TRUSTS SHOULD BE

Socialist Orator Advocates the
community OF interests to
Solve Labor Profile ms.

An audience which occupied every
seat in the new Bucher street hall lis
tened to the lectures by Mr. and Mrs
O'Eare on the industrial problem
Wednesday evening. Mr.. O'Hare's
speech met with the most enthusiastic
and demonstrative reception on the
part Of the audience, and he sustained
his reputation as one of the most eff,
fective campaigners who ever spoke in
the city.
His remarks in part were as fol-
lows: il
The problem of today, is the prob
lem of capital and labor or the trusts
and the people. When hand produc-
tion prevailed in America a century
ago, there were no economic classes
no millionaires, no unemployed men,
and the people ruled. With the de-
velopment OF the machine the worker
loses his ownership, and classes are
formed. Capitalists who own the
capital . ard machinery and
and who alone operate them with the
industries of the country owned by q
part OF the people, every improvement
becomes an injury to the rest--unem=
ployment. child labor. woman labor,
panics and foreign wars of conquest
result.
The people who own the trusts or
industries of the country. own and
govern the country. The money
power rules. In order that the pea
pie may own and rule the country they
must own the industries of the coun-
try. Then every Improvement In ma
sehinery will mean reducing the hours
fiof Tabor at the jobs instead of reduc-
Ing the number of jobs and there need
be no tramps,
The flag must fly over the : shops.
mines and factories, as well as over
schools and prison; when 1t does the
schools will be full and the prisons
empty. America will be real democ-
recy and men will be free. because no
hereditary owner will be able to stand
!. between Them and their means Of en-
4 ployment, and to appropriate the
Z product Of their labor.
This is socialism. And 1t is the oniy
solution OF labor and trust problems II
rabolisbes the conflict between labor
ana those who own the tools WITH
which labor works. by having the ma
rlt0n own the trusts and other indus
' iriea of The country!

U. S. SENATOR FROM SOUTH CAROLINA
Recommends Pe-ru-na
For Dyspepsia and Stomach Trouble.
Catarrh of the Stomach is Generally
Called Dyspepsia. Something to
Produce Artificial Digestion
is Generally Taken.
Hence, Pcpsin, Pancreatin and a liost
of Other Digestive Remedies
Has Been Invented.
These Remedies Do Not Reach the Seat
Of the Difficulty, Which is
Really Catarrh.

Tx. U. S. Senator NJ. c. Butler from
IL South Carolina, was Senator from
that state for two terms In re-
cent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co.,
from Washington, d. c., says:
"I can recommend PeruHa for dys-
pepsia and stomach trouble. have
been using your medicine for a short
period and feel very much relieved.
IL Is indeed a wonderful medicine be-
sides a good tonic. "---M. c. Butler.
The only rational way to cure dyspep-
sia is to remove the catarrh. Peruua
cures catarrh. Peruna does not produce
artificial digestion. IT. cures catarrh and
leaves the stomach to perform digestion
in a natural way. This is vastly better
and safer than resorting to artificial
methods.
Peruna has cured more cases OF dys-
pepsia than all other remedies com
bined, simply because it cures catarrh
wherever located. lfcatarrh is located
in the head. Perrna cures ii. If catar"h
has fastened itself in the throat CT
bronchial tubes. Peruna cures ii. When
catalrh becomes settled i'll the stomach,
Peruna cures it, as we'll in this location
as in any other.
Peruna is not simply a remedy for
dyspepsia. Peruna is Il catarrh remedy.
Peruna cures dyspepsia because it is
generally dependent upon catarrh.

