THE SOCIAL DEMOCRACY.

People will not starve in laah of plenty" says Eugene V Debs. and the re- mark has been seized upon by the wor- shippers of the golden calf, to make the assertion that Eugene Debs is an ua- serupulous agitator, and is interfering with the gains of the trusts. The cry has gone out through the press Great is Diana of the Ephesians," and Debs must go. His wild schemes" for the samelioration ard banishment of poverty and an anarchist, and leech, all in one, and the sooner the country is rid of him. the better it will be for the Iaboring classes and for all who are out of employ ment. This is all wrong, and If employ dns will yet call another Cromwell into life, and found a commonwealth upon the ruins the republic. Debs is right, and his scheme" as 1t is called, is not Visionary. The only hope of the country is in the removal of the surplus popula- ton of the large cities to the new states and territories and the checking of im- migration to our shores until the vast foreign element in our midst is absorbed and issimilated. or returned whence they came. 3i Agriculture and manufacturing will afford them profitable employment and assure them at least a comforta ble support. It is the duty of all potriots, and of those who are able to give every encouragement to a movement of this kind and ito guide and direct it into safe channels. There is room enough for al! who are now here, and plenty of money to build homes for all who will worke.- Conecufr Record.

On Monday afternoon, Feb. %, 1897,
very appropriate exercises, commemor.
ating Washington's birthday, were
given by Miss Margaret Bevis and her
pupils at the Eight Square School. The
program consisted Of patriotic hymns,
r~ecitations and addresses. Mrs. David
Sparks gave q very interesting talk to
the children, which was appreciated
not only by them, but by the older ones
also. Quite a number of visitors wers
present, besides the trustees, teacher
and pupils OF Literary School. The in.
terest taken by tue children proves how
faithful their teacher had 5een in de-
veloping that spirit Of patriotism which
should characterize the boys and girls
Of America.
Washington's birthday anniversary
was celebrated ut Wrights School on
Friday evening of last week with exer-
cises consisting Of readings, singing
and recitations. The amusing part was
o japanese wedding in Japanese CO.'S
tune. Miss Sallie E. Ayars, the teach
er. received much praise for the labor.
and expense in getting the enturtain-
ment up and its performance under
much difficulties, because Of the crowd
of citizens present. There were more
present than could get into the School
House. 1t is said that the people in
Wrights School district think a great
deal of George Washington and would
not tell q lie any sooner than he did
when he cut down the cherry tree with
his fathers hatchet.
