J. Adam Bede, who was for eight years Republican congressman from Minnesota, and Hon. i Etnil Seidel, recently Socialist mayor of Milwaukee. Both Socialists and anti-Socialists will want to hear this debate. It has been placed on the evening program in order that everybody will be able to be there. lion. J. Adam Bede is one of the best speakers on the Chautauqua platform today. During the time that he occupied a seat in our national legislative balls he was known as “the humorist of the house.” so witty were h.-s sayings and so excellent his humor. Often when in the midst of the ordinary work of congress when there were many empty seats and general listlessness. Bede would rise to speak. Immediately the empty seats would fill and the feeling change to one of intense interest, in presidential campaigns Bede has made speaking tours on which be has been given the biggest city dates by the Republican national committee. Hon. Emil Seidel acquired his earnestness and conscientious spirit at the pattern maker’s bench. He was boru in Pennsylvania, but left with his parents for Milwaukee at the age of five. At the age of twenty-two he went abroad to perfect himself in bls trade of carving and designing. For six years he lived in Berlin, working by day and attending trade school at night. In ISM he helped to organize the Woodcarvers. He later joined the Milwauuee Association of I atteru Makers. In 18U2 his ballot was one of a total es two Socialist votes in his precinct. In 11)10 he was elected mayor of Milwaukee on the Socialist ticket and is today regarded as one ot the leading Socialists of the (jutted States.
