campaign has been started, at least a

in this state.
Liberty Leagues.
The people of the state have been
presented with the extraordinary
spectacle of the Democratic or
ganization employing Socialist agi-
tators TO go over the state
and organize Democratic Liberty
Leagues. These Socialist organizers,
while constantly urging Socialist doc
trines and theories upon their hearers,
advise them to vote the Democratic
ticket, The Socialist politicians, who
must be given credit for considerable
foresight, believe that they are killing
two birds with one stone" By combi-
nation they are able to pour their doc
trines into Democratic ears at the ex-
pense of the Democratic state commit
tee, for that body is paying, at least, n
portion of the expenses OF the organiz-
ers of the Liberty Leagues,
The Socialists figure it out this way:
II the Democrats will accept their plat
form and nominate a radical anti-law
and order candidate. they will fuse
with the Democrats and secure large
campaign contributions, and II the
ticket is successful, number of the
state offices. 1t is understood that In

date, who is openly opposed to the an
archistic methods of the Socialists, they
Will put up candidate of their own,
| who, they hope, will profit materially
In the matter of votes from the Liberty
League movement, which they control.
In any event the Socialist politicians
have succeeded in entangling the DEM
ocratic leaders in nauseating combi-
nation that will drive thousands OF
, Democratic votes to the Republican
party. Reports from the organizers OF
these Liberty Leagues are far from en-
couraging. At first they appeared to be
making some impression upon the more
ignorant classes, but since the first
spasm has worn off, they find very little

10TH WEDDING
ANNIVERSARY

Mr.. and Mrs. Edward Morrill, of the
First ward were agreebly surprised
last evening by about twenty ladies
consisting OF neigEbors and friends,
who remembered that it was their
10th wedding anniversary. They not
only brought with them a useful
present, and an excellent lunch, con-
sisting Of cake and ice cream, but
they brought gooG cheer and good
fellowship and left with their host
and hostess many recollections which
cannot fail to yemiad them of each
occurring wedding anniversary. It
was just such meeting as does one
good to attend. 1t was breaking
loose from every day life and
served as strong reminder to Mr..
and irs. Morrill, that they have
many friends in this city, who are
willing and anxious to remind them
OF each and every wedding anniver-
sary for many years to come.
