may call it interest or he may call 1t
profit, it matters not. Before l pass from
that point l wish to tell you that since
the highly developed state of machinery
today labor has been multiplied a hun-
dred fold and more, and you today on the
average through the United States re-
ceived about fourteen and one-half per
cent of all the wealth that you create;
that is the part that goes to labor. To go
back to the small dealer and manufac-
turer, we find them growing larger, and
finally they develop into what is known
as a company. Then people began to in
vest their money and commenced to
draw profit, rent and interest, and 1t
grew until today you have the indus
tries of the Nation almost soliditied into
one. In this particular locality there
may be some feelings against the trusts;
but regardless of all that, the truth must
be spoken and men who think today
along the socialistic ines know very well
that the trust is nothing more or less
than the outgrOWth or natural evolution
of the industries. You might as we'll at
tempt to beat back the incoming capital
istic class that overthrow Feudalism as
to beat back the trust. Now that we
! have the trust, what do you propose to
/ do with it? The leading minds in the
United States today are somewhat divid-
ed upon this point. Those h follow the
teachings of William Jennings Bryan
seem to intimate to you, either by
direct assertion or by implication,
that the trusts can be controlled. Mean
ing no doubt, that it can be dissolved and
sent back into the component parts from
which it sprang. That reasoning is fall
%lacious; it is not true. The trust is here
to stay, and the only logical solution OF
the trust problem is for the people to
take he trust and nationalize it and
operate it for the benefit of all the peo-
V1n iEpDnt nnn1aIlSAA FNbnt ic thn nn1 "
way to deal with it.
II wish to speak briefly of some Euro
pear countries and show you what the
working classes or doing there. l pre-
sumo it may seem a little strange that
cannot call your attention to forward
movement in the United States, but it is
true that we cannOt do it. Through Vari-
Gus cause the working classes in the
United States have not soliditied as
they have in Europe. The movement OF
the working classes in Germany started
along in 1912, and the first thing they did
was to commence the education of the
working people along working class lines.
The German socialist today recognizing
distinctly Inc concisely a class struggle,
take the middle course and say that the
working class or the producer of wealth
ought to ave their legitimate share"

During the afternoon the crown went
in various directions. Thousands visited
Columbia Gardens and the hauling ca
pacity of the street railway company w
taxed to the utmost to accommodate
those who desired a lip--e fresh air and
green grass. Many others went to the
ball game and still others visited the var
ious resorts within easy reach of the
city. 1T was a glad day, and considering
h extent of the celebration the Grove
was an exceedingly we'll behaved one
However. Chief of Police Lavell allowed
a little license as to behavior, and in com
piance with his orders there were no ar
rests during the day for the milder of
lenses that are only productive of noise
in the evening and a dark brown taste
in the morning.
Immediately after the exercises at tbs
opera house the young people who had
participated in the programme sat down
to a banquet at Sherman's restaurant as
the guests of the Miners union. Thu
