public notice through the unfortunate oe-
currence at the public library last Thurs-
day, which terminated in the death OF Ma
lachia Dwyer, a well-known citizen, foi-
lowing which he gave a remarkapie III

mighty preserved him from the wrath OF
one who had raised his hand to strike MN
down. Charlebois did not say 50 in 50
many words, but he left it to be inferred
that Dryers death was in the nature OF
Judgment visited upon him by the divine
hand for the sin of raising his hand
against the protested disciple of God.
Charlebois il much the same sort Of
character as Schlatter and Schraeder He
affects the same style Of attempting to
appear like the conventional pictures OF
Christ. He affects the clerical garb
wears a full beard. which is allowed to
grow in it's natural luxuriance, and as
sumes the proverbial meekness Of the Son
Of Man. Charlebois differs, however
from Schlatter and Schraeder In that he
couples political economy with his pro-
fession of healer, for he is a socialist of
the broadcast type and divides his atten-
ton between religious and political teach
ings. He also differs from his illustrtous
predecessors in the healing business In
that he makes no bones of healing for
gain, whereas they professed to be in the
world solely for the benefit of inanktnd
and pretended to accept nothing for what
they gave, though they undoubtedly
| proved very profitable to their managers.

Some of the contents of a, recent number
| Of this work will be found to be unique
| IL nothing more. The work opens with
the following philosophic introduction:
| "a true American spirit is for progress
| sion, for that leads to freedom; but the
| majority OF the people seem to be against
| IT for the reason that new revelation,
new truth, does not agree with their old
| belief, We know that at first sight truth
hurts, and sometimes 1t makes mad, but
once accepted 1t satisfies and makes free
| Ten dollars will be paid to anyone who
| can disprove what is contained in this
| pamphlet"
Then the author appends some testi-
| n1o,lials purporting to have come from
persons who have felt his touch. Some
| of these read: e. s
at seems that the days Of miracles are
! again coming to light, for here is gem

Some Of the new hcaler's philosophy
| follows, He says:
'The people would have begun to think
for themselves long ago, but there was
nothing worthy for them to think about.
"At the general scientific institute the
| poor are healed free, the blind see, the
| deaf hear. the lame walk, the sick arc
| healed, the fat are made lean, the lean
are made fat and the weak are made
| strong. Don't let it astonish you. my
frierd, for tho time Is close at hand when
everybody will be set free: free from
| sickness, poverty, fear and superstition.
"But before we can establish such d
heaven on earth we must have true
government; government which will
take care of it's people: a government
need work. Now for the government to
do that 1t must first have some property
IN its own hands, Just az 1t has the posi-
| office, or nearly so. One large store must
be established where goods will be sold
only to storekeepers at one price for
either large or small orders. SO that the
| little store will stand as much show as
the big one. As 1t Is to-day the big store
eats the little one. s
1.-THE government must also own the
railroads, 50 that every individual may
get Justice in either travelling or trans
portation, and tho profit made thereby
can be used to pay our national debt,
which Is monstrous at this time
I'VE are drifting now to socialism, and
everything must be on social plan be-
fore we can have peace on earth. AS 1t Is
to-day and has been in the past, rich
and poor have been dissatisfied, dsspond-
ent with their condition. The poor man
says, I wish I was rich, then I would be
happy, At last he gets rich; but he finds
that happiness has not come, SO he takes
to drinking; or. II that Is too slow, he
takes six-shooter or dose Of poison.
so that he may get out OF this corrupted
world as quick as possible.
"Jesus said: The truth shall make you
free Jesus was the first socialist He
gave us a true law. but too strict to suit a
selfish world. Jesus said to the rich
Sell all that which you have and diviss

not ask man % sell all that which he
has, but only to pay fee of from s12o te
$500. and work Is guaranteed to him fol

can never be taken away, and as long
as there is something to eat in the land
ha shall eat: but IL he will not work tier
he cannot have anything to eat

"Now socialism frees lis only physi-
cally, but to be free indeed as Jestis said
| we must seek the truth We must
prove all things and hold fast that which
is good. That ought to be reasonable
enough but the world never accepted
