PRINCE TO DINE
At ST. LOUIS CLUB,
Early Morning Banquet to Be Fea-
ture of His Four Hours
Visit.

Prince Henry of Prussia will be break
tasted at the st. Louis Club the morning
OF his arrival in the Worlds Fair City.
March 3. No other arrangements for his
entertainment have been planned by the
civic authorities or the Ceremonials Com
mittee Of the Worlds Fair. Even the
breakfast is still matter Of informal con-
sideration. but happens to be the con-
certed thought Of Mayor Wells, President
Francis OF the Exposition Company Chair
man Spencer Of the Ceremonials Committee
ard Secretary Stevens Of the Worlds Fair
Company.
No response has been received by either
Mayor Wells or President Francis from As
sistant Secretary Hill. chairman of the
Government Committee Of Arrangements
for the Princes tour. in reply to the mu-
nicipal invitation and the protest to such
n short stay in st. Louis for the royal Wis.
itor.
But the authorities are now well informed
through press dispatches Of the itinerary
and the time allowance. They know that
four hours has been set as the limit Of
Prince Henry's sojourn here. The scope OF
his entertainment win. therefore. conform
to that length Of time.
Chairman Spencer of the Ceremonials
Committee of the Exposition said: "The
Prince will arrive here at $50 a. m, II the
train Is not late. and II Is more Ekely to
be late than ON time. In the event that 1t
arrives here according to schedule. II Is not
probable that Prince Henry will be awake
at suc, an early hour. He may not appear
before o'clock. which would leave just
two hours for the city to show him any
courtesy. The form Of his entertainment
will most likely be a breakfast at the St.
Louis Club. OF course, there will be
toasts, all necessarily short, after which
the guest and his suite will be driven
back to the depot in order that his train
might net be delayed. Details of the enter-
tainment will not be arranged until some
time during the coming mouth"

Socialist Platform.

1. Labor produces all wealth.
2. Under the present economic
and political conditions labor's share
in the wealth it creates is merely a
mean and uncertain subsistence.
8. So long as the present organiza-
ton of industry remains the capital
list class will monopolize the ma
chimes of production and will appro-
pirate through the wage system the
wealth created by the working class.
4. AS necessary consequence of
this exploitation of the laborers by
the capitalists-this exploitation of
all the property out of the hands of
the toilers into the private ownership
of the holders of capital, there is an
inevitable economic struggle between
the interests of the working class on
one hand and the interests of the
capitalist class on the other.
5. The class struggle between the
wealth makers and the wealth takers
will endure SO long as our present
system of production for profit con
tinues.
6. In this conflict between the
workers and the capitalists, labor is
disarmed on the economic side, all
the instruments of producing and dis
tributing wealth being owned and
controlled by the holders of capital.
z. There is only one weapon with
which the working class can success
fully oppose the capitalist class-and
that is the ballot.
8. This fact demands as an inev
| liable conclusion the organization in
to a political party that shall be ev
erywhere and always distinct anC
from and opposed to every politica
party not founded entirely upon the
interests of the working class. The
socialist party is organized to NEE
this demand, and is therefore the
party of the working class.
8. In conclusion we appeal to al
to study the principles of socialism
to vote with the party of their class
at all elections until they control thu
machinery of government, abolish in
/
dustrial classes in society, terminate
forever the class struggle, and inau
gurate the cooperative people for tn
purpose of making the commonwealth
based on this fundamental principle
of justice:
To every worker the full produc
of his labor.
