McCredlo's protest did not bring
up tho question as to whothor or not
tho runner nt second ou tho disputed
decision was snfo. It stated that Urn
plro Tomnn had rovorsod his deci

tho play of tho gamo nt tho time, ns
did Umplro Van Hnltron's reversed

why a "rovorsod decision" should bo

NEW YORK, Oct. 24. Theodore

EUGENE If. DEBS
SPEAKS TO A
L
Parade of Local Socialists Greets
Their Great Leader and Conduct
Him to Natatorium Splendid
Speech Is Made by Orator.
Eugene V. Debs, socialist orator
and lender, spoke to an audience
that completely filled Natatorium
auditorium Sunday afternoon. Mr.
Debs was welcomed at the depot by
a parade of local socialists, bonded
by the baud, and escorted to the hall.
Mr. Debs is an eloquent speaker.
Ho outliued the aims, objects and
aspirations of socialism, in a man
ner that won the sympathy and ap
plause of his hearers. He ascribed
all tho ills that afflict socioty as due
to capitalism, whoso fruit, he as
serted, were hundreds of thousands
of tramps, jails filled with prisoners
and criminnls. asylums crowded with
tho insane, 110,000 divorces a year,
hunger, want and poverty, as well as
fabulous wealth and degenerate
heirs.
Mr. Debs made an eloquent plea
for woman's equality with man, de
nounced prohibition as a futile ef
fort to cure an effect instead of u
cause. The cure, ho said, lay in re
moving tho profit from the liquor
business, but it was not advanced
a remedy, lest the oxtunplo bo fol
lowed in othor linos.
Mr. Debs stated that business of
all kinds was becoming organized
and consolidated. That co-operation
ovorywhoro was supplanting compe
tition, nnd that when it becamo thor
oughly organized tho state would
take possession and employ com
missions of experts to suporviso op
oration, just as tho trusts did, and
tho needless profits pocketed by
plutocracy would bo distributed
among tho creators tho producers.
Ho stated that both tho democratic
and republican parties wcro alike,
both rotten, and their usefulness, ex
cept as sorvnnts of plutocracy, past,
llo paid his rospocts to oRosovelt
and quoted promiuont republicans
and democrats in thoir opinion o(
each other, to confirm his view.
Capitalism, ho assorted, is tutor,
ing to its fall. Civiligation, in itt
ovolution, is bringing on socialism,
which is as sum as tho rising sun,
