Ramp pive a socialist lecture, Friday night, in tin Star Theater building- to n con siderable audience, which took quite well with some while other persons present could see little or nothing in it. Socialism is just like any oth er ism, at least in wu respect, and the hearer must be atuned to it before he can see any beau ty or worth there, and while the dream, as it is some times called, is more or less Utopian, yet there is much of truth in what the speaker said and no person, who will take thought for a moment, will deny that there is some thing very radically wrong with the system, and that ii ought to be righted, but there are dif ferences of opinion as to the means of procedure. The Republican party be lieve, that is the majority of the rank and tile, that the party can bring prosperity, but ever since the .Sherman law was enacted, republican administrations hav been whacking at the trusts, while those same institutions have grown more poweiful and more numerous under such supervision. The Democratic party thinks that its system could do the trick if it only had the chance, but when it was" in power it i'ailed to hold its job be cause of the deflection of part of its members, and during their last trial hard-times over took the country and the blame was saddled upon them. Taft, before becoming presi dent, was asked: What a starv ing man out of employment could do? and replied: ''God only knows," and the question' is still unanswered. The Socialists now 'come forward and ask a trial; they point out many things that are wrong; they are becoming strong and unless the evils they decry against are coi rected, they will become stronger, but when we look the field over, carefully, we do not see anything very promising ahead this side the millenial period, but between intervenes a period of chaos, oi strife, in which man will com plete his trial to govern and bring about increased peace, sink in defeat and acknowledge his inability to rule. Socialism is the result of the people awaking to the fact that the masses are being exploited and robbed and enslaved by the exploiters and the agitation thus started. causes friction, and from the friction will come the at tendant conditions which must be passed through. "As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the end." As conditions arose under chat tel slavery, so will financial slavery, bring its toll of woe; man won't recognize the Creater and bv his own wisdom he can't bring peace. We formulate our own plans; we elect our executive oilieers and reach out to secure certain conditions and why don't we secure them ? Hecause our Con gresses are swayed by Wall street and its minions; they swerve congress and coerce government, using their means to bring, about conditions pecul iarly in their own interest and detrimental to the natiim as a whole. No party will secure universal peace and prosperity until eternal wisdom guides the ship into the tranquil haven of justice to all and recognition of the divine right of the Creator. Kither Roosevelt's popularity is not nearly so great as be sup posed or else the public aversion to a third term is stronger than he estimated, a I least that old beaver is getting some hard buffs. First' it was a kick from North Dakota, then New York, Colorado, Indiana and Iowa registered and the Colonel's presidential possibilities have lowered while Tafts chances for renomination has rieii corre spondingly. Hack to the farm has become the slogan generally heralded throughout the land, but this week the cry throughout "fan dom" is "Hack to the baseball held.
