Smallest Prices SOCIALIST LECTURE The opera house was filled last evening to hear Mr. Thomas McGrady on Social ism. His coming was well advertised ai.d everyone in the large audience expected to hear Socialism eloquently and logically expounded, and they certainly were not disappointed. Mr. McGrady presented the subject in its general objects from a higher plane than heretofore advanced in this city. He realized that the present is the stage of education and the actual workings of practical Socialism is yet in the future. Socialism pr poses a revolution in our present industrial and social system, eliminating destructive competition. Its ideals are high, not anarchistic as under stood by many, bjt while growing it will be many years before it will be accepted. However along certain lines it will attract sufficient attention to cause ti e adaption of certain features of their demands. NEW JEWELRY STORE O. M.
