Mr. Adams is also known as Vincent Harper, the latter being his pen name. The ad dress was the usual radical discussion of socialistic principles and Included the cus tomary arraignment of the press of the country, from a socialistic standpoint, as an agency dominated by capitalistic classes and subversive of their Interests. The press of the country was credited with having a gigantic power in shaping; influences and the speaker confessed that the present-day practices and commercial customs Justified and warranted the poll, cies pursued by the publisher. "The press Is not plastic to our uses, as Social ists," the speaker asserted, '"but Is abso lutely prostituted to a distortion and sup pression of everything that Is intended" to enlighten people regarding socialism." Recognizing the power of the press for disseminating general information and generating public opinion, the speaker de clared that it is Imperative that the So cialists, in keeping with their growth, establish a publication and maintain the same as a vehicle through which to in terpret their position. In the course of his remarks, the speaker commended the impartial editorial policy of The Ore- gonlan. Comrade Adams was preceded by S. J. Brown, an attorney of Seattle, and one of the associate editors of the Socialist paper that will b established in that city.

At the conclusion of the ad dresses a number of subscriptions to the stock in the publishing company were re ceived. Mr. Adams is counted among the most eloquent and effective speakers who has addressed the Socialists of this city. The meeting was presided over by W. J. Tar row of this city.
