministration, as directed at present.
If the candidate of one party is the
peerless one the leader of the other
is the fearless one and we want the
fearless one. The presence of old glory
has had much to do with our success in
the Philippines, where we have made
more converts in the last four years
than we have in the entire Chinese en-
pire in tWcntyfour years

to vote for him. In all his addresses

Travelling Man Says He Has Taken
Many Such in the Last Few
Weeks.
Talk to the effect that the travelling
men. or any considerable proportion Of
them, will vote this year for Bryan is
tommyrot," declared I. X. Travis OF
Kansas City in the lobby Of the Loyal
Hotel, at Omaha. If Bryan gets 20
per cent of the commercial travellers
vote he will do a good deal better than
| expect. Practically all the men in our
line are Republicans in the first place
and believe in Republican principles.
In the second place, all of them know
full well that they will get precious few
orders if Bryan should win. This is
not so much because Mr. Bryan could
do any great harm himself, for he could
carry none of his wild schemes into
effect. but because business men are SO
afraid of him.
IF he, by any miracle, should get in
things would shut down absolutely for
a year. Everyone would be afraid OF
his neighbour would think, and think
rightly, that Brown and Smith and
Jones would be afraid. 1t is exactly
the same principle that causes runs on
a hank. Many intelligent depositors are
not afraid of the bank which has ample
resources, but they are afraid that their
fellow dcpoSitorS will be afraid and so
they hurry down to get in line.