possess a certain degree of diablerie
A few women can wear flame color
with great distinction; others merely
look insignificant and swallowed up
in such hue.
How important is this question of
color! / am thankful to see that it is
becoming better understood every sea-
son in this country. AS rule-mind,
there are eXceptions-but as a rule
glaring contrasts in color are mis-
take. Weird beauties generally look
their best in white, pale gray, and
ethereal garments of all sorts. A
more buXom form of beauty can have
her looks greatly enhanced by appro-
pirate settings; she can carry flame
color or ruby shades, costly lace and
great deal of jewelry to advantage,
whereas the ethereal type, as | have
said looks her best in pale draperies
with queer old-world orn2ments. AS
matter Of fact, the clothes of q
beautiful woman should be the en-
bodiment of her whole personality. In
this case, simple frocll may be worn
with a meaning which doubles its in
trinsic value.
Now a few words to the debutante
who watns to become the possessor of
two or three really good frocks at
moderate cost. A charming model was
in the very palest shade of pink chif-
fon over soft satin of a little deeper
tone. There was much frou-frou round
the feet, and the skirt was inserted
from the waist downwards with fine
blond lace. The bodice was prettily
pouched over swathed waistband
finished with a full berthe of kiltec
chiffon and lace. the short sleeves
showing frills of the chiffon. This
gown would look equally effective IL
point desprit.
That reminds me that another frocl
for girl was composed of white flow
cred silk net, the skirt showing gradu
ated bands of satin ribbon, and thu
baby-bodice being swathed with broad
soft satin ribbon, and finished with {
cluster of beautiful roses TIL,
sleeves were very becoming, being Ions
to the wrist, but quite transparent
and arranged to leave the arm bar,

WHALES MYSTERIOUS ENEMY.
Large Marine Creature I'm Alaskan
Waters That Waged war Up
on the LeVinthnns.

While operating fishery on Admiralty
island, southeastern Alaska, last sum-
mer, my attention and the attention of
the fishing crew were almost daily di-
rected to a large marine creature that
would appear in the main channel OF
Seymour canal and in our immediate
vicinity, writes a correspondent of For
est and Stream.
There are large numbers of whales OF
the species rorqual there, and the mon
ster seemed to be their natural enemy.
The whales generally travel in schools
of two or more, and while at the sur
face to blow one would be singled out
and attacked by the fish, and battle
royal was soon in order.
1t is the nature of the rorqual to make
three blows at intervals of from two to
three minutes each, and then sound
deep and stay beneath the surface for
| 80 or 40 minutes.
AS a whale would come to the surface,
there would appear always at the
whales right side and just about where
his head would connect with the body,
a great long tail or fin, Judged by five
fishermen and number of Indians after
seeing it about 15 times at various dis
tances," to be about "a feet long, two
and one-half feet wide at the end, and
tapering down to the water, where It,
seemed to be about 1S inches in diam"
eter, looking very much like the blade
or fan of an old-fashioned Dutch wind
mill. This great club was used on the
back of the unfortunate whale in such
manner that it was wonder to me
that every whale attacked was not in
stantly killed. Its operator seemed to
have perfect control of its movements,
and would bend it back till the end
would touch the water, forming horse
shoe loop, then with a sweep it would
be Strengthened and brought over and
down on the back of the whale with a
whack that could be heard for several
miles. If the whale was fortunate
enough to submerge lis body before the
blows came, the spray would fly for a
distance of 100 feet from the effect of
the strike, making a report as loud as a
yachts signal gun.
What seemed most remarkable to me
was that no matter which way the at
tackled whale went, or how fast (the
usual speed is about IA knots), that
great club would follow right along by
its side and deliver those tremendous
blows at intervals of about four or five
seconds. 1t would always get in from
three to five blows at each of the three
times the whale would come to the sur
face to blow The whale would gener-
ally rid itself of the enemy when it tool
its deep sound, especially if the water
was 40 fathoms or more deep.
During the day the attack was always
off shore, but at night the whales would
be attacked in the bay and within 40(
yards of the fishery.
do not know of any whales being
killed, but there were several that haC
great holes and sores on their backs.
Questioning the Indians about it,
was told that there was only one, tha
it had been there for many years, ant
that it once attacked an Indian cano
and with one stroke of the great clul
mashed the canoe into splinters, killing
and drowning several of it's occupants
