A Peoria man who has been all
over that city collecting bills reports
that the only people he found who
are complaining of the financial sit
uation are the men who never have
any money anyway, concerning whom
he is quoted in the Herald-Tran-
scrip as saying:
To them the present coagulated
currency is Godsend. 1t gives them
a new excuse and a better one than
they ordinarily have. Mark what |
say, and watch the fellows who talk
financial stringency. See If they
aren't the follows who three months
ago put you off because of summer
dullness and six months ago because
of the prospective poor corn crop.

The activity and earnestness OF the
Socialists Of the Northwest are indi.
Gated by plans being formed by the
recently Incorporated Adrian Irriga-
ton company OF the state of Wash
ington. This company, which is or
ganized by several Of the prominent
Socialists Of the state, has secured
5000 acres of land near the Grand
Coulee, west of Spokane This prop
erty includes water rights from five
lakes. Here 1t Is proposed to build a
model town. JBvery public utility will
be owned by the municipality. While
the individual rights of every man
will be respected and acknowledged,
the community will profit by a CO.
operating scheme, and the labor will
be conducted on such large scale that
the cost or production will fall lightly
on each person. The promoters say
they will have no policemen to bother
the people, as there will be only
good people there. There will be
no graft and no grafters.

the article from the Owatonna,
(Minn.) Journal-Chronicle, repro
duced elsewhere, giving asynopsis OF
the lecture by Mr.. Gilbert McClurg,

joying the benefits of such boun-
teous natural resources and genial

complaint to this apparently eXpen-
