There is quite difference between a

Official statistics show that in Boston
during 1903 more than 90 per cent of
the population were aided by public
authorities. In New York state Is per
cent of the population were in distress
during 1899 In Manhattan 10 per cent
of those who die are buried in the Pot
ters field. In times of prosperity
10000, 900 people out of 80, 900, 900 suffer
for want of food, clothes and shelter.
Most of them would willingly work and
produce these things. Why are they
idle? Because the machinery necessary
for modern production is privately
owned, and production carried on by
the capitalist owners for profit only.
With each Improvement in this machin-
cry its capacity increases and workers
are displaced. John Stuart Mills says:
1T is questionable if all the mechan-
ical inventions yet made have lighted
the days toll of any human being
So the discarded worker is idle, be-
cause production is carried on for profit
and not to allow the worker to pro-
duce clothes, shoes and food needed by
himself and his family. Socialists say
this is wrong. Production should not be
carried on, that few may gather pro-
fits, but in order to supply the wants
of the workers. To do this the workers
must own and operate the machinery
in cooperation. All who are willing to
work should be allowed to do so and to
obtain for themselves the full product
of their labor.
Poverty is a crime. Not crime of
the poor. Not particularly crime
of the rich. 1t is a crime for which
you and are responsible. We have in
our power to change the present capita
list system and to substitute cooper
ative system, which would abolish pow
e, ty, and its now unavoidable conse
ouences. OLAF OLESEN,

FOR4KER'S ACT LOGICAL.
Calling off of Conference No Sur
prise an WGshingtOn.
IFrom The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington May 13.-The action of Senator
Dick in calling off the proposed conference at
Columbus caused no surprise here. Senator For
sker's statement that he would not be bound by
any action Of the conference has been much dis
cussed in Washington to-day, and it is generally
regarded the natural and logical-step for Mr.
Foraker to take. in view of the events which led
up to it. Secretary Taft has preserved his GUS
tornary silence and his friends have not talked
for publication, but the view is held that Mr.
Forakers action was compelled by the news
from Ohio, which indicated that ii would be
impossible obtain his Endorsement even for
the Senatorship at the conference
It will be remembered that primarily, Senator
Foraker sent Senator Crane to Secretary Taft
10 urge on the Secretary the advsability Of a
compromise whereby Mr.. Foraker should exert
his influence TO obtain for Mr. Taft the support
Of the Ohio organization, and Mr.. Taft should
throw his influence to the support of Mr.. Foraker
in his efforts for reelection TO the Senate. Sec
retary Taft positively declined to be party to
sny such scheme Senator Foraker then de-
clared in favor Of a general primary TO deter
mine the choice OF the state for President. After
Nj Foraker had been in Ohio a short time the
organization. which was under his control. de
elared against the primary scheme. Early last
week George r. Cox declared himself in favor
of Taft for President, Foraker for Senator and
Harris for Governor. and Chairman Brown made
public statement to the effect that Mr.. Taft
was the logical candidate for the Presidency"
This was followed by Senator Dicks call for the
joint conference. at which il proposed to
pass a resolution in line with Mr.. Coxs state
ment. thus obtaining for Mr. Foraker's Sena-
toria campaign a share Of the impetus Of the
Taft movement. To this programme the Taft
forces We're unwilling TO accede not that they
opposed Mr.. Foraker's reelection TO the Senate
but because they held that 10 be contest which
should be fought out. its own merits and

Pittsburg May 13-The banking institutions

1t learned here to-day. Pittsburg-New York
financiers. headed by II. c. Frck. w Ellis Corey
and Charles NJ. Schwab were badly squeezed in
the slump in Wall Street between March IA and
90, ard had it not been for Pittsburg's quick
response to a cry for help there might have been
serious trouble. Leading bankers admit that
from $20,OOO.O0O to s250OO,OOO was rushed to
New York at this time to aid the Pittsburg
people, but it is understood that the real amount
much nearer S3O000,O00
II. C. Frick is said to have borrowed $4,000
600 at first and more afterward prom-

ton. At the time of the slump Pittsburg bank
tOld that unless they came to the rescue,
and quickly, there would be much trouble. The
Union Trust Company, of Pittsburg. in which
Senator Knox and H. G. Frick are leading drec-
tors is understood to have furnished much OF
the money. but no ore connected with the trust
company will say anything about it.
"Pttsburg caught very hard that New

six weeks. When he came to Pittsburg last he

himself took out Of Pittsburg to bolster up fail

Some supposedly rich men in Pfttsburg have
been badly in need of money that they have
allowed their Pittsburg properties to become de-
Inquent in taxes, finding that they save
perhaps > per cent a year in this way Under
Pittsburg laws only per cent is added TO the
amount of taxes delinquent for seventeen
months. Money costs at least per cent in
Pittsburg, and for the seventeen months the
total would be St5 per cent. So. by allowing the
properties to become delinquent. the owner saves
312 per cent in seventeen months the tax
money The item is not small now TO some
property owners as it would once have been.
