ROOSEVELT ON SOCIALISM.

President Roosevelt is not much on
Socialism as vide the following sy-
nopsis OF an address delivered at the
dedication to hero Of the early In
dian wars at Oyster Bay Saturday:
There can be no grosser example
OF privilege than that set before us
as an ideal by certain Socialistic writ
ters-the ideal that every man shall
put into the common fund what he
can, which would mean what he chose,
and should take out of 1t whatever
he wanted, In other words, this the
ory is that the man who 10 vicious,
foolish. drag on the whole commu-
nifty, who contributes less than his
share to the common good. should take
earned; that he shall roo -nrl afeig9t
Dor OF what that neighbor has earned
This particular Socialistic ideal
would be to enthrone privilege in one
of Its crudest. grossest, most dishonest
for the most harmful, and most un-
just forms. Equality OF opportunity
to render service-yes, will do ev-
erything / can to bring 1t about.
Equality Of reward-no, unless there is
also equality of service. II the serv-
Ice Is equal. let the reward be equal;
but let the reward depend on the serv-
Ice; and mankind being composed as
It Is. there will be inequality of service
for long time to come. no matter how
great the opportunity may be, and
just 80 long as there is inequality OF
service. 1t La eminently desirable that
there should be inequality of reward"

HEARST SAYS BRYAN IS .HAs
BEEN"

The New York Examiner, the after
noon edition of the Journal, Hearst S
New York papers, thus refers to Bry-
an and his platform:
For the third time. William ].
Bryan has been nominated by the
Democratic party--or rather by that
fragment of former efficiency which
Is called the Democratic party. We
have lost confidence In the Demo
cratic party, as missions of other Dem
ocrats have done. We cannot see In
this nomination any hope.
we are bound to add, with regret,
that we have lost confidence also in
William ]. Bryan, who by well-man-
ipulated boss-ship has compelled this
nomination.
No reliance can be placed on the
Democratic platform or on Bryans
declarations. The Democratic plat
form declares for one set OF princi.
pies at one election and for an entire
ly different set at the next election.
while Bryan is apparently without per-
manent principle. or sincere convic-
ton, or even honest attitude.
"A note is a promise to pay. 1t is
valuable according to who makes II.
and who indorses 1t. A platform is
promise to perform and a platform
made by the Democratic party and In
dorsed by Mr.. Bryan is not worth the
paper II is written on"

Most of the state officers make only
biennial reports. but the secretary OF
the state has made a semi-annual re-
port Of date July list. which shows
total receipts In his department for the
six months to June, 1908, OF $101,.
900.02. OF this amount Interpretations
contributed s39.020.85 and the annual
license tax for corporations (the flat
ax'l, $37,3o9.77. This marks record
In the history of the state. The In.
creased amount collected is largely
due TO the activity Of the secretary OF
state in carrying out the law strictly,
and compelling the corporations to
contribute their legal share Of the
revenues to the state. All the depart.
ments Of the state government are
now conducted on u strictly business
basis. and Of these not the least eff.
cient Is that presided over by the

Allison, Colo, July 13, 1908.
Sunday, July II, will long be re-

the history of Allison, marking as it
does, with auspicious ceremony, the

and impressively carried out by the
local pastor. Rev. David w. Ferry of
bayneld and Allison circuit, assisted
ny brothers Davenport and Mcleod of
rueDlo. The visiting ministers de-
hvereo very eloquent and instructive
addresses which cannot fail to be of
vas. Importance to the newly organ
lzed church workers, and the marked
interest shown gave evidence Of sin
cere appreciation on the part of the
audience. The Rev. DIR. Ferry was
highly commended on the successfuI
outcome OF his organization efforts
and praised for his zeal In behalf or
the interests OF his newly orxanized

SO much attention is given to vain
