the Vote Somewhat

Webster, Nov. 3.-Joseph p Love,
candidate for Senator in the Fourth
Worcester District, will close his cam
paign tomorrow evening with every
prospect of being elected, although the
vote will be close. He and his friends
are satisfied their untiring work in the
district will bring about the looked-for
result by a narrow margin, as the dis
trict has hitherto been considered a
strong Republican one.
The managers of Mr. Love will post
in the various towns in the district
tomorrow a poster that will read:
Vote for Joseph P. Love for Senator,
who comes from a hustling town, in
stead of a man that comes from
town where there is only a meeting
house, town clerk and a blacksmith
shop" These cards will be posted in
conspicuous places in every town in
the district
The Webster mans campaign man
ayers are positive he will poll a heavy
vote in all of the large towns where
he is so well known. They think this
vote will overbalance the lighter vote
in the smaller farming towns.
The question that seems to be agi-
tating Webster and Dudley is who will
be the two men to represent the dis
trict in the House. In addition to Mr.
Tetrault of Southbridge there are
four local men in the race.
Can Webster elect two men to the
House? ask the voters. E. N. Bigelow
and Henry Brandes, Democrat and
respectively, are figured as
winners by many, while others think
Bfgelow and Negus will be elected
Still others figure on the heavy French
vote to elect Tetrault. Brandes feels
sure of an election.
The Social Democrats held their clos
ing rally in St. Jean Baptiste Hall,
last night, and David Goldstein of
Boston spoke. Andrew M. Walker pre-
sided. Mr.. Goldstein in part spoke as
THE capitalists are doing away with
competition and constantly Iessening
the opportunities for the working peo-
pie to earn living. Competition among
the workers is being increased. Every
new invention and every new trust
Is driving business men and drummers
into the working class. The inventions
are forcing workers out every day and
making it harder and harder for them
to earn a livelihood. Capitalists have
lessened competition among capital
lists; Socialists seek to eliminate COM
petition among workers for a chance
to earn their bread and butter"
Both the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties represent the master
class and, therefore, are opposed to the
class. They represent the
master class because they are in-favor
Of having the tools by which workers
must earn living in the hands of
few. Socialists demand the public
ownership of land, mills, mines, facto-
lies, telegraph and telephone, in short, |
all means of distributing wealth. The
,nly question which is really before the
people is whether there shall be a
for the few or a monopoly
FOR all the people. The trust is here to
stay. 1t is merely a question of
we shall have privately owned
Or publicly owned trusts. Men in
mines, shops and factories fight their
employees 1854 days in the year, and on
the 365th day, which is election day. go
to the polls and vote themselves into
the power of their masters.
THE working people can expect
nothing from either of the old parties
Of 40 labor measures introduced in the
Legislature the last session, only three
passed the House, and they do not
amount to anything"

Albany Railroad to the New York
Central, thereby depriving the state of

willing to have this matter submitted
by referendum to the people of Massa-
chusetts, but insisted upon having the
petty Boston Subway bill referred to
the voters of Boston, and used his veto
power to try to bring this about.
Josiah Quincy, as mayor of Boston.
made a present of $4,000, 900 to the Bos-
ton Terminal Company to build the
new south terminal station. Socialists
do not object to paying $3,0000OO for
the building of stataion, but, when
the city of Boston. or any other city
pays that amount the city should own
the station, instead of the company.
Gov Crane had a personal interest in
these matters. He is a director of the
Boston Trust Company which makes Il
speciality in dealing in railroad bonds,
and another member of the same board

tives.
