a uaity and proHperous New Year to
all, it) the Courier-Herald's greeting to
its three thousand readers.
Tun cost of a given amount of food in
the United States has increased 30 per

"Deen's Index."
A combine ia being formed by the
Kothschild's among the tobacco growers
of the Philippine Inlands, with a capital
of between 6 000,000 and 7,000,000.
BuniNQ 1809, 1890, and one-half of
1901, the Standard Oil Company de
clared $1 13,000,000 of dividends on its
apital of $100,000,000, ofjwhich $90,000,
O)0 ia water: a profit of over 1100 per
cent on the original capital.
Tub thiug called "politics," says the
Philadelphia Textile Record, represents,
n fact, conten tion between different
policies or linea of action upon the part
if the government. One party demands
iu curtain policy; the other party de
mouncei that policy and clamors for an
oppoMilu poluy. There uremen in this
country , who want tariff protection, and
there are wen who hate tariff protection .
Nopower that can he exerted can for-
Li i these two sals of persons from striv
ing to have their wishes fulfilled by act
of congress. The protectionists may all
ir!0 to take the tariff out of politics,
but if the free-traders resolve to keep it in
j))Uiic8, it will assuredly stay in. Fur
thermore, suppose all lutndi should con
ent to take from politics the questions
of tariff and currency and foreign policy
and other matters uron which public
opinion is divided, what would be left to
discuss or to net upon? Politics would
becoino nothing more than a wild, des
perate scramble for oflico, and nobody
.but (ho professional politicians who
want the ollices would care to lake the
trouble to go to tho polls and vote; but
no good reason can be i xagined why, if
the tariff ho taken out of politics, nil the
other disputed questions should remain
in.
DEMOCRACY.
"Tun domocratio p irty for years has
been seeking to overcome tendencies in
tfowrmuiMit which i, knew to bu breed
ing iMiarehy. It has recognized the peril
to our institutions involved in building
up u monstrous labile of class privilege.
It has lu.ovu Ihiit iu'sjwing the wind of
clap i favors wo were bound sooner or
l iter to reap tho whirlwind of class ha
tred, A id it h is Hiughtiii an orderly
way by invoking the spirit of civic vir
tue to cheek the restless progress of
class selllshness and cl.ns greed as ex
emplified in shameless laws which
brought want and sorrow into thousands
of ho. nes and bitterness and revolt into
tens of thousands of hearts. Sup
pose wo should reorganize the demo
cratic party, abandon fie lighten trusts
and imp.T.ilisni ali along tin lines as the
Memphis Herald wishes us, and sue
ress should crown this party perfidy,
what good would it do, what reform
would bo accomplished ? Wh.it progress
would bo made hi the namu of human
ity and justice? We can see how a few
thous'ind office-seekers would bo bone
llted, but what good would this accom
plish for tho 0,000,001) voters who be
lieve in the principles and policies of
deniocmcys. There would ho no change
rind the democratit' administration could
iiot ho distinguished from the republi
can administration. The same nbiiies ,
would continue, while true democrats
would find little to admire in a demo
ciatX president who believes iu repub
lican principle.. We have one republi
can party in ' this country, is that not
enough? tiod help us! We don't need:
YO.
j:OMAS CA THOUVSJS VEHMANY. j
During the las', third of a century, a 1
social change, or rather progress, has
taken place among the Catholics of Ger
many, no less momentous than the phe
nomenal growth of socialism among the
non-Catholics of the empire. It is prob
ably correct to say that the former,
though confined to a minority of the
population, nearly 20,000,000 is in direct
antagonism to the latter, whose doctri
nal tenets are the teachings of Karl
Maix formulated in "Das Kapital."
At the general assembly held at Es
sen 31 years ago, it was announced that
the associations formed under the in
spiration and guidance of the Roman
Catholic church numbered 100,000
master workmen, 80,000 journeyman,30,-
000 priestsand 15,000 small farmers. In
1874 the Catholic newspapers in Ger
many numbered 253. The associations
have since 1870 been constantly growing,
but data are not at hand showing what
magnitude this religio-socialistic move
ment, under the direction of an inde
fatigable, zealous priesthood, has
reached. It is specifically a growth of
the democratic spirit under the direction
of Rome. Leo XIII takes a deep and
abiding interest in the welfare of his
flock of oyer 200,000,000, scattered the
world over.
Protestants may declare that this
Catholic movement in Germany is
dang, roua to the civil and religions lib
erty of the Germany of the future. Of
course, Catholics claim the contrary.
But are they not wise in standing
together? Moreover, to bring the ques
tion home, are the Protestant churches
of the United States making strenuous
efforts, unitedly, to aid and advise the
industrial millions and the oppressed?
The field is ripe, but where are the cleri
cal harvesters? This is not said in a
captious spirit, but in order to direct
attention to the great ta6k before our
clergymen of all denominations and to
the great need of it. The kingdom of
heaven is in the human heart; the
clergyman can plant it there by being a
shepherd of the people in all its ingo
ings and outgoings. But, perhaps re
marks the hypercritical man of the
world, it's dollars, cent, per cent., not
the welfare of one's neighbor, that is
the goal of my endeavor.
FA VOIiS
AN INDEPENDENT
MOVEMENT.
There are many abuses in our county
and Btate governments which it is the
desire of all good citizens to abolish.
