HOW ABOUT THE IDLE?
Debs Says Taft and Bryan Give No
Satisfactory Answer.

davenport, Ia, Sept. 1.-The Social
list special train bearing Eugene, V.
Debs, candidate for the presidency on
the Socialist ticket, James H. Brewer.
Socialist candidate for governor of IL
linois and other prominent Socialists
on transcontinental campaign tour
arrived here after days run from
Chicago interrupted by stops at Joliet
Ottawa and Spring Valley where Debs
and Brewer made rear platform
speeches
Last night Debs made the first i'm
portant address of his campaign at
Turner opera house in this city. He
said:
THE capitalist system has again
broken down. Industry has again
been partially paralyzed, millions of
people are idle. The capitalists can
no longer manage industry under the
present system. This is becoming so
apparent that even the capitalists
themselves are alarmed.
THE. panic of 1893 came under
Democratic administration. The panic
Of 1907 under Republican adnlinistra-
ton. There is today a larger number
of unemployed than ever before in
the, history Of the country President
Yoakum of the Rock Island railroad
system has made a statement within
the last week that 1901 railroad
men, or one out of every four are idle;

tariff the country ever knew.
when we ask Mr.. Taft, Republican
candidate what the starving workers
are to do. he was candid enough to
say, God knows Implying that he
does not know. =
"Mr. Bryan has nothing to saw on
this extremely vital proposition Both
the Democratic and the Republican
platform are silent upon the burning
question Of the unemployed.
.sAlf systems of society have their
periods of birth and development de-
cline and death. The lords of zchattef
slavery flourished until so years ago.
Their rule was as absolute as is the
rule of the lords of wage slavery to-
day. Lincoln was a very undesirable
citizen half a century ago, when this
great issue was fought out. Today his
name is revered by the whole Ameri-
can people. 1t is thus that history
ceaselessly repeats Itself.
.'The pioneets in agitation against
Slavery fifty years ago We're known as
abolitionists. were denounced and per-
secuted. The pioneers of the present
agitation against wage slavery are So
cialists and the ruling class of the
present era, is as hostile to them as
the ruling class was to abolitionists in
times of Garrison, and Phillips. The
working class has entered the politi-
cal arena this year with its own party
upon its own platform, which declares
Against the wage system and in favor
of the social ownership of the modern
ma ehinery of productions so that all
shall have an opportunity to work the
year round. so that Industrial depres-
sion shall no longer doom millions to
suffering and want. In this land of IA

Plans for Encampment.

A Washington, d. G., report says
the war department has announced
its purpose to modify its plans for the
American lake encampment this year,
and instead of maneuvering on such
a grand scale as last season and the
summer previous, the maneuvers will
be more confined. That is to say,
more attention will be given to the
individual companies aud to the men
comprising these companies, aud less
to the general officers In command
The maneuvers Of the two past sea-
sons have been excellent practice tor
the commanders Of regiments aud
larger bodies of troops: this year the
majors, captains aud lieutenants will
have more individual work, and S,
will their men. This does not mean
that the work will be hard, but tha
the men and company and battalion
officers will receive more militia,
drill and instruction than heretofore
