As to the problem of the unem­ ployed, and it is a problem that grows larger every day, several remedies suggest themselves. Charity as a temporary relief seems necessary. And yet it is a most vicious thing to accustom people to depend upon. Even when temporary it lowers self respect and moral independence of the receiver, and is more painful to one of a manly spirit than even hun­ ger. Turning to history for an ex­ ample, we find that when u delegation o f hungry French peasants called up­ on Louis XVI for relief at Versailles the authorities, with the true Hills­ boro spirit, hung the leaders on a “ New scaffold forty feet high, and Cor. 5th Ave. left them as a shining example.” and 2nd St., That had it’s effect.

The press called him a Populist and Brady Chowning's a Socialist. He said big business owned the daily press. Roosevelt red- ommended to Congress bills to pre­ vent monopolies from robbing the people, and the daily press said he was a Bryanite, a Populist and a Socialist. He replied that the big in­ terests controlled the dailies. The Progressive party made a platform, FIRST-CLASS SERVICE promising relief, and it was charged that the whole thing from platform to red bandana was taken from the So­ Main St. cialist party,and they answered that w v .v .w . the trusts and grafters owned all our great dailies.