There is not space in the confines of
this short article to enumerate them all
nor is it necessary at this time; the
reckless disregard of nl
and of the public weal in the gitt of
-vuu extra on me county printing over
and above the necessary cost of the same
is one instance. Now "there is one way,
and only way, in which it is possible to
purify the political atmosphere and
bring about an efficient and economical
administration of county affairs in one
simile election, and tllllf in )V an a mr-
lutfly independent movement of all who
are upposeu to me present dictatorship
under which this countv hBa fallen. I
would suggest the advisability of call
iug a conference some time in January
of democrats, populists, republicans
who are opposed to the Browuell ma
chine and have the courage of their
convictions, and all others who may
care to meet with us in good faith and
with the public good in view ; tuiscon
ference to discuss and act upon the
proper method of calling an independent
convention. Let us discuss the idea of
independent action, workiug out the
details later. This would bind no one
to any new party, and when its object
was accomplialiecl.would le.tve all free to
act with whatsoever party they might
fancy, still retaining the consciousness
of a good deed well t.ono. There are
many arguments that can be brought
forward to prove that this is the most
feasible plan to pursue to bring about
a better state of affairs in this county,
hut this not the time or place for the
same, as this letter is merely a sugges
tion thrown out to invito discussion.
Let the brethren ho heard from.

K.ditor Courier-Herald :
There Bcems to bo some niistinder
e tainting as to the object and nnrmiM f
tho socialist party just organized in this
CULIIILV.
A great many iuo myself believe the
time lias come for us to vote lor tho
principles that.we believe, offer the only
solution of Hie great problems now bo
lore us.
The principles of
only advocated in Clackamas county or
the ftaie of Oiegon, but over tiie whole
nation ; iu fact among all the civilized
people of the globe. When our princi
pies triumph men of all nations will
shake hands aa brothers, mi, I tlu.n win
jusiice reign supreme.
ino great bail o from now ,m is h.
tween private camtalis 111 llltll Ulti'tU llDI.L
llirougii capitalism the wealth of the
many accumulates into the hands of the
Ijw. The capitalist himself produces
nothing, though lie receives nearly all
that is produced, allowing the real pro
ducer merely enough for ins existence.
Socialism advocates and demands the
public ownership of all the means of
production and distribution. Under
socialism, the toiler would receive the
full share of his labor.
Believing iu the principles of social
ism, it becomes our duty to vote for the
men who believe in and who advocate
our principles. Loth old parties are
controlled by private I'.ipimtism, fieuce
vaimu. expect to secure public owner
ship frro.n them; so no true socialist
should take an active part iu tlu.ir
ranks.
In order to secure socialism, we must
Hit into power the parly representing
it. S-ucli a party u the socialist party.
Our party lias already a national and
suto organization, If a party would at
jam power and enact its principles into
law, it ought to l.avo an organization iu
every state, county and precinct. By
organizing the socialist party iu this
"I did not sleep a
night for seven long
weeks."
That prolonged period of sleepless
ness is most expressive of the pain and
suffering caused by womanly diseases.
It is pleasant to con
trast the medical in
efficiency which said
"I could not be
cured" with the
prompt and perman
ent cure effected by
the use of Doctor
Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. This
great medicine for
women establishes
regularity, dries en
feebling drains, heals
inflammation and ul
ceration and cures
female weakness.
"I take grot pltawre
in recommending Xr.
Pierce' ruediciuea to
other suffering women,"
writes Mrs. Mary Adams,
of Grassycreek, Ashe
Co., N. C. "I had in
ternal trouble very badly
until it resulted in ulcers
of the uterus. I was
troubled with it so that
I did not sleep a night
for seven long weeks.
The doctors said I could
not be cured, but I com
menced taking Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
and ' Pleasant Pellets.' After taking two bottles
I could sleep all night, and after taking six
bottles of ' Favorite Prescription 1 and two of
'Golden Medical Discovery ' and three vials of
1 Pleasant Pellets' my case was cured. I had
told my husband that I would have to die, as it
seemea I could not live. He told me to put faith
in Dr. Pierce's medicines, for it had Cured others
and would cur me. Bo it did. and I thank God
and your medicine for saving my life."
Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical
Adviser, 1008 large pages, is sent free on
receipt of stamps to pay expense of
mailing only. Send 31 one-cent stamps
for the book in cloth binding, or only 21
stamps for the paper covered volume.
Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
county, we Bimply performed the duty
we owe 10 we party that is to save
this nation from the thralldom of mo
nopoly. We organized so we can go to
the polls and vote for the principles we
advocate.
The socialist party is making rapid
progress. Capitalists are becoming
alarmed at the progress socialism is
making. They are trying to retard its
growth by suppressing socialist papers.
Any cause that monopoly tries to sup-
Eress is deserving of careful attention
y those whose interests are not identi
cal with those of monopoly.
Socialism is near at hand. It is in
the line of progress. The capitalists, by
suppressing all the socialist capers in
the land, could not prevent the great
wave of socialism that will sweep over
this nation within the next few years to
come. Right will triumph, though un
righteousness may for a time prevent it.
All the great reforms the world ever se
cured, were at first opposed by those
who had not the interests of the
people at heart So is socialism op
posed by those who care not for the in
terests of the great struggling masses.
We invite all those regardless of party
who are interested in the uplifting of
humanity, to study tho principles of so
cialism. Socialism requires a great deal
of thought and study to understand it
thoroughly. It is always a good plan
to study the principles that the repre
sentatives of the "trusts" forbid yon,
and to read the papers that the capital
ists try to suppress.
Socialist speakers will speak in the
different parts of the county, and I hope
all will try and attend their meetings
when they come. Be not afraid of new
ideas. Keep in Btep with progress.
Welcome every new idea by giving it
careful thought and ptudy. Socialists
do not ask you to think as they do ; they
only ask you to study their principles.
We believe our plan to be better than
the one we now have. We only ask you
to investigate. Investigate, for investi
gation leads to enlightenment.
The socialist party is a party of prin
ciple. Their KOal is a co-operative com
monwealth. The socialist party is hu
manity party, it wilt remain in the
political field until manhood's cause is
won j until the last phase of private
capitalism has ebbed away.
