erty is the right to enjoy what be-
longs to another without infringing
the rights Of others.
"rhe first principle of socialism takes
This away because it aims at the ac-
QUESTION of the rights of the individ-
ual. True equality, of course means
equality before the law and the equal
1ty of opportunity and of reward in
proportion to the value of labor. 1t
cannot mean that all men should be
equal In every sense. To maintain
that theory as well might it be said
that all mountains should be of equal
height, that all vessels be of equal
capacity, and that all metals be of
equal value and utility
"If socialism prevailed man would
not even have the right to choose his
own employment Usually the individ-
ual seeks to better himself but there
Is always inequality of ability. Take
for instance, the professor of univers-
lty and the man who lights the fires
and cleans the rooms. Both are equal.
ly good in the sight of God, but not
In the sight of men. If left to him
self his inclination will be to rush for
the place of honor.
But under socialism he would not
have this right, and so far from his
liberty being increased under socialism,
it would actually be cut off. The Soc
ialistic theory of liberty could only be
realized when all men are reduced to
the dead level of ability.
1T Is impossible for community to

the theory of value and exchange all
difficulties could be solved. Against
this his own disciples rebelled, and on
his deathbed the socialist himself ad.
mitted that his theory was false.
"The next great socialist held that
the law of wages was the basis of soc.
ialism. In the recent Socialists Con-
Sress in Germany last year it was fin
ally shown and admitted that this was
not possible.
"The socialists say that competi-
tion causes waste in trade and ruins
the poor workingman. And they at
tack this side of the question with
great zeal. But they have no argu-
ment there. Because people drink to
excess, that is no reason why wine
should be abolished. If everything
which is used excessively We're to be
abolished we would all die from want.
Because competition produces evils,
therefore socialism is right, they argue.
at cannot be shown that good can
not exist without evil.
"The contention of the socialists that
the marriage bond should be broken
by mutual consent Is also directly op.
posed to Christianity.
'"The whole basis of socialism is the
denial of the tight of private owner
ship. If socialism prevailed the world
would be in utter confusion. The lib
erty and rights of man would be re-
versed."

CATHOLIC CONVENTION ENDS.
MUCH QUALIFICATION OVER ITS
SUCCESSFUL WORK.

All Political Aspirants Dropped
Plans for Field Work Prepared.
Present Headquarters VIII Be
Cincinnati, Where Secretary
Matre Resides-Many Applications
Made for Copies of the Constitu-
ton.
Cincinnati, Dec. 12.-The American
Federation of Catholic Societies, after
a session of three days adjourned this
afternoon to meet in Chicago July Is,
1902. After the adoption last night of
officers this morning, the last day was
mostly given to the consideration of
plans for field work.
The officers elected are:
President, T. B. Minahan, Columbus,
o; vice presidents, T. j. Kaufman,
New York; Thomas H. Cannon, Chi
cago, and Daniel Duffy, Psttsville,
Pa; secretary, Anthony Matre. Gin
cinnati; treasurer, Henry j. Freis, Erie,
Pa; marshal, Christopher O'Brien,
Chicago.
Executive board, Nicholas Conner,
Iowa; Gabriel Franchere, Illinois; E.
o. Reardon, Indiana; George w. Glib
bons, Pennsylvania; P. H. MCGUIRE,
Pennsylvania M. p. Mooney, Ohio, and
M. Fabacher, Louisiana.
The convention closed amid scenes of
jollification over the completion of a
general organization of Catholic laity
which has been in progress the past
year. While distinguished prelates not
only have Endorsed, but also have CO.
operated in starting the federation
there seems to be an unwritten law
that the organization is not to be con-
nected with the hierarchy or with pol
iticS. All of the officers and members
of the committees are laymen. The
only exception is that of the spiritual
adviser.
1t is said that the changes in the
national officers was largely due to
the opposition to all having political
aspirations. Judge Thomas w. Fitz-
gerald, one of the first vice presidents,
ex- Senator John j. Coyle of Philadel-
phia, the first chairman of the Exc
cutive Board; John J. O'Rourke of
Philadelphia, the first secretary. and
other original promoters were dropped
from official positions in the fedora
ton.
The election of Anthony Matre, prin-
cipal of st. Philomena Parish School
in this city, as secretary means that
the headquarters, at least until next
July. will be in Cincinnati. President
Minahan of Columbus, and Secretary
Matre are situated only little more
than three hours ride apart and expect
to be in conference frequently.
Already there have been many APP
plications by telegraph for copies of
the new constitution and the officers
and Executive Board expect to circu-
late large numbers of them.
The convention closed amid enthu-
siastic demonstrations, all joining in
singing America"

Georgia SawmiII Association al
Triton.

Triton, Ga, Dec. 12.-The Georgia
Saw Mill Association held it's regular
monthly meeting in the parlors of Ho-
tel Sadie, Triton, yesterday. Demand
and general conditions were reported
unusually good, and many members
favored an advance in prices, but af-
ter much discussion it was proposed to
postpone a general advance until the
January meeting.
III. H. Tiff, J. l.. sEnsign and w. B.
Stillwell were appointed a committee
to attend the meeting of the Southern
Lumber Manufacturers Association, in
Memphis, Jan. Is, to present the work
done by the Georgia Association on
regulating car equipments, and to ask
its cooperation.
The most important feature of the
meeting was the resignation of Secre-
tary S. E. Wagner, rendered last
month, to take effect Jan. l. Mr.. Wag-
ner has served the association accepta-
bly, and well, and it was with great re-
luctance that his resignation was ac-
cepted. On motion of Mr.. Ensign, Mr..
Wagner was rendered a vote Of thanks
for his many years of excellent SER
vice, and the association expressed re-
greet at his leaving and wished him
success in his business career.
1t is understood Mr.. Wagner resigns
to accept a position as Southern rep
resentative of one of the best known
Michigan lumber firms. The next meet
ing will be held at Hotel Sadie, Tiff

THE FEAR OF HUMBUG
Prevents Many People From Trying
a Good Medicine.

OOO0 Meulclnes
Stomach troubles are so common and
in most cases so obstinate to cure that
people are apt to look with suspicion
on any remedy claiming to be a radi-
cal. permanent cure for dyspepsia and
indigestion. Many such pride them
selves on their acuteness in never be-
ing humbugged, especially in medi-
cines.
This fear of being humbugged can
be carried too far, so far, in fact, that
many people suffer for years with weak
digestion rather than risk little time
and money in faithfully testing the
claims made by a preparation so re-
liable and universally used as Staurt's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different In one important re-
spect from ordinary proprietary medi-
cines for the reason that they are not
a secret patent medicine. no secret is
made Of their ingredients, although
they are sold by all druggists under
protection Of trademark. but analysis
shows them to contain the natural di-
gestive ferments, pure aseptic pepsis,
the digestive acids, Golden Seal, bis
muth, hydrastis and nux. They are
not cathartic, neither do they act
powerfully on any. organ, but they cure
indigestion on the common sense plan
of digesting the food eaten thoroughly
before II has time to ferment, sour and
cause the mischief This is the only
secret Of their success.
Cathartic pill never have and never
can cure indigestion and stomach
troubles because they act entirely on
the bowels, whereas the whole trouble
is really in the stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken
nF l. he a.. L. q

half digested is poison, as II creates
gas, acidity. headaches, palpitation Of
the heart, loss Of flesh and many other
troubles which are often called by
some other name.
